Biographical Information

General

Given Name: Jariana Rinjahl

Pronunciation: [JAHR-i-ah-na RIHN-ja(h)l]

Nicknames: Jari

Place of Birth: The Wilds of the Twelveswood

Current Residence: None, typically traveling

Employer: Crystalline

Marital Status: Free

Appearance

Height: 4 fulms 10 ilms (Something she regularly grumbles about.)

Weight: About average for her height.

Body: Jari is exceptionally well toned, with a very lean musculature and a slightly larger than average bust. Overall she has much the look and physical poise of a gymnast.

Hair: A little past shoulder length, but typically pulled back into a simple ponytail or braid. At first glance her hair is black, but some red can be seen especially in direct sunlight.

Eyes: A very dark red with large round pupils.

Skin: Tanned, with almost a tawny hue.

Scars and Markings: Jariana sports a fairly standard set of light markings on her face, typical of the families of Keepers in the Shroud. Her body is mostly free of scars, with the most obvious being some light ones across her forearms and shoulders. Her ears are pierced, which she now uses for pearls, though previously it had just been for a simple pair earrings or two. Like many other Keepers she has a longer set of canines, which she occasionally shows off when smirking or smiling.

Clothing: If out 'on the job', Jari typically will wear plated leg and arm pieces, with chain and possibly a breastplate under a reinforced tunic. She forgoes full plate armor, preferring something a bit lighter for mobility's sake. If in civilian clothes, her preferred dress is a simple tunic and long boots. Regardless of situation, she has nothing against showing off a hint of skin here and there, though nothing too overt. One constant however, is she is rarely seen without her sword at her hip, and getting her to give it up, even where it is definitely not appropriate, can be a struggle.

Voice: Feminine overall with a medium timbre. Her accent is rather clear, showing many of the hallmarks of someone who has been educated formally at least a little.

Abilities

Physical Training:

Swordplay, armored and unarmored, one or two handed. Grappling, armored and unarmored Daggers Basic use of Polearms/Poleaxes.

Preferences/Strengths: Jariana is first and foremost a swordswoman, with supplementary training to support her general usefulness as a front-line battlefield fighter. Her style has been described as a 'brutal dance', her strikes always efficient and well measured, balancing power and speed.

Aversions/Weaknesses: She can fire an arrow... sorta... in a general direction... at times. Maybe. While she is well trained in grappling, she is no pugilist, as fighting with one's fists is not terribly effective against armor in her mind.

Magical Training:

Defensive and Healing Magics Basics of Conjury Aetherically tuned

Preferences/Strengths: Jariana is trained in the basics of aetheric healing and defense. She is also able to sense aetheric concentrations and movements, describing them as a 'song'.

Weaknesses: Offensive magics baffle her currently and her aetheric senses require complete concentration on her part, making them significantly less effective in combat.

Crafting:

Armorer Blacksmith/Weaponsmith

Preferences/Strengths: Jari enjoys working with metal, a love she picked up from watching her father at the forge. She specializes in weapons and armor, but has occasionally made something of a more artistic flair here and there.

Aversions/Weaknesses: She does not care much for anything outside of the black metals, so does very little with softer precious metals. Her focus on the metal can at times lead to "unfortunate" accidents involving burned clothes and singed hair.
