Betta

From a small family living in the woods connected to a family of good quori- over centuries many quori have separated from the evil quori and even learned from kalashtar to appear like them(humanoid)- it is a give and take relationship, the quori and kalashtar both learn from each other about their respective worlds. Betta’s family have been connected to this particular family of quori for generations, through worship and sleep/connection, some of Betta’s family members have been able to invite their spirits to possess them. The families on the parallel planes have grown to mirror each other, with similar looking family trees and therefore a parallel spirit. Betta’s parallel spirit is named Alyson. Betta and Allie are both very committed to their families, but being the youngest of their generation, have more adventurous spirits. They have not been able to pull off possession yet, which Allie is really looking forward to succeeding in because Betta gets to visit her realm every time she sleeps. Convincing her family that it would be beneficial to forming a deeper connection with Allie, they allowed her to leave her home. Her family was skeptical of letting her go, because she was young and the last child they let go off on their own, Betta’s older sister (unnamed at this point), disappeared when Betta was only 9. Her corresponding spirit, upon her disappearance, became evil and rabid, morphing back into a regular nightmare quori. Usually when the kalashtar the spirit is connected to dies in this family, the corresponding spirit will fade away (with no anchor left to tie them to the mortal realm), at peace. The kalashtar and quori believe their spirits become one after death, joining together in nature in a tree that grows over the Kalashtar’s grave.
