Editing Kasumi (section)

===Background===

====Appearance====

She is around 5”8, with a fit physical appearance. She has bright violet eyes, that look like a cats, light coloured skin, waist length white hair that’s normally braided and a long white tail, like that of a large cat. In addition she has rather pronounced canine teeth.

She tends to wear utilitarian clothing when travelling, including a cloak which helps hide both her tail and her cats eyes from casual view.

====Personality====

Inquisitive by nature, she is always interested in listening to a tale or getting to know a person. But she always keeps careful eye, for fear her nature will attract the wrong sort of attention.

She tends to keep her personal history a secret, except in the most general terms. She easily slips into playing a role.

Sometimes she plays up her foreign nature, whether that’s language or understanding the cultures outside of Aerenal. Admittedly her knowledge in both areas is not great, but plays that up even more when it suits her.

“No-one touches the tail” is a commonly said quote of hers as curious people are always wanting to feel the tail or grab her by grabbing her tail.

====History====
From far away Aeranel, Kasumi never really felt at home, always felt the outsider even in her homeland. Her whole life she’d dreamed of find a place and a family. Her actual family whilst not antagonistic to her, were somewhat ashamed of her and her appearance and so hid her for the most part from the outside world. The exception being members of an order of monks who they trusted, and from whom Kasumi trained and learnt their ways.

At 14 she decided to leave this cloistered existence and run away, where she stowed away on a trading mission returning to Khorvaire.

Since arriving on Khorvaire she has travelled from town to town, doing work where she can as well as learning more about these strange peoples and their lands. She frequently works in jobs such as cooks and barmaids. She goes by the name Kasumi, though it is not her true name.

As keepsakes from her homeland, she has Aerenal cooking implements and a small box filled with sauces and spices from her homeland as well as well as a set of formal clothing and an Aerenal short sword.

Recalling tales of Elven slaves fleeing to Aerenal from Xen'Drik she's encouraged her new friend, Kaloza, to come with her to see the sights.
