History

She originates from a small village on the far corner of the Grand Forest with her parents and friends. Due to the rot taking over the grand forest, she went unconscious but was not affected due to her inherent lack of mana (magical power). She was carried and ferried by her sick father towards the west side of the Grand Lake, who then stepped out and collapsed on the ground. Liora continued on the boat, barely conscious, and eventually got stranded on the stream next to the river hut. There she was brought in by Lauren and Vector.

Personality

Liora is blind by nature, but has a rich imagination of the world around her. She believes in her own strengths. She tries to connect with living creatures, nature, through the sounds they make and through contact. Because she grew up surrounded by others that we're able to see, she became increasingly curious about the world. Her rich imagination, full of colors, makes even the most dull of areas seem like a beautiful place.

At times, when she is confronted with her inability to do something due to her blindness, she feels a bit insecure, but will try to hide it by overflowing with positivity. When her feelings reach a tipping point, she avoids all contact with anyone around her, and seeks an isolated place of nature around her. There she will gently cry, about how she can't see the sky or the colors of the flowers. However, on each of the occasions that this happened to her, she received a spark of inspiration from the mana flowing through the forest. All things around, living or dead, would whisper to her. The forest begins to play strands of music and she is carried by the sound, back to her home.

She has more energy than any of the other children in her home town, and this gives her a personality to put in more effort, and go beyond "normal" for anything she is asked to do. She loves to sing and to use her voice to talk to the surroundings. Due to this natural ability to connect, she quickly befriended many animals of the forest. Kestrel quickly bonds with her because he can sense this relationship with her.

Liora enjoys to play and to puzzle. Because she can't see most things, she spends more time with them and as a result, understands them far better than anyone else. Because of this, she also enjoyed doing puzzles that require her to feel, touch and hear. In conversation, she loves to ask questions.
