.:Name:. Tira Kom Yujleda| ~ • ~ | Character Basics | ~ • ~ |
.:Nick Name:. Tia
.:Affiliation:. Yujleda, Ingranrona
.:Age:. Twenty-Six
| ~ • ~ | Appearance | ~ • ~ |
.:Physical Appearance:. Tira is very small in appearance and quite slim. She's taken after her father in many ways, sharing his large brown eyes and dark hair. Her skin is a few shades darker than her rather pale father; her tan skin gifted to her by her mother. Despite always being told how much like her father she appeared, he would always say that she reminded him of her mother. Her style is often light with a simple cloth dress and the occasional shawl to cover herself against the elements. Yujleda territory is incredibly warm, and her fashion has certainly reflected that. She keeps her hair down instead of tied back in braids and doesn't wear warpaint. She has no kill marks, as she's never taken the life of another human intentionally. Though, if she had, she probably wouldn't want to keep a record of it.
.:Height:. 5'4"

.:Personality:. Tira is attached to her family, though she has never had much of it. Sometimes she believes that her lack of abundant immediate family was why she was so attached to the ones that she had. She's protective of them and will often go out of her way to provide for them, be it through difficult work or travel. She's always kept those she loves closest to her and has never allowed them to go hungry. She's very skilled with raising crops and is often the only one in the village who can grow certain plants. Her presence in numerous villages is prominent, especially as she is one of the most involved midwives close to the capital.
.:Special Skills:. Tira is charismatic and loving and this often makes trade and socialization easy for her. She's a skilled farmer and midwife and is known for both skills. Though limited, she's competent with a bow.

.:Birthplace:. Ingranrona Territory
.:Family:. Tira's father is still living, and she lives very close to him on a small farm just south of Yujleda's capital city. She has an adopted son named Marco.
.:Occupation:. Farmer, Midwife, Trader
.:History:. Tira was born in a camp deep within the Ingranrona territory. Her birth was early and her family had been moving north towards a village where it would have been safe for her mother to give birth. Unfortunately, her mother was lost when Tira was born, leaving her father alone in caring for her. She never went hungry, as even though he was not a warrior, Tira's father had ample land and food. He farmed both crops and livestock and raised her on his farm land. This was all temporary though. The dry season came and was especially crippling. Drought caused the crops to wither and the livestock to go hungry. They were forced to slaughter their remaining animals and trade the meats for grain and water in various villages. During their travels, her father met a warrior that hailed from Yujleda lands. She was beautiful; tall and powerful. Tira adored watching her train with her people. The two of them grew rather close, and her father fell in love.
With the blessing of both clans, Tira's father left Ingranrona for Yujleda. He and the warrior woman married soon after and had another child. Tira was sixteen when they started a farm in the tropical lands. They grew many fruits and vegetables and soon raised livestock there as well. Tira's brother was raised to be a warrior while Tira focused instead on learning to farm the new, humid lands. Rains came often, making for bountiful crops each year. The family did well for themselves. She grew closer to those in the capital each time she came to trade goods and deliver crops to the Emperor's family. In the capital, she met Vero. They became good friends-- she even gifted him a horse when he had finished his training. Before that, they had shared intimate moments with one another, however fleeting they were. Her father didn't like her spending so much time around him, but she enjoyed being rebellious. It didn't last long, but it was memorable.
When Tira was twenty years old, her father's wife fell in battle, along with Tira's half brother. It was devastating. Her father shut down for a time, forcing Tira to care for him and the farm. While in the village, she also trained as a midwife, as births were so frequent in the capital. It was a lot to handle on her own, and when she was twenty-four another bundle fell into her arms. A child was born to a single mother, who passed away during the delivery. With nowhere to go, Tira adopted the baby boy that had been born and named him Marco. She's raised him as her own child since... Though much of her life is spent on the farm, she does dream of one day having more freedom to do as she desires. She wishes to take her son to the edges of every territory to show him things that she once saw so frequently. For now though, she cares for her father and son-- along with the lands they have acquired.
