[hider=Rahele] [center][h2]Rahele Modiri[/h2][/center] [center][i]"The true warning of the classic tale of the good witch misjudged by an ignorant town is about being too generous in a world of greed"[/i][/center] [hr] [b][u]Nicknames:[/u][/b] The silver snake, The witch of mordiri. [b][u]Race: Human[/u][/b] [b][u]Gender: Female[/u][/b] [b][u]Age:[/u][/b] 17 [b][u]Appearance:[/u][/b] Rahele has tanned skin and stands at around five feet tall, with an average build and a face that doesn't have any strong features, often described as forgettable when seen from a neutral viewpoint. Her hair is no longer a natural brown but a shining silver color, same with her eyes, which she changes on a whim with Alteration. The clothes she wears are also typically Alternation charged, usually made from simples outfits made fancy and ethereal looking by the use of magic. (Couldn't quite find a pic for the overall style, maybe something [url=https://i.imgur.com/DT5GUgN.jpg]like this[/url]) [b][u]Personality:[/u][/b] A go-getter without ambition, seeking opportunities merely because doing good means you are not doing poorly, Rahele has given up on the world but not on living. Her childhood made it so she did not grow a sense of empathy, she assumes all others are out there only fighting for themselves and has trouble trusting anyone. Yet, she is a bit sympathetic, even if she doesn't notice it, she had always been more lenient towards the worse off families that asked for her help. She does her best to avoid creating unneeded rivalries, controlling her words to avoid bragging, harshness and other confrontational behavior, yet, is not exactly someone approachable. She is legitimately curious about magic and finds joy in discovering new spells or techniques. [b][u]Biography:[/u][/b] Rahele was born in the poor area of Mordiri, a city from a nation near Alsijan. Her parents were honest people who tried their best, which was sadly never enough to guarantee a good life for themselves or their children. It did not take too long until Rahele and her siblings were on their own against the ruthlessness of the world and soon they would break away, each trying to survive on their own. Rahele's first experience with magic came by what she described as an accident, yet others might refer to it as deceit. Modiri had a low magic user population, perfect ground for charlatans, one of such was a fortune teller who had hired Rahele as a general servant and as someone to keep a watch on the shop while she was out. During one of the watches, a person came in with bad a cough and asked if they could help with it, the proper answer was no, but since she was about to starve through the week if she did not get some extra coin Rahele accepted to help and did some meaningless rituals. Then two days after the man comes back, cough gone, and asks her to do the same thing to a cousin of his which had a bad fever. She had learned the basics of Animancy healing without knowing, she quickly learned she could not deal with serious sickness but could act on the smaller inconveniences, of course, the people being healed did not need to know that when discussing prices. Then she noticed the rats and pigeons who infested the town seemed to react to her in odd ways, so she started leading them away from granaries and homes (for a price), then she learned that if she held certain rocks while she slept at night by the morning they would gleam with light, so she started to sell such rocks. While this guaranteed her a basic living, she was curious about just what sorts of magic she could do, leading her to try every sort of magic she heard about, always failing... until it didn't. In one of her many experiments, she changed a red rose into a white rose, her first act of Alteration. Continuing to improve on the mysterious witch persona, she turned her hair silver white and made her clothes odd looking, her name becoming a much louder whisper on the region. For a few years, she had a good life, but she started to become aware it would not last. The town had already named her Silver Snake for the exorbitant pricing of her healing and she knew well many of her clients were not good people and that one day someone would take issue with her applying Alteration to the face of others without checking if they were wanted criminals or something. With this is in mind (and the notion that if she did not come to the guild, the guild would come to her) she decided to seek legitimate training in magic far away from Mordiri. [b][u]Affinities:[/u][/b] Animancy and Alteration [b][u]Craft:[/u][/b] Artifice [b][u]Magic:[/u][/b] So far Rahele has had no proper training in the arts, only learning spells from intuition and experimentation. She has a much easier time understanding Alteration than she does Animancy, despite the latter being the first sort of magic she discovered, she has a far larger repertoire of Alteration techniques, being able to change both the appearance and utility of what she alters. [b][u]Skills:[/u][/b] Living by herself has given her a good sense of cooking and food preservation. She developed some sense of disguising to travel around her town without being spotted. And, obviously, she has a lot of experience with bargaining. [b][u]Other:[/u][/b] Wants to make a roof out of glowing rocks. Fascinated with golems but so far incapable of making her own. [/hider]
