The Lore of Xia Storm (Password Protected)

Appearance

Raised from birth among the reclusive druids of the Ghanjari circle, Xia stands slightly shorter than six feet in height. This may appear misleading because she has sprouted horns, appearing like small branches or tree limbs, which is a trademark feature of her Baene heritage. Her build, however, is quite lithe – but again not immediately apparent due to the growths of mold and decaying matter along her robes.

Xia prefers to let her hair grow long, sometimes tangled because it “goes where it will”. Originally it was white, but recently it has turned lavender, and appears to be dying deeper (or brighter) as she gets older. Not surprisingly, her eyes have also attained the light-purple lavender color.

She was named “Xia of the Storm” early in her childhood by other druids. The meaning has never been answered, but it may be related to her off-kilter, unpredictable personality, which can often be humorous, but equally forceful.

Then again, it could have something to do with her ring: a strange, dark, leather-and-scale band of flesh, centered with a sparkling lavender eye, which she calls Téarmaí. Xia is often seen whispering to it during moments of communion.
