Guchiko is a slight and elegant young woman with large green eyes and a long fall of dark hair. She tends to wear flowing robes bound with obis, in colors of blue and green. Her hair is usually fixed in a manner as to invoke flowing or falling water. She wears a woven basket on her back, and carries a series of metal plates engraved and painted with figures at her waist.
Personality: Guchiko is very much like the river of her home, calm and unruffled, though in times of anger her emotions run high and can be destructive. She has a great reverence for the natural world, and does not hesitate to correct someone who is abusing the land. She prefers gentle persuasion to violence, but will spring into action when words fail her, with the powerful command of nature at her fingertips.
Background: Guchiko was born from the River Xiyig, and spent her formative years traveling along its length. From within its banks she was able to view all kinds of humanity, from the poorest peasant to the haughtiest noble. She marveled to see all the different ways they used the earth’s resources, from forming magnificent weapons, armor, and clothing, to bringing forth food in abundance.
She began to see the different ways she could manipulate the earth’s forces, concentrating on the powers of water that had sheltered her all her life. Power came easily to the intelligent spirit woman, and she wrote them down on the back of shells. She began to leave the river, traveling farther away to see other people up close. Slowly she learned of the ways of humanity, learning about metal, craft, and power. She took it within her and made it a part of her magic, placing the words of her magic onto plates of crafted metal to reflect her new learning.
Excited at these new learnings, she began to weave magic in strange and sophisticated ways, allowing it to flow through her even without the sacred gestures or words. Her skills and powers in hand, she began to set out to explore her magic, as well as the world beyond the river…
A few months ago she arrived in the town of Zuko, a town that held a guild she had never seen before. Bearing the symbols of the elements on the door, she felt drawn to it immediately. This was a guild of the wu-jen, a place where people devoted to the Art and Craft could congregate, share discoveries and spells, swap anecdotes and information, and find employment. Guchiko was immediatly enchanted, for she had never had anyone to discuss her Art with. Willingly she paid their fees simply for their company, and has already been able to add several new spells to her repetoire.
