A dignified and refined Kitsune, Lian is known to dress in both Tian-Xa (Goka, specifically) and River Kingdoms style, in understated but high-quality outfits regardless, be they the smooth lines of a Goka dress or the frills and ruffles of Avistan style. Lian’s most notable feature is her 9 striking tails, which she keeps well brushed and rarely takes the effort to hide. Her human form- her original form- is a Tian woman with long, straight black hair, and an expressive face with features that suggest her upper-class upbringing. At a glance she doesn't attract the eye as a stunning beauty.. an impression she can adjust with the angle of her head, a quirk of the lip, or a look of the eye. Bio:
Lian, a human born in the trade city of Goka as Lian Xa Hua, traveled to Avistan with her wealth parents at a young age, on a journey that cost them their lives as they fell prey to the foreign land’s diseases- or so the story goes, she suspects they were poisoned. When the trade expedition wished to return after two years of exchanging goods, Lian decided to stay, distrustful of the expedition’s leaders and finding her foreign manner made her popular in these new lands, a fact she played up even as she gained more attuned to her new land, soon finding herself able to shift between guises easily, and her talents at sorcery defending her when words alone were not enough. She got involved in the attempt to reclaim the Stolen Lands early on, joining the nascent attempt at nation building, and helping assist friends and allies along the way, watching the heroes and leaders of the young nation take it through a variety of crisis, her sorcery and verbal skills serving her well. Perhaps too well- along the way she met Macer Brook, a half-elf, and they fell in love. Just as the situation with King Irovetti, ruler of Pitax, resolved, she moved with Macer to his home town of Avendale, capital of the small River Kingdom of Touvette. She was there when she received word the Stolen Lands vanished, and at first she mourned and counted herself lucky. Less-so, when the Fey began to emerge from the rift between worlds created by the event, the Fae Nyssa apparently not done with just stealing a nation away. Feeling she must act, and beginning to wonder if she could've made a difference if she hadn't left in the first place, she packed her bags and immediately began meeting with every leader she could in order to try and form a united front. Hajoth Hakados to the north in Numeria, who's barbarians laughed at the idea it'd be a threat and not more than a few easily-handled raids. Mivon, city of duelists, who felt their strength would keep them safe and instead of offering aid, pulled in to protect themselves. Gralton, still obsessed with Galt and looking south, and hard to budge from it's position. Finally Liberthane to the south, her biggest success, who was willing to lend some troops to aid Touvette as a just-in-case if nothing else. It wasn't enough, without a united front from Mivon or any aid from Gralton, her city of Avendale met a fate as unpleasant as she feared, dark fey rode in and took humans and others back to their realms as slaves or worse, and she met her end on a rider's lance, mere moments after seeing her Macer fall before her. When she woke up, she was surprised, and transformed. She has vague memories of some meeting in the Boneyard where vastly powerful beings discussed her fate and asked her a question, to which she answered 'yes'. She doesn’t know the nature of the patron who convinced Pharasma to allow her return, but she suspects Daikitsu Lady of Foxes, who likely worries about what’s befalling Avistan spreading across the rest of the word. Now a kitsune, she recognized the species of her homeland, and not just any Kitsune, but one possessing nine glorious tails and more ability in magic than her human body, and saw how her new form reflected her talents better than her old ever did. Still a powerful sorceress, she could now control her guise, her tongue felt sharper, her magic more potent. This time, the stubbornness of fools would not stand in her way.
