You are Busker Sircha Rankmere of the Ilithi Infantry, an Elothean.
You have tilted almond-shaped violet eyes. Your silver hair is long and thick, and is worn in a simple, loose style.
You have black skin.
You are in your prime.
You have a tattoo of a band of jackals surrounding a small girl with a huge claymore grasped firmly in her hands on your leg.
You are in good shape.
Bedecked in multitudes of brilliantly colored silks, luxurious fox furs, fine black leathers studded with silver, unicorns, pheonixes, and jeweled nagas your eyes just don't know where to look or to stop looking. The effect is dizzying at best, overwhelming at worst and you wonder how she can carry that much and still be capable of dragging a tog around in full plate?! You find yourself wondering Trader? Empath?
Goals: Have fun with friends, relax, find a fun party in bone wolves, back-train weapons, survivals, armor just for the hell of it, become an individual of honor, integrity, and kick the creeping tendency to lie when feeling threatened., become the first Paladin-Bard, earn the title Skald, ardent skill level in all weapons/armors, attend the next great war with a more hands-on role, and bring her wisdom up to the point where she can quickly drain her tertiary skills. Seriously, been around for 60 in game years and still only 10 lessons in swimming? Tsk. Tsk.
Aspirations/Motivations Because every character needs them. Wants to become good at killing things, wants her very own HUGE private mansion err Private Ship Galleon class. Wants to buy/create a new spellbook for herself. Wants to throw an Assisted Birthday Party starring herself and have everyone (online in the game) show up. Wants all of her clothing to be made of black leather, white fox fur and have pockets big enough to hold a dagger set. Wants everything else to be made of ebony inlaid with goldbark.
Songbook
Sircha shows you a gleaming silver-bound songbook adorned with an ornate amber-jeweled naga
The elegant sheen of fine platinum is overlaid on leather to form a graceful cover, with gold inlay accenting the etched spine. In the middle of the songbook, embraced on top and bottom by separate clasps, is an expertly detailed golden naga with outstretched arms and inlaid amber eyes. The majestic beast grasps a flowing gold streamer engraved in filigree script with the words "Music not Silence, Poetry not Fate" in one hand, while the other holds a ruby carved into a rose with "Sircha" etched upon it.
There appears to be something written on it.
A silver-bound songbook reads:
Song and Silence: A Book of Enchantes to Serve Truth and Respect by Sircha Rankmere.
Inside the pages you find chapters arranged into sections all of them penned in Sircha's hand.
Your eyes fall upon the first of many songs, all seem to be freshly written. historic01

Religious Beliefs Sircha is a follower of Murrula, but heeding to practicality often turns in Hodierna and Kuniyo orbs over any other god. Having seen so many friends walk the starry road during the Gorbesh War, she believes in maintaining what many consider a very high volume of favors, she always carries favor orbs with her and often gives them a swipe or two when she feels her mind filled with experience in three or more skills.
History:
Sircha's parents pushed her towards learning instruments, poetry and song-writing from an early age. With rhyming games, and creative thinking toys around mental development. They were overjoyed when she joined the Bard's guild on it's day of opening at the very young age of 16, and supported her efforts to learn bardic music for the next 6 years.
After many years of adventuring, she became tired of her own old songs, and retired from songwriting for a great many years. She's only recently rediscovered the hobby, and takes a few moments here and there to work on her songcraft.
They never told her about their Outcaster heritage or that she was a descendant of Outcasts. She was only told that she was Elothean, and that the desert sands of Muspar'i was home. She later discovered this during the Outcaster War in Shard where she discovered she was perhaps fighting on the wrong side? As a black-skinned Elothean sworn to the Ferdahl and joined as Quartermaster to the Ilithi Infantry. Pushed to discover her own reasons for fighting, among other truths she set out into the Outcaster territory to uncover the 'truth'. The Outcaster ways were strange and she was quickly captured... but perhaps not in the correct sense. Instead of being a prisoner she was forced to work against the Ferdahl of Shard and help plan the Outcaster's armies next moves in the assault of her beloved city Shard. When she tried to steal plans or sabotage orders she was quickly caught and punished, but always returned to table often in chains because of her valuable, intimate knowledge of Shard's inner defenses.
After the war, she was eventually released and allowed to wander the Outcasts few lands, but finding much of her beloved city gone, slowly migrated back towards the Crossings.
Marriages and Love Interests
Was briefly married to Aldaren for protection because she'd angered a very wrong crowd of people, and was being hunted down and killed four times daily. After they got the idea, that killing her would get them killed. They stopped and looked for someone else to bother. Aldaren and Sircha found love in one another with their mutual time spent together and remained married for a little over a year and six months when Aldaren decided to have a love affair on the side with another woman during their marriage, deeply hurt and betrayed she divorced him over it. She had several short-lived love interests and crushes but none survived longer than a few weeks. Has been wooed and married 8 times in the past, but these marriages lasted little longer than a week to a month each.
Love interests of note, Paerr Irontalon (retired bard), Malveras. When she met Malveras, it was a moment of instant love, the meeting of two souls that knew they were perfect for each other. In a strange way, they quickly bonded and began adventuring together. He was a moon mage and made her several wonderful enchanted objects. They quickly became engaged, but Sircha was reluctant to marry again, having been burned by several would-be lovers only to wake up with her purse emptied and a pain in her heart. Since her return, she's spent several weeks traveling and asking people of the Realms if they've seen Malveras, however, her efforts have turned up nothing.
Recent suitors in year 399, Nefidyne the Ranger of Crossings has shown an interest in her.
