Mad scientist and alchemist extraordinaire willing to get results no matter the cost. Combined with her lab assistant the chemically enhanced gorilla Gilbert she is a force to be reckoned with.
Background
Rajit was born to a poor family of Halfling tenant farmers in Wheatyfield, Caron and Gerza. The first few years of her life are hazy, but she recalls a simple hut, many siblings and thin, overworked parents. One particularly poor harvest left her parents in dire straits, with too many mouths to feed. They made a hard decision to give some children up, at 8 Rajit was one of their eldest, but also one of the weakest children and least use on the farm. Hoping she would find either a better life, or a suitor and her way into an early marriage in the next few years of her life. She was given up to Quinton Arnjaunor, a man heading an orphanage dedicated to Ilmater.
Rajit found herself among many siblings once again, but this time they were generally well fed. She was one of the older children, and one of the only children to come to the orphanage with living parents, a fact she felt great shame over. She was keenly aware of her 'cost' to her benefactors, and became fascinated with the concepts of money and cost. She watched as money transformed everything, money was given for transformation and used for transformation. It made life possible, it made love possible, and was the source of all things.
Rajit tried to help around the orphanage the best she could, tending to the animals and using her skills from her old farm life. Animals were so simple, if you feed them they love you. If you brush them, they love you. And then they create or transform into that which keeps you alive, to do it again. Love, life, and security. Her friendship with animals was a practical one, but deeply important to her.
Rajit was a quick study at the orphanage, excelling in the sciences. She became enamored with transmutation magic in general, the thread of transformation lead her to alchemy, and she formed her own understanding of many things. Alchemy was the way of nature, and money was the way of society. Both transformed things. Seeking the security she'd lacked ever since her birth, she practiced and developed her skills. Learning to transform and master magic, the elements and ultimately to master coin and social alchemy.
Reaching maturity Rajit sets forth to make a living. One of her loving animal companions not far behind. On her waist, a bandoleer of potions and a promise of change.
Appearance
Rajit is a thin and waifish 21 year old Stout Halfling female standing 2'10" and a mere 35 lbs. Blonde hair spills from an uneven and short messy pixie cut. Cloudy blue eyes with a fluorescent sheen stare plainly from behind any number of lenses, monocles, glasses, and goggles. Her gaunt features frame frail cheeks and thin lips. She often appears anemic and lacking color.
She is dressed in a heavy canvas laboratory coat covering a thick leather undercoat, with similarly made bracers, trousers, gloves and boots. A heavy woolen cloak wraps around her shoulders, the back of which is largely embroidered with a badge depicting a bundle of hyssop stalks with purple blooms bound in red twine.
On her waist is a bandoleer of small bottles, containing potions and tools, many of which she uses to perform magical or tactical effects. She carries a small crossbow, with strange copper loops running along the limbs. A metal canister is built into the frame, and connected by copper wires to the limbs.

Goals I must become powerful enough to always be self sufficient in case I get abandoned again. **Ongoing.**
I want to find love and one day start a family; after the disaster my parents made when raising and abandoning me I know I can do better. Where are the bachelors? **Failing miserably.**
I want to raise Gilbert to truly be my peer. He deserves it.
I want to command an airship. I believe it will give me the freedom and influence.
Development Arc Rajit's development arc starts with her as a weak damsel in distress in the care of Gilbert, her gorilla companion. Over time Rajit develops her own strength through alchemical abilities. She takes this too far as she attempts to co-opt the power of demons and other risky sources by distilling their essence. Rajit's foray into bloodhunting puts her health at severe risk. As she becomes capable of holding her own she becomes less desperate and turns back towards general alchemical pursuits, never undoing her past but taking a more pure approach. Rajit's ultimate goal is to become a person she sees as worth of being loved and worthy of loving others. She goes to extreme lengths to do this, and doesn't believe anyone can love another without complete self sufficiency. This is rooted in her parent's abandonment of her as soon as times got difficult.
Personality Traits "I am always looking for more: Money, power or knowledge born from a life of having nothing.
I am very curious and interested in things only until I discern if they have potential, if not I discard them."
Ideals "Alchemy is the way to transform all things. I believe I can and should change myself and others for the better. (Good)
I don't care what it takes or what I have to use to accomplish my goals, whether it be demon-flesh or dangerous concoctions. (Chaotic)"
Bonds "Gilbert is my friend and closest companion.
I believe in others more than myself, I will empower my allies."
Flaws "I'm a sucker for a pretty face.
I have abandonment issues; my parents gave me away as a teenager. I am afraid of being alone."
Role they fill in a group Rajit is a backline fighter who unleashes withering firepower on foes from her mechanized hand crossbow. She offers some support to her allies through her alchemical creations which tend to focus on enhancement, healing and sometimes space control. Rajit is accompanied by her very tough companion, Gilbert the gorilla, who is a frontline defender. The two are capable of filling all group roles to an extent, and that transformative and combinatorial element to their playstyle is a hallmark of their adaptability.

Alignment
Orderliness Rajit tends towards chaotic alignment. While she lacks deep eusocial ties and questions the operation of institutions of justice she believes in natural laws and thus sees the world through a sense of universalism. Despite this she believes that exceptional individuals can break their natural limits and transform themselves into something more. She believes that things that are too weak to survive are simply victims of the natural order.
Goodness Rajit tends towards good alignment. While Rajit believes in change and the power of transformation she uses it as a vehicle to make things better from her perspective. Earning money to live better, curing illnesses to live better, or even in her case being adopted and the resulting good. She tends to struggle with moral quandaries and prefers things be as clear as possible.
Locus of Motivation Rajit is intensively internally motivated. Rajit's drive for improvement is a sense of shame, worthlessness and her history of being discarded by her parents. Believing herself to be nothing but the dirt-poor child of dirt-poor farmers she is keenly interested in presenting herself as more. Nearly no one knows of these aspects of Rajit's history, but the shame still drives her to be anything but what she was.
Social Investment Rajit struggles with social groups. She is a very odd individual in many ways, a serious halfling, a multidisciplinary scientist who lacks exceptional depth in research or teaching, completely separated from her family and never quite holistically fitting in with her adoptive one. With few places to fit in she has often existed on the fringe of social groups, always watching and learning but rarely participating.

Physical quirks
Physical Quirks Rajit is frequently confused for a gnome due to her thin build and her interests in traditionally gnomish fields. She is often frustrated by this as she is not a gnome, and she feels even further separated from both races when this occurs. Rajit doesn't like being categorized as she is not someone who fits in anywhere. Rajit is sickly looking. She is exceptionally thin for a Stout Halfling and despite being built on a foundation of earthy strength from her early life as a farmer's daughter it is clear she suffered from poor nutrition and stunted growth.
Apparel & Accessories
Style Rajit wears clothing that is highly practical and comfortable. The aesthetics tend to lag behind the purpose of the clothing. Rajit often dresses in layers and is able to add or remove them in order to help her deal with differing environmental temperatures as she is quite small and unable to quickly adapt to cold specifically.
Clothing Rajit wears a heavy white canvas labcoat layered with a blue leather inner coat Between the coats layers are sewn studded magnets which Rajit uses in some of her spells. Beneath this she wears a black silk shirt with a tie and a black silk skirt. Finally she wears a pair of thick heavy leather thigh high boots. Rajit keeps her thighs exposed to help regulate her body heat and also to have access to major arteries for injections.
Identifiers Rajit wears her Hawthorne badge on the lapel of her coat. The back panel of her coat bears the symbol of Hyssop Home.
Accessories Rajit has very few trinkets for decoration, though she has expensive tastes. She has ornately carved fasteners on her clothing that are well polished and taken care of. Additionally she wears clothes of fine black silk, and wears fine gloves as well as a necktie. Rajit has a surprising number of shoes for a halfling and seems to be dedicated to wearing them; if asked she will explain that foot protection is non-negotiable in the laboratory.
Casual Clothes Rajit tends toward baggy and warm clothes when dressed casually, and will pull her hair back into a messy bun. She finds comfort in heavy woolen pants and sweaters as well as slippers.
Specialized Equipment
Weapons Rajit wields a number of vials, bottles and ampules containing a wide variety of chemical weapons and enhancements. Rajit's primary armament is her copper-looped crossbow, a hand crossbow enhanced by a series of copper circuits which allows it to transfer electrical charge to her crossbow bolts. This crossbow contains a series of enhancements designed by Rajit to permit it to perform far beyond expected parameters.
Armor Rajit wears no armor and has no shield. She defends herself using charged magnetic fields which interrupt and deflect attackers as well as utilizing her chemically enhanced speed and small size to dodge attacks.
Tools Rajit carries alchemist's supplies with her in the field to generate her concoctions. Her coat is filled with pockets and panels to contain all of her tools and basic reagents. While Rajit is a capable glassblower she does not carry glassblowing tools into the field.
Special Items Rajit's favored items include her Quiver of Ehlonna, her vast collection of potions and her many lensed eyewear.
Spellcasting Focus Rajit uses a component pouch for her spellcasting, she always has the right reagent to get the reaction she needs. She contains volatile substances in bottles to deliver them to locations.
Special abilities
Talents Rajit's biggest talent is sheer persistence. She is willing to put herself through repetition and suffer through pain with gritted teeth to accomplish her goals. Her skills are typically built through practice and observation. She is tirelessly logical.
Physiological Rajit has no specific physiological abilities besides an innate toxic resistance due to being a stout halfling. This has likely saved her life on many occasions given her proclivity to work with dangerous and toxic chemicals.
Social Rajit has no social talents other than having learned how to work with animals on her childhood farm. Her small size makes her nonthreatening to beasts and she is capable of identifying their intentions through her skills as a ranger.
Spiritual Rajit has no spiritual talents. She believes herself to be beneath the notice of the gods.
Magical Rajit has some natural magic casting talents, generally acquired through hard repetitive work and study. She is only particularly talented in magics which effect transformations and changes, and is not particularly adept or skillful in illusion or social magics.

Education
Education Level Rajit started her education quite late, beginning at nearly nine years old, and was the first literate member of her family. She struggled with schooling initially, not understanding how the seemingly nonsensical exercises were any benefit but as she found practical use for mathematics and scientific skills she proved to be an above average student. Rajit would go on to complete her schooling and additionally learn some advanced alchemical and engineering techniques from a traveling artificer, Sentrid Vixx.
Notable Masters Rajit studied under Vifi Hovruda in Hyssop Home for her general education and later learned the basics of artificing and wizardry from Sentrid Vixx. Rajit has no particular relationship with either at this time.

Confidence Rajit doesn’t hold herself in enough esteem. She is particularly down on her pedigree and her value as a romantic or family partner.
Morality & Philosophy
Philosophical views Rajit sees all as an exchange. A grim economy of have and have not and making every bit count. This is the law of nature and can not be violated. Because Rajit sees herself as being a low value individual she is quick to sacrifice or risk herself for payoffs and seeks power to protect what she gains.
Views on Religion Rajit sees faith in the gods as a clear example of exchange of services for power.

Rajit holds a dismal view of Yondalla, believing her parents' worship was fruitless if not nearly fatal.
