Rice has heard the voices all her life; ever since she was born she has heard them, she has never been alone. Her birth name was Roseanne Yuro but she gave that name up years ago. Now she is only known as Rice. It was what the voices called her and the name she gives those she meets.

Rice is short and skinny with straight ginger hair and dead green eyes. For a girl of only ten, she looks as if she has seen things that even some adults can't imagine. She often has dark circles under her eyes and a vacant look in her face. She is usually dressed in layers of baggy clothes, A dress, and smock tied at the waist with a rope, and a cloak over that. She carries everything she owns on her person, which is not a lot. A satchel, water cantine, a small sack and a pouch tied to her belt carrying all her things.

Her own skills are minimal but the beings inside her can grant her knowledge and skills that she would otherwise be unable to learn in her short 10-year-old life.

Rice
She is quite young and having lived with these beings in her head for her entire life she is unsure of what she knows as herself and what she learned from her guests.

Eoliaf
She is skilled in the art of subterfuge and murder, preferring daggers and martial arts style hand to hand combat. She is good with a spear as well and will opt for that when daggers do no apply. She is also skilled with poisons though she feels like that makes things too easy. She is decent with throwing knives and crossbows but the 10-year-old body sometimes struggles with application and heavier bows. She is skilled in the dark arts and has no qualms with killing people to get what she wants.

The Mighty One of Many Ages
He is skilled in martial combat, long swords, great swords, great axes and sword and shield combinations. At one point he had a very sound tactical mind but now he has lost much of that though at times he does have moments of lucidity. He is also skilled in Devin magic, though he does not often take over Rices body making her access to this ability rare.

Between the three of them, they know most spoken languages including some that are no longer spoken or are only still spoken in secret.

Rice is an old soul for being only ten, even when she isn't under the control of one of her guests she has spent enough time with them for their extensive age and experience to rub off on her. Sometimes she forgets she is still a child and it is often hard for her to differentiate herself from the beings in her head. To an outsider, it often looks like she is talking to herself, and her personality often seems to change abruptly and drastically when one of her guests takes control. She never stayed in one place for very long and she found it difficult to relate to her pears. She quickly learned that if she made friends they were either liable to get killed or become scared of her at some point so now she avoids people.

[1]
There are two entities living in Rice. One is a demon woman named Eoliaf, and the other is an ancient celestial war veteran who calls himself The Mighty One of Many Ages (Eoliaf just calls him Tmooma or The Aged One). About ten years ago Eoliaf was being pursued by the celestial council for a long list of crimes many of which required the death sentence. She fled to Arethil and took refuge in the body of a human infant. The Mighty One of Many Ages pursued her but was unable to retrieve her or harm her without harming the child she possessed. To solve this dilemma he also possessed the child in order to keep Eoliaf in check.

The Mighty One of Many Ages sees himself as a seasoned war veteran, and at one time he was but now he has become quite old and a bit senile. Sometimes he will still think he is in the middle of the demon wars, though most of the time he just sleeps.

Eoliaf is a very intelligent and sensual woman with a cruel streak as long as The Spine. She has a drive for power almost as strong and an instinct for survival that could rival that of a feral animal. She often finds the limitations of a ten-year-old body frustrating.
