Lheyad
Kinma
Infusions: kelp, horses (partially).
A true iconoclast, Lheyad has taken many roles in her life so far - priest and heretic, soldier and caretaker, source of comfort and of outrage. Always she has been guided by her evolving view of what is right, for herself and for the world.
Currently she leads The Shiners, a roving group of war casualties of all kinds - Maneaters, orphans, deserters and the maimed - as they forage and survive across The Giteri. She rehabilitates the members of the group, finding homes in broader society where possible and desired, and giving them a role within their own community otherwise. Of all the Roving Kinma bands of the Giteri, none is more generous with its Gifted than the Shiners - yet ironically, Lheyad is no Kinma at all, another taboo she is thoroughly smashing. Their acceptance of Maneaters and Flouting of the Kinma system makes
Shiner Questions/facts:
- Founded (or at least, joined and given purpose by Lheyad) in 8LF.
- how big? obviously fluctuates
- relationship with braided band? perhaps initially opposed before coming around
- occasionally provide manpower to (e.g.) take in harvests, and take on war-wounded from armies and communities.
- mostly Giterikin and Southern sphinxes (and other maneaters), and the mean age is young.
- how does it move? does it have a base? is there a guardian windwell elemental that protects them/their base? what are they like?
- what traditions? house-of-forms funerals?
- what other powers and abilities exist within the group?

Social
Contacts & Relations
Although trained in the art of the House-of-forms Faiths, she is now an apostate to those religions for not using their abilities as intended. they hold her in great animosity (though the religions are not organised enough to mount an overall offense or strategy against her, or even to communicate information about her - it's more a case of general religious persecution once she is "outed" to a community). However, she is not intentionally antagonistic towards the religion, nor has she officially renounced it as such; she simply does what she feels is right, ignoring the tenets of faith.
