Shivania "Saffire" Kaller
Description
This little rock gnome summoner stands only 3'2", not even quite weighing 40 pounds. Shivania is nonetheless a beautiful gem to behold. She keeps her golden-blonde hair bound into two long pigtails that bob just below her backside. Sapphire-blue eyes twinkle as she surveys the land. Her tanned skin compliments her choice of a rich, midnight blue robe with a silver sash. A number of small pouches are tied to the sash, containing various sweet-smelling herbs and spell components. The summoner known as Saffire also totes a few weapons of self-defense, namely a short spear, dagger, and light crossbow complete with a quiver tied at her rear hip. Peeking from one of her robe's voluminous side pockets is a keen little rabbit -- Bahaymuta, her familiar. The white lapine watches the world Saffire transverses. Sandals bear her tiny feet along the long path ahead.
History
The Kaller Clan had a long reputation as sorcerers among the rock gnomes of the realm of Facette, located in the middle of the Aria Desert. The blood of celestial beings ran clear in the clan’s offspring. Shivania was just the most recent iteration of that bloodline, born in 856 AK. This gnome woman led a happy life. She was raised well and guided in the genteel ways of noble conjurers. Early on, she shared contact with the taller human kingdoms of Verdentia, particularly those of Smythe. But for the most part, Shivania spent her time in the cooler hills to the north among her family. There she honed her magical talents and contacted celestial being after celestial being. She even earned the affection of one, Bahaymuta, a simple celestial rabbit from the fields of Elysium. Bahaymuta gladly became the Kaller’s familiar. Shivania earned many names as the years ticked by and she matured physically and mystically, each nickname based on those entities she called and had a good story for! Eventually, she adopted the moniker “Saffire” to use among humans. The bright blaze of her bold blue eyes held no lies or secrets, only beautiful truths that only the wise and gentle could fathom. Saffire knew she would have to experience the world abroad to really hone her talents and become the Kaller’s best summoner ever. To that end, she left Facette behind and took to the road with only her spells and familiar to keep her company. Though Saffire began to seek adventure, she really sought approval from the gods.
Personality
An attractive (even for a gnome) face combined with a gentle heart, genteel words, and a modest demeanor crafts a potentially great sorceress and conjurer in Saffire. She knows that to prove to the celestial realms that she is worthy of the highest calling powers, she must overcome many challenges and puzzles. Saffire knows fiendish dangers lie ahead, and so she seeks strong allies in this world as well as the next.
Goals
Saffire will master the Sorcerer class to 20th level, then take up the Cleric class as high as 7th level. Finally, she'll pursue the prestige class of Thaumaturgist to 5th level to become a master summoner.
