Physical Description
Standing at 5”6, Ksenia is of average height and weighs about 140 pounds (although this has no interest to her). She has a powerful build from life on the seas and her Myrian inheritance. Ksenia has mocha coloured skin with turquoise blue eyes. Her hair is almost jet black, and brought back into a messy plait reaching all the way down her back. She is normally adorned with beads and necklaces but changes the design of these frequently.
. Ksenia is often dressed in light clothing, her mid-riff is often bare. Her modesty is more to appease others whilst travelling, her Svefra and Myrian inheritance means she is quite content working topless.
Character Concept
Ksenia is easy-going and free most of the time, enjoying humour and conversation. She likes people, enjoys company and is loyal to the Svefra. Despite this, Ksenia has an unpredictable temper and is not one to be crossed (She has never been told who her father is so finds her violent tendencies a little unnerving). A strong ability to look after herself, she’s active and trains in combat daily.
Never content to just sit and do nothing, she will often be working with her hands, if she has to be still for a while then she will often be seen making fishing nets for barter and her own use. With a mix of Myrian and Svefra, her work ethic is relentless and laziness is not tolerated and is also deeply suspicious of those outside the Svefra people. Her adventurous spirit leads to interesting encounters with many different races and cultures. With a natural curiosity and a knack for finding difficult situations, life is never boring for the young sailor. Whilst she never seriously pirates other boats, she will never say no to a challenge. Occasionally stubborn, Ksenia is not one to back down and used to dealing with storms.
Ksenia gains most of her heritage from the Svefra people but will never back down from a fight.
Character History
Ksenia’s Father was a Myrian warrior, but she has never met him. Her mother, one of the Svefra people. Ksenia learnt everything from the Svefra. More prone to violent outbursts and often taking her anger out on the wrong people, it was sometimes difficult for her to become close to others .Despite this she always got on well with her pod, and was always part of the family. Her pod travelled to the city of Syrilas and Ksenia departed buying her own small boat, wanting to travel for a while. Whilst she is happiest by the sea she also finds a strange affinity with hunting on the land. Ksenia was aware that she was mixed blood but does not know what she is crossed with, on her travels she hopes to find some clues to her inheritance. Her life is simple, and orientated around her boat. She needs little in the way of money now, catching most of her food, and will occasionally make money by bringing a passenger for short trips down the coast.

| LORE Making Fishing Nets: Ksenia was taught by her pod to create effective, strong nets for catching moderate quantities of fish at a time. She will use her catches to barter for money and occasionally will sell her nets at a good price. Freediving: With a passion for swimming, as a child it was hard to get Ksenia out of the water. She trained herself to hold her breath for longer and longer periods of time until eventually she could stay underwater for longer periods of time (up to 8 minutes if conditions are perfect.) |

| Svefra characters have a third option for a starting package available to them. Rather than a home or tent/horse package, they can indeed start with a small casinor and its equipment. Casinor : A small, personal ship no longer than 30 feet with a single cabin. More than twice the size of the average rowboat, this ship is capable of traversing inland seas and coastal areas though it is unequipped to travel on the open ocean. The most common personal ship found among the Svefra. These ships are often found employing heavy harpoons for defence. Much of the free space on the ship has been converted into living quarters thus cargo is limited to 500 lbs. While it may carry a number of passengers, these boats are designed for a single person spending extended periods at sea. Crew: 1, Passengers: 5 |
