A natural one. Not sure what the consequences are; lose a surge maybe?[/sblock]Rain had saluted her opponent with her sword at the beginning of the dance of blades. She was centred and ready for an unpredictable onslaught, but Sabynha's springoard attack from the tree had in fact connected, passing through Rain's magical shield; there was a brief flicker of flame in the wound, which served to cauterised it, but Rain suppressed the instinctive urge to bring about her retributive infernal wrath on Sabynha.She bows to her opponent and re-sheathes her blade, "So do you, Sabynha. You did strike true at least once, though some of my kata's work even better defending others. Your twirling attacks were not entirely unlike those of my former swordmaster's, though he tended to use more teleportation."Rain grimaces slightly; the memories of some brutal training sessions were with her still.Rain turns to the unicorns, "I am gratified that you find me wondrous. The respect is indeed mutual. However, there are many in our world that would not find me so pleasing. I am of the Tiefling race, a descendent from a dynasty that once courted the power of diabolic beings to rule over others in tyranny and our blood was forever changed as a result."She takes a deep breath and carried on in a lower voice, "My path is different. Tyranny and suppression are to be opposed and as such am I bound to be a foe of Soryth. These whom I travel with, I value as friends. I am called Rain, though truthfully in my own tongue that would be rendered as Mu'a."She bows deeply to the unicorns and lowers her eyes.</blockquote>
