About Sami DareahCharacter Sheet (All info should be included here as well)
History:
"On my back sits the expectations of the Kyonin Elves, the Goddess Desna, and my past lives. Thank the gods such things aren't material or I surely wouldn't be able to lift a finger." Born somewhere in the area of Kyonin no one knows of who Sami's true parents are. Maybe she was born a Samsaran to humans or maybe because her parents didn't have the means to take care of her she was left out in the woods to die. Yet as fate would have it she was soon found by the Elves who inhabit Kyonin's great woods. Bearing the butterfly of Desna as a birthmark on her left cheek the Elves were convinced that their findings were nothing short of divine providence. Taking the child in they brought her to back to a priestess of Desna to see what may be done. Unsure of what plans The Great Dreamer may have the priestess decreed for the local community to raise and care for the child. Surely Desna would guide her from their roots to whatever destiny was bound ahead. Without much more thought Sami was raised among the elves as a holy child destined for greatness. She spent days with people in all walks of life and the expectations for her to grow into a great priestess seemed to out pace even the growth of her youthful body. Alas though not everything could work out so smoothly. While in the day Sami grew constantly being reminded of the great hopes her community had for her future she spent the nights reliving events of her past lives. She had dreams of great warriors fighting glorious battles deep into the lines of enemies. Dreams of medics desperately trying to save a wounded comrade with bandages and ointments as they fought onwards without a priest in sight. Her dreams told her of many great lives none of which pertained to magic of any sort; divine or arcane. Thrown in a conflicting spiral of emotion the young Samsaran dedicated herself to mastery of the starknife trying to find some meeting point to the expectations of all those around her while also staying true to the persons she had been. Yet even this seemed to be a dead end for the child. While her memories of her past selves were vivid they had all possessed a body capable of much greater strength and precision then the one she currently had. Even with hard work and dedication the limitations of her current form very quickly became abundantly clear. Not in particularly strong or fast she wasn't able to achieve the greatness in combat that she knew in her soul she was capable of. Falling into a deep depression Sami was saved by but the wise words of an elder elf who reached out to her. "Sami I know you carry a great burden. You have great things expected of you and similarly you expect great things of yourself. But I do wish to remind you that in spite of your memories of your past self, in spite of whatever destiny Desna may have bestowed upon you, and in spite of whatever burden we as a community have put on your shoulders you are still your own person. Those memories you bear are of others who made choices of their own. Don't let them shape you in a way you do not wish. Similarly do not allow us to shape you in such a way either." The elder's words struck a deep cord inside of the soul of the young girl. So much so that she found her inspiration to venture out into the world in an effort to find who she really was. Taking up her things Sami bid her community farewell vowing to one day return the kindness that they had shown her. Leaving on a journey with a beginning, but not an end she planned to travel the world for as long as she was able. It was but a short time after beginning her adventures that she came into contact with the Pathfinder Society and decided to make an effort to join them. Maybe working with them would lead Sami to finding her true self.
Description:
Lightblue skin, green hair, and piercing white eyes Sami is very clearly a Samsaran to any who can recognize the race. On her left cheek is a dark blue bithmark that bears a striking resemblance to Desna's holy symbol and also makes it rather difficult to disguise her identity. Her figure is rather slim and her build makes it very difficult to believe she is one who wades into the front lines of combat. While she has spent a great deal of time training her muscle strength it's extremely hard to identify what few muscles she does have underneath her clothing. On the note of clothing Sami tends to where whatever is best suited to her travel at the time. That is with one exception. She always makes sure whatever set of clothing she has always contains a dress rather then pants. Possibly as her own small way of trying to separate her current self from her past lives she has become rather adamant about this as she's grown older.
Personality:
Sami's personality is an odd mix between freedom loving traveler and brutal fighter. For those who traveler with her they will quickly come to realize just how relaxed she can often be. Taking time to enjoy her surroundings and almost always friendly to passerby along the road she carries an air of freedom and adventure. That is as long as combat isn't close. In combat her demeanor seems to take a sudden shift from peaceful fun loving traveler to brutal killer. Channeling the memories of her past lives, Sami losses herself in the emotions of her long lost selves. Often times she temporarily overcomes the limitations of her weak body only find herself spent and exhausted after the combat has ended. Outside of these two dispositions though Sami holds a thirds type of personality she keeps closely to herself. When alone she often times still finds herself somewhat distraught and torn. Still unable to decide who she really is or if she's just some conglomeration of past lives she once lived. When approached in such a state she will often times bring back out her smile as a front, but those close to her can't help but notice the internal strife she carries with her.
Character Flaws:
Sami when not in combat can often times be very lackadaisical when it comes to things that probably deserve slightly more attention. While not stupid by any means of the imagination she will often times refuse to acknowledge clear signs of mistrustful people. For example she rarely has qualms with accepting traveling companions without a second thought in spite of their clear unscrupulous nature. Sami often times loses herself in combat reliving memories of her past lives. While this can be a benefit in many respects she often times charges headfirst into situations that she probably shouldn't be. Luckily as of yet this hasn't lost her life though it has put her into more then one sticky situation.
