<strong>Name: </strong>Ihaana.<br/><strong>Player:</strong>meikle (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=14894)<br/><strong>Gender &amp; Species:</strong>Lady Aasimar.<br/><strong>Physical Description:</strong>Ihaana is about five-foot-ten with an athletic build.  She has dark hair and dark eyes.  She wears simple metal piercings all over her body; even her face is extensively pierced.  Most of her body is tattooed; a golden ring surrounded by tiny stars is tattooed around her head to resemble a halo.  Also present are various scars and brands, most of which integrate into the patterns of her tattoos.<br/><strong>Occupation:</strong>Knight of the Post.<br/><strong>Faction:</strong>The Society of Sensation.<br/><strong>Place of Residence:</strong>A three-room flat in the Hive.<br/><strong>Place of Birth:</strong>In a temple-city on some mad Prime world.<br/><strong>Date of Birth:</strong>Two decades back, give or take.<br/><br/><strong>Alignment:</strong>Neutral; Ihaana doesn't participate in the Good/Evil, Law/Chaos thing.<br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Ihaana is a daredevil, a risk-taker, and a rebel.  She rejects authority and defines her own morality; she fetishizes the concept of self-definition through physical reconstruction.  She's a reliable friend, but she has a mean streak, and she's the kind of person who burns bridges sometimes as quickly as she can build them.<br/><strong>History:</strong>Wouldn't you like to know?  Here's the dark of it: Ihaana's pa was a priest and her ma was a Celestial-born lady with bad taste; Ihaana was raised into that faith, and not just as a follower, but as some sort of ideal of virtue -- like her mother'd been, a divine grace blessed on the population.  It didn't sit too well with Ihaana; she didn't take to the life, and the more intensely her parents tried to inflict their restrictive faith, the more intensely she rebelled.  For all their barmy talk of purity and faith and love, it didn't keep 'em from declaring her anathema and exiling her out of city and out of their lives -- granted, she may have gone overboard, getting the Bleeding Sigil of the despised Eblis tattooed onto her palms.  Escape was just a portal away -- and she found Sigil as a meek, aimless teen some five years ago.<br/><strong>Ons &amp; Offs (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=78845.msg3460234):</strong>Ihaana is a devout masochist (not necessarily with any other baggage that might imply.)<br/><strong>What was your last contribution to the Sensorium?</strong>Ihaana maintains a collection of the sensations of having her various body modifications applied; the most recent features a branding session, during which Ihaana had a spiral burnt into her upper arm.<br/><strong>What experience in the Sensorium have you been intimidated, but curious, to try?</strong>Ihanna has been working up the courage to immerse herself in a recorded experience of one woman's long-awaited and well-received homecoming after decades apart from her family, though she wouldn't admit as much to anybody.<br/><strong>In what three ways would you most aid an adventuring party?</strong>Ihaana knows Sigil and it's people; she's a competent criminal with all that implies; she can manage an inkling of magic, though she isn't good at much outside of illusion.<br/><strong>In what way might you hinder an adventuring party?</strong>Ihaana is innately self-destructive; she considers it an important part of her personal growth.  Ihaana might be a dangerous traveling companion because she considers "in harm's way" to be a good place to live, and will often to choose to take the reckless and dangerous path over the thoughtful and safe approach.  It's not a death wish, but it's close.
