Eiriel Karatri

 

 
Description Golden brown eyes peer out of long lush lashes, watching her world as she passes through it. Her rounded face bears a noble air, and her skin is smooth and soft against the fine bones. Her cheeks blush a delicate rose, sweet and elegant as the spring, and her lips, often smiling, are small and perfectly pinked. Her creamy skin is soft as silk and without blemish as porcelin. Ebon black hair is gently swept up and away from her lovely throat, twisted into a neat and rather elegant knot upon her head. Her fingers are long and deft, gesturing with grace, or folded neatly, and her hands are small and graceful. Though her height is average, her figure curves delightfully, and her movements are those of a dancer, smooth and luxurious. Her head is always held proudly, and her posture is excellent, and she seems the picture of noble grace and bearing at barely twenty.

The gown gracing her youthful figure is a well-cut midnight blue, the color of the sky when the moon is full and the clouds are high and distant. The dress is well-made, but of a rather utilitarian style, a simple rolled neckline sweeping in a modest arc, revealing naught but the smooth skin of her throat. The dress is paneled, of a soft material, comfortable to touch, with a very wide skirt spinning out from her waistline. Beneath this skirt cut for riding are a pair of dark brown boots, cut for a lady's feet, and a pair of matching blue riding breeches which cannot be seen unless the girl is mounted. Over this, the young girl wears a black cloak of a warm material, the outline of a standing bear embroidered in fine silver thread upon the left breast.

Background 463: born to Lord and Lady Karatri, third child. One older sister, and one older brother, Perizan.

472: at age 9, shows a remarkable knack for healing, assisting healers after the battle against the Hida seige. A child prodigy.

475: is formally apprenticed to the Royal Healer and Herbalist, though her knowledge and skill far surpasses many considered fully trained.

Rumors An incredible young woman. She must be to be the King's healer at such a tender age. The young Lady Karatri is said to be an introverted scholar of herbalism with a skill in medicine that might heal the dead. Of surpassing beauty, she nevertheless is innocent and without interest in suitors. Despite being withdrawn, Eiriel Karatri has a reputation for being passionately intense, as well as the protection of her famed brother Perizan.
