*Other: frequently has a broad band of dark-brown pigment that covers over her eyes about the height of her ear and goes completely from one side of her face to the other. If presented with the chance, she has also been seen daubing designs onto her arms, legs and abdomen. The meaning of these painted-on tattoos are thought to be symbolic to the culture she came from.
*Piercings [all made from bone]:
+stud below her lower lip above her chin
+studs in her earlobes
+small ring in her septum
When wearing all her jewellry, the studs would be made from polished bone to match the bone and amber chains that'd drape from the nose ring to the piercings in her ears. The stud situated beneath her lower lip and above her chin would either remain just a stud, or would have a small spike.

General Information
Character Description: Whether in her animal form or the more commonly seen golden-eyed woman, the storyteller was decorative. Turquoise beads were worn in the thick ink-black curls of hair that fell to jaw's length. A broad band of pigment across her eyes, with weighty necklaces worn low, was a sign of the trickster's maturity. One small bone ring pierced her septum, while a stud sat below those wry-smiling lips with ink on either hipbone, visible above the low-slung loincloth that reached level with the ankles where bands of ochre marked. The Mesoamerican's physique had a softness throughout the subtle muscle; a healthy build. A simplistic collar bore no owner's name. 'Waterchild', a Lutran.
