Appearance
Dahna is a woman of striking features, with dark, wavy hair held back by a beaded headband. She wears vibrant, layered robes of deep crimson and indigo, adorned with coins and small bells that chime softly. Her eyes are sharp and dark, always scanning for patterns. Around her waist hangs a pouch bulging with various decks of cards and a set of thieves' tools tucked discreetly into a sash.
Mannerisms
Dahna frequently tilts her head as if listening to something no one else can hear. She speaks in metaphors involving games, luck, and the 'dealing of hands.'
Personality
Dahna is observant and cynical, preferring to let her cards speak for her. She has a dry wit and treats every encounter like a game of chance where she knows the odds. She is fiercely independent and relies on her intuition more than any book, despite her scholarly training.
Ideals
Self reliance. The only person who can truly protect you from your fate is yourself.
Bonds
I carry a deck of cards passed down from my mentor, who disappeared during a mysterious divined event. I must find them.
Flaws
I am prone to paralysis of action if the omens are not perfectly aligned, often seeing bad luck where there is only coincidence.
Quirks
Background
Dahna grew up on the move, part of a wandering troupe of entertainers who often skirted the edge of the law. While her kin practiced sleight of hand to pick pockets, Dahna discovered that her cards were more than just tools for a con. She began to see flashes of the future in the shuffle, leading her to study the arcane arts more formally to refine her natural talent. Her life was a balance between the street and the study, until a heist gone wrong forced her to flee her caravan. Using her divination magic, she managed to evade the city watch, realization dawning that she could stay one step ahead of destiny if she only looked close enough. She now operates as a freelance consultant for various underworld figures, though she always keeps her true motives and her best cards close to her chest. Her magic is a blend of traditional wizardry and the intuitive fortune telling she learned at her mother's knee.
