Character General Details Name: high priestess name: Radeah, real name unknown. Age: 29 Gender: female Race: human Profession: high priestess, often claims to be healer. She does know how to do healing potions and use herbs but mainly she says this only to cover up her past. Spell Caster: yes Steamskilled: no Appearance Details Overall Appearance Description: Radeah is a beautiful woman to say at least. Some have stated there is no flaw in her and the temple staff believes that is is due to her connection with the god spirit. Her hair is long, smooth and sandy blond. Her eyes are light green and the stare in them is captivating and wise. She, however, rarely seems present. Only when she decides to speak she will seem present, even then there is some odd vibe coming from her. Most people never know how to be around her, whether they know about the spirit or not. When Radeah smiles, it rarely seems sincere and many do not know how to take it but most are pretty much happy that she at least tries to smile to take the edge away. Radeah is tall and slender. She has a curvy and graceful body. Her walking is a pleasure to watch as she is smooth like a dancer when it comes to her moves she has apparent serenity in her. She was taught to hide her emotions from the public eye, which makes her seem rather distant, even cold. When enraged she usually, however, shows it and this is when she is scary. She will roar and scream, sometimes she is ranting to herself like a mentally ill person which is explained by the essence of the spirit in her. Most do not know about the god spirit so they will most likely wet themselves in front of the nut case who is trying to kill or hurt them. Her behaviour is very unpredictable. An important fact about her appearance is that she is immune to the void defects due to the god spirit, who is protecting her, seeing it more useful to maintain a beautiful appearance and health. Personal Details Sexuality: attracted to the opposite sex, mainly to her own race Marital Status: single Education: Radeah learned everything she needed inside the protective walls of her temple. There priests and priestesses educated her on politics, gods, goddesses, magic and everything you could imagine. The temple had vast resources book wise, preserving one of the largest collections of literature on the planet. Most of her life she has spent in the temple learning behaviour, routines and knowledge from there but occasionally the priests would send her to other cities to gain more out of life. Due to this she truly has vast knowledge of things but technology has never interested her. In magic she was educated about every aspect of it but she was pushed towards void magic because the priests saw it was her destiny. It was something she could not understand at the time and she was more interested in earth magic, which they allowed her to study but made her do extra work on void. Academic weaknesses: steam skills are poor. She knows very little about technology. She only comprehends differences between some ships from different regions. Main goal (dream) at this point in time: Radeah’s main goal is to hurt the royal family of Istria. She sees it is her destiny and she can not fight it. She also tries to fight against her mental issues and her goal is to overcome her issues. Overall Personality Description: Radeah’s personality is difficult to define because her mind is pretty much a divided personality, like that of a mentally ill. Her natural side is submissive and silent. It is like a light summer breeze compared to a hurricane. She never wished to harm but, once the spirit connected with her, her personality has started to change to remind the personality of the spirit. The mental strain caused by this has made her slightly insane. She is unpredictable behaving nice almost randomly. She can become enraged in a blink of an eye. The spirit causes her to become more sinister, cold and brutal. She will push forward with incredible determination and she will not stand authority. If she wants to be nice, she will purr like a cat. But the thing about her is that she is much like a cat licking another cat’s throat. You never know if she is trying to get her teeth to your artery or if she is just being nice. Radeah walks her own path, often created by the spirit, and doesn’t respond well to anyone offering her money to do something for them unless the spirit says she should take the offer. It’s hard to gain her interest. Background Details History/Background: Radeah was born in the slums of a big city called Ethreas. The city is located in dry savannas near a desert. When she was only five years old the priests of the temple of Aradiassos came knocking on her parents’ door. They claimed the high priest had seen a vision of the girl living in this house and that she was to be taken to the care of the temple. She would become a mighty high priestess and the channel of a goddess. Convinced by the high authority of the priests the parents gave their daughter to them, never to see her again. In the temple the priests named her Radeah, making her eventually forget what her parents had once named her. For years she asked about her parents but no one ever told her about them or shy she had been taken to the temple, unlike other children she saw playing on the streets. Radeah eventually stopped asking questions, seeing it pointless. The memory of her parents started to fade as she was forced to focus on studies. The temple was located on a hill where she could observe the city with jealousy. A normal life tempted her but she had no way out and she was under constant surveillance. When she became a teenager she was feeling too suppressed. Then one night she was combing her hair in front of a mirror when her reflection suddenly moved differently than she did. Radeah froze thinking maybe she had seen something that was not real but then she saw a dark smoke creep into the mirror, licking her reflection. There was no smoke in her room but her reflection was caressed by it. That is when she first heard it; a whisper calling out her name. The whisper grew into a normal voice, soft yet commanding. This creature, voice of black mist, called itself Mertenah. It talked to her like to a sister or to a lover, depending what it said. It was beyond strange and it scared Radeah. Radeah ran out of her room to the ceremony hall and threw herself in front of the statues of gods and goddesses, praying for the insanity to go away. The high priest happened to stroll into the hall and saw the child cry and pray. He walked up to her asking what was wrong. She jumped into his arms, crying and shaking. She told about what she had seen and the priest tried calming her down. He explained to her that this spirit was her destiny and that it was a part of her. The priest managed to calm her down by explaining it was a gift to have the spirit around but she feared for months till the spirit started to connect with her better. Radeah grew together with the spirit and it affected her mentality and personality a great deal. She was seen talking to herself or to her reflection. Priests and priestesses respected her a lot and only the high priestesses and priests didn’t step away from her when she approached. Even the royal family of Ethreas was smart enough to be cautious in front of the innocent looking young woman. The higher temple staff encouraged her to get involved of politics and she did as they asked. All her life she was held separate from other children studying magic and she was hid like a secret of the government. But she also travelled a lot, gaining experience from all over the world. She, however, felt disconnected to the world and as she grew she got used to it. The only companion she had was the spirit that told her to do things for it. They were small favors at first. It asked to light a candle to remember it in prayers. Then it asked her to take bread to the high priestess. But slowly the favors changed to more demanding ones. Radeah felt like she had a split personality. It gnawed on her mind like cancer. Only when she used magic she felt better. Finally the spirit told her to leave the temple. It told her to leave during the night, without anyone noticing. It wanted her to travel to Istria, the victorious rival city. It told her to kill and she had no choice but to leave on the journey. Her rage is directed to the royal family of Istria, along some of its officials and citizens. The priests of her temple taught her to carry resentment towards them and the spirit in her has only strengthened it for some unknown reason.
