Affiliations

Eriniel Erori'ora is currently the Vice Speaker for the Tavern Troupe Performing Order and also a devout follower of Hodierna and Chadatru, equally.

Appearance

Eriniel has an oval face, pointed ears, sparkling blue-green eyes, a small nose and dimples. Her ash-blonde hair is very long and wavy, and is worn in a tousled, finger-combed style. She has tanned skin and a slender figure. And, she is tiny and young by Elven standards.

Attire

Eriniel is usually seen wearing a diamond stud, a pair of white gold earstuds, a nine strand yellow gold necklace studded with tiny diamonds, a carved amber pendant of a roaring lion's head, a polished black leather chirurgeon's bag, an ale-brown beaded-deerskin haversack, a charlatan's medicine bag, a hooded robe of soft velvet in deep shades of brown, a tawny leather bodice fastened with amber acorn clasps, a burnished gold wristband embossed with a smooth scroll design, a delicate cambrinth-studded silver chain bracelet with an intricate platinum clasp, a golden unicorn ring, a braided silver and gold ring set with a sleeping cambrinth lioness, a fine cotton hip-scarf dyed varying shades of blue, a Bard blue gem pouch embroidered with the crest of the Tavern Troupe Performing Order, an oiled leather herb pouch tooled with a crouching mountain lion, a platinum lockpick ring, some darkened leather leggings laced with braided horse hair, a leather thigh bag heavily-beaded in cambrinth with the image of a leaping dolphin and some side-laced boots.

Family

Eriniel's father, Lamar, has traveled beyond Kermoria since her mother's death at the early part of the Gorbesh War, so she has not seen him in more than twenty-five years. Her younger sister, Myrrhiel (Myrrhle, to all who know her), is near enough in appearance to be her twin and is a Trader based in Crossing, but is only seen on occasion as her trading takes her far and wide.

History

Born in Wingtip Cove along the coast southeast of Leth Deriel, Eriniel is the older of two sisters, born to Sunara, a Moon Mage, and Lamar, a Trader.

Eriniel had a hard time accepting the Kaldar when they first arrived in Kermoria, since one of her earliest memories is of Gorbesh raiders burning the small village of Wingtip Cove to the ground, murdering many of her friends and relatives. Luckily, her family lived on the mountain peak above the village---to aid her mother's studies---enabling the sisters to hide undetected in the treetops until the invaders left. Miraculously, her mother and father survived the battle. Yet still, her mother died of disease in the aftermath. And, when the Kaldaran migration began, following the Gnomic prophet Trimbolt, several were left in the Cove by pirates who ransomed their belongings in return for passage to a safe harbor. Among them, although he may not remember a very young Elven maiden, she clearly remembers the stately presence of one named Hanryu. And, so she eventually befriended them before they moved on and grew to admire their hard work ethics and family unity.

Her mother's death inspired Eriniel to travel to Crossing in search of training as an Empath. After gaining many ranks as a healer, she decided to travel---first to Riverhaven, then Therenborough, Aesry Surlaenis'a, and Ratha---only to return to Crossing a year later.

She has now taken up residence there and lives in the quiet Empath neighborhood of Willow Walk.
