Remembered Realms - Lankieral "Kiira" Craulnober

Had time to kill on a cross-country flight recently, so I sketched myself up a Kiira and now I'm Paint.NETing it and inflicting it on the world. Cut for size.

My friends say I should act my age/What's my age again? )

Incidentally, Thirdborn Sun (Son in the original Undercommon, pun inserted in translation*) is a rock band, based in Eryndlyn and big on the random religious symbolism. (Cue Veldrin: "Do you even know what that means?" Well, he could figure out what the lyrics are actually saying, but he usually doesn't care)

*Incidentally-incidentally, I'm aware of a school of thought that thinks English-based puns in fantasy worlds are twee, with possible reason. All I can say is if a published Realms writer can have their character make cracks about "trends of tren" then I feel I can proceed somewhat at will.

Writer's Block: Scaredy cat

My immediate reaction was slugs, which is probably irrational, but I'm going with it. If one was actually shoved in my face it wouldn't be as bad as, say, a shark, but they just really bang on my amygdala and my revulsion center.

I remember in elementary school I went to a day camp in a redwood forest that was crawling with the things (specifically the banana variety) and a running joke was kissing them and one of the frequent songs was a love song to banana slugs. Yeah, I didn't really like that camp. They might keep the forest running, but keep them the hell away from me. I'm such a stereotypical girl.
