Character Info

Full name: Meissa Turan­­

Age: 26

Role: So'jhin

Physical appearance: She is tall and rather thin, with darker tanned skin and dark golden-blonde hair and green eyes. Her facial features are sharp, and her body toned with light muscle.

Physical weakness: Meissa has always been physical and so does not have what I could call any 'weakness'. She cannot be weak for her duty.

Physical strength: Meissa is always physically training herself, especially in balance and strength training, and speed.

Personality: Meissa is not easily offended, unless someone insults her high lady or others of House Elioth. She spends a lot of time by herself, training, or training with others. Mostly, however, she enjoys the quietness of the countryside and the great distances to be explored.

Personality weakness: She remains fairly clear-headed in a fight, but doesn't like to lose, either. If she does lose a physical contest or a training match, she will always try to make it up by calling for a rematch. Sometimes, however, if one beats her enough, shaming her enough, that person may just pay for it with their life.

Personality strength: Few people can get her riled up when she is doing her duty, and in situations that call for a physical response, she is quick on her feet. She also takes great pride in being so'jhin to Lady Elioth, and this helps her in her duty to serve.

Special: Meissa is very physical and is quick and skilled in fighting with her body alone, though she is also adept at using knives.

History: Meissa works under the High Lady Retamin Elioth. She was an only child, born to a carpenter father and dress-making mother. She grew up in Kirendad, and partially outside it; as a very adventurous child, she did not like staying in one place for long. She was also very athletic, always challenging her body by climbing trees, hiking the summits of the mountains, or swimming long distances. By the time she was fifteen she was recruited to become a soldier. This idea she loved, until she realized how restricting it actually was. It was in Kirendad that she met Cura, and both, working under the High Lady Retamin Elioth, agreed to help the High Lady by killing her younger sister. For Meissa, she was promised to become so'jhin, for by the time this plot was hatched she was already a trusted guard for some years. Her so'jhin training began when she was twenty. It was a difficult road for her on the learning aspect—especially the subtle hand language—but her physical skills only grew stronger. Becoming so'jhin was a high honor for her and her family, and so she gladly accepted it without question. However, she does again miss the freedom she had growing up.
