Name: Karana
Race: Aruul/Bhamind half-breed
Age: 627
Gender: Female
History: At the age of seven, Karana was found to be a Mad Artisan, a natural crafter of objects that could make objects of art that could shatter the minds of those who saw them. Since then, she has lived much of her life, making such objects. She is responsible for the crafting of thirty-seven Artisan Weapons, and she is the only Artisan allowed to do so, as the weapons are too dangerous to allow for mass-production. In addition, she aided in the design of the hull and living quarters of the newest class of Imperial dreadnought, the Asper Class. Her recent transfer to the Myciel System is merely the latest in a set of emergency postings to keep her just ahead of the bloodthirsty mobs that want her head.
Personality: At first glance, she merely seems distracted, uninterested in the world around her, but she is rarely as unfocused as she seems. When crafting objects, whether it is the making of a dress or the design of a warship's hull, she is constantly focused on the landscape within her own soul. She doesn't really consider others to be people, and in human terms she would be considered to be a borderline sociopath.
Abilities: As a Mad Artisan, she can craft artifacts from normal materials in such a way that they are far more effective than the sum of their parts or even the simple facts of the design could account for. Her artist's sense also applies to her pursuit of martial arts, where she has created her own beautifully homicidal dance of blades.
