Features

You see Tourist Kohab Iani, Scholar of Elanthia, a Human. Kohab has a heart-shaped face with pouting lips, thick-lashed dark eyes and a small nose. Her black hair is long and straight, and is worn in a deceptively careless-looking arrangement of upswept locks held in place by a dainty platinum crescent moon haircomb set with tiny onyx chips. She has pale skin. She is short for a Human. She appears to be an adult.

Attire

Working

She is wearing a pair of reading spectacles with matte black frames, a spiked iron earcuff crafted to resemble a tangled hedge of thorns, a firestained silver band intricately engraved with whorls of storm clouds, a braided black leather bracelet with small silver studs, a silk-lined leather archer's cuff wrought with swirling platinum storm clouds, a storm-grey shawl overlaid in lace accented by dangling coins with a banded stormsilk hem, a dark leather bodice cinched with silver cord dangling at the ends with dark crystal beads, a modest black dress with long sleeves and a high collar, a scratched black leather tool belt affixed with several hooks and pouches, a brass mortician's tool trunk labeled "Tomb Raider", a spidersilk tote, a black spidersilk belt quiver, a simple belt knife, a polished black leather garter secured with a shining silver buckle, some knee-high black leather boots with thick cuffs, a large spidersilk sack and a black spidersilk backpack.

Formal

She is wearing a pair of silver-framed spectacles inlaid with damite, a firestained silver band intricately engraved with whorls of storm clouds, a twilight-hued gown of soft watersilk draped over black damask, some twilight purple nightsilk slippers with platinum-worked onyx heels and a black spidersilk backpack.

History

As she has made more of a public name for herself, small details concerning Kohab's activities (both past and present) have been documented by those who have interest in such matters. Her birth and childhood on the island of M'riss are somewhat of a mystery due to the isolation of her family home.

Early Years

Kohab has had a very rough life. Originally she was trained by her family to continue the traditions of the Barbarian guild. She was often careless and impulsive at a young age, her brother being a willing partner in crime. Nobody is sure how it happened, but at 12 years of age she was hospitalized for severe injuries. After spending three years in the care of medical professionals she was removed from their care by her brother who had given up the Barbarian ways to follow those of the Empaths. They rode a vessel to the mainland and have been there since. Despite the frequent spasms of pain, Kohab has never been happier. Though many whom knew her before can tell that something has changed within her, evidenced by her former dedication to the warrior path having been tossed aside for more scholastic studies.

A Year in the Crossings

Kohab was approached as being one of few surviving descendants, albeit far removed, of the original founders of the Order of the Black Fox. Being that her family clan lives an isolationist existence on the islands, Kohab never knew much of the old history. This knowledge rekindled her thirst for a social structure in her life and she has embraced the Order, including all that might come with it. She has the stigma of being the youngest Order Speaker, and has already begun to experience much opposition to her position. Despite this, she remains dedicated to the ways of the Order and will continue to serve the best way she knows how.

Leth Deriel: A New Home

These times were short and ended with her disappearance from the public eye so little can be noted in this area. However it can be said that Kohab shared living quarters with a roommate from the region and could be seen frequenting the forests surrounding the legendary city. Kohab was suspected to have joined either the Ranger Guild under the guide of Guildmaster Tomma, or perhaps even the Thieves Guild, and could also be seen on the roads near Shard. Having relinquished control of the Order of the Black Fox, she was confirmed as remaining in the Order under General Membership.

The Return

Having spent several years in the Forest of Night, Kohab has once again returned to civilization. She appears to be unchanged by her time in the cursed grove and continues her dedication to her studies. She claims no affiliation to any guild or organization, and maintains that she is a scholar in search of knowledge. She bears the title of Historian and has displayed an avid interest in the tombs of long dead mages, leading some to suspect her of being a Graverobber or Looter. Her current activities are unknown as well as the details surrounding her involvement with the Order of the Black Fox.

Tidbits

Kohab is an avid shortbow user, and also enjoys the use of a katar she found while hunting. She has a fondness for magical runes and charms, which she carries on her person at all times.
