[Ashka]

Ashka, rider of the white horses of the sea Appearance Race: Human, mixed Gender: Female Age: 17 Birthday: 83, Spring, 501 Birthplace: Suvan Sea Appearance: At 16, Ashka stands 5' 8", and is still growing, with wide shoulders, long limbs, and a body that hasn't yet filled out to match her frame. This gives her a gawky, almost ungainly look. At 17, she stands 5' 9" tall, and beginning to fill out, although still long-limbed and gawky. She has long, bushy, mousy-brown, hair and blue eyes that look almost blue-green in some lights. She tends to bundle her hair back under bright scarves to keep it out of her way and under some kind of control. A svefran tattoo sits on her left shoulder: from one angle it resembles a breaking wave, from another it resembles the head of a horse. Character Concept Caught between land and sea, not fitting in either, and stuck with a double dose of wanderlust, Ashka is more reserved than her kin on either side. She watches warily for the next prank she is sure is about to be played on her, but if someone gets past the reserve and the wariness, she is loyal, quick to defend, and full of her own quirky humour. Character History Born of a Svefra mother and a Drykas father, Ashka grew up mostly on her mother's ship, seeing her father only when the Run brought him close to the coast. She learned to spin and weave, making cord for fishing lines, rope for rigging, or cloth for a sail, whichever was necessary at the time. As she grew older, she became aware that as an unmarked Svefra-mix, she was more of a hindrance on voyages than a help, and when her mother suggested that she and her little sister spend longer with their father and see if the Sea of Grass - or just the land in general - was a better fit, she unhappily agreed. Their mother dropped them off at Riverfall, but their father never showed up, and without his backing, none of the Drykas that did come to trade were interested in taking a pair of sea-trained walahks under their wing. Ashka thanked them anyway, gathered up her own travel gear and, with her sister in tow, set out to find a place where they might actually fit in for once. Language Fluent Language: Common Basic Language: Fratava Poor Language: Pavi Family Chaya Relation: Sister DoB: 5 Summer 508 Race: Human, mixed Type: Travelling NPC Skills: Swimming 10, Fishing 10, Weaving 10 Brown haired and blue eyed, Chaya is a study in bubbling excitement. Quick to spot things, eager to investigate them, and full of an optimism that in Ashka has worn down to a nub. Erlin Hawkheart Relation: Father Aislyn Breakingwave Relation: Mother Housing Location: Ashka's Acres, Syka House: A tent pitched on the edge of the beach, close to her canoe. Further up, close to the tree line is a low house with a bamboo frame, cloth walls, and palm thatch. It blends well with the jungle.
