Appearance
You see Spider Jalika Tenretni, Secret Agent of The Locksmith Union, an Elven Ranger.
Jalika has pointed ears and silver-flecked dark eyes. Her black hair is long and straight, and is worn tied back. She has smooth skin.
She is short for a Elf.
A dangling onyx spider rests on her forehead, just above her eyes.
She is adult for an Elf.
She is holding a reinforced osage Elven war bow hand-tooled with an undulating wave pattern in her right hand. She is wearing an ebon-hued cowl, a kyanite gwethdesuan, a jadeite gwethdesuan, a gleaming animite key, an animite spider-clasped baldric, a dark suede lootsack, a scuffed traveler's pack, a snugly wrapped twilight-black leather corset laced with an animite chain, some fitted shadow-black leathers, an unadorned cambrinth armband, a crocodile-skin buckler, some jagged rock crystal knuckleguards, some archer's gloves, an onyx spider ring, a spidersilk tote, a claymore sheath, a dark gem pouch, a pair of soft black leather pants with side laces, a simple quiver, some steel-toed footwraps with silver buckles, and a pair of soft soled leather sandals.
History
Jalika left her farmland home just north of Kaerna Village as soon as she was sure she could be accepted into a guildhall. Traveling on foot to The Crossing, she quickly made inquiries as to the Rangers Guild and joined their ranks.
She worked for many years studying mostly under Kalika's watchful gaze and became an avid swordsman, but struggled with several bouts of sickness which strained and eventually ended her marriage to the Ranger Dritzfury. With a few years of relative health behind her most of her empaths believed her to be in the clear but she took a turn for the worse and found herself walking down the Starry Road. Though some believe it to be a hallucination, she swears that Damaris met her along this road, and promised to return her to Elanthia if she would help take care of children and the young she met along the way.
Swearing to this agreement, Jalika woke to find herself near a streambed, somewhat changed, but very much alive. She immediately traveled north to the town of Langenfirth to speak with Tolle and began her journey with the Rangers once again. Picking up his favored bow, she worked harder than ever, focusing on the arts of archery, sleight of hand, and elemental magics.
To fulfill her promise to Damaris she began a small group of Rangers called The Band, who use "aquired" goods and wealth to support the studies and well-being of young ones just starting out in the guild. She also became a sister in the Locksmith Union.
