Intense • Dedicated • Warrior

Please note: Irisha has SIX legs!

known as the ghost captain, Irisha is the captain of her ship The Courier of Souls. She sails the sea looking for those who were lost out there and helping them cross over. She spends most of her days on the seas, tending to the souls on her ship. She is a dedicated spirit walker, and an accomplished warrior. She'll defend every aspect of her crew - and her charge - to the death. She's stoic and a bit rough, but it's mostly a front.

Irisha grew up in a temple, surrounded by the souls of the dead. From a young age, she showed great prowess for the job of spirit worker. This blossomed into a disciplined, dedicated craft which she can do quite a bit of strong magic with. However, the path she's on was not the one planned for her. The last time Irisha saw her father, he was discussion Irisha's future with the temple tenders - the reason they were so harsh and disciplined with her wasn't just her talent - they wanted her to become the Voice of Vesperum.
Irisha knew that couldn't be - the voice of Vesperum must be chosen by the deity, not some little vespiri. This wasn't right!

That was when the first change came.

When she found out later that her father died, she began to plot an escape. Accompanied by her childhood friend Asce, though reluctant, she ran from that place, never to look back.
After some time, she wandered to the ocean - a place which called her more than any other. A place that scared Asce more than any other.
She knew she had to go out there - she could feel her destiny calling. That was when the second change came.

Soon, Irisha got a job aboard a ship - then another. Soon she owned her own vessel. She had to leave Asce behind - a decision she feels terrible about. But between his clever methods of communication and her own stubborn refusal to be left out, she has opened back up communication with him. Aboard her ship she feels free - far from the crushing weight of her planned destiny. She can perform her duties on her own terms - she can bring peace to spirits and their families, keeping track of each soul and bringing news to any ports she can. Her ship functions as a floating temple, a passenger ship, and sometimes a trading vessel - but for her, it represents freedom.

Random extra bit: Irisha sees each crewmember as a close friend. She tries to show it by caring for their wellbeing, taking just as much care with them as she does with spirits. She is prone to teasing most of them, but will not tolerate anyone else doing so, very much in the way older siblings do. She shares very little to them, even so, and spends much of her time working with the other side, practicing rituals, and speaking with spirits.

Fun facts: one of the original 3 vespiri to be adopted out in the old game! She was also completely broken after a small EXP issue that snowballed into her being bale to take on 3 of the strongest enemy ingame by herself... and also the three swords, or sometimes trident, may have helped. She's a badass and she knows it!
