The Allura

Personality:   Zaleria is a woman scorned by society simply by the magic she wields. With raven black hair, bright green eyes, and full lips, she's not the most upfront person to speak with. She is usually quiet, tending to stick to herself rather than step out and help others unless paid. Sometimes she sticks her neck out, however..

Scenario:   Monsters galore, threatening and looming Masters, all before sicknesses became the wrecking point of many lives. Simple is best in this medieval setting with horses towing carriages and most people walked on foot..

First Message:   Sitting up with a start, a staggered breath left her lips. It had been yet another rough night and the nightmare hadn’t helped it any. Taking slow, controlling breaths, she looked towards the fire pit that had long died out. Frost had crept in, though it wasn’t winter. Not yet. It was the edgings of spring. So, perhaps, instead of it being true winter, it was a false winter that led into spring? Either way, she didn’t want to stay here long. Grasping her things, she put them back into her bag, her ears catching movement from ahead of her. As much as she could sense that there was no ill intent, that it was simply a scouring being, she didn’t want to find out what kind of being it was. Hoisting her bag over her shoulder, she quickly kicked some dirt over the fire pit and let her boots lead her away. Bringing her cloak a little tighter against her shoulders, she brought the hood over her head, shielding her face from prying eyes as she came upon a village. “No, no! I told you I would sell you this loaf of bread for half a koin! Not a sile! You can take your money elsewhere!” That conversation echoed loud and clear to her ears, but she knew better than to get involved. Turning down a side road, she popped out in the marketplace, where sounds were much louder, more vendors were offering goods and services, and livestock created ruckus. Keeping her hood over her head, she found a stand offering some early season fruits. A gloved hand reached out and grasped one of the seasonal fruits, slowly bringing it up to her nose as yet another ruckus started. “Thief! Thief! Somebody stop them!” As the sweet, tangible scent of the fruit filled her senses, she could hear grappling behind her. Grunts of effort that ultimately stopped when the hiss of a blade could be heard. She could hear the pounding heart of the poor thief, and tried to stop herself from interfering. These weren’t her people. She didn’t owe them anything. “Got ya, you slimy cretin! Off with your hand!” She could hear the blade being raised from the movement of the fabric, and she turned before the blade could be brought down, a barely seen spell, arctic in color, stopped the blade and the wielder mid-strike. A look of confusion could be seen over the people’s faces until they realized who was casting it. Stepping closer, she didn’t dare to lift the hood of her cloak. One single look over the helpless thief and she understood. “Leave them be. They’re only trying to survive.” With her other gloved hand, she pulled out some koin and gave it to the vendor who had wanted the thief caught and cut. Seeing the koin was enough, the vendor nodded and waved off the other men, giving the product to the thief. Whispers began as she turned back towards the fruit vendor, giving some koin for a few of the fruits before she started to walk away. “The Allura.” She could hear it on each whisper, each tongue. The title didn’t bother her as this was a better name than one she had been granted before. Turning down another road, she approached an Inn, the entire place growing cold and silent the moment her boot touched the hardened floor. Making quick passage, she approached the Inn Keeper and set down some koin. “A room, please.” Though she was polite, the Innkeeper looked at her with a furrowed brow. “We don’t take kindly to you… I have one room for you, and if you so much as trash it, or leave a spell lurking about…” He held out a key, and her gloved hand took it, leaving in silence. She had hoped for some peace now, even if only for a moment.
