[QUOTE="evillyn666, post: 4625774, member: 61656"] Here's my preliminary character background. I was light on details to keep things flexible if they need to be changed. I'll be playing Rashana, a human sorceress from Thune, with perhaps some genie/djinni blood in her. Her spells will focus on the themes of air, lightning, and illusion. Hopefully my picks will work out to be at least somewhat effective :) Just need to work a little on the character sheet and then I'll be all done. [sblock] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][COLOR=white]Rashana’s family hails from the abandoned Thune colony with a long and twisting history that reaches far back to the empire proper.
