Background
Chinoa was raised in the east, however her upbringing and past is something she seldom talks about. Inducted into the clerics guild at an early age, she proceeded to engage with her instructors and learn at a rate they found suprising. However soon after her graduation they were to be even more suprised.
She met with the cleric Bambina, along with her childhood friend Naea, and was warned of the coming of Lyras. It was during this meeting that her interest in her lost Rakash heritage was sparked, and a passion proceeded to consume her for knowledge. Along with Naea she learnt what she could of the Rakash past, their traditions and customs, as well as about their Gods. It was at this point she rejected her old teachings of the thirteen and took up worship of the Rakash Gods, in one fell swoop taking up what the Temple would consider heretical worship.
The time after the meeting with Bambina and during her quest for knowledge, she headed north with Naea to spread word of the imminent invasion. It was in Theren that she met with the pack Alpha Alexii. Soon after both her and Naea had been inducted into the Augstawne Girene Dzirta, and had agreed to help the pack into a new and brighter future.
Chinoa is softly spoken and passionate about her Gods, always eager to help guide young Rakash and teach them of thier heritage. Currently residing in Siksraja, she has been known to move between there and the Crossing frequently as she pays visits on her friends and loved ones.
