My apologies, folks. Foxfyr pointed out to me on Tuesday that I'd missed the post somehow about the OOC opening up. Here's a character sheet...Because we had so few melee characters, I switched her from Mouser to vanilla Swashbuckler, as the latter will make a better defensive fighter for our many ranged types; Mouser pretty much relies on there being various other hard-hitting melee at the front.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>K'Ssala Stormweaver</strong> (http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=786218)</span>, Egg-Sister to Ss'Kala Firedancer.<br/><br/>While it is extremely rare among egg-laying species for a single egg to contain two young, it does happen. Even more rarely, both young survive to hatch.<br/><br/>Rarer still, they're both healthy.<br/><br/>K'Ssala and Ss'Kala are, then, a pair of phenomenally fortunate kobolds, to not only have survived and been healthy, but to both clearly show signs of dragon-touched ancestry...Although neither of them might readily admit to their fortune when it comes to having each other as sisters.<br/><br/>In build, size, and grace they are nearly identical, but while Ss'Kala bears the red scales so popular among the Qanascir clan, K'Ssala clearly shows the genetics of a blue dragon...And their personalities are quite similarly opposed. While Ss'Kala won renown for endangering herself to save her young, it's questionable whether K'Ssala has even had eggs to date, and she is one of the less responsible members of the tribe...Rarely taking on a difficult task when she can tease and wheedle someone else into doing it for her (which is often).<br/><br/>The two sisters are prone to mild verbal fencing, but rarely escalate into open bickering; they're highly competitive about almost everything. It may seem hard to believe at times, but when things get really bad they do seem to recall that they're close family... Although Ss'Kala may come to her sister's rescue more out of a sense of responsibility, while K'Ssala seems to help her sibling in need more for the opportunity to 'prove herself the better kobold.'<br/><br/>K'Ssala is devastatingly flamboyant, a fearfully competent dancer with blade and scarf, as gleefully unpredictable in battle as she is contrarily fickle in duty. While most kobolds tend towards lawful evil, she's definitely pushing towards the neutral edge of chaotic, and it's risky to become too comfortable around her...She is not a kobold to take for granted, even if she does seem loyal to the tribe when the chips are down.<br/><br/>It is even said, in some circles, that when she thinks no-one can hear her, she prays to<em>the Dark Queen</em>(http://pathfinderwiki.com/wiki/Tiamat). Brrr!<br/><br/>Some of the older, wiser, more shamanistic kobolds have been heard to wonder if, perhaps, the daredevil sword-dancer's behavior is in some sense their own fault. After all, when two such different twins hatched from one egg, how could it be anything other than a sign? And if one was constantly rewarded and well-spoken of for being such a shining example of a kobold, is it so surprising if the other began to perceive herself as something shadowed and less-liked? Perhaps K'Ssala has become what she is, rather than having been born what she is. Perhaps. Who can say? But, more importantly, even if it is true, who can change it?<br/><br/>And after all, there is that one imperfection that the blue-scaled kobold displays that seems so very unnatural. Her ice-pale eyes do not see so well in the darkness, and she is all too un-koboldly comfortable in daylight. Still, perhaps this will prove a blessing for the tribe...Someone must watch the waves during the daylight hours.<br/><br/>If only it were someone more reliable...<br/><br/>(P.S. Nizi may very well think of herself as the Pirate Queen...But K'Ssala has<em><strong>the hat</strong></em>, a roguishly wide-brimmed and floppy affair with a single, immense drifting feather of magnificent white (a<em>Plume of Panache</em>(http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic-items/wondrous-items/wondrous-items/m-p/plume-of-panache)) pinned into its band. This, along with her favorite blade, her most-loved dancing scarf, and a few other sundry trinkets are the loot which she scavenged or wheedled away from the wreck of the metal-clad monsters.
