Basic Information
Name: Ripi'Lee (formerly "Kallisto")
Aliases: Ripley
Gender: Female
Race: Yuan-Ti Pureblood
Age: 18
Profession: Bounty Hunter Apprentice (in search of a teacher)
Languages: Common, Yuan-Ti, Draconian
Accent: Pronounced lisp in words with S or C; she can overcome the lisp by focusing on her speech when needed.

Physical Information
Height: 6' / 1.83 meters
Weight: 155 lbs

Body build: Slim or willowy. She is nimble rather than strong.

Skin type: Very fine scales, noticeable at a close proximity, not so much at distances beyond 5 feet. It is possible for her to appear completely human with the proper makeup and clothing, although she has not (as of yet) done so.

Hair style: No hair; character's apparent "mohawk" is actually a reptilian Frill, which rises and falls according to her level of excitement or distress/anger.

Scars: No noticeable scars

Tattoos: She has a tattoo on her forehead, a Yuan_Ti hieroglyph of some nature. Those familar with the Yuan-Ti language (generally, only other Yuan-Ti, or sages who have studied or know the language) would recognize it as the word "Outcast" or "Pariah"/"Heretic" - usually given to Yuan-Ti prisoners prior to execution, or Yuan-Ti nobility too influential (themselves or their family/bloodlines) to be summarily killed outright. LORE 30 to recognize/read the marking (if non Yuan-Ti).

Colouring:

Hair: Green (Frill)
Eyes: Yellow
Skin: Pale Greenish-Gray

Mental Information
Alignment: Neutral
Philosophy: Contempt prior to investigation is to be avoided. Curiosity is a admirable trait, if tempered with caution.

Personality:
Efficient: wants to cut to the heart of the matter, resolving it as quickly as possible.
Gossipy: loves salacious and embarrassing information and rumors, although she doesn't share them as much; tends to hoard secrets, not disseminate them. This is a natural Yuan-Ti trait.
Homesick: She longs for her native swamps and wetlands.
Focused/Ruthless: Both a strength and weakness, as a bounty hunter, she will often focus on her prey to such an extreme that she ignores other useful information, or peril in her immediate environment.
Xenophobic - a personality flaw she constantly fights against, and the one that is most likely the reason she was exiled from Yuan-Ti society. Her upbringing and training taught her of the superiority of the Yuan-Ti race over all others. Her ideals are in direct opposition to this, as she desires to view all sentient life as equals. She often, one moment, pronounces another as inferior due to their lack of being snakeblooded; then realizes her mistake and corrects herself, given the opportunity.


Additional Information

Gear: She bears a unique, softly glowing bow, quiver, and two melee weapons - a longsword and dagger. Other possessions in a backpack she is never without.
Jewelry: a exquisite golden torc (close fitting necklace) with an amber stone. At very close distances a creature can be seen trapped in the amber (SPOT 25).
Habits/hobbies: Loves fishing by hand, and small doses of Liquid Pain
General Health: Robust health.
Favorite Drink: Pure water.

Unusual body part/mutation/racial: She possesses a forked tongue, which often flickers out to "taste" the air, or smell. This sense of smell is incredibly accurate, enabling her to track creatures at great distances, and detect hidden/invisible creatures nearby. In polite company she refrains from using it unless forced to (example: being pickpocketed).

Weaknesses: Addiction to Liquid pain could become an issue. Often underestimates opponents that are not Yuan-Ti, although this is due to lack of experience more than anything else, and will pass in time (if she survives it). Dehydration is an issue, as she comes from a very humid climate.

One "counter-weakness" is her knowledge of Sigilian culture, which she studied prior to traveling to the City of Doors (of course, it is "book knowledge", not practical experience, and often shows).

Origins: An exile from Faerun and the underground Yuan-Ti society dedicated to infiltration and domination of the human race (and others). Her idealistic view is considered heresy by her peers, and she narrowly escaped with her life to the City of Doors.
