Esi Djana
Well, now that you mention it, I've been single for a while. Which is weird. What's up with that?
Esi Djana is a current attendant at the Magaambya Academy, in charge of the Spire Dormitory's day-today affairs.
Description
Appearance
Esi is a Zenj human, who is lithe and short (for her heritage), always standing with perfect posture. Her skin is a rich, warm auburn, wrists and throat often adorned with simple beaded jewelry colored to match her thoughtful brown eyes. While her clothes are always meticulously donned, and her makeup perfect, her short-cut, dark hair and its rowdy curls seem to defy the order in her appearance. A duskwood mask of an elephant marking her as an attendant sits on her hip, just below her magic item component pouch (which bears the sigil of the Tempest-Sun Mages).
Personality
Esi is never caught without a smile. Even while doling out dish-duty or correcting her peer's somatic stance with a firm nudge, she always upholds a standard of pleasantry. She is curious, and analytical, never failing to jot down new information on her fellow members, or new discoveries. She tends to fret on making sure events go according to plan.
She tends to blame herself for mistakes or errors that occur, such as when the attack occurred during the ceremony at the end of the Perquisite, feeling as a failure for her branch.
Background
Current Campaign
S:02 "The Only Part Of You That Burns in Hell is the Part That Won't Let Go"
As the party arrives at the Spire Dormitory after the Welcome Walk, Esi introduces herself to the party as the attendant that will be in charge of the day-to-day activities. She offers Spidersilk Umbrellas to each member as they walk in. Adira makes a remark that the umbrellas would've been useful earlier, which Esi takes as a comment on her mistake, quickly excusing herself as she had duties to attend to and couldn't help earlier. Eshe comments on how Esi appears to be a learned individual, which she felt was a slight towards her. She explains the daily happenings in the Spire Dormitory.
Later on, Esi returns to explain that Chizire was suppose to graduate by now, but comments that it may been inaction that has led him to stay for longer. She also explains that the slight she felt earlier was just due to stress over the new students. Nymeria and Esi are in a stand-off of "Not wanting to ask too many questions" which leads to a few questions answered. We learn that Esi has been in the academy for 2 years. They both agree with each other to ask 17 Questions, for the next time they connect.
As they go over to eat dinner, in a nervous fret, comments on how she's still single, despite not knowing why. Not happy.
S:03 "Leap Into Hell and Kill the Devil Himself"
During dinner, Esi and Mariama explain the Tempest-Sun Mages to the group, and how they act as the defenders of the Magaambya, all across the world.
The next day, Esi provides instructions to the party that we will be continuing the Perquisite with Haibram to assist in gathering some chickens.
Later, once successfully completing Haibram's tasks, Esi introduce us to another task that would serve the Perquisite a day earlier, breaking protocol. She introduces us to a problem at the storage facility: the party must deal with Pugwampis that are making a mess within the food storage. She states that we must deal with them in a peaceful manner.
After dealing with the Pugwampis in a peaceful manner (by introducing them to Anchor Root and taking advantage of their Kholo worship) Esi deems this a success. This allowed the group a free day the following day, in which many of the party members took their time to connect with several of the initiates and attendants.
S:06 "Aggravated As-Salt"
Esi joins Okoro on one of the final Perquisite tasks of the party in telling their own personal stories. After finishing the session, Esi provides a bead to Orvin and Rubina. Adira teased Esi for not providing one for her.
As they walk towards the Induction Ceremony, they discover Mariama on the floor, in a pool of blood. Esi joins the Anteater Cohort in battle, killing one of the slugs in a blast of electricity.
They manage to save Mariana, kill the gremlin, and capture the pugwampi, Kurshkin.
S:07 "He Tampered in God's Domain"
Esi was distraught, expressing dissatisfaction with letting one individual into the Magaambya, and felt that their guard was let down by her own fault due to the earlier Pugwampi exercise earlier.
Orvin later on spoke to Esi, asking her to see if she's feeling, and reassure hers.
