She has unusually pale skin compared to many Vantha, which can also be attributed to her Inarta heritage that she knows very little about. ~ Character Concept Yuralria likes to make herself out to be a rebel. She despises rules and often will do what ever she can to break them, as long as she can avoid the consequences. She's cocky, confident, and impulsive. She doesn't respect her adoptive parents because they aren't her real mother and father, and she harbors a bitterness towards her real father for never coming back for her.

Character History Yuralria was conceived on a stormy fall night almost 17 years ago while her Vantha father was in Wind Reach selling carvings he had made. While he was there, he took a liking to a pretty female Dek. Yuralria's mother, used to being treated as a bed-warmer by many above her caste, accepted what she thought was inevitable as he began to talk and flirt with her. She quickly found her impressions were wrong, as he ended up staying with the young woman for quite some time, or rather, she stayed with him. The night they conceived Yuralria, there was a fierce blizzard raging in the mountains. One of the worst they'd seen in decades. Zulrav was in that storm, and noted what was happening in the small room that the visiting Vantha was occupying during his stay. The child would be marked. A few weeks later the young Dek found out she was with child, and the father decided to stay with her and raise the child in Wind Reach. As her pregnancy progressed she tried as hard as she could to hide it, she knew it would cause problems with some of the Avora who were rather fond of her, and sure enough, late in her pregnancy a blacksmith who had requested her many times found out about her condition and the traveler who was responsible, and he killed the Vantha carver. The young Dek feared for her life, and found a young Endal that she knew was friends with the Vantha carver and told him the story. The flew out of Wind Reach late that night, and in three days were in Avanthal. Whitevine hold gladly took the young mother in after she explained the circumstances, leaving out the fact that her lover had been killed, which surprised her, she wasn't used to hospitality of any sort. When she had her first meal in Avanthal, she was really surprised because she hadn't ever seen that much food, being a Dek. Her happiness didn't last long as she soon fell ill. She spent the last days of her pregnancy being cared for by the kind healers in Whitevine. Her labor was violent, and she died shortly after giving birth. She lived only long enough to see her child. She was born with a shock of dark red hair that would probably darken with age and a curious stormy birthmark shadowing her shoulders, along with the jewel bright eyes that belong to the Vantha. "Call her Yuralria" she said with her last breath. Yuralria grew up with a good family, but she was always bitter, not having any knowledge of her father. She thought he was alive somewhere, and that he either didn't want her, or was unable to get to her and take her back. She was inclined to think the former, and refused to think he was dead. Her mother surely would have told the holders if he had past, he was kin after all. This made her rebel against her adoptive family often, and as a consequence, she would often have run ins with the ice watch. She found out early on that she had a talent for dancing, and also that She could talk the winds, to a small degree. she knew somehow whether the wind was angry, or just being mischievous. This confused her in the early years of her life, until she was told by an ancient neighbor that it was a Gnosis mark from the storm god, Zulrav that shadowed her shoulders. She fit into the Vantha mold of being an entertainer, dancing while others wove beautiful tales and songs. She was about thirteen when a twisted old traveler decided he was going to try and take advantage of her after a show. He got as far as getting her into an alley when she kicked him in the groin and ran. It was then that she decided that she had to learn some method of self defense. Snooping around a weapon storage, she happened to come across a set of nicely tooled back-swords with hilts canted in the opposite direction as the blade. The blades were about thirty inches long with a ten inch false edge on the back. At the point on the false edge they were about 3 inches wide. There were carvings of forest animals, such as big cats and monkeys running down the length of the blade. Vantha work, no doubt. The hilts were wrapped in black leather and sitting next to them were plain black sheaths that appeared to fit the weapons. She grabbed both of them and walked out of the room, She had found her self defense. She trained with her weapons in secret for three years, find sparring partners throughout Avanthal, first with one sword and then with two as she got more comfortable with them. She would not be toyed with. She would be the one manipulating. Post Creation Yuralria has had a chance to meet her Diety and get a job she enjoys, and she now knows her history.
