'''''Physical Characteristics and Dress''''' | |||
Stunningly - to some disturbingly - beautiful, Rali'vinee is covered in deep green scales, smooth to the touch. Elvenly slender, much of her hidden body is mysteriously tattooed and she has deep scars at each of her shoulderblades. She wears daggers strapped to her right thigh and each knee-high boot and while often wears dresses for dates and performances, prefers short shorts and bare arms. | |||
Also notable are her exotically reptilian eyes. Imbedded in black, marbel-like irises are light-colored, vertically slitted pupils that narrow and open as she focuses. Lighting around her causes striking changes to the colors of her pupils which flash with her emotions. Her lashes are long and thick as well. | |||
'''''Background/Explanation''''' | |||
Rali'vinee has been a bit of a puzzle since turning up in [[Elysia]] filthy, feral and nearly starved. Some of the more patient Avlissians were able to piece together these bits: It is likely she was kidnapped and spent most of her life as a slave to [[Shaahesk]], who she is both extremely aggressive toward and fearful of. Further, it seems she comes from a family most loyal to Angadar, as she prays often to the god she vehemently calls "Angeldar" and claims, in broken Common, that he helped her escape the Shaahesk by hiding her when she ran away. | |||
'''''Common & Drangonari Language Development''''' | |||
Rali has a working understanding of most of the words spoken to her by other Drangonari, but does not have the ability to speak it well gramatically. This is likely due to being taken away from home at a very young age. She is learning to speak Common, however, using her bardic skills to remember and make sense of what she hears. She also pays very close attention to how others react to her. Being called "cute as a button," for instance, is something she is proud of; being called "insane," on the other hand, has made her angrily defensive of her inability to communicate well. | Rali has a working understanding of most of the words spoken to her by other Drangonari, but does not have the ability to speak it well gramatically.

'''''First Interactions With Peaceful Civilization''''' | |||
When she first arrived in Elysia, Rali was obviously in a state of trauma. Her hair was a nest of all manner of bugs, rat fur was clotted through her teeth and she communicated only by screaming her name over and over again. Fortunately, a kind Drangonari named [[PCs:Amion Ma%27fer|Amion Ma'fer]] found her and very likely saved her life. Coming upon her, he quickly realized she was contemplating trying to eat the [[Wemic]] called [[PCs:Seylek|Seylek]], so he gently led her away. He took her to the Leaping Stag and, after feeding her her fill of fish, bought her some armor and taught her to put it on and address others at a more comfortable volume. | When she first arrived in Elysia, Rali was obviously in a state of trauma.

'''''Everyday Life''''' | |||

'''''Nearly Two Decades After Her Arrival to Elysia:''''' | |||
Rali'vinee has grown dramatically over the last 18 years. Her understanding and use of Common has improved so that she is almost always understood, if still given an odd look on occasion. She has many friends and loves, holds position as the assistant to the [[Guild:BardicAcademyofVisimontium|Bardic Academy of Visimontium's]] Director, and finally has triumphed over her heartwrenching broken engagement to Ramiz Sii. Through her life's accomplishments and obstacles, and under the guidance of those closest to her heart, Rali has become a warm, intelligent, caring Free Spirt and Beloved Bard of Avlis. | |||
