xxxxx »Her Name:Virali Tulsi
xxxxx »The Age:26
xxxxx »The Traditional Faction:fellowship of mages, essentially a traveling intern
xxxxx »A Traveling Life: Has a permanent residence with family in Pwlanarfyll, Mishkan. Travels incessantly.
xxxxx »Her Looks: xxxxHer hair is long and dark brown. Slightly wavy, it tangles easily, so she often braids it. Standing at 5'1", she's a little shorter than she would like, and of average build, not slender, not chubby and decidedly not muscular. Virali's eyes are very round and an odd brown-grey resembling teak wood. Her skin is a dark tan, her coloring mostly coming from her full-blood Yiruian mother. Reminiscent of the Yirui she never knew, her clothing is often bright and dyed with rich jewel tones. She prefers embroidery or dyed patterns on edges and favors long tunics cinched at the waist, long sashes, and tight pants. She considers her clothing to be the only jewelry needed.
xxxxx »Her Personality: xxxxWith an easy smile, Virali is an unflappable optimist, her laid-back personality the product of a worry-free upbringing. Her optimism is, as yet, unshakeable, although she has not experienced anything truly terrible. However, having lived a life without care has made it hard for her to accept being tied down by anyone or anything. She prefers instead to wander, making many loose connections rather than one meaningful one. That is not to say she neglects her acquaintances: Virali remembers every person she has ever met, even if only their face. She adores meeting new people and is, at heart, an incorrigible flirt.
Virali is flirtatious both because she enjoys the chase of romance and finds herself enthralled by peoples' reactions. When young, she was a prankster, the one who left a frog in her mother's desk, put bugs in her brother's shoes to see what would happen. (She still fondly remembers Mulethi's high-pitched scream.) She also enjoys any tactile sensation, and flirting can often lead to small opportunities to touch, nudge, invade on another's space and she revels in it. Sadly, Virali often has to suppress her urge to flirt and tease. Although she loves the attention and reactions she can garner, she has learned to be more subtle in any overtures, to consider time and place.
In contrast to her often flighty nature, she is not easily bored, but instead gets carried away in the minute details of the world around her. However, this is usually mistaken for daydreaming empty-headedness. Virali is far more likely to make odd leaps of thought through tiny connections than to simply fantasize aimlessly. Unfortunately, she often ignores or just doesn't see the bigger picture because of it. As such, she lives in the present, day-by-day, and usually doesn't care to look to her immediate future.
The one thing Virali is serious about is her magic. A fairly weak mage at first, she has strengthened her skills through hard work and believes anyone can do the same if they try hard enough. The power in magic is pure and unsullied and although she knows some may use that pure power for bad means, the power itself is a representation of everything that should be strived for in this world. While her wandering may be without any one grand purpose, she uses it to learn anything she can about her magic and would like to one day be able to claim she knows everything. Maybe she'll be able to teach her mother a few tricks then, too.
xxxxx »On Plagues: xxxxAlthough her family has kept a few stunted, Virali has yet to meet any anhelo. She finds the idea of them vaguely alarming, although interesting from a magical standpoint. At least, they are fairly balanced, Servos and Caedos, Locos and Infitiails, although she prefers the Quietus and Phasmas for their purely magical nature.
xxxxx »On Travel: xxxxAs she has wandered the Fellowship's holdings, Virali has kept a notebook, a log of her travels. Oddly enough, each hub has been wildly different. -In Maycove, the ever-present military flavors everything with a rigid tinge. I find that even the mages here seem prone to completing tasks with a efficiency rivaling the soldiers. It's very dichotomous here, the stark militaristic views contrasting with the bright colors of mage-cloth. -Colwe, with it's royalty and nobles, is snobbish and prude in a way that only the highborn are. They still think ill of merchants beneath them. But I am sure their are people among them who do not judge based on birth, but they must be difficult to find. It is a shame, for the popinjay colors of the court hide many beautiful people. -At the beginning of winter, I visited Anica, the heart of the Fellowship. Large and imposing, the heavy stones are probably held up by all the hot air wheezing out of the mages stationed there. I can feel some aspects of Knotwood seeping in through the ages-old stone. But the grand magus is young, and female, so perhaps there is change here. On the other hand, I have heard many rumors of her knight, his murders, his rage, his disease. I think I am perfectly content to never meet him.
xxxxx »Her History: xxxxVirali's family were originally immigrants from Yirui who settled in Merrimead, Mishkan. Her grandmother and grandfather sailed over alone but not penniless. They dreamed of running a successful trade-ship operation between Yirui and Panymium. They had one daughter, Usha, who married a local man, Wyand. Born from a family of ship makers, Wyand's knowledge and relentless work ethic allowed their venture to grow exponentially and they moved Tulsi Tradeships to Pwlanarfyll. Usha and Wyand soon had a son, Aaditya, followed by Virali, followed by Mulethi.
Ever since she was a child, magic seemed the most logical course of action for Virali. Her mother began instructing her from a very young age and encouraged her to venture into the world to soak up more knowledge. Virali joined several classes taught by the Fellowship and their devotion to magic and belief in the natural flow of events appealed to her, reminding her of the Yiruian beliefs her mother had spoken of. She begged her family for private lessons and soon apprenticed under a grizzled mage named Caddoc. Under his tutelage, her magic took flight and she quickly made up her mind to join the faction rather than seek marriage or join the Tulsi business. And, at the age of 16, she joined the Fellowship in Knotwood.
In the Knotwood Fellowship, she soon gained the nickname 'mouse', both for how quickly she seemed to scurry around on errands and her relatively small stature. Others disdainfully named her 'tease' for her flirtatious manner and open smile. Virali worked tirelessly in the Fellowship wherever she was needed, finding a quiet sort of fulfillment in the daily tasks of community upkeep. Her hard work was also spurred by the the vicious traditionalism in Knotwood. As both a female and someone of light nature, it was sometimes trying for her. But she attained the rank of mage at 23, and despite the opportunity, requested to not be assigned to a particular outpost. Virali had felt the stirrings of wanderlust.
Traveling, she felt freer than ever, wandering the continent, completing errands for the Fellowship and always searching for new magical knowledge. Her main goal was simply to expand herself, to see as much as could be seen. But eventually, her steps took her to both the Northern Bases in Shyregoed. Once there, the harsh cold and snow enchanted her, and blizzards forced her to winter there. But she is a traveler at heart, and who knows where her feet shall lead her next?
xxxxx »Of Family: xxxxGrandfather: Aadi, age 76. Of failing health, his mind is still sharp as a tack and he is loud and opinionated. Grandmother: Farash, age 68. An outwardly gentle woman, it was actually her that pushed Aadi to immigrate. Hand aperture. Father: Wyand, age 53. Runs the Tulsi Tradeships, for-hire ships used to transport goods all across Panymium and to Yirui. Still a hardy man, he works tirelessly to expand his business, determined never to be poor again. Mother: Usha, 48. The heritage of a long line of female Dakini mages continues in her; her aperture is in her throat. An impatient woman who both scolds harshly and praises lavishly. Brother: Aaditya, 30. Currently captain of one of a merchant ship. A boisterous young man who feels trapped on land. Brother: Mulethi, 25. Learning the accounting side of Tulsi Tradeships under the tutelage of his father. A weak mage, his aperture is in his hands.
xxxxx »Her Very Magic: xxxxDefensive, Familiarism (winged creatures). Virali's magic is rooted in the air. Her aperture resides in her lungs. To perform magic, she must breathe outwards and sketch her spells in the air using her index and middle fingers. Her staff provides her with stabilization, always connecting her to the ground. Made of cherry wood, she wound the top with a rich yellow cloth complete with tassels; hand-carved designs flow down to the base, mimicking the ever-changing wind.
xxxxx »The Dakini: xxxxDakinis in folklore are energetic beings in female form, evocative of the movement of energy in space and sky. The sky or space is the insubstantiality of everything, and, at the same time, the pure potentiality for all possible manifestations. A dakini is an outstanding female practitioner in Yirui or used to refer to an enlightened female principle of non-duality which transcends gender. That is, although the Dakini are solely female mages, they defy gender definitions. To become a Dakini mage is to go beyond the duality of gender and such meaningless things and to embrace beauty and become an embodiment of magic itself.
