Relationships (for reference only)
Family
Irit
Name: Irit of the Tempered SteelRelationship: MotherAge: ...Status: UnknownDescription: Impatient, furious, proud and no-nonsense are four of the most common words to describe Irit. She demands perfection from her daughters - something Rhu and Elke agreed Shiri only been able to achieve - and has no qualms about yelling at or hitting a disobedient or disagreeable child. As much as she cares for her children, Irit's discomfort with demonstrating this in even the smallest show of affection grew as her children aged. The girls accepted this, and a single nod from their mother means the world to each of them.
Asa
Name: Asa of the Broken SpearRelationship: FatherAge: ...Status: UnknownDescription: Ironically given their clans, Asa is a much, much gentler person than his wife. His mild nature and easy patience could make people underestimate him despite his size, and despite the fact that his dislike of violence stemmed more from not wanting to injure others than through cowardice. Asa loves his daughters just as he loves his wife, and was more than willing to tell them that. He is honest in a kind fashion, softening even the worst mistake with gentle suggestions of how to improve it and a willingness to accept anything no matter how rash or stupid, if was just an accident.
Shiri
Name: Shiri of the Tempered SteelRelationship: SisterAge: 25(15th, Spring)Status: Assumed deadDescription: The favourite child, or at least she would have been had Rhu's parents been inclined to pick favourites. The fastest, strongest and most intelligent of the four, Shiri was the one to curb Elke's temper and stop Rhu from charging into combat at the first perceived slight. She was also more often than not the one with the least injuries and most wounds caused after a fight. She was Rhu's closest friend and more than her match in fighting - which was something Rhu never begrudged her for. When the two were attacked by slavers, Shiri fought by Rhu's side, killing two men herself - and Rhu never saw her again. She is currently assumed dead by Rhu, although she never saw a body.
Elke
Name: Elke of the Tempered SteelRelationship: SisterAge: 23(57th, Winter)Status: UnknownDescription: A brash, fiery ball of fury, Elke's mercurial temper could lay dormant for hours of being teased, then snap brutally forth at a moment's notice. She was seemingly incapable of telling when a fight was a very bad idea, and more responsible than any of the others for the number of brawls and fights they got into - including the occasional arguments between themselves. She was always a little jealous of her older sisters, both for their skills and their close friendship, but looked up to them too, constantly aspiring for a level of affection she didn't realize they already gave her.
Nuha
Name: Nuha of the Tempered steelRelationship: SisterAge: 21(3rd, Summer)Status: UnknownDescription: A daydreamer, Nuha is an absentminded girl with some skill (more from persistence than innate talent) in the arts. Much, much slimmer than her sisters due to an illness as a baby, Nuha's near death from said illness and general physical weakness are a sore point with the family, and anyone who says a word against her in front of her sisters got a punch in the face.
Tal
Name: Tal of the Tempered steelRelationship: Aunt (mother's sister)Age: ...Status: UnknownDescription: Tal is the only surviving sister of Irit, and is also the only one of their siblings not to have children - a sore spot for the huntress and one of the few things she will come to blows about if it's brought up. After several years of trying with a variety of men, she realized that the problem was with her and devoted her life to hunting and to her dogs instead, many of which she raised from birth. Partly due to her own lack of offspring, Tal is both immensely fond and protective of her nieces and nephews, and was the first in the family to accept Asa as Irit's mate. Last edited by
