Rinaas hli Awqar

Rinaas hlidaughter of Awqar is a travelling mystic-songstress from the regions of the Upper Azumai. She is currently the mystical and artistic guide to the Deepborn Spirit, whom she dubbed Ganisundur.He took her extended hands in his and placed his forehead upon them in humility and submission to the mistress of lovelorn song and dance, and where he touched her ink slipped and flowed into her, twisting and curling across her arms and neck before concentrating in a tiny spot at the centre of her forehead, just above her brow. There, it formed into the shape of an extended hand.
The woman looked down at him for a few moments more, and then she gripped his hands and pulled him up, and he rose as she bid him and he looked once more into her face - it was not aged, but the creases here and there betrayed that youth had long passed, and the odd streak of white in her dreads sang lowly that the white wave was soon to sweep the black shore for eventide. And yet, for all the death of youth, did the Shade find the resplendence of beauty all in her, and he wept some ink tears and bowed his head once more.
'What is your name, fellow songknower?' She asked him. The Shade brought a finger to where a mouth should have been, and where his finger touched lips formed up and he took a breath, then sighed.
'Mi- mistress,' he trembled, the words coming heavy, 'I- I don't kn- know.'
'Then I will call you Ganisundur, Beautiful Song,' she told him. A smile spread across his newly formed lips and he bowed his head.
'Th- thank you... ah, Adirinaas?' He looked to her questioningly. She laughed - revealing a small gap between her two front teeth - at his confusion, her black eyes twinkling.
'Rinaas hli Awqar is my name; there should be no titles between friends,' she told him, and he smiled timidly and nodded.https://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/5120258
== Abilities ==
Rinaas is a consecrated hero with the following abilities:
* Of the Open Hand I: The tattoo of the Hand of Ink & Poetry, downside up, lies between this person's brows; alongside the other powers of the hand, her tattoo also protects all those who hear her song from any kind of harm. The effect of this ability weakens quickly after her song is over.
* Songstress II: Rinaas has about her a permanent musical aura. While this aura is benign and acts to enhance her singing voice, it is also in communion with the Worldsong and can independently interact with it to protect Rinaas from harm. This title also grants Rinaas the capacity to weave songs that strongly affect people around her; effects depend on her tone, intention, and lyrics. A quick war-song intended to rouse the people to battle will inspire the martial instincts of those who hear her, while a slow love song intended to soften hearts will cause listeners to yearn for love and emotional requital, and so on.
* Numinous Dancer II: This is not a dancer who elicits lust or material joy in onlookers, and indeed her dancing cannot truly be termed entertainment. Rather, the dance of Rinaas taps into the natural and innate need within her audience for spiritual experience and their desire to know and be close to the divine. Those who look upon the dancing Rinaas are overwhelmed by numinous experience, and so are left trembling, awed, and humbled by the inexplicability and glory of the divine.
