Fernika grew up hearing family stories of a great-great-grandmother who became a Paladin after fleeing the armies of [[Lyras]]. Influenced perhaps by a steady diet of these and similar tales, and having failed to stick with any of her previous childhood ambitions, Fernika one day decided that a Paladin was what she too wanted to be. Disregarding the skepticism of her family and peers, Fernika has recently come to the Crossing and joined the guild there. Her family, meanwhile, awaits her return to Siksraja with every expectation that their youngest child will swiftly tire of the hard work and dedication required of a Paladin and come home to get married and help run the market stand one day soon. |

Description
You see Fernika Sfozlstraut, a Rakash.
She has a round face, sparkling moss-green eyes and a pointy nose. Her ash-blonde hair is shoulder length and wavy, and is worn in a tousled mass of locks that tumbles over her shoulders. She has fair skin and a plump figure.
She is slightly below average height for a Rakash.
She is wearing a jadeite gwethdesuan, a hammered bronze torque capped in soulstone, a supple leather coat bearing a repeated pattern of purple-limned eyes, a knitted wool tunic, a silver linen blouse, some lavender quilted leggings, a metal target shield, a woven shoulder tote, a simple belt knife and a divine charm.
Background
Fernika has spent much of her short life in Siksraja, where most of her family farms the surrounding land and sells produce to both local and more distant markets. The Sfozlstrauts are known for their small brookside apple orchard which produces a particularly fine silvery-red variety of the fruit.
After suffering a childhood accident and a protracted illness, Fernika was left sickly and largely confined to her bed, a state that continued for much of her youth despite the best efforts of a series of mystified healers. But she made an unexpected and mysterious recovery just after her fourteenth birthday, following -- so she told everyone -- a dream in which a badger and a nightingale spoke to her. It still took some time for her to build up the strength that her confinement had never allowed her to develop, and in her attempts to achieve greater independence Fernika also found herself thwarted at every turn -- or so she saw it -- by her very loving and protective family, who had lingering concerns about their youngest child's health and were also not greatly reassured by her strange talk of dreams.
And so, deeply frustrated and feeling smothered, Fernika ran away from home a little over a year ago... and has yet to return. Now she's come to Crossing and joined the Paladin Guild, perhaps on account of the stories she grew up on, or perhaps for other reasons of her own. She still has dreams, after all.
