Friends ★ and ★ Family Also listed on CS. Name: Kassret Race: Eypharian Relation: Adopted Daughter DOB: Fall 7th, 508AV POB: Ahnatep Skills: Observation - 10 Botany - 10 Gardening - 10 Kassret, or Kass, is quiet, peering between her wavy black hair with too-green eyes. She can be bossy and sassy, but she doesn't often show sadness or anger. She's generally calm and can seem almost aloof, at least for a four year old. She loves flowers, peacocks, and her stuffed camel Mamw. She was unfazed by witnessing a murder, despite the woman murdered being her half-sister. She likes order and peace, something that wasn't offered in her old home in the Pillars of Dust. She much prefers her new home with Chiaja, and there is potential that she's slowly forming an emotional attachment to the Ethaefal, something she hasn't done in a long time.

Character ★ Interview General Information : 1. What is your Name? Chiaja. Or Chiaja the Shadowed, if you want to be Chaktawe about it. 2. Do you go by a nickname or pet name? Mooneyes. Pyxis. Kass calls me 'Chia'. Or Muna. It really bothers me when she calls me Muna. 3. How old are you? Does it really matter? I am ageless. 4. What is your height? Both day and night I'm six foot even. 5. What is your weight? Well, that would depend on what time of day it was, wouldn't it. Aesthetics : 1. Describe yourself as you see yourself. I am a fallen star, fit to be tied into the sky with Zintila's creed. 2. Describe yourself as others typically see you. A Chaktawe can't be graceful, but I am. Copper skin and black hair in the day, exotic and too-fragile during the night. I'm not fragile. 3. What is your favorite body feature? My hair. Or my horns. Or my legs or my hands. Can't I count them all? 4. How physically fit are you? Is that a trick question? For twelve years I lived the nomadic life of a Chaktawe, trudging along hot sand with the best of them, and you ask me how 'fit' I am? 5. How do you typically dress and what is your style? I am Star and I am Moon and I am Crow and I am Gold. Does that explain it? No? I am my own, then, with the startling combination of Chaktawe, Eypharian, and whatever fits. Family : 1. Who are your parents and what are they like? You're ridiculous. 2. Do you have any brothers or sisters? Kalesse is my blood-sister. 3. What is your extended family like? Pah. 4. Do you consider close friends as important or more/less important than family? My close friend is my family. 5. Do you treat animals like family? Maybe a crow, but that's only because the Chaktawe have influenced me too much. Location : 1. Where were you born? In the sea foam. 2. Where do you live now? In the dust, Ahnatep. 3. If you could live anywhere in Mizahar where would that be? Nothing I would like is in Mizahar. 4. Do you have a favorite place to vacation or spend leisure time? Red Cliffs. A pity I was found by a Tatsuwaat girl. 5. Where do you fear to be? Where I am now. Traits : 1. Do you have any physical weaknesses (disease, scars, and missing limbs?) [Scoff.] You're silly. 2. Are you right handed or left handed? Right, if I ever learned how to write. 3. What languages do you speak? What do you sound like? Do you have an accent? Common. Tawna. Arumenic. I sound like a filthy mix of a Chaktawe mixed with the old silk of an Eypharian. 4. Do you have any odd mannerisms, annoying habits, or other defining characteristics? I petching change forms like the night sky at sunrise and sunset. Defining enough? 5. Do you have (or want to get) any tattoos or piercing? Why do you have them (or will get them) ? Day form has this ridiculous red crow tattoo, on my neck. Of all the places it could be. Occupations : 1. What is your occupation? Dark. 2. Do you like/dislike your work? Why? It works. I like secrets, and information. 3. If you could be anything you wanted to, what would you be? A Jackal. Or Hawk. Fox? 4. What occupation do you admire the most? Why? I don't admire the Jackals, if that's what you're asking. But I'd rise up in the ranks of society better than trying any other way. I wasn't born noble. I was born in a bed of petching sea foam. 5. What occupation do you lest like? Why? Duskers. Scorpions. Larks. They're just gross, dust-eating professions that take a pinch of skill in being sleazy. Childhood : 1. What sort of child were you? I was never a child. But right after I fell, I was naive and quiet and gentle and shy and just like a child. And then the childish façade stood while I became who I am now. 2. What is your favorite memory from childhood? Irrelevant. I was never a child. 3. What is your worst memory from childhood? Really. 4. What sort of relationship did you have with your parents? I don't think you're getting the point. 5. Who was your most influential rolemodel? Kalesse. Leth. Eywaat. Kalesse. Education : 1. What sort of education do you have? A better one than most of the Chaktawe. I can read a little bit. 2. Do you like/dislike learning? The former. 3. Where or how did you learn most of your skills/abilities? Time. 4. How do you learn best? Doing? Watching? Maybe both. 5. What are your educational goals for the future? I want to improve my Arumenic and Common, learn to write in both, learn more languages. I want to be better. Relationships : 1. Do you form close bonds with people? Why? Why not? Not really. I'm not one to take the reins. 2. Do you trust people easily? If not, why not? Why should I? I was practically raised by the incredibly superstitious Chaktawe who trust nothing but the crows and the sand on their shoes. 3. Do you consider yourself straight, gay, bi, or something else? There's no reason for me to love anyone because they're just going to die anyways. 4. Have you ever been kissed? If so, describe the first time. I push people away before they can. 5. Have you ever had sex? If so, describe the first time. Meh. Drugs and Alcohol : 1. Have you ever been drunk? If so, describe your first time. No. 2. Do you like to drink on a regular basis?

What are your hobbies? Stargazing. 2. Do you like to read? The most I can read is children's books, so not really. 3. What annoys you more than anything else? Cloudy nights. 4. What do you find the most relaxing activity to do? Stargaze. 5. What kinds of things embarrass you? Why? All the racial slurs associated with the Chaktawe. "I'm not a Chaktawe!" I want to say, but no one really cares. Favorites : 1. What is your favorite color or colors? Purple, red. 2. What is your favorite time of day? Night. 3. What is the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen? The single moment I opened my eyes after I fell into the waves. Looking at all the bubbles illuminated by a red moon was incredible. Too bad I hate the beach. 4. What do you like to eat? What do you hate to eat? Well, I don't have to eat half the day. But I swear, if I have to eat jackal again... 5. What is your favorite type of weather? Does any kind scare you? I like clear nights. Hikzus can be scary, and sand gets everywhere. Even through shuttered windows! Outlook : 1. Are you optimistic or pessimistic? Realistic. 2. What are your religious views? Leth. Zintila. Maybe a bit of Syna on good days. 3. Would you be able to kill? If it came to that, I don't know what I'd do. 4. What are your views on sex? Heh. 5. What, in your opinion, makes a successful life? Some people will say happiness, some will say money. But it depends on what you mean by successful. Actions : 1. What is the worst and best thing you’ve ever done? 2. What is your greatest regret? 3. What is your best/worst memory? Worst?

Related ★ Poems 'Twas noontide of summer, And mid-time of night; And stars, in their orbits, Shone pale, thro' the light Of the brighter, cold moon, 'Mid planets her slaves, Herself in the Heavens, Her beam on the waves. I gazed awhile On her cold smile; Too cold- too cold for me- There pass'd, as a shroud, A fleecy cloud, And I turned away to thee, Proud Evening Star, In thy glory afar, And dearer thy beam shall be; For joy to my heart Is the proud part Thou bearest in Heaven at night, And more I admire Thy distant fire, Than that colder, lowly light. Evening Star -- Edgar Allen Poe ★ WILT thou suddenly enshroud thee, Who this moment wert so nigh? Heavy rising masses cloud thee, Thou art hidden from mine eye. Yet my sadness thou well knowest, Gleaming sweetly as a star! That I'm loved, 'tis thou that showest, Though my loved one may be far. Upward mount then! clearer, milder, Robed in splendour far more bright! Though my heart with grief throbs wilder, Fraught with rapture is the night! TO THE RISING FULL MOON. -- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
