Character Details

Class/Level: Monk (20)
Gender: Female
Deity: None
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Age: 112 lived, 101 naturally

This mul woman holds an unnerving and menacing presence, as it’s clear that she needs no weapon nor magic to rend anything asunder. Lithe and muscular, her entire body screams that she is a walking weapon, even despite the fact her stature barely comes up to the shoulder on most.

Scars from countless trials line nearly every inch of exposed dim gray flesh. Underneath the hardened veneer belies youth for an elf, yet the steel in her glowing milky eyes and marrings upon her skin age her in more than just time. Half-shaved, moon hued hair that wafts over her right shoulder makes it easy to spot a deeper-than-skin scar that runs jagged across the front of her throat.

Silver trimmed black pants and a sleeveless black shirt expose glowing runed leather cords that wrap from shoulder to wrist against taut muscles. A silver pockmarked medallion dangles from her neck, matching the wide, silver framed shades that rests on her nose. A verdant buckle jacket sits shoulder robed, somehow always staying in place, as the silver chain clasp on it doesn’t seem to be doing much work.

About

A heavily scarred mul'neissa woman that works the Alexandrian docks, who tends to speak more with her fists than any words she could write down. She arrived to Alexandria to escape the clutches of Charn, yet keeps finding such atrocities creeping back up on her. Thrust into the adventuring life, she tends to see most with open suspicion lest they are vetted by those she's come to trust. She has also taken up the role of coach of a newfounded team in the Colosseum called The Crucible!

Roleplay Hooks

  • Runaway: Fleeing from the underbelly of Charn has its own problems that constantly arise.
  • Pugilist: Aryia talks with her fists often, her training consisting of an unorthodox mishmash of various mentors, desperation, and grit. Not quite a proper monk, but close enough to get the gist of it.
  • Seamstress: From jackets to cloaks, to wedding dresses and suits, if one needs clothes, she can make it, and make it well. Just... don't get her for a last minute formal wear.
  • Colosseum Coach: Aryia's efforts of training fighters and pugilists in Alexandria's Colosseum has earned her a spot as one of the coaches for tournaments.

Aspect02.jpg

Aspect PC Badge
Aspect: Sun-Touched
Tier: Tier 3 + Major Tattoos
Development: Odd it is that a mul'neissa is aligned with the moonlight, yet still retains their touch of shadows. Either the coin landed on its side on the flip, or something else manifests. The tattoo manifest as moon hued lines of light across her body when the Aspect is used or Ki abilities are tapped. This aspect is highly apparent when using her mythic abilities, as skin turns onyx and scars crack into marble and shine.
