Name: Karanissa Delessil<br/>Race: Elf<br/>Class Priestess  (Lv. 4)<br/>Religion: Goddess of Love<br/>Hair: Blue<br/>Eyes: Violet<br/>Skin: Pale, creamy complexion<br/>Age: 114<br/>Height: 5'2"<br/>Weight: 98<br/>Alignment: CG<br/><br/>Karanissa is beautiful but unimposing.  The kind of girl one might not notice at first, quiet and unassuming.  Yet within her violet eyes rests a calm assurance, a confidence borne of training and some experience.  She does not have the strong walk of a warrior or the nimble flexibility of a rogue, but her gait exudes a quiet sensuality and grace.  She is short, shorter than most elves, but she is comfortable with that, confident in every facet of her body.  There is an easiness about her, some mystical or perhaps just natural aura about her that draws out even the most terse and guarded of people.  She has a slight scent of lilac, her favorite scent, and i always well-dressed in brightly colored, finely embroidered robes with her goddess' holy symbol always displayed prominantly hanging on a plain cord above her heart.  Her steel blue hair hangs in a long, thick, intricate braid down to the small of her back.  And on her left hand, still bright and new, rests the symbol of her own marriage, a simple white gold ring set with a beautiful bloodstone.<br/><br/><br/>Str: 9  (Weight 35/90)<br/>Dex: 10<br/>Con: 11 (System Shock 75%, Res.
