Rakastaja Mepris (she/her) is a character played by Keiran (she/they/any) in the fiction birthday one-shot ran for Keiran, The Cloudwhistle Celebration. She is a half-orc oath of devotion paladin and a folk hero.
Description
Raka is 6'7, with grey skin, wavy black hair that she keeps in a loose ponytail. She's often seen wearing her armor, having just come from whatever mission Pomp has sent her on. She has brilliant green eyes, and tusks protruding from her lower lip. She is very buff, and, of course, gorgeous.
Raka is currently in a little bit of a mid-life crisis and it shows. She is impulsive, a little bit vengeful, and so incredibly in love with the idea of love and beauty. She's a little vindictive, especially when it comes to her "ex" husband, but she still loves him, which is all the more irritating.
Backstory
Raka grew up in a small town, started aspiring for love and worshipping beauty when she was in her teens. She started adventuring as a hobby, always on the search for the next beautiful thing she could have in her possession. She met Apollo during those times. Then she met Pomp when she was hired on for a job he needed done. Eventually, they got married, and they spent a good deal of time with Ethel Cloudwhistle, Dottie, and later on, Bolder Fyst. Throughout this time, she also spent a good deal of time with Meg through the Cloudwhistles. Throughout this time, her husband eventually started up a relationship with his secretary/patron Andromeda, and Raka found out, so she initiated a divorce (although it's later found out that Andromeda never completely filed the paperwork). After that, still under contract with Pomp for adventuring gigs, she has been sent out on dangerous mission after dangerous mission, and also found herself waffling between loving Andromeda and using Andromeda to strip Pomp of his power as a warlock.
Trivia
