Appearance and Personality

Appearance

Like a lot of female Au Ra, Kumiko is more on the short end of things than the tall. Standing only at about 4'9", this generally puts her at a disadvantage if you want her to fetch something from the top shelf. She's also scrawny enough that most would probably think she subsists on air. This is perhaps for the best since she's fond of any and all shoulder carries from taller, stronger friends that she's offered. Like any Raen, her scales are of the paler variety, in a creamy off-white color; in stark contrast, her hair and skin are both much darker.

Her eyes are a silvery grey with light grey limbal rings, which can look a tad off-putting in low light or after dark. Despite the desert heat, she's fond of keeping her hair long, just vain enough to tolerate the discomfort for the sake of appearances. While she certainly knows how to dress reasonably on an adventuring contract, if Kumiko had her way (and had the cash) there'd be a lot more cute dresses and clothes accented with lace or dyed pretty colors in her life.

Personality

To Be Added

Family

Father

On one hand, Kumiko could count every detail she has ever known about her father. The first was, naturally, that he was a Raen. The second was he was of significantly lower social standing than her mother. Thirdly, it was his own wits that saw to their safe arrival with a Malaguld clan, and the last was apparently her own name. Unfortunately, that was where his luck ran out -- she was scarce more than a toddler when he perished on the steppes. While she's never missed him the way a child might miss a parent they knew and loved, she does recognize what he meant to her mother and is grateful to what she was given by him.
