Physical Description
You peer into the forest, looking back are chocolate brown eyes which reflect ageless knowledge and intellect. Why hadn't you noticed this massive beast? Slowly and carefully a 7' 4", 478 pound humanoid creature steps forward. She was standing right in front of you! Her coat shakes and shimmers, revealing the true nature of her fur. Coarse, light brown fur covers her whole body, save her face and upper torso. On the top of her large head, shoulders, and a small portion of her back the brown gains an orange tint. What isn't covered by fur, her skin, is a dark brown and almost black in color. It's obvious she truly is a child of nature.
Character Concept
Typical of most Jamoura, Trahla has a detached, patient, and almost grandmotherly feel to her. Having only one child to call her own, and never stepping foot out of the Spires she has spent a lot of time alone in her flower garden. She enjoys the company of her plants to those of the hasty short lived creatures which also reside in The Spires. Her garden is her sanctuary and the place she's most at peace.
Not to say she doesn't find pleasure in a decent conversation, savoring every bit of information and heritage the other has to offer. Most conversation she has though, she doesn't start. At first she will watch you, study you, until determining whether you are worth her time or not. This Jamoura is quite shy until she becomes comfortable enough with you. At that point expect no secrets.
Sometimes she can come off as apathetic but that isn't always the case. "Everything happens for a reason and to fight it is to fight fate." Religion flows deep in her veins. She prays often to many Gods and Goddess's. Eyris, Caiyha, Qalaya, and Lhex are among the most frequently praised. Like other Jamoura, no God or Goddess is mightier than Caiyha in her eyes. Caiyha is her life giver and her creator, to her Trahla owes everything.
Character History
She was raised on these words."Our species lived in the dirt. Ate insects and played in the mud. Technology was as advanced as using rocks to open things. Life was hard and frightening before Caiyha. Her soft hand guided us into the wisdom and intellect we all have today. Don't you ever forget that, Lala."
Trahla didn't have a particularly hard life and was taught early to respect nature and all that it gives you. In her younger years she spent a lot of time focusing on learning her past life. It was a long and grueling process of which she learned little. Becoming slightly miffed at the secrets so tightly locked, she turned to her favorite past time, gardening; deciding that past life searches weren't a priority.
There weren't many children her age, but what ones there were she usually served as a confidant or a diplomat. Even as a youngster she was disciplined and had the Jamouras trademark peaceful nature.
At one point this shut-in toyed with the idea of visiting Avanthal, but movement for a 450+ pound beast is very slow. Seeing the sights, having an adventure along the way, meeting new people in a strange land; all of this appealed to her. Visitors from said city always fascinated her with their stories of a frozen city whose goddess guards it with giant bears. But Trahla couldn't bear to spend that long away from her flowerbed. Flowers need a good amount of doting and care, you know. The allure of Avanthal is still rooted, perhaps one day....
Much of her life was spent reading, praying, meditating, and with plants. Nothing too interesting ever happened.
