Name: Dr. Ava Aemenor, The Citrine Sage
Alignment: Neutral Good
Race: Sylph (From Osirion)
Class: Weapon Master 1 / Archaeologist 8
Description: Ava is brown haired, light skinned girl with grey eyes. The only hint to her elemental heritage is the blue lines swirling faintly just beneath her skin. As for her personality she is a lighthearted explorer to the core. Incredibly book smart she is not the wisest in the world and gets overly excited at just about anything. This jovial excitement frequently gets her into all sorts of trouble. Yet somehow her Archaeologist's Luck always manages to see her through it.

Ava was born to a well-to-do merchant family in Sothis as the youngest of 5 siblings. Her entire childhood, she wanted for nothing and all academic resources were made readily available. Unlike the rest of her brothers and sisters who were interested on short term pursuits or following in the family business, Ava focused solely on her studies. This ultimately led to her being invited to study at the premier college in Sothis an opportunity that she jumped at without a second thought.

Ultimately Ava would stay at the college for nearly 8 years as a student and then another 6 as a professor’s aid. By this time the girl, now in her early 30’s and it was becoming abundantly clear that something was different about her. Everyone had just assumed her lighter skin color was simply from being inside more than most. However, now that she still looked like a young teenager still at this age she went looking for answers.

It didn’t take long for a member of academia to figure out that she was indeed a member of the Sylph race, and not fully human. The discovery of this brought upon large scale jealously and anger from her family members when they realized she would out live them all by hundreds of years. The thin bonds that had loosely held Ava to her family were finally broken, and in her despair, she returned to the only thing she had succeeded in. The pursuit of knowledge.

This time around when Ava approached the school they welcomed her back with open arms not only as a professor and doctoral candidate, but as an active member of the community. The headmasters knew that unlike most academic’s Ava was young at least in body, physically fit, and decent with a weapon. So, they offered her the opportunity and funding to get some real archaeological experience.

The next 20 years were pure joy for the woman who split her time between the class rooms and delving ruins. However, even with all this she wanted more, and that was when she discovered the Pathfinder Society faction: The Scarab Sages. A group dedicated entirely to the study, documentation, and recovery of ancient artifacts. So, eager with anticipation she reached out the group and due to her already impressive resume, she was welcome into the group with open arms. From here Ava not only got a chance to be at the cutting edge of the field, but she would go on to participate in countless amazing adventures as well.
