Appearance

Iolana has the classical Varisian look of dark wavy brown hair and dark colored eyes. Her long hair is usually kept in bun or a tight braid. She has two unique birthmarks on her body. On her right forearm is a hollow circle with 3 curving lines extending from it. A birthmark that closely resembles the holy symbol of Vonymos. On her left forearm is birthmark of a rune known as a Sign of the Seeker’s Spiral.

Personality

The average Iomedae zealot probably sees her as a faithless cynic. Iolana is completely against the demons and their supporters, and knows that they must be stopped. However she views the crusaders as meat grinder that sucks in people and spits out blood and gristle. The witchhunts and other displays zealot get on her nerves. She has tendecy to avoid these public displays of zealotry, so she doesn't say or do anything to upset the zealots.

Years of helping in the medical wards have left her with a brusque bedside manner. When she has a chance to let down her hair, she can be rather friendly person.

Background:

Iolana never knew her birth parents. She knows that parents joined a crusader caravan out of Ustalav, and both disappeared on mission about month after she was born. Marta Variu was a healer and midwife that was also a member of this crusader caravan. She had delivered Iolana. When she learned about the fate of Iolana's parents, Marta adopted her. Marta would be her mother.

Healers were always needed in Kenabres. From an early age, Iolana was trained to assist her mother in the treatment of others. Soon her interests went beyond just treatment of physical aliments. Due to her odd birthmark, Marta had taught Iolana a little bit about Vonymos. When Iolana went looking at the deities and their faiths, Vonymos was never far from her mind.

Many of Iomedae's followers and teachers struck her as too self-righteous. Gorum's teaching were too bloodthirsty for her. Among the crusaders, she found a small group worshippers of Vonymos. His focus upon the martyred, and the victims of disasters seemed like a good fit for a girl that lost her parents and had to deal daily with the death and suffering inflicted upon everyone in this never ending war. She decided to became a priestess so she fight and heal For the next several years, she would learn the ways of her deity. She would do everything from learning to use the scythe in battle to using healing magic.

When she had the chance, she would research the birthmark on her left arm. It looked too much like a rune to be an accident. During her research, she learned that mark can appear on the child of riftwarden when the parents are exposed to bizarre planar energies. She still doesn't understand what this means. It just made a mystery more mysterious.

Now that she has become a priestess, she is willing to aid in the struggle against the demons.
