Talents: Religion and the “Science” of Magicka are her two major specialties, as well as some dabbling in Alchemy. While she dedicated as much time as she could on growing her abilities at the College, she also spent the majority of her time reading about the various religions Tamriel’s cultures had, as well as the various theories of how magicka worked. This led to a lot of sleepless nights conducting different magical experiments on her better trained mage friends.
Goals: To learn how strong her magical abilities are, and to find her twin brother
Gear & Fighting Style
[Ysara's skillset]
Head: Dark Gray/Black Fur Hood, lined with the soft down fur on the inside
Chest: Dark Gray/Black Fur Robes
Arms: Her left arm has a Fur Bracer that matches her robes and hood, with an easily removable black glove on the hand. Her left arm is wearing a darkened Elven Gauntlet
Waist: Simple leather belt with pouches and a sword sheath
Legs: Black Fur Leggings
Feet: Elven Boots
Jewelry: A silver pendant resembling a stag, the sigil of her family name. Also called the
Rallis Stag.
Every Day Carry: Outside of the clothes on her back, Ysara doesn’t carry much in her small leather satchel. She may have some small amounts of coin, or some small snacking items. However the two things she is almost always carrying, are her current reading material (Advanced Restoration Spells for the trained Mage), and Kenza her pet Weasel.
Weapons: The only weapon that she is trained with, and carries with her, is her father’s sword
Gleam. Though she is only adequately trained to use it, if it comes down to it, she can be a force to be reckoned with.
Magicka: Her main magicka proficiency is her Restoration. Though most of her skills are focused on healing and wards, she is trying to train a little bit more with the undead offensive side too. Her second proficiency is Destruction, though rather limited. Her focus with the magicka is Cyromancy. She has used most other magicka schools, but has no training in them outside of the single spell or two she knows for them.
Fighting Abilities: She is more than capable enough in battle with her Cyromancy alone, however, if things get tight or she finds her magicka pool low, Gleam is her next best option.
Fighting Style: She prefers not to fight at all, if the option is available. However, if there is no choice, she prefers to stay back, healing those around her if she is in a group. If alone, she focuses on her Cyromancy entirely until she is forced to switch to Gleam.
Misc.
Kenza the Weasel: Kenza is Longtailed Weasel that is always in her snow-white winter-coat. This is likely due to where she is from (Winterhold in Skyrim). Ysara found Kenza caught in a trap just outside the city of Winterhold, upon first arriving at the city. Though Ysara had no intention of making the creature a pet or companion, after she freed and healed the rodent, it simply followed her around. So much so that people assumed they were together. This led to Ysara adopting the weasel as her friend, naming her Kenza and taking responsibility for her. Over time, the two have grown rather close, and Ysara considers Kenza her only true friend. Kenza isn’t really trained at all, but she has her own mischievous intelligence. When she isn’t snooping around or playing, Kenza simply wraps herself around Ysara’s neck and shoulder, and watches her do whatever she is doing. Sometimes, Kenza acts as a sort of retriever, and can understand when Ysara needs something without her asking. People often tied notes to the weasel, meant for Ysara to read as well. Overall, she is just a great companion and friend.
Bio
She, along with her brother, were born in flames. Though she doesn’t remember what happened that caused her family to be destroyed, her twin brother does, and he never shared the memory with her. After the tragedy, they were taken in by Travian Rallis of Skingrad. He was a simple man who led the guard of the city.
After a certain time, Travian wished to take his children away from the tragic memories that haunted Tyrian. So, they joined a caravan of Mercenaries, who's members consisted of Imperial Vets, and a manor of highly trained warriors. Shortly after joining the caravan, Travian was killed on a contract, and his responsibilities for the children were passed to the caravan. She, along with her brother were trained to fight, but Ysara had never really found it appealing.
Around the age of 17, when her Brother left the caravan, looking for his own way, she refused to train any more. She wanted to focus her mind on the magicka skills she felt she possessed instead. So she gathered everything she owned, and headed north towards the College of Winterhold. Where she helped Urag gro-Shub, as one among many of the Arcanaeum's caretakers under his guidance. After 5 years of learning and practicing what she could, Ysara decided her time at the college was over. She wanted to continue learning about her magicka and magicka in general, as well as find her brother.
After a year of traveling Skyrim and Cyrodiil, she found herself settled at an inn in Leyawiin, working as a barmaid for a free room and some small coin. This was where she heard about the Guild in Sunlock. She had overheard a couple of ‘well to do’ men discussing their work, as well as their varied and vast knowledge. This had intrigued her, so she asked around a bit more, what she found was the determination to sail the Topal Bay to the island, in order to join this guild. She wishes to continue learning about herself, her magicka as well as the ways of Nirn.
