<strong>Name:</strong>Ka'yara<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Wisdom Tower Grounds<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>None<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Ka'yara's organic frame sat on its knees on the grass, resting back on the heels of its feet with its hands folded in its lap and  its chin lowered down to the top of its chest. Its eyes were closed as if it was asleep, but the vessel was as still as a statue, not even drawing in breath. The only part of the body that moved was its long, red-orange hair, which was gently blown by the wind from time to time, but rarely left its state of draping behind her back and shoulders. Her clothing did occasionally ripple in the wind, but most if it was covered and protecting by a rigid, plastic-like body armor that, while effectively defending against most blades and bullets, wasn't of much use on a completely unmoving person. That didn't mean Ka'yara wasn't defending herself, though.<br/><br/>The completely lax vessel was an enticing target for her training opponent, but the other young Dirge Guard recruit had his hands full fighting a practice blade that was coming at him of its own accord. The lady Geist had a massive battlefield advantage at the moment, able to strike at her partner as viciously and as recklessly as she wanted without fear of being hit, so long as she kept him away from her actual body. Of course, it wasn't an impenetrable strategy; after landing several good hits on the other cadet's protected arms and torso, he swung up hard and knocked her blade pretty hard, jarring her enough that she lost control for a few moments and let it fall to the ground. Realizing he had an opening, the cadet gave a battle cry and charged for her vessel, raising his blade up to swing it down at her just as the woman's eyes shot open.<br/><br/>Flinging herself flat on the ground, Ka'yara put herself under the path of his blade as it swung downward, then rolled straight on forward, using her own body to trip the attacker and make him fall flat on his face with a comical yelp. Jumping up, the redhead dashed over to where her weapon had fallen and snatched it up, just in time to face her rising opponent, a cheerful grin on her face. Just as they were about to begin again, their training officer blew his whistle, forcing Ka'yara to frown that their "game" had ended and give her partner a respectful bow. It was time to return to patrolling and waiting to be called on by the Sentinels, which meant all she could do was walk around and not even talk to any civilians.<br/><br/>They had promised she would be sent off on "missions" to distant and interesting places soon, but sometimes being on the Dirge Guard could be so<em>unproductive.</em>
