Mission Items: Sap -1 (1d6-1), Potion of Cure Light Wounds
Description:
Jido is a russet-skinned Varisian, and sports the colorful clothing and tribal tattoos common to her people. Her mannerisms may seem odd to those who do not know her, as she often whispers in conversations to beings who are not present in the material plane. She is however always ready to listen to her companions' concerns, guide them in the starlight of Desna, or prepare them for the trials to come with a professional harrow reading.

Background:
Jidovaika Vasila has always been able to commune with spirits. From a young age, she could sense their presense, feel when they were nearby. Only once she was older did Jido realize that she was unique, and that most people went about their lives unaware of the forces lurking just beyond their ken.
She was fortunate however to grow up in Pendaka where visions and encounters with the otherwordly are not considered at all unusua, particularly with the Ashwood nearbyl. In fact, divination was actively encouraged among the women. As a young teen, Jido became known for mysic connection to the spirit world. She was sent to learn divination under the wing of the fortune-teller Mirelica Pavlenco. While she did become skilled at telling fortunes on her own, Jido recognized that it was not a medium through which she could reach the spirits she sensed around her.
Things changed when the wandering priest of Desna, Aedi Uritinus, visited her village. Aedi sensed the girl's talent, and taught her a few spells each time he came through Pendaka. Eventually, she learned the means to call forth the spirits she sensed around her, and to call on the blessings of Desna to empower them to defend her.
After some time, Aedi was never seen in Pendaka again. On his previous visit, he had mentioned being on an assignment for the Pathfinder Society. Jodi announced to her village that she would set out to find him, and received fresh tattoos of her people that would help bind the spirit world to her will. She knew the Society was headquartered in Absalom, and set out to find her old teacher, and to master the spirits who still called to her.
