Yelrona
Meira Yelrona
Overview
Appearance
Yelrona is a young (117) Dawn Elf, short (4'2") and compact, but muscular. She is fairly obviously an Inquisitor or some other martial religious order, but sports a mischievous smirk, dancing eyes, and a playful manner that belies the class's reputation.
Her skin is a warm coppery tone that almost seems to glow in the sun. Her dark brown hair hangs to her waist, usually in a tightly woven braid that she tucks into her tunic so it doesn't get in her way. Her eyes are light green, wide-set, and usually glancing around playfully, her expression usually amused and often laughing outright.
Her adventuring gear generally includes a longbow and breastplate, both clearly enchanted, and a variety of melee weapons tucked into a luxurious black leather belt with a cat's-head buckle. She wears a medallion around her neck, displaying a coyote's head on a field of stars, along with a large canine tooth fashioned into an amulet, and a small high-quality grey cape with steel and silver threads woven into it draped over her shoulders. She usually has a complicated hairclip in her hair, the appearance of which changes regularly, sometimes while you're looking at it. Her clothes typically sport a plethora of small pouches and pockets, and are well-suited for stealth. Black calf-high boots and elbow-length bracers complete the outfit, along with fingerless leather gloves that reveal two rings: one of silver with feathers stamped along the edge, the other a simple heavy steel band.
When not adventuring she usually tops all of this off with a colorful light silk robe composed of numerous brightly-colored detachable silks of varying sizes, mostly greens and oranges, giving her a colorful and celebratory appearance. She often sports brightly colored facepaint, sometimes in relatively traditional forms like eyeshadow, other times in wild and whimsical patterns.
Summary
Yelrona is a Llyranesi from the Mythwood. She was raised to be a Seer of Eluna but due to Zykka's interference became a Rogue instead. She has since then Gotten the Joke and joined Tarien's service, retraining as a Ruffian.
She is impulsive by nature, and her time among Tarienites has exacerbated this. When fate opens a door, she steps through it. So she will basically go along with any crazy random harebrained scheme as long as it's not obviously suicidal or, you know, evil. So if you approach her with a "Hey, let's go do X!" she will more than likely agree.
She is a comedian. That's not to say she's necessarily funny, but she is constantly joking and poking fun at things. She usually invokes her spells by telling jokes, which Tarien seems to approve of.
She is an adventurer. Mostly she takes stealth/infiltration/spying jobs through the Adventurer's Guild and doesn't talk about them much. Sometimes she joins adventuring parties for more standard missions. She is primarily an Archer; her preferred weapon is the composite longbow. She has access to healing magic, and is skilled at scouting, infiltration and spycraft (Disguise, Bluff, Sense Motive, Perception, Stealth, Survival/tracking).
She is not a criminal, exactly, but is an active part of the Alexandria criminal underworld.
She is not an Acquisitioner, but her father was, and she learned a lot about them (including a few basic recognition signs) from him.
She is not a Liberator, but she was rescued by them as a child and remains friends with the leader of a Chapter of Liberators in the Mythwood. She is a founding member of the unofficial Slavers Inquisition in Alexandria.
She is seeking her missing father Avourel, whom she knows was in Alexandria at least 15 years ago, and she fears has been corrupted by necromancy.

Roleplay Hooks
Want to RP with Rona? Just walk up and introduce yourself! Or page me if I'm not on grid. Random socialization is fun.
That said, some suggestions for things to talk about, if they interest you:
- Criminal activity in the Warehouse District (more info)
- Her missing father Avourel.
- Tarien (more info)
- Goings on in the Mythwood, especially around her home town
- Her rivalry with R'ulq
- Spying on enemies of Alexandria (more info)
We can also plot OOC about these things... less talking, more doing!
Or other things!

Underworld Activity
Though not a criminal herself (well, not exactly, anyway) she is an active part of the Alexandria criminal underworld, a de-facto member of the Guild of the Sly, and Connected within the Warehouse District, most especially among its criminal elements. She generally knows what's going on there, and what she doesn't know she can find out about.
Although she is most closely connected with the Guild she has unofficial contacts and influence within competing organizations operating within the Warehouse District as well, such as the Sunset, the Ebon Syndicate, and the Shrouded Wings
She works to steer the Warehouse criminal element away from genuinely harmful activity. "If you're going to rob a business' storehouse, why not steal from a business that treats its employees poorly, or whose owner is a follower of Taara, or something like that? Their money clinks just as satisfyingly, and the common folk will see this and know you're on their side. Which will come in handy when you need an alibi, or need someone to not tell the Guard where you're hiding, or...?" This doesn't have a significant impact on anything, really, but she tries.
She has Rivals: R'ulq of the Sunset and Amen Husul of the Shrouded Wings.
She recently "sponsored" Murder in the Guild of the Sly, if that term can apply to such an unofficial organization.
