Personality

Sara is not the most boisterous mage to grace the halls of Namarast. She is quite solemn and soft spoken, but do not take that for shyness or cowardice. No, a large family doesn’t allow for qualities such as though, so the young mage is very firm and honest in her outlook. She is well read and very intentional with her words. Sara is very content in silence and will not put forth effort to ease someone’s discomfort in this. As a result, she can come off as quite wistful or dreamy, dipping into creepy at times. Her eyes linger as she contemplates and she certainly does not apologize, only explains herself more.

History

Born to an established family in Faline, Sara is the third of five children. Ryu and Navi were a handsome pair, but marriage for love may not have been their true intentions. Regardless, Navi’s attention to her children was loving enough to cover Ryu’s absence. Sara’s eldest siblings, Li and Atsuga, were inarguably model children. Li took after Ryu and Atsuga, Navi. When Sara was born, she raised some alarm with her likeness, but her bloodline was never challenged. After her came Jiro and then finally Yoshiro. The family was large, but had more than enough resources to maintain themselves. They had a fair home in Faline and a summer home to live in in the country near Mirror Bay.

With such a generally lavish lifestyle, the family was content. At age five, just after her sibling Yoshiro’s birth, Sara began showing signs of a magical inclination. Navi, a mage long since graduated from Namarast, took to the child less hospitably than before. Sara’s budding ability became a well to endlessly critique and judge. Navi thought she was doing best to tirelessly improve her daughter’s magical skill before she could enroll in schooling, but Sara yearned for the tenderness her mother showed her siblings.

As Sara moved on to Namarast, she missed her siblings. She wrote when she could, but very seldom got a letter back. As time went on, Sara found comfort in the loneliness and found herself in books. She enjoyed classes and learning and quickly picked up new skills. The young mage had an affinity for transmutation and grew to specialize in that field of magic as an apprentice.

Now graduated and a fully fledged Oder Mage, Sara continues research in her field at Namarast. She has a bit more freedom now and travels to see her family in Faline when she can. Indeed, she is quite mobile and has been said to make it to Faline before the sun sets on Namarast.

Costs

• Transformations to a beast of a similar size lasts up to one day. While there is no discernable restriction to movement or ability, maintaining this transformation requires concentration and as a result high-intelligence tasks become more difficult.
• Transformation to much larger beasts takes considerable strength and is limited to 8 hours. Movement and strength are lowered, though intelligence remains relatively the same. 
• Transformation to much smaller beasts takes considerable concentration and is limited to 8 hours. The amount of discipline needed to maintain the size increases as the size of the beast decreases. Movement and speed are heightened, and strength and power lessened. Intelligence is also reduced as a result of concentration. 
• Copying someone's likeness takes extreme power and discipline, and as such, is limited to 3 hour periods. It is extremely demanding and requires rest to perform again.
