Ivani Nandia

Name: Ivani Nandia
Race: Chorav
Locations: The Oasis
Role: Shinra of the Nandia family

Description: At nearly four feet tall, Ivani is tall for a Chorav. She is willowy and strong, with grey hair hair that cascades past her shoulders. Her dark eyes dance with mirth, though they can turn hard and cold at a moment's notice. Her temper is legendary and she has been known to arrange the most creative of punishments for those who cross her. She is warm and generous with those who please her. Despite her lofty station, she is not above playing a good prank on friends and foes alike (though those played on foes often turn out more deadly than those played on friends).

Bio: Ivani began life as a rather ordinary Chorav. One of many young Chorav in the ancestral Nandia line, and daughter of a successful merchant, she and her two sisters wanted for little, but were expected to do their share in scavenging and trading. Eventually Ivani showed promise as a priestess, manifesting many of the qualities Faergol himself prized: sarcastic, sardonic, and full of mischief, and she naturally gravitated toward the shinrahood. Faergol himself seemed to favor her in some ways, and her powers grew impressively rapidly. She was beautiful and alluring when she wanted to be, and many suitors vied for her hand. But eventually she chose the charming but completely non-threatening Kirav as her mate. Many speculated that this was because she would not tolerate a husband who would try to control her. Of course, none would do so to her face - her temper was legendary and she would often bide her time, plotting the most elaborate of tricks as revenge for those who angered her. Kirav eventually never returned from a scavenging expedition and to this day no one really knows what happened to him. Most presume one of the giant spiders made a tasty meal of him. Others whisper that he ran away with Silva, a young Chorav woman who disappeared around the same time as Kirav. Whatever Estelle believes, she keeps to herself, and woe be to anyone who mentions Kirav in her presence.
