Zara Aquus
The Kivren, otherwise known as the children of Kiva or Sirens, have been surrounded by mystery. Their name saturates the stories of sailors who are called into opaque mists or wake up on rocky shores far removed from their intended destination with no memory of how they got there.
Seamen speak of their ability to sing you from slumber, only to force all those who listen to drive their ships onto jagged rocks that gut the belly of their vessel. They are said to be blood-thirsty in nature, soulless and belonging to no one but themselves and the sea.
Some of the stories are true. Some are outlandish tall-tales spoken by those drinking too much rum while regaining their land-legs. No official records exist of exact truths and so most know only what can be told by drunken sailors late into the night.
All that is certain is that the water-folk are rare for a reason. When they are forced to become just the opposite, strange and terrifying things are bound to happen.

Appearance
Zara is the perfect combination of feminine curve and warrior strength. Her years of both water-bound and on-land training to protect the secrets of her watery-clan have helped in sculpting her physique. She moves with grace and purpose, always observing her surroundings. Zara has elegant but ethereal features, her face usually sticking out from a crowd. This femme usually wears loose dresses or leather pants and billowing tunic-top if she is travelling. However, Zara always has silver necklace around her neck with a single pearl dangling off it as a pendant. Her water-bound form is everything the legends speak of and more. Across the middle of her chest and from the waist-down her skin melds into silver-blue scales that shimmer with iridescent hues. Webbing forms between her fingers and ribbon-like fins almost transparent in nature form her main tail fins as well as pelvic fins on her waist.
Skills and Abilities
Although legends of sirens have somewhat distorted the truth, there is a reason behind the stories of sirens singing men to their deaths. Zara's voice does not require singing to do this however, her words like silk and velvet holding the ability to manipulate the person listening into doing what she asks.When she is emotional though, her ability can manifest without her intending it to. Sirens have also been said to be solely aquatic creatures, however few people know that sirens can in fact shift forms to suit either land or water. She is also skilled with a blade, preferring swords or daggers. Rumor has it that out of water, sirens have some control of the watery element that they were born of, but no evidence exists to prove this
Personality
Zara is quiet and observant. She is usually not impulsive, but rather prefers to think things through to analyze a situation. However, in times of extreme emotion she can become just the opposite. Although she does not trust easily, once you have earned her loyalty you are assured she will be by your side whenever you need her.
