[attr="class","about_1"]SKILLS

[attr="class","skinny_content"]

Magic: Magic book - Glamour (Adept) - the ability to change her appearance to look like another. As this is a spell rather than a power, the effects can last as long as she wishes since she doesn't have to actively use her magic to keep the illusion. Magic book - Air manipulation (Advanced) - allows her to throw out gusts of air toward her attackers, and levitate them off the ground or throw them a short distance. Magic book - Illusion casting (Novice) - She can create simple illusions on objects, animals, or people to make them appear to look different. It is another form of a glamour but cast on others.
[break][break]
Power(s): Teleport: (Advanced) She was born with a special power that allows her to create rifts in the veil which when entered will teleport herself and others to a different location. In order to use this power, she had to concentrate and know where it is that she wants to go, and have been there before. Exceptions are if she is linked in hand with another then she can create a rift to take them to a place that other person has been before. This ability takes a bigger toll on her than some others and creating rifts within hours of another will leave her very drained and unable to do anything else.
[break][break]
Combat: Duelist (novice), hand to hand combat (Adept)
[break][break]
Passive: Speed, agility
[break][break]
Misc: Advanced education, sewing, dance, reading and writing.

[attr="class","about_1"]FREEFORM HISTORY

[attr="class","skinny_content"]

Nymeria was born in Galeros, the fourth of four children, 1 older sister, and two older brothers. Their father was a well-known commander in Giralda’s military. Tatsu Liao had done well for himself in the military. Well enough that both girls would get an inheritance upon marriage. Life for Nymeria growing up was a dull bore, and she never had to make a decision because they were always made for her. The girl was very dependent on her family and fell into that cove of protection without a care or worry. She knew as much about life as what was told to her, and that was enough for the girl for the time being.[break][break]

Raised to be a proper and polite girl, Nymeria knew how to behave, but that didn't mean that she had too. Never had she outright embarrassed her family, but there were subtle things that she did, little tricks here and there that got the job done just the same. She could be very cold to the guest of her father's, and her use of sarcasm became something of a trademark. Worst of all was her reckless attitude, and the young teenager was known to put herself in dangerous situations without thought or care, especially when it came to training, it was almost as if she were trying to prove something or get herself killed.[break][break]

When she turned 16, Nymeria started to want more excitement and adventure in her life. She started taking private sword and bow lessons purely for sport. Magic became another interest of hers as others, some her age and others older in her circle were also magic casters. Air and or water magic was popular among those with the patience and skill to cast it. It wasn't easy to learn but with nothing better to do she had the time and the focus. [break][break]

At 18 and more mature, she took an interest in trade, mostly for those rare goods that most didn't have. She learned the business from her father and uncle and soon after she went on her first ship for a three-day trip.[break][break]

When she turned 19 while out at sea, her ship was attacked by pirates and taken down. The captain recognized her and he abducted her for revenge and ransom. Years ago Tatsu had taken on the pirate captain and his crew and sent many of them to Davy Jones locker. Nymeria was held captive in the captain's cabin with orders for no man to spoil her.
After a day and night, the pirate ship attacked a merchant ship that was much better armed than they thought. There was a massive battle and deaths on both ends.[break][break]

Nymeria made it out of the sinking ship on a tiny boat with noting to paddle with. She was lost at sea until a passing merchant ship rescued her.[break][break]

They were kind to her and offered to take her home after they finished their round. What she didn't know was they did business with pirates. There was an exchange to be made on the beach of Tor's Shoal for goods, but when they arrived the pirates decided they were only going to pay half of what they agreed and take all the goods. She saw something more sinister in their eyes and she stabbed one of the pirates. With little other choices, the merchants killed off the other two pirates to protect themselves and retreated from the beach. [break][break]

On their way to return her home, they were set upon by the pirate crew whose men they had killed. They managed to outrun their ship and make port in Cyn Dosa. The crew scattered on the island hoping to escape the pirates. For days the crew and Nymeria hid on the island before the pirates found them. One by one they caught them and took them back to their ship to be killed or sold as slaves.[break][break]

Nymeria had stayed hidden for most time, but after her crew were all caught, she had to venture back out to get food and then she was also captured. But she didn't go down easily and used her magic as best she could to fight them off. However, as a novice she couldn't hold them off for long. With the girl bound and gagged the pirates spoke of forcing untold horrors upon her gentle frame.
But it wasn't to be.[break][break]

For a second time, Nymeria was rescued, this time by a mage warrior. He was powerful and fast and did away with the men so quickly it seemed unreal. The warrior mage had noticed Nymeria' use of magic when she tried to fight off her captors. After a lengthy discussion, he offered to take her with him and train her to better use magic if she agreed to become his apprentice.
His name was Avallon, and he was a full blooded elf and was once apart of a elven sorcerer guild in Thisbē that only taught magic to other elves. Avallon believed that all races should be allowed to learn and use magic and he refused to turn away people with the aptitude to use magic. He left the guild and set out into the world to teach and some day start is own guild.
Nymeria agreed to join him and become his apprentice for this was the chance she had been waiting for. A chance at a life of adventure and excitement, and to become someone worth wild.
