[b]Appearance[/b] – Silk stands at approximately 5ft9 in height and has a slender, athletic build that belies her natural agility. Like most Taguel her skin has a dark, tanned complexion. Her hair is a dusty blonde hue that reaches down to just below her shoulders in length, framing her face on either side. Her eyes are light brown in colour and possess a cat like quality that always makes her look mischievous. Atop her head are large fox like ears that are the same colour as her hair. With the exception of her eyes and ears she possesses no other indicators that are commonly associated with Taguel, such as fur and tails.

[b]Personality[/b] – Silk is a confident, silver tongued young woman with dexterous fingers and a mischievous, playful temperament that makes her a threat to anyone with too much gold on their person. For her the laws of the human dominated world are merely social guidelines, guidelines that she regularly breaks with scant regard. Silk is a thief after all. However despite being an outlaw she is not without her own personal code of conduct and morals, it is simply that her morals are far more flexible than most, especially when it comes to herself. Silk is also very much aware that many humans find her somewhat exotic and attractive and has no qualms about exploiting either to her advantage.

The one that she adheres too more strict than any other is that she will not, under any circumstance, kill in cold blood. She may be a thief but she is no assassin or common thug. To others the distinction may not seem like much but to her it is a point of pride. With that said Silk is no pacifist and will not hesitate to defend herself if threatened, even if that means killing them. Though somewhat at odds with her obviously criminal nature Silk will not watch idly by if someone is in obvious distress. Not if she can help. Especially if it might earn her a reward. 

[b]Biography[/b] – Growing up Silk was something of an enigma in her village, the orphaned daughter of a deceased Taguel father and an absent human mother, abandoned on the steps of a church orphanage when she was still just a baby. A note was left explaining the circumstances of her birth, a note that was long since lost by the time that she would have been old enough to read it. Strangely enough no one could seem to remember exactly what it had said. 

As a orphan in a land often torn by war and conflict it would come as no surprise to learn that Silk enjoyed a less than idyllic childhood, especially as the only non human in a human village. They did not particularly mistreat her, though many were wary of her heritage. It was to be expected of course, most of them had never even seen a Taguel before and everything that they knew was based on rumour. Silk herself was not much better in that regard, having never met any of her own kind before either. What little she did know she had gleaned from books in the church library. 

As a result puberty had been an especially rough time for her growing up with no female Taguel to talk to about the changes that were happening to her and the awakening of certain instincts and impulses that would often lead to irrational and temperamental, even violent behaviour. But when she arrived on the other side, as it were, she was a changed person. Silk found herself imbued with a sense of wanderlust and confidence that had not been there before. The increased size of her chest didn't hurt either. 

With no family bonds to hold her back she left the village behind and started journeying the continent, a free spirit moving as she pleased. For the most part anyway. There was always the occasional torch and pitchforks incident, especially when people saw her in her beast form. That was always exhilarating. 

As to why she became a thief the truth of the matter is that she was not burdened with a great deal of options as a young female half breed, especially since she had no desire to join the army in its war against Plegia and its so called cult of the Fell Dragon Grima. In fact her skills are of certain renown in underworld circles, leading to no shortage of offers for her abilities. However the majority of these offers have gone unheeded. Still, there are certain cities were she will be arrested on sight, but to Silk that only makes the world more interesting.
