Short Halfling that has survived, mostly, for this long. Going through multiple deaths of loved ones, she just wants to keep the Virtuous VII alive and safe through their journeys on the continent of Nov'Tera.
Rinea has never known her place or purpose in the world. She thought it would be with her tribe, however, they were massacred by Gnolls, and only she survived. She thought it would be with her dear friend, Turein, but wanderlust and discovery took her away from him often. She thought it would be assisting her friends and the Imperial Army through the Kyligtera Civil War, but almost all her friends were slaughtered by Orcs. And now Rinea has come to join the Virtuous VII with all their mishaps. And she thinks that she has found the place where she is needed most. Here with the Virtuous VII, Rinea has a true purpose, which is to keep this group alive, for she could not handle the loss of more loved ones.

Personal history
Born to Riace and Aster Rye, members of the nomadic, Rye Halfling tribe. She is the older sister of Allya and Gemma, twin girls that never saw the age of two for the ambush of Gnolls descended upon them and the rest of the tribe. Only due to her small size was Rinea able to hide in an alcove in order to survive the assault. Listening to the ravaging of her family caused Rinea to isolate herself for several years in the mountains of Kyligtera. It was only after she survived a bear attack that she returned to civilization. Traveling to a town by the name of Norrest, Rinea met a dwarven male named Turein Roche, owner of The Stone Forge. It was there that Rinea rehabilitated, and was able to eventually recover her sense of wanderlust, as she once had when with her tribe. Now more cautious of the world, but still wanting to explore it, Rinea decided to become a guide and tracker for those that needed her services. Through her journeys she made a long-lasting friend, an Elf named Roman Yaeldrin, who later convinced her to help him and the Empire in the Civil War in the North. There she became part of a group to scout and devise safe routes for the Imperial Army. However, like her tribe, her group was ambushed and all but her and two others fell to the enemy. Rinea left the army soon after, tired and traumatized, and began guiding people around the Empire again. It was while doing this work that she met the Virtuous VII.
Education
Taught to read by educators within her tribe. Learned how to read the stars, landscapes, and maps of the land through her father, Riace, and through firsthand experience of being a part of a nomadic tribe. Survival instincts are mostly self-taught, but the basics were learned through her mother, Aster, and her father. Turein Roche taught her how to handle money.
Employment
Guide and tracker for individuals and groups, including the Thorellian Empire. When staying for long periods of time in Norrest, she assists in some of the work that occurs at The Stone Forge. She is now a member of the Virtuous VII, and a co-founder of The Dragon's Den that is run by the Virtuous VII and their staff.
