Till human voices wake us, and we drown.”

She has blue eyes, reminders of her relationship with the sea. Her hair is very long and of a dark brown, getting almost black when it is wet. Naturally, her skin is tanned from an entire life under Syna’s hot rays. Swimming and fishing keeps her body in good shape. There is not one gram fat more than necessary, her muscles are sleek and her belly flat. Her fingers are long and handle ropes and heavy anchors just as well as quill and ink.

Decorating her skin are two tattoos that she acquired as part of the Svefra cultural heritage. One is a dolphin, the Pardisa of her pod, running down the length of her left shoulder and arm. The second one is her Tavan, the sea turtle which she respects and loves dearly. It lies at her belly, almost exactly between her hips. Both tattoos are painted in vivid colors and with great craftsmanship, painted on her skin by her dear brother.

Like most members of the Wavedancer pod, she is quieter and probably more sensitive than the average Svefra, resulting in occasional thinking sessions and musings about the sea, the world and their people. She perceives her surroundings very intensely – what is the sea, what is the sand to her and to the Svefra as a whole? Her main problem is that she often lacks the vocabulary to describe what she is thinking and feeling, often resulting in frustration. Because of that Lian, her brother, is very important to her – they play an eternal game in which she starts sentences and he has to find the appropriate ending, finishing the train of thought she begins.

The connection to her brother is the closest she has to any family member, and in fact to any living person as well. Lian is everything to her, they are always together and think and speak the same. She loves everything she can share with her brother, and tries hard not to let any event or person separate them.

She loves the sea, the free and unrestricted life their people live. Parties are a favorite pastime of hers, although she can’t stand too much partying and being merry without some quiet time in between. Her family, her pod and her people are things to be proud of, as well as their rich culture and strength that comes with their numbers and close-knit pod structure.

As a result, she loves and worships Laviku as the father of their race and the personification of the waters she lives in. He is the sea, He is the water and fish and coral reefs, but He is also the little islands and beaches and caves. Laviku is all around them, and the belief is firmly etched into her heart, strengthening her bond with Him every time she thinks, speaks or does something in His reverence. However, although Laviku is her primary religion, she does know of other deities and is able to respect them to a certain degree.

Loves: Her brother. The family, the people. The sea, animals, food, the sun. Poetry, stories. Adventures, parties, love.
Hates: Not being with her brother. Those who are not family. Isolation, hunger, boredom, grudges.

Twins were born and have stuck together ever since their birth. Names that were spoken almost identical marked at an early age that the two belonged together. They did everything together, played the same games, wore the same clothes – as much as it was possible for those of different gender – and moved, spoke in a similar way. They needed the presence of the other just as they needed fresh air and the sea. Physical contact was not more and not less than another means to be united. The mentioning, even the thought of separation was a taboo to them. And so they grew up, depending on each other and living through each other.

Surprisingly enough to all around them, the twins claimed the same species as their Tavans. It was a natural consequence that, when old enough, they acquired a Casinor together and have shared it ever since.

Lian Wavedancer
He is her beloved brother, the one that is as close to her as nobody else. They live on the same Casinor, share all of their possessions and have no secrets from each other. Lian is also the one who completes the sentences when Lier doesn’t find the right words and has developed some skill in collecting words he can support his sister with. He is equally fascinated with the sea and world around them. The only skill he does not share with his sister is tattooing. Although Lier does not like the fact that it separates them, she finds it comforting to be tattooed by him because it tightens their bond. His Tavan is a sea turtle named Amneon.
Skills: Tattooing 10, Sailing 10, Swimming 10

ImageEmanon
Emanon is Lier’s Tavan, a sea turtle. She and Amneon are often together and follow the twins’ Casinor around the Suvan Sea. She is lazy, laid back and enjoys lying at the ocean floor. Swimming with Emanon is Lier’s greatest joy and a very special bond connects her with the sea turtle. Emanon’s behavior often inspires Lier’s trains of thought, and her quiet decisiveness helps if Lier hesitates. Also, Lier knows that her brother shares the same bond with his Tavan which makes it even more precious. She is never alone, either with her brother, her Tavan, or both.
