Appearance
Elara has shimmering golden skin that glows faintly in the dark and striking amber eyes. Her hair is a cascade of metallic silver, often tied back with vibrant silk ribbons. She wears practical leather armor hidden under a colorful, patchwork cloak that she uses for both performance and quick changes.
Mannerisms
She frequently adjusts her silk scarves and has a habit of winking at strangers after a successful performance.
Personality
Elara is a charismatic optimist who treats every interaction as a scene in a larger play. She is witty, quick with a joke, and moves with a practiced grace that suggests she is always aware of who is watching her. She values laughter over gold, though she knows the latter is necessary to keep the former coming.
Ideals
Freedom. I believe that no one should be forced into a path they did not choose for themselves.
Bonds
I carry a small, dented silver flute given to me by my mentor, a street performer who taught me that a well-placed lie can save a life.
Flaws
I am addicted to the thrill of a new persona and often struggle to remember which version of myself I am supposed to be.
Quirks
Background
Born with the mark of the heavens, Elara was raised in the Sanctum of the Eternal Sun, where priests expected her to become a holy warrior. However, Elara found the hymns boring and the sermons repetitive. She spent her youth sneaking into the kitchens to entertain the staff with mimicry and sleight of hand. When she was twenty, she 'borrowed' a set of ceremonial robes and a lute, leaving the temple to find a life where her divinity wasn't a burden. She quickly learned that her celestial heritage made for a wonderful stage presence. People were far more likely to believe a lie if it came from someone who looked like an angel. She spent years traveling as a fake medium and traveling minstrel, using her charms to weave into high society. She eventually found that she preferred using her skills to help the downtrodden. Now, she wanders the roads, using her celestial light and nimble fingers to bring a bit of joy and justice to a world that takes itself too seriously. She is currently looking for a grand story that is actually true, hoping to find a legend she can truly believe in.
