*Eberron Campaign Setting (p.122) - Glamerweave is a fine,
light fabric that has delicate illusions woven into its
threads. The color of glamerweave seems to shift subtly
and is hard to describe, but this property makes for a
striking and strangely beautiful appearance. A character
wearing glamerweave clothing gains a +1 Circumstance bonus
on Diplomacy checks. Glamerweave clothing costs 100gp more
than a normal outfit of the same sort, and weighs 1lb less.
**Mwk. Artisan's Tools - Calligraphy kit containing inks of
several pigments, pens of multiple shapes and utility, rolls
of parchment paper of various sizes, sharpened cutting
implements and portable tray to hold writing material.

Appearance:[SBLOCK] Malinda is a curly-haired blonde elf with sky blue eyes that have a tendency to glitter when she is passionate about something. Her complexion is pale, and she protects it against the sun with a light wrap that covers her shoulders and extends down to mid-calf. A white scarf, wrapped loosely under her chin typically hides her tapered ears that tend to jut out from under her shoulder-length golden tresses.
Under her wrap she wears tight jerkin, dyed a soft gray. Beneath that she wears a loose cream dress, with just enough sleeve to cover her shoulders. It is slit on both sides to help keep her cool and to allow for freedom of movement. The dress seems plain, but has a tendency to capture the light and display intriguing hidden color that fascinates the eye. She wears open sandals, ties up with criss-crossing leather string up to above her heels.
At her waist she bears a quiver of arrows, as well as her flute in a slim black leather sheathe. At her opposite side is a longsword, of common make. Slung over her back is a longbow, of exquisite craftsmanship and inscribed by her own hand with delicate elven script from tip to tip.
She carries most of her other possessions in a bulging knapsack, that she has a tendency to struggle with when forced to carry it herself.[/SBLOCK]
Personality:[SBLOCK] Malinda is playful and friendly, and often comes across as flirty at first acquaintance. She is tactile, both with people and her craft, and is easily distracted by indulgences of the senses. Malinda is equally as captivated by history, literary works, and writings of many sources, and can easily get lost in them - and may need to be pried loose from them with stern words. She has a serious side, which often comes through in her focus with music or calligraphy, though she still acts quite aware of an audience, most of the time.
Though sweet, Malinda has been in business for almost half of her life, even before becoming an adult and is quite skilled at negotiation and barter. Though she strives for a good bargain, she doesn't take what she considers an unfair advantage nor make deals that she feels would be overtly harmful to another. She makes a real attempt to have good 'customer relations' in this respect.
Malinda does not do well alone. Immediately after her father's disappearance, many of her nights were spent in tears or dealing with barely held back dark fears. She's generally much more calm if she can discuss her fears or feelings with someone, and or other individuals she is on good terms with are nearby.[/SBLOCK]
Background:[SBLOCK]
Early History: Malinda's father was born and raised in Khedris and became a scribe of some skill, establishing a store there for his services. He was a quiet sort, who kept to himself, until he met Malinda's mothr. A golden haired beauty, she was a recent immigrant to Khedris and required his services for her paperwork. On the sight of her he was smitten. She worked as a singer and her unique styling made her very popular at first in inns and in theatres, but the ardent attention of Malinda's father won her heart. They settled together, married and in the fullness of time bore Malinda.
Malinda has the inquisitive mind of her father, but also the expressive and artistic personality of her mother. She tore into studies, athletics and the arts with an un-dampening enthusiasm. Language and the written word soon became her favorite of these activities. She dug into historical texts, always searching for how words, script and runes were formed. When she needed to read a tome that was in an unknown language the solution was simple - learn the language.
Her studies of text and script naturally transitioned into music, and written sheets of music soon captivated her attention. She besieged her parents with her desires, and they soon gave in and hired a tutor to help her learn musical instruments. Malinda became adept at them, particularly wind instruments and the flute.
As she became a juvenile elf her tastes for writing matured and went from the pragmatic to the artistic and she engaged in the study of calligraphy, enjoying the way scripted language could be interpreted and made into beauty that could be seen by all. Malinda's hobby soon turned into a profitable side-business for her father and her delicate writings soon adorned many stores and stalls, advertising wares and services. Malinda's kind and engaging demeanor further swelled demand for both father and daughter's services.
Shortly after becoming an adult, Malinda's mother and father separated, amicably. Her father was becoming all too focused in his work, while her mother desired more sights, sounds and locations to perform. It was agreed Malinda would stay with her father, though in her heart the desire to see more of the world took seed.
Fifteen years later, Malinda's father disappeared, with all his possessions and wealth. The matter of his disappearance has gone a mystery, though Malinda spent a considerable amount of what resources remained to her to find the answer to his disappearance. A year later, she was forced to give up this search, her father's store and most of her own savings dried up.
Recent History:
After this, she returned to her music and to her calligraphy, and made a fair living once again, though it was harder to prosper without her father. She soon found it necessary to branch out and search for clients and she soon came under the employ of the Merchant's Guild. This short span of employment thrilled Malinda, as there unique needs often demanded all of her resources and talents. She finally resolved to use her connections with the Merchant's Guild to join with Halmaro the Red's caravan, to see Mashanda, the kingdom beyond the desert.
