Vanadis
“We travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls.”
― Anaïs Nin

Physical Appearance:
Vanadis is the picture of a Konti woman. Average in height, she is slim in build with ivory-spun tresses that fall just below her shoulders, though she sometimes hastily fashions it into a bun to avoid it getting in the way of her work. Her healthily tanned but pale skin is characterized by opalescent scales that spiral up her legs and adorn her back, arms, shoulders, the sides of her torso and fade into her cheekbones. Her features are mixture of soft and sharp, with gently slanted oval eyes framed by thick lashed, a softly rounded nose and sharply pointed, but small lips. Her irises are the color of pale amethyst. She has a beauty to her like the morning frost of a new snow fall.

When out and about on a leisure excursion, she dresses to impress and takes time with her hair and makeup, often braiding or styling it depending on the event.

On her chest, directly over her sternum, Vanadis' Healing mark manifests as a twisting sigil in shimmering opal.

Personality:
Unlike her sisters, Vanadis is not so much shy and nurturing, but instead displaying a fierce dedication and commitment that affords her an efficiency that many people have come to expect from her. That is not to say that she cannot be charismatic and hospitable, but when it comes to her work as a doctor and a healer, she cuts away any distractions, almost driven by a tunnel-vision that consumes her attention in the moment.

When she escapes from the toils of her job, Vanadis can be warm, despite her often icy appearance, and she can be found in a tavern or library, enjoying the taste of a good liquor or the wonders of an engrossing book. Her outfits are always practical, either for a hunt, or for healing.

History:
Vanadis was born to a Konti woman named Syr, a Suvai fighter and healer, and her mate, a Drykas man named Haren Evenwing who was a man escaped from the bonds of slavery in Ravok, formerly a man of the Watch by trade but holding his own in the savage wilds. They met on their travels and fell in love, and on their journeys they found themselves in the heart of Zeltiva, where there, Vanadain found she was with child. It was there where Vanadis was born and there where she was raised for the first fifteen years of her life. When she became old enough, the family traveled with the help of a caravan back to Haren's ancestral home, Endrykas, where Syr's Call had originally planned to take her. In the Evenwing pavilion they remained, and Vanadis grew into a curious young child who laughed and sang along with her father's tales and was taught in his ways of archery.

Marked with Rak'keli, Syr knew her daughter would grow into a skilled healer, and, in the absence of an Opal Order, she approached the Opal Clan, in the hopes that they would take her on as an apprentice. After several years, Vanadis was sent by her mother to Mura, in the hopes that her skills in medicine would be honed and crafted further among her sisters and the Opal Order itself. A decade passed and when when Vanadis turned 32, she returned to Endrykas, to a lone father, who told her that in her absence, her mother had deigned to return to Mura for a visit, but had since disappeared and the pavilion, already dwindling from the catastrophes that struck the Drykas in the years prior, was left with only three known survivors left.

The absence of her mother and family had struck Vanadis acutely, and she dove into her work in an effort to ignore her grief. When Vanadis turned 34, her father, having aged quickly, set out of Endrykas on a journey she knew he would not come back from: to find her mother.
