Chiaja has the somber persona of one who knew peace and lost it, who had been born into a world of hardship where there was none before. She seems too delicate, too otherworldly to live a nomadic life of work and toil in the hot sun, with no respite from the circle of Syna and Leth. Fragile in the way that she should be placed on a pedestal, cared for and treated as if the tiniest tap could send her tumbling and have her break into pieces once more. She has the naivety of a young child and the curiosity of a cat, and her entire bearing is that of someone not from this time.

Some could say that she is wise, that the perceived frailty of her body is overcome by the intelligence and wit of a crow. She could seem aloof and detached as an Ethaefal, her mind split between current and past. Snatches of her past lives and her time in the divine realm are like that of a dream. When she is Chaktawe, her only memories spawn from the memories of the life she is now, of her most recent life before ascending to the godly realm she can no longer comprehend.

As Syna's reign is given to Leth, she is given a form of ethereal beauty. Delicate horns spiral from her temples in a swirling design, gently coloured in rays of moonlight. Her pale skin is lightly vermeil, shimmering as if covered in silver dust. Her skin is flawless, without even a spot dotting her form. Eyes are a dark cobalt, bordering black, while hair is long and often kept braided. There seems to be sadness in her smile, even if it isn't meant. She appears almost ageless in this form.

She clothes in pale dresses and heavy mantles of fur and feathers, oftentimes sleeping for most of Leth's half.

As Leth's reign is given to Syna, she is given the form of a Chaktawe. Pale skin is replaced by that of copper, dark to protect from the harsh sun. Her eyes are the colour of pitch, and a tattoo of a red crow finds itself on her neck. She has long eyelashes framing her face and unnaturally long legs. Hair is black with brown undertones, and is kept braided out of the way. Her toes are fully webbed, and her fingers are dotted with black.

Chiaja dresses in a limited variety of clothing. The colours are generally red, blue, and off white, although she doesn't limit herself. Her style is largely influenced by both Chaktawe and Eypharian dress.

Chiaja is very hush-hush about her history. It's told on a need-to-know basis, and people generally don't need to know. It's agreed upon that she came to Ahnatep recently after abandoning the Tatsuwaat tribe of Chaktawe, and has started to carve out her living in the underbelly of the alabaster city. None can really say how old she is or when she fell, and as she doesn't age, it could be impossible to tell. More often than not she'll use an alias, her most common being Mooneyes. Her earthbound form of Chaktawe is often hidden by morphing, where she'll use it to change her eye colour and hide the webbing between her toes. Rarely would she hide her Ethaefal form.

Name: Kassret
Race: Eypharian
Relation: Adopted Daughter
DOB: Fall 7th, 508AV
POB: Ahnatep
Skills:
Observation - 10
Botany - 10
Gardening - 10

Kassret, or Kass, is quiet, peering between her wavy black hair with too-green eyes. She can be bossy and sassy, but she doesn't often show sadness or anger. She has six arms, but she's often sucking on the thumb of at least one. She's generally calm and can seem almost aloof, at least for a four year old. She loves flowers, peacocks, and her stuffed camel Mamw. She was unfazed by witnessing a murder, despite the woman murdered being her half-sister. She likes order and peace, something that wasn't offered in her old home in the Pillars of Dust. She much prefers her new home with Chiaja, and there is potential that she's slowly forming an emotional attachment to the Ethaefal, something she hasn't done in a long time.

Name: Sakthet re Bisret
Race: Eypharian
Relation: Downstairs neighbor
DOB: Spring 4th, 465AV (47)
POB: Ahnatep
Skills:
Birdkeeping - 15
Gardening - 5
Cosmetology - 30

Sakthet, a middle-aged and too-kind woman, lives in the room underneath Chiaja. She dyes her hair red with henna, knows her way around the lotions, creams, and beauty world of Ahnatep, and she owns a fat peacock named Tw-Tw. She'll often watch Kassret when Chiaja is busy, and she shows no outward racism towards her daytime Chaktawe form, or her nighttime Ethaefal form. She's excellent with children, and both of hers have already grown up, leaving her mostly alone except for Tw-Tw and now Kassret and even Chiaja.
