REIKA J DARKO

Meaning:
Nicknames: RJ, Rei (rare), Darko (common)
Aliases: None that are consistent, though she does frequently lie about her name

Age: 24
Gender: Female
Occupation: Wanderer
Skills in tanning, any sort of meat or animal product work as
she hunts all of her own food and makes most of her clothes
from animals killed in her travels. Also a skilled rope maker for
some reason, occasionally strings rope from found or stolen
materials, which she sells more often than not.

Primary Element: Beast (lioness)
Sign: Back of right shoulder
Secondary Element: Fire
Sign: Back of left shoulder



Height: 5 ft 10 in
Weight: 148 lbs

Body Type: Fit, muscular but lean, very cat-like
Long limbs though, tall and ropey, very flexible

Skin tone: Average Caucasian, slightly on the pale side but generally appears warm and light with little obvious scarring
Hair: Long, dark brown/red in coloration, it's swept off to one side when viewed from the front, but behind it is usually pulled back in a long somewhat unruly ponytail
Eyes: Narrow, very harsh and glaring with small pupils and small irises, often described as being the color of a "near frozen river", which is a sharp light blue
Other: Unlike most single sign beasts, Darko does not have the stereotypical animal ears and tail. Instead, her animal traits are limited to her lower limbs, which are covered in a fine coat of scruffy fur from her elbows/knees downwards. Her hands are replaced by hand-like paws, less dextrous than a normal hand but complete with a somewhat stubby thumb-like dewclaw which allows her to grip and do things as normal. Her feet are also almost completely paw-like, complete with sheathable claws and only four toes. The bottoms of all four paws are dotted with calloused liver brown pawpads, flatter than a normal cat's pads and less effective but they still allow Darko to move about without the need for shoes. She also finds it much easier than the average person to move around on all fours, though she is still far from the grace of a normal lion. Though she lacks any sort of animal features on her head (save a set of slightly more prominent canine teeth), she does still have the animal tail that most Beast elementals are known for.

It is suspected that she has such prominent beastial features because her mother was a two sign beast. Darko likely would've been too, if not for her father's unwanted intervention...

Clothing: Darko has very few clothes in her wardrobe, but almost all of them are made of some sort of cloth or soft leather. She frequently wears leather wraps around her limbs for protection when using her staff or blocking attacks made by others, as well as some sort of basic shirt or tunic to keep her torso decent. Her arms and legs are almost always left free as she greatly cherishes the freedom of swift movement, and hates it when fabric (or anything else for that matter) gets in her way. As such, most of her clothes are relatively form fitting with very few dangling pieces to get in the way of her otherwise graceful movements. She used to wear an armband decorated with feathers from the Poldora clan, but she has begun to distance herself from them so she stopped wearing it. She does, however, wear her mother's wind pendent around her neck- a large, palm sized circle made of polished stone, strung from a wire of some sort. It was supposedly given to her by a Wind elemental that saved her mother's life in the past, but Darko knows little of the pendent outside of that.
