Eden Rishima
Description
Eden Rishima prefers a disguise when among the common races of the land. Thus, she will be found most often as an exotic, tan-skinned human beauty. Eden exudes sex appeal while wearing a glittering emerald-green, sleeveless gown that is slit up both sides to reveal long legs and cling to full curves. Slippers of matching color are worn on her delicate feet. Anklets, bangles, armlets, earrings, and similar jewelry ring sweetly with her every step. Eden is also lightly scented of jasmine. A coy expression dominates her full, lush lips. Brown eyes sparkle with inviting mystery. Indeed, Eden seems to be ripe and picturesque femininity. She glides like a smooth dancer, one accustomed to performing for royal courts.
However, Eden’s true appearance is far more diabolic. The rakshasa is slightly taller and heavier – 5’8” and about 140 pounds. Instead of flawless skin, Eden is sheathed in soft fur – orange with black stripes, like a tiger. And her head is quite feline: like that of a bipedal tigress indeed. While slender, fluid grace and supple strength guided her sure stride. Her paw-like hands, while perfectly dexterous, are turned backwards in proportion to her arms, oddly enough. But that is rarely noticed in the rich purple robes Eden wears. Those golden eyes are crafty, shrewd, and even malicious. A fearsome feline air surrounds this devil-woman, and sharp white teeth bare a hunger to take all she sees.
History
Far away in the exotic land of Wutao, Eden Rishima was born 172 years ago ago in the wicked city of Calli, home to many rakshasa. Her mother believed it was her kind’s duty to manipulate the systems of civilization from within. Eden was raised with that in mind, and she took it to heart. She studied all forms of tricks and methods of subversion. The best tricks were neither too subtle nor too blatant, Eden understood. And so when she began to study more arcane sources of magic rather than merely depending on inner sorceries, Eden abandoned the schools of illusion and evocation in favor of conjuration. From her mother’s looted spell books, Eden taught herself as much about wizardry as possible. As she matured, she went forth from Calli to experiment and practice. Eden decided it was best to master her specialty of arcane subversion as far from home as possible. Besides, rumor held that the fools of Estonen were easy marks for creatures as talented as rakshasa.
Personality
Eden is full of herself, but nonetheless she is quite erudite and clever. She may look down on all creatures as inferior, but she understands her own limits. Eden is always hungry for more knowledge and power, both magical and temporal.
Goals
Eden will pursue the wizard class to the 15th-level, then pick up the prestige class of archmage, mastering it (to the 5th-level) before picking wizard levels back up to become an epic conjurer (20th-level+).
