Name: Xi (Zee)

Age: ???

Sex: Female

Type: Nano

Descriptor: Arachnoid

Focus: Commands Swarms
Explain Focus: Xi has a fondness for any bug she sees.  Ever since her transformation into the arachnoid woman she is today, she's had an affinity for swarming creatures.  She speaks with them as well as dominate them to perform tasks and errands.

"I am an arachoid nano who commands swarms."

Appearance: Xi stands at 5ft 5in on six stick-like spider legs.  Her skin is a pale gray and appears sleek in bright light.  Her hair falls half-way down her back in a braid, smooth as silk.  Her lips and fingernails are a deeper gray than the rest of her skin, but the focal point of her face is her eyes.  Solid black, with eyelids the close vertically.  She most often dons orange robes -- tailors for her special figure -- that notate her respected rank as an Aeon Priest.

Backstory: Born in the Kingdom of Naravene, Xi grew up with a fascination with the Numenera.  She studied the relics of the past in her free time until her mother and only caretaker passed away at the beginning of Xi's adolescence.  With nothing left in her hometown for her, she set off to join the ranks of the Aeon Priests.  Her experience was typical, until it came time for her pilgrimage, where she became trapped in a long forgotten ruin for an uncountable number of days, with nothing to do but speak with the bugs that would fly in and out.  She was able to implore the help of a brood of sentient spiders that found their way to her, but only after being transformed into shape she takes now.
