QUOTES

"Work now," she reminded herself fiercely. "Dream later." -Setarra

"Challenge is what you make it." -Setarra

After her first meeting with Shemuel du Lac - Her eyes seemed blinded-- she could not longer see her future. She had not realised it was no longer hers.

"It is not the gods you have to fear." Trade Guild quote/mantra/warning

PLOT LINES:

Faced with political intrigues in the form of Shemuel du Lac, trapped by her nature and her stubborn determination to cling to the life she knows, she is the bearer of bad news for the Trade guild. Now they will take notice of her. Now they will use her as they use the others. It's amazing what an intelligent organization like the Trade guild can accomplish. How playing upon one's fears, one's hopes and dreams, they can manipulate a kind and gentle woman into becoming a mercenary. And she doesn't even know it.

The powers that be are beyond imagining. Knowledge and intelligence pull the strings of the peasantry, of the farmers and of the nobles. Have you ever visited a puppet show?

Maybe you should have. Maybe we all should have. You don't know the strings are there until you're already dancing against your will.

SHORT description: (intro in chat)

Setarra is 26, and average and dark in almost all ways: height, weight, and appearance. Her clothing is simple and worn, but durable in greens and browns that melt easily into the forest. Her entire manner is one of gentleness and quiet supple strength. The way she carries herself gives the impression of someone alone and wary.

LONG description:

Setarra is 26, and average in almost all ways: height, weight, and appearance. Black hair falls to her waist in straight full lengths, alert black eyes constantly look about keeping her aware of her surroundings, and tanned skin weathered slightly thru time spent outdoors shows lines at the corners of her eyes, and around her mouth. Lines of experience and occasional laughter.

Her clothing tells of one who is ready and prepared for anything. Simple and worn, but durable for many more moons, they show the colors and marks of her Trade. The scout and trail-runner Trade Guild. Greens and browns over warm black cotton, they aid her in melting into the forest. Careful patches and repairs show that her clothing is well used and tended faithfully.

The way she carries herself and her aura, speak of calmness and quick reflexes, the marks of someone alone. The marks of a wanderer. Calluses and muscle speak of an archer and one used to running trails, they speak of endurance and determination. Her voice, when speaking, is surprisingly soft, as if she uses it rarely.

Setarra's entire manner is one of gentleness and quiet strength.
