the soul.

the personality Saranai is typically seen to be incredibly drowsy and lackadaisical throughout the day, opting to doze whenever possible if forced to be up during daytime hours. She is known to be more formal and reserved around these time periods, her words being short and to the point. She resents the sun and will be seen typically hissing at it, cursing in her mother tongue at Azim.During night time is when Saranai slinks out of her shell and lets all inhibitions go, being much more energetic, mischievous and sociable towards others. One would think she is comprised of two different personas, considering her rather stiff demeanor in the earlier parts of the day.A devout follower of Nhaama, saranai takes her practices seriously and thus scorns those that follow Azim's beliefs.
the appearance Upon initial inspection of the Xaela woman, it is evident that her pale flesh is covered with a series of ebony scales, growing in frequency and intensity near her legs and arms. Her horns are medium-sized and plated with scales, a headpiece symbolizing Nhaama adorned atop her head alongside the scaly fixtures. Her hair is a blonde tone, tinted with a peach hue that compliments her amber irises.In the daytime, Saranai is seen adorned in fabrics from head to toe, shielding most of her skin from the harsh rays of Azim's sun whenever she is forced to leave her chambers. Her clothing items of choice in the daytime is seen as regal in nature, a signature of her status amongst the Kagon tribe. She is traditionally affixed with various silks, fabrics, chains and other jewels befitting a nomad of high status, having gotten the items ported from Yanxia for her own personal use.Her attire in the night time is comprised of looser fabric that hugs her curves, the woman indulging in the cool air against her bare skin in the later parts of the evening. The colors of her silks and other fabrics consist of dark purples, lilacs, and other shades in order to blend in with the landscapes of the desert in the night.
& key items.
important items commonly found in their inventory.

She is only really seen with this item when she is expecting to be in combat; otherwise it is typically found within her place of residency, or getting a cleaning at one of the shoppes in town.

medicinal supplies. As Saranai is no healer, the Xaela woman keeps a stash of herbs and poisons on her person in case of a dire emergency. Most times she keeps a series of mana and health poultices, healing balm, antidotes for various poisons, and an assortment of hand-crafted poisons that have an arrangement of effects depending on its use.

Hingan Tobacco & Pipe. Saranai is seen carrying a small wooden box on her person, the item engraved with silver etchings of flowers native to the Steppe, a token of her homeland. Within it holds a few pouches of different varieties of Hingan tobacco, as well as a smoking pipe and sparking stones.

embroidered choker. A mysterious trinket that Saranai always keeps attached to her neck. it is extremely rare the woman is seen without this necklace on. should anyone ask why the woman carries it with her, she seems to lack the desire to want to comment on it.
