[Background]
TL;DR! [Personality] Tamina is a ruler. A princess. A Priestess. Beloved of the gods, she has been charged with a sacred trust to ensure the continuation of all life upon the earth. She and her people value peace, purity, grace and beauty above all else, and she is the epitome of her people. Strong in will, brave in spirit, Tamina is but one of a long line of Guardians to the sacred Dagger which rests within the city of Alamut.
However, she is also a decisive leader and a politician. She remains unruffled in the face of danger, heathen kings and disgruntled sheiks. She is quite opinionated, educated and verbal, not willing to hold her tongue when most women might in fact lose theirs for such audacity. Tamina has some skill with weapons, and is more than willing to use whatever within reach to attain her goals or defend herself and her city from unwanted inhabitants. Seen as very cool and aloof, it eventually takes rousing adventures with a Persian Prince to bring to light the fiery woman beneath, ready to sacrifice everything, including herself, for her sacred duty.
Her duty is the primary center of her life. More than likely taught since a very young age that her sacred trust was of the utmost importance, a pact from the gods, she over and over proves that it is all that fuels her thoughts and actions. More than willing to lay down her own life, happiness and all other consequences for her duty, Tamina is a servant of the Dagger first, and Princess of Alamut second.
[Specialties/Abilities] Other than brawling/sniping/annoying the everloving crap out of a certain Persian prince? Not especially.
[Affection] Males may (probably on pain of death, knowing Dastan's jealous streak) kiss her hand, but that's about it. Tamina hasn't really been "among the people" for any length of time, so it will take a while for her to warm up to people, but once she does, she will be quite friendly, but personal space still needs to be respected.
[Fighting] I'd appreciate it if we discussed it first, yes? Tamina's human; she does, however, have a smattering knowledge of sword/knifeplay and can defend herself if necessary.
[Other Permissions] Tamina's human, so her thoughts are more or less fair game. She does have a temper, however, so be careful what you uncover in there; it might be a bit volatile and unpredictable.
[Other Facts] As stated, Tamina's mood swings are legendary. And no one really knows if they're just for show, to shift circumstances her way, or if they're carefully connived and not random at all. Tamina is quite a "clever princess", after all.
