15 Questions: Character Edition
Shout out to @ceph-the-ghost-writer for tagging me in this! I absolutely love games like these and getting into my character's heads!
Since I am trying to get back into the swing of things with Rane and Korzan, I think I will be using Rane for this one!

Are you named after anyone?
Not that I am aware of. I was born on a rainy day, and thus was named Rane. As for that spelling... well, you would have to ask my parents their reasoning.
When was the last time you cried?
I do not quite remember. I believe it was when I fought an injured owlbear. Even when hurt, they have nasty claws and bites. But from sadness? Years ago. It's hard to be sad when you travel as I do. It keeps the mind from wandering off.
Rane sighs. Oh, if my life had gone the way I wanted to, I would have by now. I've always wanted kids. Perhaps it is fortunate I do not. My ex-fiance... well, he would have been a terrible father. But I do want children one day. At least two, in fact. But I do not see it happening any time soon.
Only with those who deserve my sarcasm and scorn. Rane's eyes unfocus as if she's listening to someone else. Yes, Leshrun. You especially deserve my sarcasm. Stupid evil sword.
What's the first thing you notice about people?
Their clothes or armor. You can learn a lot about a person based on what they are wearing. Especially their shoes. Worn boots covered in dirt mean that someone has been on foot traveling recently while polished shoes indicate a life of luxury in the city. Beyond wealth, someone's clothing can also indicate what they do for a living, what they are up to, and a glean into their personality as well. Fashion is absolutely fascinating, isn't it?
Hazel, I believe. Although I've been told it's more yellow than green. I am not human, so perhaps for aasimar our eye color varies more. I am not certain.
Scary movies plays or happy endings?
Note: Movies don't exist in this fantasy world!
I've never been to the theater. At least, not one outside the few small plays I've seen in Neverwinter as my time as a student. I think I would prefer happy endings. I have witnessed too many scary things in my life. I do not think watching it be reenacted would interest me.
As an aasimar, I am part celestial, so I have several abilities that humans do not have, such as the ability to perform minor healing as well as make objects shine with light. However, other aasimar most likely have similar abilities to me as well. I've never met another aasimar, though. Not counting those abilities, I do think of myself as an alchemist. It is what I specialized in when I enrolled in college. I also like to think I am quite proficient at most weapons as well-- whether it be a sword, bow, dagger, or throwing axe.
In a tiny town you've most likely never heard of off the Sword's Coast. I was born in my parents' tavern. I believe an acolyte from the local temple assisted my mother as well. I can only imagine the surprise they all had when I was born with wing nubs!
Alchemy, of course. Although is it a hobby if it is a skill that keeps you alive? I also enjoy reading and studying different subjects, such as weaponry and monsters. I've recently been out in the field writing my own notes and have been practicing ciphers to encode them, just in case. After all, perhaps the wizards aren't wrong about protecting your intellectual property. I also enjoy learning new languages and meeting new people. It's one of the highlights of being a traveler.
Oh no, it would be hard to keep a pet. I have thought of getting a familiar, but I do not think it would assist me with the things I would like to do. Besides, I already have to deal with Leshrun. He almost counts as a-- Rane drops her sentence and winces as Leshrun certainly starts admonishing her in her mind.
What sports do you/have you played?
I was never interested in sports. Unless you consider learning how to use weapons and slay monsters a sport, of course.
I am six feet and three inches on my flat feet. My boots tend to add an inch or two to my height.
Favorite subject in school?
Alchemy, of course! Too bad the courses were... not quite as loved and respected as the other magical courses. My advanced alchemy classes were always so small and nearly got cancelled every semester. It wasn't the only reason why I left higher education, but one of several.
As a child, I always dreamed of being an adventurer. A hero. Someone who slayed dragons, rescued princesses, and starred in bard's tales far and wide. I do not quite meet that definition currently. I have slayed no dragons, rescued no princesses, and I doubt any bards are singing of my adventurers regarding chasing goblins and hunting game. There is something out there for me. I am meant for something. Whether one wants to call it a job, destiny, or a child's naive dreams doesn't matter to me. I know I am here to help others, and that is exactly what I will do.
