When she ties her hair back - which she rarely does- one can see her positive true personality more. She is surprisingly compotent.
Personality: while somewhat feeble and odd to look at at first glance, when one is around her (and when she wishes to show it) she can be very approachable and friendly. She's naturally a kind person and delights in helping others and making them smile. She's a little shy with strangers whe not directly interacting with them as a performer or a medic. However, she is tough and no-nonsense with regards to her own feelings and can be quite hard on herself and thsoe who insult her. A ard life and a focus on blood rituals have given her a high pain tolerence - both physically and emotionally.
Bio: As the daughter of a small village's pastor, Ghenna was relatively well educated and delighted in reading stories, poetry and performing little magic tricks. She discovered her talents for alchemy at an early age, but they were kept under wraps - partially as it challenged some aspects of her father's religion,a nd partially because it was a dangrous subject.
She became illigitimately pregnant at an early age and - with great lament0 was cats out fo the family home. She miscarried, but felt unable to return, and so set upon a wandering life, telling her stories and offering helaing assistance & counsel for a small sum of money. By the time the alchemists were being cleaned she had learnt to keep her gift secret, but always experiemented with bood alchemy. She found a small grup of otehr alchemists and for teh first time she actually was able to settle down in one place again....then the purges happened. The alchemists were killed and she fought with her life. When she ws injure din teh face she instantly used her own blood to try and save the others. It failed and she was left for dead.
After some time she recovered.
Other: While she is a blood alchemist, she is an extremly talented one. She is willing to go to almost any sacrifice to intensify her magic and it can have many tasks. She has developed a talent for interacting with living particles, and can change the elemental compositions in human bodies, often with dramatic and very effective results.
She is experiementing with life energy, though is reluctant to use it. She belives that by mixing the blood and life disaplines, one could 'borrow' life form other beings instead of her own. This skill, however, is still very new and little developed.
