Kara Half-elven Role: Yeoman Description: Qualinesti half-elf young-adult female Demeanor: Rash (6 of moons) Nature: Courageous (1 of swords) Reputation: Adventurer (Quests 6, Hand 4) Social Status: Tradesman (Wealth 4) Agility: 8X Dexterity: 7A Endurance: 6C Strength: 6B Reason: 7B(49) Perception: 6A Spirit: 5D Presence: 7C Melee weapon: Cutlass Missile weapon: Longbow Armor: Leather Shield: None Appearance: Kara is only slightly shorter than an average human and is a little more muscular than a lithe elfmaiden. She has radiant blonde hair that flows down past her shoulders. She's only in her late 70's, a child in elven years, but she looks like a young woman in her early twenties. She always has a mischievous on her face, and her blue eyes light up like the break of dawn. She tends to act rashly, and lives life with humor and friendship. Game Statistics: As a half-elf, Kara gets an automatic Trump bonus when using her bow to attack an enemy. However, she receives no Trump bonus for Presence actions involving elves. As a yeoman, Kara enjoys a Trump bonus for outdoor Reason or Perception actions to follow a path or creature's trail. Kara has acute eyesight and hearing. Kara also recieves an automatic Trump bonus when engaging in unarmed combat because of her background in martial arts. Due to a past traumatic experience with trolls, any action made against a troll is one degree more difficult. Kara also knows the school of pyromancy. Her favorite spell is called fire whip, which she uses when the cold steel of her cutlass isn't enough. Fire Whip Invocation: 4 1 minute Range: 1 Personal Area: 1 Individual Duration: 3 15 minutes Effect: 3 +9 Damage Total: 12 This spell creates a shimmering tongue of flame that resembles a whip. The whip can be made just about any length, but the spell costs one more point for every foot over 12 feet. The fire whip remains for 15 minutes but can be dispelled before the duration is up. The fire whip is treated as a normal weapon and is used in melee attacks normally. The fire whip can light susceptible objects on fire if the wielder makes a challenging Dexterity action. History: Kara was born from a loving marriage between an elven soldier and a human woman. Kara's mother died years ago in a troll attack. That attack has scarred her forever, leaving her with an innate fear of trolls. She left home at the age of 53, when she refused to join the Qualinesti army at her father's wish. She left Qualinesti, and came to Solace. There she explored the surrounding area, and became famous for her knowledge of the terrain. She became a guide, and her services were in high demand. She learned the school of pyromancy from frequent visits to the Academy of Sorcery, and her fame increased. Soon, however, she grew bored with her mercenary life. Her life changed forever when she met Alain Dargeth. Alain hired her to lead him to the lair of Ebony, a black dragon. Kara discovered that Ebony had destroyed Alain's life, and killed his lover, several years ago, and that Alain wanted to throw his life away on a suicidal attempt to gain vengeance. Kara helped Alain defeat Ebony, and the two fell in love. However, their newfound relationship began to crack when Kara realized that Alain had never let go of Aileen's, his former lover, death. Now, she must decide whether or not she wants to be with a man who closes off his heart. Still, as she is preoccupied with matters of the heart, the mysterious Obsidian Order closes its tight grip around the fates of the two lovers.
