AppearanceRace: Benshira
Gender: Female
Age: 14 years old
Birthday: 55th, Summer, 499av
Birthplace: In the desert surrounding Yahebah.
Appearance: Myrah is thin but strong, with very tanned skin which is a tad hard in places from working and playing in the hot sun and sand. Her eyes are typical of her race, but a little darker than normal, giving her an unusual look. Her hair is dark brown with a hint of red and is very sleek, and she stands at about 5'1" with a little room left to grow. Her face is slim and without blemish, and her pretty looks make her seem more frail than she is.
Character ConceptA somewhat naive girl, who is quiet and obedient, and much subdued by her parents and older siblings. However she feels free to let loose with the younger ones, and is happy and carefree. An excellent rider she has lofty dreams of marrying into one of the local, rich tents or going to live in Yahebah in the same circles as her relatives who live there, who are all very well off also, and spending her days riding and watching others do the work that she doesn't want to do. She hasn't much knowledge of anything outside her own life, and so believes fully in the fears and superstitions concerning other races and peoples. Because of her father's sucess as a trader of animals and his somewhat high status in the city and amongst his people, her and the rest of her siblings have been led to believe that such status is their birthright.
Character HistoryShe was born and raised in the hot desert, in a typical nomadic family specialising in the breeding of camels and desert horses. Her father boasts the toughest and best bred animals in the desert, a result of the harsh environment leaving only the fittest and strongest beasts. The same could almost be said for the people of her tent, who lose many weak children leaving only the strongest. Because of this, Myrah is one of seven siblings, and work was upon her as soon as she was able. Her life has so far been sheltered and quite privileged, although a hard worker as any of her other family members, she has never wanted for anything and as the daughter of the head of the tent is given a respected position. Although not as beautiful as her two older sisters and not as strong her older brother, she is none the less an important asset and expects to be married off into a respectable family. She is very naive in this respect, and assumes the world and her culture is just like the family she has grown up with.
LanguageFluent Language: Shiber.
Poor Language: A little Tawna, from interaction with the Chaktawne.
