Name: Naalti Ezal, known as “Silver Rose” by reputation
Age: 61
Race: Myti
Appearance: The archetypal female Myti, Naalti is as lean, fur-covered, and cat-like as a bipedal organism can get. However, she is tall for a Myti, towering over many of her kin at 5’7. Her fur has a gray and black leopard pattern, and her feline face exudes a warm yet elegant glow. There’s something intimidating but friendly about it - a mix of attributes that can sometimes throw off those around her just a little bit to keep them on edge. Her yellowish eyes have often been described as “soul-piercing,” though what that means specifically can vary from person to person.
Personality: Naalti is what one might label a “chaotic good” type: not much adherence to rules, but a strong interest in the well-being of the people around her and the society she lives in. If breaking a few rules saves a few lives or makes people happier, then the rules were probably meant to be broken, right? This can come across as a very self-serving mindset, especially because Naalti has a tendency to act first, think later.
When it comes to interpersonal skills, Naalti is known to be warm and empathetic to most, though she is also known to have a hell of a cold shoulder when she decides she dislikes someone. She trusts her gut when assessing people, and often relies on first impressions and intuition in order to read those around her. She jokingly calls it her “cat sense.”
Home Nation: Leias
Magical Capabilities: Like many Myti, Naalti focuses her energy towards Psychic magic with a little Soul magic in her repertoire. She uses her ability primarily for restorative and medical purposes, and as such, Naalti is a renowned healer across Thoris despite her young age for her kind. Much of her reputation lies not in her skill as a healer, but the warmth with which she heals. She has some skill with physical healing, of course, and can speed up healing processes to rates faster than normal with Soul magic, but her specialization lies in her usage of Psychic magic to calm patients and ease their pain or anxiety. She is often summoned to not only heal injuries, but to oversee disputes and mediate disagreements. Her job is as political as it is medical.
Occasionally, she’s asked to use her skill with Psychic magic - as well as her body - for more erotic purposes. Naalti often demands great recompense for her services, but is not as against the concept as one might think, should the right offer come her way.
That said, while Naalti’s control over magic is largely beneficial to those around her, she has some skill with darker forms of Psychic magic and Soul magic for self-defense purposes. If under attack, Naalti can rearrange her attacker’s thought processes as her primary magical defense. On the surface, it appears that she can erase memories, but she describes it more as “moving memories and thoughts so they can’t be found for a while.” A similar effect, but an entirely different, and significantly less exhausing, process. Naalti also can use her Soul magic to re-open old wounds or scars of opponents or redirect energy between different muscle groups if she comes into contact with them. In other words, if she can touch you with her mana focused, she can send your muscles into uncontrolled spasms for a short period of time.
She’s known to dip her feet into other areas of magic where she can, but her skill in any other area can be described as amateur, at best.
History: Naalti was born, like many of her kin, amongst the trees of Leias, one of many in a litter. She knew who her birth parents were, but ultimately, it didn’t mean much; as with many in Myti culture, Naalti was raised by a group of adult Myti with many siblings, both of blood and not. From an early age, it was clear that she had an affinity for magic even greater than that of the average Myti. Naalti was taken under the wing of some of the more practiced casters in Leias, honing her skill and refining her abilities for much of her early life.
She took to Psychic and Soul magic, putting her mind to learning the intricacies of such complex magics. While she preferred to use her magical power to heal others, she also learned of the darker sides of magic. Wary of their effects, but also too curious for her own good, Naalti also spent time studying how Psychic and Soul magic could be used for more sinister ends in an effort to simply understand what kind of power she, and any other caster, could be capable of.
After over two decades of training in Leias, Naalti grew disillusioned with Leias and its endless expanse of woodlands. After long hours of debate with her mentors and her family, Naalti decided to leave Leias and explore Thoris on her own, around the age of 45.
She made her living as a healer and as a counselor, using her magical skills to her advantage. Word quickly spread of the Myti in Arcadia whose healing skills were certainly above average, but was mostly recommended for the ease and warmth with which she healed. Her business grew, and it was only a few years before Naalti found herself travelling across Thoris to attend to clientele of great wealth and esteem.
As she approached 60, knights and paladins of Arcadia began to seek out the renowned “Silver Rose of Arcadia” to help them recover from injury and move past their traumas. While her work has shifted largely towards helping soldiers and former soldiers, Naalti has made it a point to still leave room to help those outside of the military, keeping her doors open for any who might need her assistance.
