Name: Rain
Age: 45
Birth Year: NRC 481
Gender: Female
Race: Half-Common Elf, Half-Human
Homeland: Glassy Woods
Physical Description: Rain has the fine delicate and graceful facial and toned physical features of her elven ancestry while combining the suntan skin and dark mane of her human side. This makes her more robust than an elf. She has a rather moodful face that can be stoic or display a menagerie of moods. Intense far-gazing eyes: one being sky blue, the other pale green. Her dark raven mane with undertones of blue, haphazardly layered down to her mid back, is usually braided to pull hair away from her eyes by means of a silver decorative clasp. The tattoo, made of natural herbs then turned into an ink (the same ink Rain carries around with her), was hand-applied onto Rain's skin, as part of the centaurian ritual for the transition out of adolescence and into adulthood in the eyes of the herd. This sealed Rain's membership into the herd, which had adopted her, as their own. The tattoo itself is of Bramd, who the centaurs consider a symbol of Marfa, whom they hold in highest reverence. It was given in hope of being a spiritual guild and protector as the half-elf continued her life's journey in a world that will hate her.

History: Rain, was the bastard child born to a former priestess to the God Myrii. Her mother, Siphi (Sigh-fee), was ex-communicated for extreme disobedience. After deliberately being warned, she broke her vow twice by, not only fraternizing with the enemy, but by siring her child, Rain, with one of them. After being ex-communicated from the order, ashamed and seeking shelter for her unborn child, the former priestess made her way to the Glassy Woods. Outcasted from her own kind, Siphi settled with the familiar friendly faces her youth, a clan of centaur. The female centaur, given the gift of prophecy, cautioned Siphi that Myrii had cursed her and now that his blessing was removed, if ever she engaged in deliberate battle (meaning Siphi is the aggressor) again, she would perish. When Siphi asked about the future of her child, the centaur would not answer.
As the years passed so Rain grew but as did her mother's despair. Siphi was unable to leave the safety of the centaurs or the Glassy Woods. Rejected by her own people and cursed by her god, when Rain was 10 years old, Siphi disappeared from her life. Rain was told Siphi went further into the Woods, and had waned away. From then on in the centaurs took full control of the rearing of the young half-elf. Siphi had never revealed the identity of Rain's father.
Rain has lived her entire life inside the Glassy Woods rapt in the centaurian and partial elven culture. While she has developed quite a knack for astrology, Rain has also equally proficient in hunting, tracking, and fighting and often accompanies her adopted race on their hunting parties. Naively, Rain has never seen another race besides the two. She does not know too much about the world outside the confines of her Woods. Rain is a ranger aspiring to become a priestess of Myrii--that is if she can ever venture forth from the Glassy Woods. The fact that mother's hatred for herself was stronger than her love for her child has, in the darkest recesses of her mind, always truly haunted Rain...
Personality: Rain's personality changes to suit the appropriate mood. While she would rather be relaxing in the midst of nature, hunting, swimming, singing, playing her panpipes, or admiring the stars; Rain, after weighing the task asked of her, will dutifully undertake journeys or tasks requested of her if she feels it is for a just reason. Her loving personality is more concerned in making others comfortable and happy than herself. She will soldier through difficult things, no matter how much pain it causes her, with a smile to make it bearable for others. Her thoughts and true feelings, she feels are irrelevant, therefore are not often shared with anyone. Rain is compassionate and has a quiet determination and believes actions speak louder than words ever could. Rain will use diplomacy then her sword as a last resort.
Alignment: Neutral Good
Quotes: "It's good to be mindful of the stars but don't forget that you must live, here, on earth."

Theme Songs
Theme (English) from Princess Mononoke/Mononoke Hime
In the moonlight I felt your heart/ Quiver like a bowstring's pulse/ In the moon's pure light, you looked at me/ Nobody knows your heart// When the sun is gone I see you/ Beautiful and haunting, but cold/ Like the blade of a knife, so sharp, so sweet/ Nobody knows you heart// All of your sorrow, pain and grief/ Locked away in the forest of the night/ Your secret heart belongs to the world/ Of the things that sigh in the dark/ Oh, the things that cry in the dark.
Possession
by Sarah McLachlan
Listen as the wind blows from across the great divide/Voices trapped in yearning, memories trapped in time/The night is my companion, and solitude my guide/Would I spend forever here and not be satisfied?//And I would be the one to hold you down/Kiss you so hard i'll take your breath away/And after, I'd wipe away the tears/Just close your eyes, dear//Through this world i've stumbled so many times/Betrayed trying to find an honest word/To find the truth enslaved/Ohh, you speak to me in riddles/And you speak to me in rhymes/My body aches to breathe your breath/Your words keep me alive//And I would be the one to hold you down/Kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away/And then, I'd wipe away the tears/Just close your eyes, dear//Into this night I wander/It's morning that I dread/Another day of knowing the path/I fear to tread into the sea of waking dreams/I follow without pride/Nothing stands between us here/And I won't be denied//And I would be the one to hold you down/Kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away/And then, I'd wipe away the tears/Just close your eyes
For Rain and Caradithil
Complicated
by Caroline Dawn Johnson
I'm so scared that the way I feel/Is written all over my face/When you walk into the room/I wanna find a hiding place/We used to laugh, we used to hug, the way that old friends do/But now, a smile and a touch of your hand/Just makes me come unglued/Such a contridiction, do I lie or tell the truth?/Is it fact or fiction/Oh the way I feel for you//So complicated, I'm so frustrated/I wanna hold you close, I wanna push you away/I wanna make you go, I wanna make you stay/Should I say it/Should I tell you how I feel/Oh, I want you to know/But then again I don't/It's so complicated//Oh..just when I think I'm under control/I think I finally got a grip/Another friend tells me that/My name is always on your lips/They say I'm more than just a friend, they say I must be blind/Well, I admit that I've seen you watch me from the corner of your eye/Oh, It's so confusing. I wish you'd just confess/But think of what I'd be losin'/If your answer isn't yes//So complicated I'm so frustrated/I wanna hold you close, I wanna push you away/I wanna make you go, I wanna make you stay/Should I say it, should I tell you how I feel/Oh I want you to know, but then again I don't/It's so complicated//Oh, I hate it /'Cuz I've waited/So long for someone like you/Oh, what do I do/Oh should I say it/Should I tell you how I feel/I want you to know, but then again I don't/It's so complicated/It's so complicated/It's so complicated
