Aeryn Alder

Aeryn is a faun capable of traversing different realities. Of all the realities, of all the realms, of all the cities, and of all the diners, she happened to land close to the Spiritual Travelers in The Night City of Dorchar.
She first met the Spiritual Travelers on Daulok 7, 308 while they were speaking with Croak in the DINER. She's a bit confused and baffled by where she ended up and claims that she was simply enjoying a day at home with her partner when she just showed up in this strange land. She has yet to reveal what she is capable of, but also assures them that she can fight and has even managed to help keep Kaswink alive with some healing magic.

While seated around the campfire and enjoying some Traveler's Shiitake stew, she offered a story of Aeo.
"The wanderer, the death of Ashan, brought on by Aeo, who witnessed Ashan slaughter Yadira and Aeryn. Aeo created everything and um, Ashan was the lover of Yadira, and Yadira the lover of Ashan. They married long ago and one day I showed up." She paused, "I confessed my love for Yadira who reciprocated that..." She paused again, "Ashan's son was jealous, Yadira never told Ashan, and Yadira wanted me to confess her feelings. Ashan destroyed the moon and the earth, and Aeo destroyed Ashan, and, in turn, the universe. Dzen noticed a part of her missing. Dzen destroyed Aeo. Dzen then destroyed the multiverse of everything. I think that's why I'm here."
Aeryn also explained that she was being cryptic because she is piecing together how she got here, and that Aeo is a shapeless creator of all.
So far, while traveling through The Rotting Gate, she has displayed an immense amount of worry at her surroundings and the very situation. Despite this, she has pressed on and done everything she can to assist.

Physical Description

Body Features

Aeryn is 5 foot 2 inches in height. She has deer legs and tail with ram horns. Her skin outside the animal parts is covered with a fine, translucent fur, and the skin beneath is a soft grey in color with noticeable purple veins (as in the color draws your attention, not how profound they are).

Facial Features

Her eyes have crescent shaped pupils whose horns face up, and bleed their deep black minimally into the light yellow surrounding them. Her face is semi short and the features on it are distinctly Slavic/Inuit. The hair atop her head is a dark brown and styled in a pixie/bob style, with no dyes, gels or pins.

Apparel & Accessories

She wears what looks like a lab coat with the bottom turning into a sort of dress. Buttons hold the top half together and a small slit is present near the tail where it can be uncovered or covered. Generally tails are left uncovered, but it does get cold enough to warrant covering sometimes. The coat dress is a soft white, made from a cotton wool blend. She doesn't wear shoes and carries a pair of gloves in her right pocket.
Aeryn's horns are the only thing with accessories on them. Part of the faun culture is to affix a temporary decoration (in this case, Aeryn has a daisy flower set like a pen behind the ear) as well as painting or dying them with different designs. She has some designs on her horns which follows a geometric pattern from the base to the tips. It's not complete, but nearly halfway there. Horn dyes are rather expensive and Aeryn doesn't really make enough to get them done all at once. no one does really.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Aeryn's history is still largely unknown, however, she did reveal that she comes from somewhere called "Earth". Supposedly from an "alternate reality" of that Earth as well, and that she has a habbit of hopping from one reality to the next.
She explained to the Spiritual Travelers, upon meeting them, that she is "The Nature Spirit" where she's from, but that she is unfamiliar with how her powers would work in a land full of different spirits.
"She's from (originally) an alternate version of earth that experienced a dimensional cataclysm that wiped out 95% of human life. She also used to be human and what turned her into the nature spirit was based on a decision made by this stories illustrious God of Gods Aeo, who gifted her her current name."
