Pronounced Eh-keet-zhi or nicknamed Eko for short, this is my new Aasimar Rogue for a friend's DnD Campaign. I was having trouble giving her a background, so I found a random generator for it, and as I work better visually then in words decided to start with her look and see where it lead me. So far I am absolutely loving how she's going. So much so there's a second image coming up of her using her innate ability/backstory central plot point.... still a WIP but she's getting there the more I get to know her.

Eko is the second of four sisters, one of whom is actually full-blood (Younger Twin, Rheomma) and while her childhood was not fantastic by most standards, the twins themselves were considered special - particularly because of their dual eye color. It seems that Eko and Rhe shared two sets of eyes - with one of each color (Aqua and Purple) on opposite sides. They were raised by the Priests of the Church of Razmiran, believing to be children of prophecy to user in a new era of Razmir's Rule.
This allowed them to be brought up in the "First Step" - the Sacred Temple in the middle of the Exhalted Woods, where the rich priests existed in the lap of luxury and comfort, thusly they were wanting for nothing as all meals and the best education where provided for them from an early age. However, as they were two of many they were mostly otherwise ignored and treated like Acolytes come to join the priesthood. Indoctrinated into Razmir's faith from birth they were never turned away, only treated somewhat cruelly when failing in their given tasks or not meeting higher standards than others.
Upon reaching the age of 12, Eko was taken by the Razmiran Priests to a special ceremony whereby she was 'gifted' the Eye of the Leviathan... this event was so traumatic that she 'accidentally' activated it in self defence, leaving a mess before she ran away. Eko has never returned to Razmiran and has been actively hunted ever since. However, her rogue training (see below) has been phenomenal in helping her stay out of their grasp. Eko is unable to actively use the eye, as she never received the required acolyte training in order to do so, but she has a fair chance of activating one of it's abilities at random when pressured/cornered.
