Physical Description
Zephyre's features are small and fine - much like the birds she so admires, and everything about her is graceful. Except for her flaming red hair, which falls just past her shoulders and is dead straight and permanently wind-blown.
Her eyes are a dark gold, almost brown, which are always flashing with some strong emotion.
Her clothes are in the garb of most Inarta Women, with a black, tight fitting Vinati, which cuts across her midriff and has one long sleeve, so there is no risk in injuring herself while doing Archery, and a equally dark Bryda, which is unadorned except for a silver belt with glass trinkets (for luck) dangling from the hoops. There is also an elegant wrought silver and black leather Sontav for when she does Falconry.
Her Kestral, Serpha, died recently from a skirmish with a group of bandits, and Zephyre is still recovering from the loss of her beloved Gyrfalcon, which she had owned since she was 10.
Her hair used to be adorned with Serpha's feathers, but she had taken all ornaments out of her hair, as a way of paying tribute to her lost bird.
Character Concept
Zephyre's small frame would suggest that she is quiet and meek, but in actual fact she is the exact opposite. Her bearing is proud, as befitting her high rank and she isn't afraid to speak her mind. This trait is as much of a curse as it is a boon, as she can often upset many higher ranking officials with her biting remarks.
She is courageous and intelligent, but despite that, she can often be rash and hurry into things that should have been planned, which often can prove bad for everyone involved.
She is passionate about ideas and people that she feels an strong attachment towards, and isn't afraid to fight for the things that she believes in.
Her fighting style is not about strength and force, instead she uses a lighter than normal Talon Sword, and uses her speed and agility to overcome a larger enemy. Her hand to hand combat and swordfighting skills are not her strong point, however, and Zephyre usually tries to incapacitate foes with her longbow.
Character History
Zephyre comes from a poor family of Deks, and had lived in a nursery until the moment her life changed, forever.
When she was 10 on the way to the Glassblower that was teacher her his craft, Zephyre bumped into a Endral, upsetting the man's balance and sending him to the dusty ground.
The young girl thought that she was getting a thrashing as the Rider got to his feet and raised his hand, but instead of that, he drew back her hood and stared into her eyes, with their dark golden gleam, that signified that she had once been a Wind Eagle, in a past life.
He took her to his cave immediately, and told her about what Endral do, then asking if she would ever want to join them.
Of course, she agreed, and her training began.
At age 15, Zephyre was taken in to see a small black ball of fluff and feathers, along with a small group of other promising youths.
The boys began to fight between each other, proving their strength to the Wind Eagle, and the girls showed trinkets that they had made, proving their skill.
Zephyre did none of these things, and has since ignored every bird that came her way, even if the bird looks her way. It is almost as if she is waiting for something, or someone..
