Kishi

Kishi is a half-orc from a small community in Myrtos of the same race, not that she ever truly belonged there. Even as a child, Kishi displayed abilities far above what was expected or even considered possible. From birth, Kishi was unable to speak.. not that that hindered her. She soon developed her natural magical abilities to be able to speak into other's minds, the potentially frustrating disability reduced to a mere quirk. She solved all of her problems just as easily whenever she encountered them (which was rare). Effortlessly mastering every activity she attempted, the half-orc with remarkable promise understandably grew quite an ego.

The nobility of Myrtos, and more exactly the children of said nobility, felt Kishi was undeserving of the gifts she had been given, the seemingly divine fortune bestowed upon her unacceptable. Kishi felt this distaste for her firsthand when she joined as an acolyte of Myrtos, given a prestigious position within the temple as soon as she was of appropriate age. This caused the young nobility who felt that such positions were their birthright to be even more frustrated with her, not that she cared.

Eventually, the work within the temple grew boring. When the Oracle/Queen sent word that help was needed for an equally important and dangerous adventure, Kishi was happy to be pulled back from her current missionary position (wink) and return to heed the call, joining The Retinue and beginning their adventures together.

Kishi has since carried more than her weight, making sure that not one member of the rapidly replaced retinue has died since her joining it. Despite being a sorcerer, she has been the physically strongest in the party for the vast majority of the groups existence. Her abilities were key in the downing of a large dragon attacking the city of Myrtos. She then competed in the Olympiad, qualifying for every event and placing in most of them despite competing against proper athletes. She placed second overall, with multiple golds, a silver, and a couple of bronze medals.

Her performance gained the attention of local businesses, and she serves as a sponsoree/model/participant in the exotic Siren's Roost.
