Karina Orlovsky has light brown hair, brown eyes, and the tanned complexion common to her Taldan ancestry. Her features, while pretty, are rather unremarkable. She wears plain, if well made, traveling clothes, and a leather cuirass. She bears only a plain belt knife for weapons. A small wooden holy symbol of Shelyn dangles from a loose leather cord around her neck, and a plain lute hangs from a strap around her torso.
Personality:
Outwardly, Karina is outgoing, friendly, and personable. She has long practice telling people what they want to hear, true or not. Inwardly, she is paranoid of those around her, a feeling brought about by her long training in subterfuge. As a result, Karina has learned to watch others for clues as to their motives and intentions. She is careful in all things, but ready to put it on the line when required.
Background:
Karina Orlovsky is the seventh daughter of Boris Orlovsky, fourth son of the head of House Orlovsky, and Ionnia Tavala, Boris's third wife, and a Taldan bard trained in Oppara at the Kitharodian Academy. Karina grew up mostly ignored by her father, but not by her mother. Ionnia taught her daughter many of her own skills, such as speechcraft, stringed instruments, reading people, figuring out puzzles and cyphers, as well as other other skills that are taught to the bards of the Kith. As a teenager, Karina was sent by Ionnia to Oppara to learn from her mother's old master, Tenebrio Palazzo. Karina acquitted her self well enough to graduate from the Kith, though she failed her test to join the Lion Blades. Upon Karina's return to Brevoy Ionnia greeted her daughter with open arms, though she was a bit disappointed with Karina's failure to become a Lion Blade. When Karina heard about the expeditions to the Stolen Lands, she resolved to go and prove to her mother that she had the mettle to be greater than a mere Lion Blade.
Kingdom Role:
Ideally I'd be the Spymaster, but any of the intelligence based roles would work fine. With 14 Charisma I could be ruler if there's no one better to fill that role.
