Clothing Style

Trati doesn't particularly like wearing that much clothing considering how difficult it can be to put on over her exoskeleton without it being custom made. While working at Emdrica Fly, she wears a black and purple sleeveless top with a silver badge and shoulder guard on the left side. She wears custom sleeve-fitted arm guards, which is somewhat difficult to distinguish from her exoskeletal plates. These gauntlets also have slits for her arm blades. She also wears a purple and white armored skirt and thigh high armored boots.

Personality

Trati is a serious and hard working woman who works at Emdrica Fly and keeps things running smoothly. She comes off as a little unemotional sometimes, but she is a helpful and responsible person who does her best to assist those in need and protect those around her. She doesn't always come off as very warm and inviting, and she has a rather rough and blunt demeanor, but she means well and is ultimately a solid ally to have and a well grounded person in general. Trati is certainly very independent and focused on her goals, and she will pursue her desires regardless if anyone around her will support her, and she is not easily discouraged or intimidated. She has the hardiness and bravery of a warrior, yet she is always willing to lend an ear to others and offer advice or assistance with reasonable troubles. Trati tends to keep herself to a tight schedule and always seems to keep herself busy doing something, and she is very efficient and won't hesitate to act on any problem or confrontation around her.

Backstory

Trati was born in Detrati, Onakaiya and grew up watching her older brother undertake warrior training by the elite Scorpiral. However, when the Enlightened raided the desert one day during their childhood, her brother was nowhere to be found in the aftermath. Trati believes he was taken or killed by the Enlightened, and she insisted on being trained as a warrior despite all opposition. She eventually completed her combat training and left Onakaiya in search of information on the Enlightened. She lived on Emdrica and got a job as a waitress at Emdrica Fly, eventually being promoted to De Jack's assistant, although she continues her work as a server in the bar. She hopes the continuous stream of travelers and new information coming through will one day shed light on the fate of her brother.

Trati continues her work at Emdrica Fly, although she does not think much of her brother nearly as much anymore and has moved on. She is more concerned with the rising threat of the Enlightened threatening numerous people she holds dear.
