description

Eleret is a diminutive woman, slender of frame, with a soft-seeming round face and a general doll-like appearance overall. Her pale blonde hair is trimmed to just past her shoulders, sometimes tied back and sometimes left loose. Clear green eyes, touched with a hint of blue, typically regard the world with warmth and curiosity. At first glance, Eleret's features give the appearance of youth -- she could pass for a human girl of perhaps 14, were it not for the webbing and glimmers of pearlescent scales in soft greens and blues which declare her Konti nature. The back of her left hand bears a stylized lily which shimmers in shades of deep sea-green and teal, stem beginning at her wrist and the single blossom unfurling just above the first two knuckles.

concept

Eleret is quiet and mild-mannered, oftentimes polite almost to a fault. Like most of her race, she avoids confrontation where she can, but not to extremes; there's a firm will beneath her surface. Eleret's interests are predominantly scholarly and artistic, though hers are not sedentary habits; she particularly enjoys swimming.

racial abilities

water-breathing, swimming

Konti gift: Eleret senses the moods of people around her as scents, either singly or in combination. She can pick up the general tone of either an individual or a crowd. The more intense the mood, the stronger the scent she perceives; similarly, the more people in a group who share the same mood, the stronger the scent. Though the aromas she perceives are not 'real' as such, they behave like real scents do in diffusion and the potential to be carried or dispersed by wind.

divination

gnosis of Avalis
rank 1

Lily mark on left hand, colored deep sea-green and teal, beginning at her wrist and with a single blossom unfurling just above the first two knuckles.

Marked followers of Avalis bear the first bloom of the Seer’s Lily and can delve into the Chavena at will seeking individual chavi and reading the past. Their sight at this level is rough. It can be unpredictable and hit-or-miss, but if they can indeed find the chavi they are looking for and read of its past, they have no problems coming up with answers to questions that might be presented to them. At this level, individuals cannot read the present or the future. There is also very little danger of mental illness or the seers becoming lost in the Chavena.
