[Lumara]

Torn between the two cultures of her mother and fatherComplicated at the best of times, Lumara had a conflicting childhood and an even stickier adolescence. Caught between her overprotective mother and a father she never had the chance to know. Fearing the influence her Human mate was having on Lumara as a child. O'Scurta sent her father away before any more damage could be done. But the bond was already formed and it took years for Lumara to get over the betrayal. Despite having forgiven her mother, Lumara would never forget. And fled Mura at a young age to find her father in Ravok. There the two reunited and spent many years as father and daughter. Before Lumara eventually decided to return home, if only to visit. Life up to this point has been a balancing act, between the world of Man and Konti. An act that has only become more difficult with the adddition of her two younger sisters.. Lumara learned to conceal her true feelings and identity for her own social and physical survival. RavokWhile amongst Human's and especially in cities still practicing slavery. Lumara covers herself up from head to toe in long colorful garments to cover her pale skin and glimmering scales. Often mimicking the Benshira fashion, a people she is particularity fond of. Amongst her peers, her clothes become far more somber, some might say elegant or traditional. , with it's ever present threat of slavery. And Mura with it's fragile serenity easily shattered by any flare of emotion.Lumara grew up much more rambunctious than other girls her age. It's unknown whether or not her realationship with her Human father had tainted her. But She was often excluded and seen more as an outsider than a true native of Mura. Quickly she learned to control any emotions that would trigger the senses of the Konti around her. Because of this traveling has became her life's work. Obsessively looking for a place she could breathe easy and call her own. This search has taken her from Northern Sylira to the Eastern jagged coasts of Kalea. Down to the south of Falyndar where the peaceful CharodaeCharbosa, home to the only other amphibious race in Mizahar, was a natural goal for Lumara. From the books and scrolls she had read as a child, it sounded utterly peaceful, and better yet alien. Sharing the same interest in glasswork, Lumara quickly became friends with a Charoda named Dlo'Ki. And it wasn't long before they traveled the ocean floors together. lay. Mercantilism came naturally to the Konti. Selling off anything she scavenged along the road or created in a forge.Very few outlets exist for any kind of self expression. But one of them, perhaps the only one that matters, is the art of glass. A gift from her mother, but one honed by her father. Lumara has poured all of her unspoken repressed emotions into molten glass. Crafting pieces from her imagination or the desires of others. Never following the same pattern, her artwork can seem at times, a bit chaotic but nonetheless beautiful. All of the grace and delicacy she lacks in life is translated into her work. Giving each piece a fragile and wistful appearance.. With a few wares bought from others like her. Whatever she needed to do to get by. Anything to keep her moving.
