Once one of Y’Matara’s greatest illusionists and con artists, Zeyra has since faded into the background, choosing to mentor those who impress her. She took a liking to Tavo, seeing in him a spark of brilliance and recklessness reminiscent of her younger days. She offers advice in riddles, never gives more help than necessary, and delights in watching her protégé struggle and learn.
Physical Description
A wiry elven woman with sun-kissed skin, silver-streaked hair tied in a loose braid, and a smirk that never quite fades. She wears layers of worn desert silks, always carrying a pack of playing cards and a dagger hidden in the folds of her robes.
Wants and Needs
Zeyra cares about legacy. She trains Tavo not out of kindness, but because she wants her tricks and lessons to live on. She believes a good con artist should never stop evolving, and she hopes Tavo will outgrow her one day.
Secret or Obstacle
Zeyra once conned a noble so thoroughly that they swore eternal revenge. She doesn’t know when they will strike, but she knows they will.
Carrying
A deck of enchanted cards, a vial of desert rose perfume, a set of weighted dice, and a tiny silver fox charm with no apparent magic—yet she always rubs it before taking a gamble.
