+ Personal Details
Eyes: At first glance, Kolnatha's eyes appear to be a pale dusty blue. However, those with a keen sense may notice that the drow's right eye has a slight different hue. Bordering her pupil, there is a hint of a golden ring encircling it. Does this have any significate?
Hair: As expected of a drow, Koh shares the silvery white hair that marks her kin. With her nomadic life style, she has little time to fuss with styling her hair. Commonly, it is pulled back into a ponytail with a simple braid that runs along the left side of her head. Koh tries her best to keep her hair out of the way but there are always strands of hair that refuse to play nice with the rest and the dangle around her face. On the rare occasion that her hair is not tied back, it hangs to around mid back at its natural length. She is trying to grow it out in respect to her Dark Maiden.
Body Type: From the moment she could walk, Koh was trained by the blade. Despite it being many years since she has fought hand-the-hand, the fundation of her teachings remain. While she may look slight in frame, she is deceptively strong. Most of her strength comes for her legs and core.
Distinguishing Features: Most obvious and notable when first seeing Koh are the elegant deep blue tattoo she wears proudly on her face. Some of the Lolth sworn drow bare the white marks as a sign of their devotion to the Spider Queen. Koh, in her defiance, has done the same but for her new goddess, Eilistraee.

+ History
✧Underdark✧
Born to a lesser noble house who had long since fallen out of favor of the Spider Queen, life started out hard. Usually in drow traditions a twin birth was celebrated. Was a sign of fertility and power for the Mother Matron. A good omen her house sorely needed. However, no feast was held that night. Once Kolnatha entered the world, her younger brother, Rhyle, followed shortly after. A male. Inferior blood. Blood which she shared with him. It would forever be a dark mark that Koh would carry for the rest of her life. Despite all judgmental stares and foul rumors that circulated about her, Kolnatha was very close to her brother as they grew up. She's heard all the stories about how males paled in comparison to their female counterparts. It was not a sentiment she shared. Rhyle and her were one, equal. Birthed from the same womb. They were connected, a bond so deep that only other twins could understand.
From the moment either of them could walk, they were trained by the blade. Life as a drow living in the Underdark was cruel by most standards of the land above. Most kids her age all they had to worry about were scraped knees and runny noses. Koh went to bed with bruised all over her body and callused hands. One had to learn how to fight and fend for yourself or it could mean death down in the dark. Not just from the vile creatures that called this place their home, but from other rival drow as well. This constant dance for power was one Koh had to learn, though she lacked the tenacity typical of her kin. There had always been a tenderness to her, in the way she spoke and how she held herself. Love and compassion are seen as weakness amongst her people and had no place in the pursuit of ambitions. Again, they blamed the impurity of her birth for these flaws. Her brother was a bad influence on her. No matter how they tried to separate them, they would always find each other, drawn like a magnet. Rhyle was her world, the one thing that kept her grounded. No matter what happened, they would have each other to lean on. That was until they both started to show tendency to wield magic. Her talent wasn't fully nurtured but Rhyle had a gift. It had caught the attention of another matron and a deal was struck.
Awoken one night drenched in sweat, Koh felt something was wrong. Running to where her brother was kept, she found the room empty. He had been sold to an unnamed matron to an unknown place beyond her reach. It was like a part of her soul was torn from her that night. Their separation was all a part of her matron's devious plan to slice out Kolnatha's perceived weakness as well as gaining more politician power in the sale. Though her plan only half worked. Since the day her brother was taken from her, Koh's resolve hardened. They would not break her. Not with her brother out there lost somewhere. After countless years of trying to reforge her into the blade they wanted to smith, it become clear that no matter how much they hammer her, she was unyielding. So, her Mother Matron devised a plan. To send Koh out on a solo mission in which the stakes were high. A suicide mission. If she refused, her House would kill her or even worse… turn her into a drider. Either way, Koh’s hands were tied. Choosing to flee the Underdark was the toughest decision she had to make. With all its danger, it was her home. And the thought of leaving her brother tore her heart to shreds.
✧Life on the Surface✧ Facing the perils of the Underdark alone took every once of her strength and cunning to survive. By the time she clawed her way out of the dark, it was nightfall on the land above. Koh found herself in a dense wooded forest and she thought she heard…. Singing? As a child she had been told horror stories about never following songs at night. But exhausted, if it meant finding help, she would take that risk. Stumbling through the brush Koh found herself in a moonlit glad where the most beautiful drow maiden she had ever seen was dancing naked in the pale light. It was the goddess Eilistraee and from there, she took the lost drow in. For the next few years, Koh would learn to adjust to life on the surface living that the temple. Surrounded by others like her, a new purpose blossomed within her. Before living under the cruel will of the Spider Queen, Koh would not have been one of faith. However, as she learned of the Dark Maiden's teachings something in her stirred. From there, the rest is history. For several years Koh called the monastery her home, learning about the Surface and her new faith. Finding a new purpose under her devotion to Eilistraee, Koh eventually sets off to wander the lands of Faerun in search of leads to find her brother, and to help those in need along the way. Which then leads us to her getting kidnapped by the nautiloid, thrusting her into the events of Baldur’s Gate 3.

Contact: DMs to my journal is fine. Only give out other means of contact to people I trust.

Writing: Usually when writing for PSLs I prefer to use prose. However I will match my rp partner.
Tagging Speed: Mid to slow. With how my work is during the week, I may not be able to tag much unless they are small. Weekends are usually my most active days.
Backtagging: I will always backtag until you're sick of me. If I don't reply for a while and want me to continue, poke me. Real life might have eaten me.
Thread-hopping: Usually fine as long everyone is on board and has been talked about.
Shipping/Smut: I am always game for developing relationships with other characters. In regards to more explicit content, most likely I will be fine with it unless its just pure smut for smut sake. I like to build up to it if both parties are good with it.

Physical Contact: Koh is fine with platonic physical touch. She might even initiate some herself with her party members.
Flirting: Flirt away, though her reactions may vary. She is not the slickest when it comes to the flirting department.
Kissing: Kissing is also okay. Though Koh isn't very cavalier with her love life and she would only kiss others that she has romantic feelings for.
Combat: Koh is always combat ready. While she may not be the damage dealer, she supports her party with her healing magic. Though she can be a bruiser and is not afraid to tank the front lines.
Mind-control/Magic: With Koh's condition with the mind-flayer tadpole, mindreading might be an accidental thing. If you go poking around in her head, she will know and depending on who you are, might not be welcomed.
