APPEARANCE
At a glance Iksha appears to be a dark-skinned young woman with light blonde hair and a similarly-colored fur coat on her back. A closer look reveals that both the ‘hair’ and ‘fur’ are actually made up of thin, bony quills. Longer quills run down her arms as well, albeit more sparsely. Her eyes are a warm amber. When she smiles, which is often, she shows off two small fangs descending from her upper teeth.

The quills necessitate a certain style of clothing and Iksha is almost never seen in anything other than a high-necked, backless, sleeveless dress. She has a large variety of them in a number of bright colors, favoring reds, yellows, and blues. Her armor has been similarly modified. (The quills are sufficient defense for her back and arms.) When the temperature drops she wraps herself in an old coat but complains it’s uncomfortable to have the fabric pressed against her quills.
