Scarab has a rather short, thin build with creamy chocolate skin &
close-cropped blonde hair. Normal attire is a travel-worn cotton cloak, which
hides a petite orichalcum breastplate over a simple cotton tunic. A long,
weather-beaten scarf hangs around her neck, often used to conceal her face on
a heist or can be wrapped up to deflect the sand & sun in the desert. A
matching pair of black gloves, boots, and elbow/knee pads adorns her
extremities, accented with magical metals. Numerous belts also criss-cross her
waist, arms, and legs bearing shurikens & other poisonous impliments. A sharp,
thin knife hangs in a scabbard behind her back, as well as a
specially-crafted pouch for fire grenades and an easily accessible blowgun for
sniping distant foes.

-First pic is an early concept sketch of Scarab by your truly. Sadly, with no
scanner on hand here the best I could do was a low-res cell phone pic, slightly
enhanced for detail & sharpness.

-Second is an inspirational image for Scarab's anima banner (and a possible future
combo effect), taken from the CD cover art of the band Journey's "Greatest Hits"
album. Very Egyptian themed, with a Ra scarab beetle sprouting the wings of
Isis, and the two worlds of light & shadow which the Night caste shifts between.

== Prophecy from her own player! ==

Scarab will be forced to choose between two things. She cannot have both, and
either way she will lose something important.

== Comments From her Fellows ==

[[Scrollreader/5Pillars|Five Pillars]] She's very very good at what she does. I'm not sure if she can be counted on as a long term ally, but I do not doubt her, while she chooses to remain with us. She cloaks herself in mystery out of habit, I think, but given time, I believe she will be able to move past that.
