Kayahna

Physical Description
Young in appearance, Kayahna is a remarkably beautiful sindorei female. Standing at average height, she is extremely well-toned and in great shape. Her perfectly-set cheekbones and thin, pouty lips highlight her face. She has almond-shaped emerald eyes that glow softly and a nose that looks as if chisled to exactness of that of a royal sculpture. Her ears are adorned with small, golden rings - and a single studded earring set with a rare, illegal gem.

Background
Kayahna is what most would call a 'natural'. She finds her line of work a necessity to the war efforts, taking on a wide range of jobs ranging from spying on the Alliance to assassinating a radical within her own capital city...as long as it pays good. Kayahna knows she is no polital head or leader; she let's them do their job and they pay her to "help the system along". She has morals, though: she will not kill a child or innocent. Being recruited by a facist collective known as "The Dominion" she served as personal bodyguard to its self-appointed leader. Learning the truth, she left he and the other officers - taking a few with her to form "The Exiles" - a mercenary group that profited for many years before she decided to disband them all. Keeping close ties with many of them, the Exiles have been known to reunite from time to time. She also served as an assassin to another guild, where she was introduced to a young rogue who went by the name of Riethe. Taking her on as a pupil, she trained the girl to become a master of unarmed combat - teaching her to strike without being seen and using the element of speed to dispose of any adversary. Sensing an unstable quality of their leader, she left to join the ranks of the 'Wolves of Nibu' - an honorable collection of protectors. But yet, as what seemed as soon as she joined, the Wolves fell apart. Fearing she is being followed by a curse of some sort, Kayahna remained to herself for many years following; picking up jobs around Silvermoon and eventually getting noticed by Thrall himself - and asked to work for him directly.

Early Years
Kayahna was raised behind the counter of the Silvermoon Inn, as her parents owned and operated the establishment for many glorious years before the attack of the Scourge on their beautiful city. Not your typical elven girl by any means, Kayahna was more of a 'tomboy' - finding it more fun to run around and play with the local boys than sitting indoors with the girls, playing with dolls and combing each others' hair.

Seeing this on far too many occasions, Kayahna's father, Durnir - a retired Farstrider and old friend of Halduron Brightwing, thought it best to have his daughter trained in the ways of combat and self-defense. Taking her up to speak with a former war buddy, Kalthanas Nobleheart, Durnir left Kay in Noblehearts' hands for the summer. Kalthanas introduced Kayahna to his own daughter, Naita - who was also beginning her training at that time.

Studying over the summer together, Kayahna and Naita became close. Both possessing remarkable skill in unarmed combat, they constantly pushed each other to the very limits - perfecting their techniques and honing their skill far beyond the hopes of Kalthanas. He thought it would be wise to allow each to specialize in something - to compliment the other in combat. To Kayahna he gave a pair of daggers and to Naita, a bow. The summer turned into a year; a year into two. By this time, Kalthanas had taught the girls everything he knew. It was time for Kayahna to return home. Giving both Kalthanas and Naita a hug, she departed home for Silvermoon.

Personality
Kayahna has little time for the foolish, half-witted, or cocky. She can always see through a person's bluff. Her line of work has taken her to the worst possible locations of Azeroth - dealing with scum & scoundrels alike. She gives off a cold & bitter vibe. She has bested some of the most famed fighters around. Kayahna trusts her skill and is never big-headed or full of herself. Get to know her well enough and you will find a quiet, warmer side of the assassin. After all that's happened in her life, she keeps her friends quite close and in some cases tends to get slightly over-protective of them.
