Lena | femme presenting | Equine
"I am the creature no one wished for, but I'll continue existing regardless."
Both a owner of a bath house located to the south and a unwatned child from Nyeme. Lena is a quiet soul trying to make themself smaller than what they can ever be. Looking to make up for whatever they may have done or whatever they'll do in the future when they cannot control themself.
Lena is described often as moony. They're distant, quiet, aloof, and unassuming. Listless and always mentally wandering. Or at least appears as such. Truthfully Lena is trying to make themselves as friendly and harmless as possible in light of the recent events throughout Ivras. No one can tattle on a beast if the beast doesn't bite…right?
They pride themselves on their docile nature, but really what makes them standout is their charity. As unassuming as they are, they go out of their way to assist any means to those around them regardless of their stances on mages. Calling the wolf from the forest more often than not. They may not seek out trouble, but their actions always have good intentions.
A child of the order, Lakatos is a well educated person who is neither naive nor ignorant. Just idealistic. While not the best spoken person in the world, they still showcase their knowledge and gain wisdom when the opportunity calls for it.

Magic has gifted the fair Lena the ability to transform into a beast to protect themselves. Lovingly dubbed the other half. A dragonid who hungers for their hoard.
Power: The general skill set of the form and it's power. The main skill is fire breath which is limited. Spurts in the second form, Smoke in the first. Additions in the future are: stregnth, scale armor, and hightened senses (smell/hearing)
Discipline: the ability to take control of the dragonic form. As of right now they lack conrtol in form but can willingly shift. Once a week will shift to run in the woods to keep it tame.
Cost: Magic use has a long-term adverse effect on the caster's mood/frame of mind. The insessent nagging of collecting riches for the hoard.
Corruption: The merging of forms, lena will take on more elements of the dragon and will change to be more focused on the hoard.
Much like many of the mages from Nyeme. They were sent over the bay to Namarast when it was discovered that they were a mage. As soon as the equine left the womb it was clear that they were a mage. Barring wings and scales. Unable to hide this, they were sent over as an infant to be raised by the order. Passing hands through the years in its walls, Helena - as they were named by their guardians - learned alongside other children to read and write. It was clear what they were from a child and great care was taken to try and teach them how to control their other half. But as time bore on they realized how futile it was since the other form seemed to have its own consciousness. So instead of control they began to learn how to secure it. Much to Lena’s dismay, They would be kept in close sight of multiple mages whenever they had to transform. And much to the order’s own behest, Lena had an incessant need to steal valuables from them.
The older they grew the more regulated the transformations became, and the order was able to adapt around them. Transformations once a week were scheduled, allowing Lena the rest of the time to continue their studies and even work in the town as a seamstress. Ultimately allowed them to stop stealing as they were now earning gold to add to their hoard. For the first time in their life, it was calm and domestic. They finished their formal education and worked full time and quelled the other half. Bliss filled their senses as they continued to live in naramast.
That was until Archmage Hagia transformed.
The tension was wrought in Naramast. The battles between the witch finder and her opponents bled into the streets and conversations. And when Miriam ultimately was chosen. Lena took their hoard and fled without another word. They made it out to mead before Miriam had ascended. Now free and armed with a considerable amount of money. It was the matter of where to go next.
So, they went north.
They kept traveling, but they forgot to consider something so routine in their life in naramast. They went to sleep one night and woke up a day later in a different location. Their heart banged across their rib cage realizing their lap of judgment. The other half never came without supervision, but upon exploring they realized it brought the hoard with them and continued to travel the same route Lena was planning on taking.
The other half worked in tandem with what Lena was planning to do.
It was something no one in a controlled environment has discovered, and now Lena had more unwavering freedom than what they thought they had.
Now with a perk in their step, the horse kept walking north before they found the perfect spot to settle. At least the other half had found it. They woke up to a shallow hot spring deep from the sunlight one morning. The cavern was gorgeous with the floor littered with hot springs and pools. The hoard itself would be hard to find in its maze making it perfectly safe. The location wasn't far from the roads leading to Faline.
And the land itself had no claim. An idea began to form. At the cost of the hoard, Lena purchased the land and began transforming the cavern to a bathhouse to serve travelers or those who weren't interested in the crowded baths in the city.
And thus that is where Lena stands. Bathhouse located outside of Faline in a cavern full of natural hot springs. Living deeper than what the patrons can go to hide a hoard of wealth they earn from their business. And slowly learning to get along with the second half.
