About
For all her journeying along Tamriel's dusty roads, the blind bard hardly shows it. She is traveled but not threadbare, cultivated but not callous, and polished without being prudish.
Having long been a bard, Amara is classically trained in Altmer music. The woman is well versed in many instruments, but prefers stringed instruments such as the lute, lyre, and fiddle.
A large cat, Mister Winks, somewhere between a snow leopard and house cat is her constant guide and companion.
Background
Born in the beautiful countryside of Summerset, Amara was the love child of a Redguard slave servant and a widowed Altmer lady. Raised in the privacy of a country home so as to avoid the scathing disapproval of the native Mer, Amara was raised properly, and inherited her mother's voice as well as love for music.
The unfortunate circumstances that brought her to the mainland and left Amara blind had a silver lining in the Alfiq, Za'dir. After being saved by the young woman, the Khajiit, a gifted sorcerer in his own right, vowed to spend the rest of his life with Amara as companion and protector. It was his idea to conceal his identity, and as far as anyone else knows, the mischievous feline that snoozes on Amara's lap is the attentive kitty 'Mister Winks'.
RP Hooks
~ Amara is never seen without her blindfold. As open as she can be on most matters, it seems only Mister Winks knows how she arrived on the mainland all those years ago and what happened to the woman's eyes.
