History
Niobe is from a very rustic village slightly hidden in the deep jungles of the Southeast where she hails from a deep-rooted bloodline of medicine women--the Okoro tribe. The Okoro tribe was renown for their ability to wondrously mix herbal concoctions and create recipes for many ailments and were sought by people from all over the world.
She was raised with a gentle hand by her mother, Najma, the tribe's head. She doesn't know much about her father since She got her love of helping others by watching her mother handle her people with unconditional love and understanding as she did Niobe. Since Navar was always busy with her own duties, Niobe was trained extensively by her mother's sister, Zaara, who specialized in making medicines. She was a bit harder on Niobe than her mother but her strict methods molded Niobe into a fine herbalist. Zaara taught her the basics of herbs--the difference in taste, smell, and texture and how they worked in relation to one another to create the type of mixture for different purposes. As the years progressed, she became exceptionally skilled in creating remedies and could tell the ingredients by the smell alone. When Niobe became older, she became one of top herbalist in her tribe (which was expected of her) and,being the eldest daughter of the Head, began being groomed to be the next leader of her people. However, she curious about life outside her clan for she has never seen anything past the village walls. She would climb the trees to see beyond her her home only to be met by the same scenery of jungle and is usual inhabitants. Niobe would often ask her mother about her travels outside the village which her mother would tell her without hesitation. Her mom would go into great detail of how the world was with it's urban technology and how it was an extraordinary experience.
One night, she had a dream of a a great black jaguar with onyx black eyes that pierced her soul. It vanished then reappeared at her side, glanced at her then focused its gaze ahead of them. She remembers not feeling fear but being filled with great warmth and anticipation of what it would show her of the future. Niobe followed the jaguar's stare to see a forked road with two of her at each end. To the left was her as a older woman with lifeless eyes and a hunched back, dressed in dulled colored attire and headdress of which the tribe head would wear, surrounded by crows perched in trees and over to the right was her as a older woman smiling, in vibrant colored clothing fit for the head of the tribe but surrounded by an array of unfamiliar faces, rays of light and hearty laughter. The black jaguar turned to her awaiting her decision. Niobe hesitated but fixed her gaze upon her smiling self, the dream faded. She arose from her slumber and ran to her mother to tell her of her dream and how she must leave. Her mother gave her a sadden smile but nods for she knew it was destined for her daughter's happiness. The morning after that night, she gathered all her necessities and the little money she had from her mother and bid farewell to her tribe, promising her return when the time came. She traveled a long and mighty journey until she came across a small town. She had high hopes for the new experiences that awaited.
:Masc.:
She has two little sisters: Nya (10) and Nava (18)
Her accent is really thick so it may be hard to understand her at times
When Niobe gets frustrated and/or too emotional, she disappears and finds a place to meditate and to think through her situation
Is a lover of music and dance (watching moreso)
Is a vegetarian because she feels that it promotes cleanliness and if you are not "clean," it'll be hard to be for one to project positive in the face her people.
Likes to sit in trees and gaze at the stars
She wakes up at the crack of dawn and meditates before starting her day
