Rinari Inys

Appearance
Glassy black twisted horns that shine like obsidian protrude from under a flowing mane of ombre hair, starting out ghostly white at the roots, and gradually transitioning to pitch black at the tips. Solid silver eyes gleam in a field of crimson skin that fades to alabaster. An entrancing pattern of geometric tattoos on Rinari's forhead commemorate the number of bounties she has successfuly captured.

Background
A Tiefling of unknown origins who has spent considerable time learning the secrets of magic. Still at the start of her journey of learning, Rinari already has shown an aptitude for spell-casting.

Orphaned as a child she was taken in by a clan of Vistani who introduced her to the ways of magic, while also teaching her skills of deception, swordsmanship, and ruthless cunning. Skills she would take with her when she ventured out into her adult life as a bounty hunter. She travels the lands of Ningonde searching for her family's killers.

Rinari shares details of her life only to those who have proved they are trustworthy, a task not for the impatient. A master of her emotions, Rinari always exudes an air of calm, and is nearly impossible to read.

There are Tieflings in Ningonde, and while they're generally tolerated and accepted, they're not usually viewed in the friendliest light. To avoid persecution in the past, the Tieflings quietly made their way to the continent of Estra, setting up a major city there, Heawold, as well as smaller settlements further up in the base of the Buarghun Highlands. Today, Tieflings are known to travel about Ningonde mostly freely, though there are still areas where they are seen with fear and reservation. This prejudice mostly stems from how Tieflings came to be on Ningonde, and why.

Thousands of years ago, a grand Army of the Lords of Hell mounted an invasion of the world above, and were almost successful were it not for help from the Aasimar, and the combined might of the Wamorian empire and Cirathea. While the invasion was successfully driven back (at great cost, as the Empire of Wamoria was left a hollow shell of its former self, though it eventually reestablished itself as the sovereign city of Wamor), the touch of the devil lords of hell created the first Tieflings in the world, which eventually spread and created their own culture. Today, the sight of a Tiefling is still something many mothers use to scare their children, and though few people understand the real burden of being a Tiefling, and their disconnect in many cases with their devilish origins, Tieflings might be accused of everything from witchcraft to blasphemy to heresy.
