<PERSONALITY>
Likes:
~
~ She enjoys gaining new knowledge and experience, whether it be in matters of strategy, honing her skills with the blade or expanding her knowledge and abilities with animancy.
~ She appreciates honor, loyalty and integrity, and respects those who show concern for the lives of others.
Dislikes:
~
~
~ Positioning herself as a protector of the people first, Kitrana abhors tyranny and the needlessly cruel.
Strengths:
~
~ Kitrana is firmly loyal, and to break an oath or betray an ally is something that would not come easily to her. If it was truly necessary, though...
Weaknesses:
~
~ She can at times come off as very proud, not taking well to humiliation and belittlement.
Fears:
~
~ She holds herself to a very high standard, and as such she fears even the smallest failure.
Values:
~ Knowledge. The keys to guarding the realm lie in knowing how to face any threat.
~
~ Before anything else, she values the good of the people. She will sacrifice anything including her own life to serve the needs of the many. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. Always.
Education: She was taught to think strategically and to be observant. She does not have a formal education in lore, but has obtained a large quantity of knowledge during her time on Altera, including more secretive knowledge such as the nature of animancy.
Languages:
~ Common (native tongue)
~ Elven (fluent)
~ Aurion (fluent - on the legacy character list here)
~ Rede (fluent)
General Attitude:
Religious Inclination: Kitrana does not wholly devote herself to the gods anymore. She has come to accept the idea that it is only through the efforts of mortals that the realm is protected now, and as such she does not see the gods as worthy of her full devotion when she can do more to help the Alterans with her current power. However, she still holds varying opinions of the gods.
~ Valiant: Respected and honored.
~ The Grey Lady:
~ Ignis:
~ Jax:
~ Visage: Hatred
~ Shalherana: Worthy of respect as the bringer of life, but Kitrana regards her followers as naive in some regards.
~ Theodra: Worthy of respect as natural order. Kitrana has never been drawn to Theodra or her doctrine, but holds respect for what she represents and those who devote themselves to her.
~ Korog: Indifferent. Kitrana has encountered fewer followers of Korog than perhaps any other deity. She likes the aspects of permanence and perfection which he represents, but she cannot in good conscience show respect to one who represents neutrality in a world such as this. She regards this as akin to being apathetic and self-centered.
~ Sallana: Indifferent. There are aspects of Sallana which Kitrana likes, but she finds the general worldview held by her followers to be far too naive.
~ Jishrim: Hatred. Jishrim stands for everything which Kitrana opposes, his followers unworthy of trust and, she considers, more unpredictable than those of Visage. Where Visage's followers can be counted on to act in their own interests, the worshipers of Jishrim sometimes show no such inclination to self-preservation. In this way, Kitrana considers Jishrim and his followers to be the most dangerous of divine enemies.
~ Skraag: Vehement hatred. After everything Skraag has done to interfere in the world, tearing away Kitrana's homeland from her and thousands of Alterans, she feels nothing but violent hatred for him and any who would be foolish enough to follow him.
General Intelligence: Observant, strategy-minded
General Sociability: Not very approachable or good at small talk
Alignment: Neutral Good
Short Term Goals:
~ Develop Mornholm
~ Take time to herself
Long Term Goals:
~ Start construction of Blackrush Rising

<RELATIONSHIPS>
Relevant Family Members:
~ Leofaren Venna-Dawnriver, her husband- Kitrana loves Leo more than anything, a sentiment which she knows he returns. She feels they have been apart from each other far too much, and he serves as her emotional anchor. She fears losing him more than anything else. She wants to make an effort to be with him more and return to spending time with him like they used to in Arget what feels like so long ago. (Shankster )
~ Laisa Dawnriver, adopted daughter- Kitrana has moved on from her previous guilt, and she is proud of her adopted daughter. She regrets remaining somewhat distant, and once things calm down more she hopes to visit her more. (Samiwashere )
Romantic Interests:
Taken
Trusted Friends:
~ Raalvara Varyn- Her liege, but she is more akin to a sister. Kitrana sees her as an equal, although she is not in title. Kitrana holds a strange uncertainty towards her as of late. She has felt a growing, silent rift in their relationship that she cannot explain. Beyond that, she also feels that with time, their destinies are destined to lead apart from each other. For the time being, however, she chooses to stay by Raal's side as long as it suits her. She just hopes Raal knows that she can trust Kitrana. (Raal )
~ Elizabeth Kane- Kitrana has come to greatly enjoy talking with Elizabeth, finding her refreshing to converse with and looking forward to every one of their meetings. She only wishes Elizabeth did not see her as such a blind follower in regards to Raalvara still. Kitrana has thought heavily on her words, more than she openly admits. (NIAH )
~ Ayda- A sister to Kitrana nearly as close as Raalvara, the two have largely moved on from a rocky past, due in no small part to Kitrana's vastly changed temperament. Kitrana would trust Ayda with her life without hesitation. (Ayda )
~ Cassian- This man was among the first people Kit met when she made it to Storm's Landing. Kitrana does not entirely approve of Cassian's underhanded and manipulative nature even now, and there has been times where his actions have earned her scorn and disdain. But with time, Kitrana has come to regard him as among her extended family, especially as he treats Leofaren as a brother. She even admits privately that at times she would find his skills useful to her, and would ask for his help in this regard if she ever deems it necessary. (Baron2537 )
Friendly With:
~ Fronslin- An elf that Kitrana has been acquainted with for a very long time. She has never gotten to the level of fully trusting him, but she enjoys his company well enough and believes his heart is in the right place. When turned in the right direction, he is a powerful and capable ally. (Fronslin )
~ Jorvun- A shepherd who has been around Blackrush for a long time, and now recently has taken up the blade and is a protege under Raalvara. Kitrana sees Jorvun is a good man and hopes he continues to grow in his ability and intelligence. (GhostKairo123 )
~ Rowley- One of Raalvara's proteges. The boy can be foolish but is eager to prove himself to Valiant, and Kitrana hopes he succeeds. (Philipe )
~ Wolfgang von Harrister- Possibly the most respectable man to come out of the Kane court, Kitrana respects Wolfgang and his judgment, and sees him as a soul who has a genuine desire to do what is right. (Rygan )
~ Jaden Seeker- Kitrana has not directly interacted with Jaden much, but she continues to see him as powerful, and someone who does his best to use that power in a way that is beneficial to the world. She hopes that at some point they have more opportunity to talk. (CloakedReaper )
~ Raeyna- A friendly woman with a restless soul. Kitrana enjoys Raeyna's company and believes she is quite intelligent, as well as useful as a medic. She has had a tendency to bring conflict with her, however, and her recent behavior during the interrogation of Heseya displeased Kitrana. (DizPanda )
~ Kyri- Kitrana's occasional apprentice in swordsmanship. She feels guilt for having been distant from him for so long and not being there for him in the midst of the horrible things he has been through. She wishes to support him and wants him to be the best that he can be, but at the same time, she frustratingly sees that he has not lost his impulsive and confrontational attitude. (Yuki_The_Witch. )
~ Kopii- They do not speak often, but Kitrana has with time learned to move on from the past and has come to appreciate Kopii's company more. She enjoys conversing with him and views him as a valuable ally and a friend, even if she remains wary of his impulsiveness. (Omikuji )
Loose Acquaintances:
~ Sofia- Rowley's apprentice. Kitrana has yet to speak with her much, but she seems committed and serious. Time will tell where her path leads. (DizPanda )
~ Wilhelm Schmidt- Sometimes friendly, and sometimes overly proud and full of himself. Nonetheless, he is a competent blade to have around Blackrush and has proven himself useful. (Omen13 )
Complicated:
~ James Varyn- Kitrana has yet to speak to the new James. She does not know what to think of his state, and wonders if he can even still be considered the same person as he is. (TheDeester )
~ Sigmund von Hallon- Since the duel, they have not interacted. Kitrana does not know what Sigmund thinks of her, and she likewise no longer knows what to think of him. Every time she interacts with him seems to be a different experience. (Scardrac )
~ Uriel- Raalvara's former student, and Valiant's blessed. His recent actions have placed him in a bad light in Kitrana's mind. After what they've fought through together, she wants to still respect him, but the way he has behaved since the Kilrox raiders have begun their attacks has done nothing but earn her scorn. (BoredBrit )
Disfavored Individuals:
~ Asher Varyn- A foolish, arrogant boy who is too eager to prove himself to others, at the sacrifice of his moral high ground. Kitrana regards both him and James as foolish for going into that duel, and she has no desire or intent to speak with him again beyond absolute necessity. (blargtheawesome )
~ Podric- Hearing about his recent trek to Blackrush has done nothing for her previous expectations that he may change. She had begun to see him as more temperate and mild, but with his words towards Raal and his move to take valuable defenders away from the village her disdain for the Ignis-blessed is rapidly growing once again. But she will hear his side of things sooner or later, she expects. (Luam )
~ Asero- Kitrana has spoken to Asero and seen him enough to hold some level of disdain for him. More than anything, she simply regards him to be arrogant, self-centered and something of an oaf. She does not think that he should be with Laisa, but she has decided to hold her tongue and let them be, at least unless Asero does something truly idiotic which hurts Laisa. For now, she is simply glad that he makes Laisa happy. (Electric )
