Appearance

You see Great Lady Karystal Na'ersresh the Master Fletcher. She appears to be a Half-Sylvan. She is taller than average and has an hourglass figure. She appears to be young and robust. She has sultry violet eyes and rosy skin. She has waist length, flowing jet black hair falling loosely around her face and adorned with a silver and amethyst barrette. She has a heart-shaped face, a classical nose and dimpled cheeks. She has a slim gold ring dangling a tiny black pearl in her right eyebrow, a blue-green scarab tattoo on her neck, and a series of alternating silver and white vaalin hoops in the ridges of both her ears.

She is wearing a braided silken ribbon choker, a pearl-beaded black cameline longcoat, a pale ivory daffodil, a vivid purple columbine, a small leaf shaped pin, a glass-beaded handflower caging dried rose petals, a sleek dark leather bodice, a blue feather-shaped charm, a yellow primrose, a sprig of wild lilac, a nightshade purple lacquered shoulder quiver bound in vaalin slung over her shoulder, a spider silk scarab-clasped backpack, some eahnor laminar armor with overlapping bands of scales, a bracelet suspending a rogue charm, a lacquered hip-satchel woven from green reeds, a glittering silver flask, a shaggy dark grey wolf fur satchel, a side-slit ashen silk skirt draped from thin leather belts, a thigh-strapped slim vaalorn kit, and a pair of black leather thigh-boots buttoned with flat dark purple pearls.

The Quiver and thigh-boots are crafted creations by Darrgo (prime).

History

Karystal lived a rough childhood. Born to a human father and sylvan mother, she has never felt as though she fit in. Her father abused her and her mother, didn't care for either of them and felt they were a burden on his life. Her mother brought her up as a sylvan as her mother wanted her to know where her true background lies. When Karystal came of age, her mother sent her away with a pocketful of change and her bow, wishing her the best and to find an accepting sylvan town. Karystal traveled through many areas, shunned for being a half-sylvan, teaching herself to hunt and live off the lands and in the forests on her own.

After years of struggling, she came upon Wehnimer's Landing and was welcomed with open arms. The first house she came across after five levels of training was House Sylvanfair. She also met Baser, a rogue, who took her in as his own, teaching her the ways of a rogue's life. He taught her how to hunt with a sword and shield, disarm and pick the locks on treasure boxes, and helped her through several trainings.

A few years later, once she was strong enough to hunt independently, she wanted to return to archery. She practiced the artisan craft of fletching and learned to make her strong arrows. She hunted successfully for several trainings but was weary of hunting alone. One day she mustered the courage to ask for help for a bounty through the Red Forest. A kind sylvan rogue offered to help her, despite being much higher in training than her. She felt humbled but accepted his help. He joined her hunt as they talked and laughed and spent the rest of the day together. Since that day they have been inseparable. That man is Felarynth.
