Ieah of Soojun

I hate this town. It is cold in the winter and blazing hot in the summer. It is in the middle of nowhere with hundreds of miles of nothing but grass and hills all around. Nothing happens here! Ugh! Follow the rules. Commoners must walk in the street or step off to allow the nobles and aristocrats to pass. Stupid human nobles! Not that all humans are bad- just the nobles who think they are so much better than everyone cause they know like five generations of ancestors, and have keeps, and followers and their stupid rules and their "I'm so much better than you, beast!"
I'm a Minotaur. (Mean-o-tar). Outlander even though I was born here! I can probably take a bunch of them, except they'd come back with buddies or that Twisted Order (Abukojura. "Twisted Order") gang or guards. Or try to kill me for beating my "betters". I'd have the fire elemental burn them if they tried. I'm not afraid. The Minotaur way Rheeu- (ʁiʊ ) Whi-vol, the Path of Glory! (Glory Path )

Ieah is a mage of shaman tradition. She is also a Minotaur of the Glory Path. She carries a Ley Stone of 8 essence (PP), Two talens- one is 2d6 wind and the other 3d6 Fire, and a short sword with an enchanted +1 focus. She has Watchful Po, Spirit sight and Elemental Talen powers. Her Totem is Gecko. Gecko is fast moving and always on the lookout, finding ways into places she shouldn’t go and often bringing friends along for the fun. Gecko is a prankster/trickster but not a thief. Gecko likes to watch, spy and find secrets. She isn’t bound by obligation or rules and her adherents are not expected to be either.  


Like Papa, I am of the Star House and we love information and secrets.  I can't really tell anyone some of the secrets I've found out! Not even my best friends like Zudae-jhr*, one of the gazelle-face at the Landshome ( Landshome public house ), Aduasa-jhr the Bahku , or Hareh-jhr, a nightelf ( The Fae) . Or Onu, one of the cute human Olia boys at the Hart. (Icy Hart ). Aduasa-jhr says she has to look after Hareh-jhr and me, because she is Urr. We three go all over and explore looking for something interesting. Tik-jhr, Pirb-jhr, and Nenz-jhr are my best minotaur friends and Vejzeh Shil-Bivi who is a Centaur and makes us use her full name. Centaurs are so stiff with their Honor! The Minotaur way is more fun.
*= ʒɤ (jhr) friend, familiar use as in a buddy.

Physical Description

Body Features

Ieah has a stocky build and busty with the double mammary anatomy of a minotaur.   She has a red coat with blackhair down the back of her head and neck. Her horns are black with white at the base 3rd.

Apparel & Accessories

She typically wears a snake bracelet and earrings shaped as fruit and made with glass and wire.  She usually wears a greatcoat and a plain dress and will disguise herself using Gecko's gift of Appearance to be a horn helmeted human adult male of Esereti appearance.

Mental characteristics

Sexuality

Ieah is a pansexual and a hedonist. She is a bit dramatic and weekly tells her friends who she is in love with, bragging about conquests ( which actually are the same 3 individuals). Then heartbreak over break ups or cooldowns.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Ieah's ambition is to go out adventuring and see the world- especially the Salt Spire Mountains  and the Inner Sea.  She also wants to find out all the secrets in and around Soojun.

Vices & Personality flaws

Her vice is Wrath and she tries to keep her temper under control.  To her shame she lost control with some human bullies and released a fire elemental that burnt down several houses in pursuit of her tormentors. She generally avoids showing the Fire Elemental pacts she has except in extremis.  If thwarted or threatened she risks a Wrath episode of destruction and violence to punish idiots, enemies or the cruel and hurtful.  Her friends try to help her keep calmer and clear of mind.

Social

Contacts & Relations

Zudae, one of the gazelle-face at the Landshome Public House is a friend for shopping, gossip, clothes and jewelry. Zudae isn't interested in adventure and thrills but likes to talk about the visitors to the Inn, jewelry, clothes and what boys she is interested in.
Hareh is a Nightelf (Sluagh). She is thin with light lavender skin tone and black hair, with purple eyes. She is a thief and initiate of the Lion Mask's gang. As is typical of her breed- she loves collecting secrets as much as Ieah and is frequently involved in her adventures around town. She is typically cold, aloof but civil and even formal with those she doesn't know. Her style is plain and discreet. She is one of Ieahs older friends at age 23.
Aduasa is a Bahku female of medium build and height, age 15 and adult by Bahku standards. Her test was living for a year in the wild grasslands when she turned 14 and has only been back in town for half a year wearing 6 braids and beads in her mane. She has also found that she is Urr  (rank 3) with Boosted senses(spirits, ghosts and magic and sense of smell), Boosted coat- shed and Soak damage +1, and regeneration, leap and magic aura to hit things immune to normal attacks. She and Ieah have been off and on lovers before the Test, during and after.

Family Ties

Papa Earogwa keeps his ears open and contacts around town watching out for his adopted daughter. Auntie and adoptive mother, Itievu does the same with the spirits and sometimes sends her Chimeric Guard dog companion to act as protector.

Mannerisms

Ieah is a bit of a pushy hotheaded individual that doesn't take "no" for an answer and finds ways around, over, under or through. She is a Minotaur of the Glory path that celebrates achievement, bragging, overcoming and defeating obstacles or enemies, and flamboyant, gaudy display and behavior. As such she is also instigator and plays lead to her friends when going out to listen to music, shopping, or finding secrets and adventures in town. When nervous she rubs her thighs as if wiping her hands. On each side she has made scars as pacts for permanent Gifts of Lightning Bolt (3) and Appearance. She also has the Gift Earth Speak as a soul imprint.  When worked up, anxious or fearful she is likely to rub her scars.
  For all of that, she is also accomplished as a second Rank Shaman. (Shamanism ). Her magical skill and abilities as a Minotaur and a shaman make her formidable for her age and make her a bit over confident. Her Bahku friend, Aduasa is an Urr, chosen of the Gods of her people as a guide and protector. Aduasa considers protecting Ieah and her other friends as part of her duties.

I love all the quotes that give insight to the personality of Iaeah. Also, the article had a really good turn to it.   The only thing I would want here is more of her adventures. I like the burning of bullies, but what else has she done? Also, what are her goals, what are her dreams and aspirations?
