'The Saga of Rain'
SapphireRain is a Carrouborun Tribal cat from the western deserts. Her people where originally located in the forests just to the east of the desert and the mountains, but due to the high demand for land and the greed of humans, her kind was pushed back to the cruel desert regions just on the other side of the mountains.
Her tribe had been attacked viciously over the last few years by slave traders, religious groups and groups that uphold 'human justice' for many reasons. Among the most common is the need for slave or cheep labor, and the fact the Carrouborun tribe frequently attacks outside villages in their old 'home' for food and supplies. One tale claims that they had wiped out a whole village, the cats often deny this claim.
Rain left home at the age of 15, leaving her surviving family, tribal members and an unwanted 'fiance' behind. She told her family and elders she was leaving to seek justice for the tribe and win back the lands. Most of the tribe said farewell, never expecting her to live in the outside world, but Kisaki Ra, the Eldest daughter of the Tribal Chief, and AshenCrow, Brother of Rain, sent her off with three gifts to help her survive on her journey.
The Precious Objects:
Rain was sent from her tribe with three sacred items given to her by her closest friends, Ra and Crow.
-Ring of the three bones - A ring passed down from a chief to his eldest child, this ring magnifies Alchemic abilities, even to those who possess little or no alchemic abilities in the first place, so the wearer can use Alchemy in practical and defensive uses without using circles. When in use, the ring summons a magical staff that allows the user to use powerful alchemic transmutation abilities from basic elements forged in the staff or by using objects around them. The true powers of this staff are yet to be discovered by Rain, and she is limited in her transmutations.
-Alchemic Sword - A family heirloom given to Rain's eldest Brother, Crow, who gave it to her when she left home. It is engraved with six alchemic circles on the blade, allowing her to fight with fire, water, air, darkness, light and earth attributes. The handle has phoenix feathers from a pet of Rain's, for good luck, protection and strength. Rain cannot use the abilities of this sword very effectively yet, but can wield the sword very skillfully.
-Spirit Charm - Symbol of Rains Faith. Spirit stones are small, glowing rocks that are said to contain guarding spirits to protect the wearer from harm. She wears this pendent around her neck constantly and refuses to remove it for any reason.
Mission
Rain originally left her tribe to avoid an unwanted union between herself and an old childhood friend, Sparrow Darkwing. Sparrow, being a notable and honorable warrior, was given the right to select a bride when he turned 17. Rain, Just turning 15 at the time, had been thrown into the mix of available choices, and unfortunately for her, was chosen. At first, she didn't mind the idea, but as memories of the outside world came back to her, she came up with the idea to leave the village to 'seek vengeance.' Leaving Sparrow behind with no regrets, she went out into the world with little idea of what lay just ahead of her. She was only grateful to be out of the desert, out of unwanted love and off an unwanted path in her life.
Apperence and Information
Sapphire Rain has grown nearly 2 years older since she first left home and has had many experiences in her travels, some that help her towards her goal to reacquire her tribes lands, and some leading her even farther away.
Rain LOVES sweet rolls, and virtually anything else coated in syrup, honey or sugar. She is also particularly fond of fruit and fish, but usually wont eat beef or pork.
Rain Enjoys fair climate areas, can stand hot dry climates and will do anything to avoid cold, snowy climates
Her favorite pass times are mock duels, Studying Alchemy, Sunbathing, and Learning about the world, usually by asking many questions. She doesnt mind traveling, swimming, napping, dancing, or singing. She hates studying trade, being stuck inside, being unable to do anything.
Rain speaks her native language the best, can speak english fairly fluently and cannot speak anything else. (she often uses an 'english' accent, but has been known to slip to her more unusal sounding and natrual cat tone when she isnt paying attention or in an uncomfortable situation.)
Rain is a beginning Alchemest, has the skills to be a great warrior or theif, and would never be a trader, merchant, or farmer.
