Starchasing Kyou
Starchasing Kyou
Caste: Full Moon
Motivation: Build a great airship fleet to protect Creation.
Anima Banner: A great white Osprey with blue-glinted feathers.
Tell: Silver hair that is filled with downy feathers, and can part and flap to function as wings.
Description: A shapely young woman with slightly dark skin, blue eyes and silver white hair, wearing a pale blue kimono and a dark blue scarf. Her back-length hair is oddly expressive
Personality: Boisterous, eager and headstrong, there is very little that keeps Kyou from her lofty goals. She is somewhat perturbed by her own disturbing dreams and a lack of a past, but forges on through sheer grit and her own will. Despite having a big mouth, is actually quite perceptive and intelligent.
Background: The Silver Pact found a recently Exalted Kyou buried in the corpses of several Lintha slavers, while barely hanging on to life. She subsequently joined the Silver Pact and after becoming a figure of relative skill and respect, went out on her own into the world. She appears to have some connection to Autocthonia, as she was discovered with a pair of rare and ornate moonsilver beam whips that could not have been produced in Creation.
