About Kasana Windfoot

Appearance:

Kasana is a human woman of above average height. She has a dark complexion with fierce dark brown eyes and medium wavy black hair that reaches to her shoulders. Her kind face hides her incredible fierceness and determination that appears whenever she is concentrating or in the heat of battle. Lithe and incredibly light on her feet, she's able to both move quickly or stealthily when needed. She wears a sturdy leather vest and boots on top of a golden shirt customary of her clan and a dark traveler’s cloth the muted colors of the woods. She carries her expertly carved bow and quiver (her signature weapon) over her right shoulder and her rapier on her left hip. Her shield and pack (filled with various adventuring gear and tools is worn across her back as a combined backpack of sorts. The only finery of note on her person is a unique piece of jewelry adorned to her left wrist, crafted into the shaped of interconnected falling leaves.

Personality:

Kasana is a human woman who is proud & confident of her abilities and unapologetic about using them whenever necessary. Having grown accustomed to following orders during her time as a scout, she is fine with letting others take a more prominent leadership role, though she is not afraid to speak her mind or take control when a situation demands it. She also does not take kindly to insults to her comrades or her abilities and can tend to hold grudges against those who may have wronged her or those she trusts.

History:

Kasana has been fighting to prove herself her entire life. Born and raised in Varisia, she was made an orphan at a young age left to fend for herself in the Mierani Forest. Eventually found by an Elf patrol in the area, she was brought to the village of Crying Leaf deep within the forest and allowed a place to stay. As the only human in the entire settlement though, she was oftentimes prejudiced against as "The Human" or "The Outsider" and never truly accepted into their ranks. Rather than hiding or wilting from the constant rejection that was her childhood, Kasana used it as fuel to prove that she was at least equal - if not better - than her elven brethren. Even among the elves considered a natural prodigy with the bow, her talent forced the Elves to train Kasana in their ways and even teach her some of ancient arcane spellcraft which she absorbed greedily. By the time she reached young adulthood, Kasana, through her sheer determination, was able to break through the prejudices that surrounded her and was finally considered a true member of the village as well as a warrior equal to any other elf in the village; an honor never before bequeathed to a non-elf and particularly notable as her training was completed in record time.

Shortly afterwards, Kasana was assigned to a scouting party to venture forth from their forest home in Varisia to the wilds of Nirmathas & Molthune to scout reports of unusual activity within the region at the bequest of the Kyonin elves. Unfortunately that is when disaster struck. Soon after they crossed the border, the party was attacked by the Ironfang Legion. Seemingly coming out of nowhere, the the group was quickly overrun and killed with Kasana the only member able to escape with her life. Upset at watching her newly accepting comrades fall and unwilling to accept their loss without retribution, Kasana decided to stay in Nirmathas and find a way to defeat the Ironfang Legion before they destroyed the lives of so many others.
