Appearance

Physical Description

In disguise: A slightly disheveled teenage boy with a heaping bundle of scrolls in his arms, threatening to spill out all over the floor. He wears a pair of spectacles which perch precariously on his nose.
 
Normally: A well-dressed teenage girl, with scrolls and potions carefully and properly stored away in leather cases and pockets. She has a pair of goggles pushed upon her forehead, which she uses occasionally for eye protection.

Body Features

Tarin is slender and a little taller than the average female.

Facial Features

Tarin has attractive, but not remarkable facial features. Her youth allowed her to pass as male, but when dressed as female and wearing her hair in a more feminine style, she could be described as pretty.

Identifying Characteristics

Tarin prefers to wear her hair either short, or tied up in a ponytail.

Apparel & Accessories

Tarin wears practical well-made clothing, fabrics that resist cold and water, and a pair of tough, sturdy boots.

Specialized Equipment

Tarin has many leather belts and boleros that help her secure scrolls, potions, tinctures, mixtures, and other items of magical and alchemical bents. On her forehead she keeps a pair of goggles for eye protection, necessary when brewing dangerous alchemical mixtures.

Special abilities

Tarin is a near-savant at the crafting of all things magical. She has progressed quickly from a nobody into a promising young wizard.

Mentality

Education

Tarin has no formal formal education, but she gleaned some lessons about alchemy and scroll scribing from her previous employer Ellixander Woodworth. She supplemented this with many late nights studying magic on her own using the resources of the shop. Since she became Timoo Timbertown's apprentice, she has grown greatly as a wizard and a crafter of magical items and elixirs.

Personality

Motivation

Tarin specializes in divination, is quite adept at scribing scrolls, and has an interest in alchemy. She is eager to talk shop as she casts Identify, a spell she casts quickly and efficiently. The teenager is a bit nervous, but she is also gregarious, eager to help, and very excited to be a member of Hubert's Companions.

Savvies & Ineptitudes

When she was disguised as a boy, Tarin dressed in a more disheveled and sloppy manner, and made efforts to appear messy and disorganized, in an effort to distract from her actual gender. Once she put the ruse aside, it turns out she is actually quite put-together, well-organized, and extremely meticulous in both dress and manner.

Contacts & Relations

Tarin's former teacher and employer Ellixander Woodworth was previously Tarin's only real acquaintance. While she was treated fairly at her job, she often had to work grueling hours to satisfy Woodworth, and she often had to bear his constant sexism without comment, out of fear of reprisal. She was eager to leave his employment and has not missed him or the cold, bitter climate of Fleet Town much at all.
 
Since joining Hubert's Companions she has made fast friends with the entire retinue. She looks of to Timoo as a mentor, and is exceptionally impressed by Narrassah of the Twirling Spear, whom she sees as a strong female role-model. She and Howe Irontoe  get along very well, and often converse and joke with each other while they work. Meeka has become like a little sister to Tarin, and her fondness for the little kobold girl is obvious. She feeds Jerome  treats whenever Yarpen Zigren isn't looking and loves to cuddle up to his soft fur at night.

Wealth & Financial state

Tarin is working for Timoo for the experience, rather than for pay. She has a moderate amount of gold that she earned from working at The Sorcerer's Source.

Family Ties

Tarin's family was rather large, and had no interest in fostering her magical interests, nor did they really have the resources to help her along. Her father was rarely present at home, and her mother struggled to give equal attention to all her children. Her siblings were competitive, and did not seem to understand her interests or beliefs. She left her family to work for The Sorcerer's Source as soon as she was at an age to get a job, and her family did not seem to begrudge her this. Any emotional ties to her family have seemingly been severed at this point.

Religious Views

Tarin follows Mágosa, the goddess of magic and water. She is not exceedingly faithful, but she remembers to say her prayers weekly and makes occasional offerings at her Temples when they are near one.

Social Aptitude

Tarin has evolved from a disheveled, messy young boy into a well-mannered, pleasant young girl. Much of this was in fact, an affected mannerism which she dropped once her disguise was no longer necessary.

Mannerisms

Tarin is careful about her movements and behaviors. She knows that clumsiness in the lab can lead to accidents, which lead to injuries. She is well-spoken and has precise diction.

Hobbies & Pets

Tarin has a familiar, a hawk named Minerva, which she is quite fond of. She also considers Jerome  to be her pet almost as much as Minerva.

Speech

Tarin is well-spoken and has precise diction.
