Appearance:

Sariel is a tall, thin tortle with dark, leathery skin and piercing blue eyes. She has a large scar running down the side of her face, and many smaller scars crisscrossing her arms and legs. She wears simple, yet elegant robes adorned with intricate turtle shell patterns.

Interaction:

If the party encounters Sariel, she will seem jolly and welcoming at first, but her demeanor quickly changes when she realizes the party is not from her monastery. Sariel is extremely afraid of outsiders, and will view the party with suspicion. However, if the party proves themselves to be honorable and respectful, Sariel will become more friendly and may even offer to teach them some of her monk techniques.

Background:

Sariel was born into a peaceful, secluded monastery of tortles. She was trained in the art of martial arts from a young age, and showed a natural talent for it. When she reached adulthood, Sariel was deemed ready to leave the monastery and travel the world. She encountered many dangers and challenges, and each one made her stronger and more skilled. She gained a reputation as a skilled fighter and wanderer, and her legend spread far and wide. However, after a particularly harrowing encounter, Sariel developed a fear of outsiders and retreated back to her monastery. She now only leaves to explore and hone her skills, but always returns to the safety of her home.

Combat / Skills:

Sariel is a powerful monk, unafraid to use her skills and agility in a fight. She will use her stunning strike ability to incapacitate foes, and then follow up with quick and precise attacks. Her speed and nimbleness make her a difficult target to hit, and she will use her Deflect Missiles ability to deflect ranged attacks. If she is outnumbered or facing a particularly threatening opponent, she will use her Empty Body ability to turn invisible and escape.

Equipment:

Sariel carries only a quarterstaff and a small bag containing various herbs and other items for healing. She also wears an amulet that grants her extra protection.
