JEKODI & NETREIS BAETREIRA
This info is for Jekodi only at the moment, but she and Netreis share Key Info, most Physiology, and Backstory. Once Kodi is established I hope to also RP Treis.
Name: Jekodi Baetreira
Full Titles: Daughter of Sailous and Traem
Nickname/Alias: Kodi
KEY INFORMATION:
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Race: Halfling
Social Status: Nomad
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Height: 3' 6"
Weight: slim
Date of Birth: 14th Day of Springrise - 2241, Year of Melancholy
Date of Death: Not dead yet
Clan: Levara
Current Home: Travelling
PHYSIOLOGY:
Build: Slim
Hair: Auburn. Chin length bangs, shorter hair in back
Eyes: Brown
Skin: Pale, but not ghostly
Identifying Marks: blue geometric tattoos on arms.
Appearance: Identical to her sister. Usually has her eyes slightly narrowed and brow furrowed (like she's always concentrating deeply... but that's just how she looks). Pretty enough, in a normal sort of way. Looks young.
Clothing: Breeches and a long tunic, sometimes arm bands, sometimes short dress over the breeches.
Weaponry: Axe or sword, though she's not skilled with either beyond basic self-defense. Knows enough about bows not to severely damage herself.
Prized Possessions: Her journal, which is mostly notes on plants, animals, people, and puzzles. Anything important enough for her to worry she won't remember. Her old one was lost, but she has procured a new one.
Hygiene: Good, except her hands which she tries to keep pristine so as not to smudge her books.
Voice: Sounds young. Otherwise unremarkable.
This is Kodi's drawing of Netreis. Imagine Treis with slightly shorter hair, a humbug expression, and a green corset - there you have Kodi.
QUALITIES AND FLAWS:
Strengths: Remembering trivia and ideas. Loves learning and stories.
Fears: Family dying. Forgetting something important. Not amounting to much.
Weaknesses: Not athletic. Not naturally optimistic or sociable, although she tries.
Intelligence: Exceptional in terms of remembering concepts and making logical connections. Fairly creative. Average at remembering specific details (excepting things she finds especially fascinating) or spellings. Slightly below average intuition in things not academic. Not exceptional in musical or artistic talent, though her drawings are usually accurate if not beautiful.
Languages: Common. Can recognize most greetings and maybe manage to not mangle the return. (I saw there was some debate on whether even this is okay... I think it would be weird if a nomad couldn't manage this much, so I'll leave it until told otherwise)
Profession: Traveller. Hopeful apprentice mage. Slowly becoming a professional fisher to survive...
ETHICS AND MOTIVATIONS:
Personality: Worrywart. Needs to be thinking about something or working on multiple small tasks (which is why fishing can make her irritated). Kind, but wary of strangers. Not naturally optimistic or sociable, although she tries. Very goal-oriented. In long term things she can get tunnel vision, but short term she's easily distracted by new ideas. Perhaps a bit dependent on her sister, Netreis, and sometimes when she's nervous Kodi tends to act more like her sister (hey, if being overly peppy works...). Not awkward with people, but not particularly good with them. Her responses tend to be either not thought out at all or overly so. No matter how nervous or calm she is, Kodi has a sarcastic streak and likes to have witty comebacks for anything people throw at her.
Religion or Cults: She believes in and knows at least some things about all the pantheon, but only particularly worships Silas and occasionally Crusade, as that is her sister's favored god.
Alignment: Neutral Good
Short Term Goals: Find someone to teach her Thaumaturgy, and perhaps the basics of any other magic she can find
Long Term Goals: Become skilled enough to return to and protect her caravan, as a Cilpen of old - with powerful magic at her command.

Unsure of: None
Wary of: None
Afraid of: None
Disliked: None
Hated: None
BACKSTORY:
Jekodi and Netreis are twin sisters, daughters of Sailous and Traem, and members of the Levara caravan. Like many Halfling twins, they grew up inseparable. Treis was the troublemaker of the two, the one with clever ideas and pranks. Kodi, cautious by nature, did most of the planning to make sure they never got into too much trouble. Both were intelligent and curious, but Kodi more so. Treis had more natural grace and athleticism, and excelled in their combat lessons. They were looked after by their elder cousin, Claurice, and both had crushes on him at some point during their preteen years.
Kodi was considered as a potential apprentice to the Cilpen, but she didn't have enough natural concentration at that age to be chosen. She was left with an admiration, however, and began to believe the Cilpen's tales of magic. (To be clear, she didn't learn anything! NOT chosen, knows no magic, Cilpen don't know any anyway)
Both fiercely independent, the girls managed to obtain their own small wagons by splitting their elder sister's when she married into another caravan.
The girls would often sneak away from the caravan at night to explore the towns they stopped at. Although Treis was the more outgoing of the pair, both could get on a person's good side quickly. They had their fair share of flirting with young men until they grew old enough to stop lest one of their flirtations be taken as serious, though for Treis the habit was harder to break.
One night, late in the fall, a thief managed to get past the Cilpen's 'circle of illusion' and raid the caravan. No one awoke, and no one was killed or even injured. Their supplies were devastated, however, and in anticipation of the difficult winter ahead many of the youths who could fend for themselves but not benefit the caravan dispersed. Treis and Kodi were among them. Although they wanted to leave together along with Claurice, their parents insisted that they take the opportunity to find their own paths - separately. Treis decided to follow a lifelong fascination with the elves into the deep woods, to learn their ways. Kodi, thirsting for greater knowledge, decided to hunt down any real magic she could find and learn it. Unlike Treis, she knew of no particular destination and so went to the Crossroads in search of rumors that would lead her to a master.
INSPIRATIONS:
None in particular, although there was a series I read that had a delightful idea of nomads that my image of caravan life comes from.
My in-game name is: Serfla707
If you see anything that doesn't fit the Lore, let me know! I tried to be as accurate as I could, but there's only so much I could find without talking to people live.
Events since (summed up in a list):
Immediately upon arriving in Crossroads, got frightened by the Festival of Blades.
Heard rumors of a storytelling event in Thiil and travelled there.
Listened to and told stories (Hers will get added to this journal at some point).
Found out from Aracena that she should go to Vigil's Rest to learn about magic.
Travelled to Vigil's Rest on foot.
At Vigil's Rest met and was warned off learning anything by first Elrohir then Tzemik.
Insisted. Was denied. Insisted. Was threatened.
Insisted. Was told to leave and find Cloud at Havarda or Athryl in Thiil.
Snuck in. Was REALLY threatened.
Left.
Returned to Vigil's Rest to try and see the lake serpent Tzemik had mentioned.
Got lost, then blacklisted from Vigil's Rest.
Went to Havarda.
Waited.
Waited.
Fished to not starve.
Waited.
Went to Crossroads to exchange some fishing (voting) money.
Saw some people arguing, then Theodra show up [drawing below].
Chatted with Tryg.
On the way back to Havarda stopped at Thiil to see Athryl.
Saw Silas there, was confused by talk of illusions of Jishrim and babies and whatever else.
Was too distrcted/inspired by appearance of her god to talk to Athryl, and instead drew Silas [below].
Got a horse. Named her Loana.
Stopped by Tambry.
Returned to Havarda.
Waited... Waited... Waited...
Went back to Crossroads to exchange fishing money, and heard rumors at the Inn of something that would happen at the cathedral.
Went there to see what would happen and pray to Silas.
Saw Silas and could barely speak for reverence.
Followed him and saw Jishrim event [at which point drawings below begin, so I won't detail it].
Thought she heard someone mention Cloud, but couldn't be sure (Arg he was there! If only she knew what Cloud looked like! Arrrrr).
Wanted to loiter afterward and admire Silas, but forced herself to return to Havarda, where she began filling out the quick sketches (read: screenshots) of the event.
Waited.
Met Cloud and learned a bit of background on magic.
Was given a book on the gods by Cloud.
Studied.
Was tested by Cloud on the gods and passed.
Was given a book on Alteran History by Cloud.
Studied.
Visited Tavern and met some other halflings and saw some people.

Introduced Cloud to cat and was forgiven for missing the test. (makes it sound like cause and effect...XD ) Took the test and passed.
Asked about learning elven and was told it was difficult.
Was told about Nicholas but didn't get a chance to meet him.
Got two more cats (and possibly lost the first one... RIP Kyloa)
