Cristina Varisat Appearance Race: Human Gender: Female Age: 22 Birthday: 89th Day of Summer, 492 AV Birthplace: Syliras Appearance: Cristina's features are soft and seemingly delicate. But it is her eyes that are a wash with colour and emotion. Her blue-green eyes burn with determination, sparkle with laughter and yet there is always a sadness not far from them that she can never seem to shake. It is Cristina's eyes that truly speak for her and it is something she has never been able to hide. Despite all this, Cristina adores company and usually found with others in some capacity. Her smile and laugh light up her face and she tries to do it as often as she can. She stands at 5' 4" with a lithe frame, honed from her use of dance in her Reimancy along with her recent past times of training to become a Knight. Her hair is an auburn brown and curls naturally, much to her annoyance a lot of the time. When out and about, she swings it over her shoulder, playing with it absently when daydreaming or thinking. Character Concept Loyal, intelligent and compassionate. Possibly the best three words to describe Cristina. She's an intelligent woman who is diligent in any task she under takes. This has led to a bit of perfectionism in her work. She is never quite happy with just scrapping by, however hard it may be. As such, she always puts her heart into anything she does, which can leave her open to be hurt if others are impressed. Cristina is friendly and outgoing but has a tendency to not let people get to close to her. She remains haunted by the loss of her parents but does her best to not let it show in daily life. But the shadow of her loss still lurks behind her eyes. Her nature tends to over power this though and she has learnt to deal with it over many years. This tends to be through music and dance where she can bare her soul without others knowing the exact story. Cristina wants to join the Syliran Knights. She wants to help protect others from the pain that she has experienced. Her strong morale compass, instilled in her by her Father seemed to point her in that direction. She truly believes she can make a difference. But she is also looking for purpose and a place she can call home again. Character History Cristina was born to a family of an elder brother and an elder sister. Their Father was a Syliran Knight and as such, her Borther also became one. Their Mother was a simple farmhand. Cristina grew up learning the art of Reimancy from a Mage named Kajor under the request of her Father and Mother. Kajor became a great mentor and life long friend for Cristina. With her Father away a lot of the time, he filled in the father figure role becoming almost like an uncle to the young girl. It was he who initiated her through the ritual when she was six. It was he who inspired her and drive her to greater things, instilling the drive that keeps her moving forward today. She lived free of trouble until she was nine when her father died. Attacked while on patrol by a group of Zith, only his partner survived. The loss of her Father led her to a dark place where she quickly harboured a hatred of Zith. It took Cristina hearing an instrument to pull her from her mourning. The violin spoke to her very soul in ways she hadn't felt before and she quickly took it up. Between learning the Violin and her Reimancy she became happy again. Studying in both, but she still focused on her Reimancy. She had a natural affinity to control the air around her and she enjoyed the sensations of it whipping around her. From there, she grew happy, although slightly recluse from others. Cristina has always had a hard time letting others in, despite her friendly nature. She had no close friends, other than her Siblings, but even her Brother she barely saw as he had a been a squire even before her Father died. Her elder sister was her closest friend but she had friends other than Cristina and soon moved to Syliras to follow her own dreams. Struck with wanderlust, she learnt to sail and travels aboard a merchant ship. It was during the Djed storms of 512 AV that they lost their Mother. She was working the fields outside of the city, despite insistence by her siblings and Cristina, their Mother stayed to help. However, the damage that the storm wrecked did not spare their Mother and she passed away fighting for her home. Seeing little else and believing she could make a difference, Cristina moved to Syliras, she began training with the weapons of the Knights away from the eyes of her Brother and Sister until she was ready to join the ranks as a Squire.
