Description: Her figure is crafted of lean muscle and smooth tan skin, though her curves are perfectly proportionate and very feminine. Thick flowing raven hair hangs down past her shoulders. Her face is softly rounded with perfectly manicured dark brows, full lips usually painted a pink hue and stunning brown eyes with flecks of gold that seem to look through things when she peers at them. Her accent is strong, and the soft jingle of bells follows her from the bells she wears in her ears. When she walks she turns heads and she knows it, a flick of her hair, a wink or a flutter of her lashes is given to every admirer. Her words are like silk to the ears and that smile when turned up seems to brighten even the darkest night.

Personality: Before Brand, Venuste was overly cheerful and always with a song on her lips, after that part of her was destroyed she has been working to slowly recover from the devastation and as such, sometimes she can seem distant and cold, though that is never her intention. She genuinely cares about her people, and her loyalty is unquestioned. She is beautiful, and that is accentuated by the graceful way she moves. She can be emotional, and under the right pressures may speak her mind freely no matter what audience is around. For all her care, and all her positivity she holds the same cunning and swiftness that all Rivenshari do when crossed.

Background: The Rajah was a family that had been trusted by the chiefs for many generations, though it was the most recent generations that had been forced to endure the most difficult of times and the biggest strains of loyalty.

Venuste was the daughter of Lalin and Maua Rajah and was the seventh child born to the pair. Lalin was the handmaiden to Triega, wife of Chief Aegis. Venuste practically grew up with Gavier, Raqui, Athaur, Eshra, and Mattheu along with their cousin's Vano and Lavinia.

She was raised and educated as they were, playing with them, laughing with them and getting into mischief with them. She excelled at performance even from a young age and had a beauty about her that was nearly unrivaled among her people.

With her enchanting voice and her beauty, she became quite successful in manipulating those around, a skill that wasn't missed by her parents or the Chief. She was employed on many occasions to go on diplomatic affairs with the Chief and his council to other tribes as she grew, and she developed a sort of fame for her ability to sing and dance.

When she fell to Brand's influence, however, her gifts were turned against her own people and she will never forget some of the things she has done, but, she will try to make them right. It wasn't necessarily a secret, but not overly public either, she was in a relationship with Raqui, and the topic of marriage had come up, though, that topic was short-lived, for during Brand's slaughter Raqui fell.

When the dust settled Venuste was broken, shattered to the core. The former bright and shining personality had darkened, her voice no longing carrying with it that cheerful lyrical nature, even her movements darkened and with pain. She mourned Raqui, and when the others left for Arx to bend the knee, she stayed in Riva falling into her faith in the spirits to help mend the wounds of her heart and soul.

But now, it has been some time, her radiant nature slowly returning, her will to fight against the darkness inside returning. She has decided to seek out the now noble family in Arx and help their people recover, perhaps partially in memory of her fallen love.
