Nazê Alzahim
 | Uktena Theurge |
Overview
Naze is a bit of an enigma, sometimes occasionally considered more spirit then Garou, with her obvious spirit heritage and companion, but her command of various rites and understanding of diverse magics is not to be underestimated.
A former Uktena Scout who has traveled and researched extensively to help unravel her own mysteries, she's settled down only to find herself a rites leader and consultant on various powers and magic for her sept.
While she looks young, one gets the sense there are metaphorical decades behind her eyes.
Appearance
A young woman of middle eastern descent and no obvious breeding, She has a slight build with a flat chest, and an olive complexion. Her hair is black with occasional sun-bleached blonde strands to past her shoulder blades and typically worn in a loose or in twin-tails. Her eyes are an unusual light hazel color. She appears younger than her years, a late bloomer and still obviously coming fully into womanhood.
Naze dresses in modest fashion mostly with a focus on layers when needed: Colorful or patterned shirts/ blouses with jeans/good leggings and good boots. Favors long-coats in the winter and is almost never seen without her keffiyeh.
In Lupus she has the hallmark appearance of an Indian wolf. In Crinos, she cuts a lithe figure with long dexterous digits.
Tribe & Auspice
Tribe: Uktena
Auspice: Theurge
Naze has traveled the world from an early teen and earned many accolades both among the Uktena as a former Scout and the Silent Striders a road companion. Traveling around the Middle East, the Med and the Levant, and Western United States, she has learned and inferred much about various cultures, rites, and their practices of the arcane from both friends and enemies alike.
Role
As a Rites Mistress, Naze serves to be:
- A spiritual bedrock of her sept and its rhythms
- A reference for diverse magics and arcane knowledge
- A keeper of moonpaths and a potential line to the Lunar realm
Personality
- Curious: If something catches her interest it will be a minor obsession for a period.
- Unothodox: Not hidebound by tradition in either general demeanor or in application of rite.
- Believes knowledge is not merely to be kept but employed if required regardless of potential origin.
Generally Perceptive, curious and inclined to listen and absorb before speaking; Naze is a young person with an old soul. Despite having been though much since her first shift she is generally happy to lend a hand and help teach any lesser ranked Garou who come to her humbly to seek wisdom or knowledge.
She brooks no disrespect nor hypocrites however, and has the sharp tongue of a Ragabash when pushed. Her anger and rage has been described as cold and sharp, like moonlight.
Soft-Touch
Her subtle machinations once rendered an entire drilling operation in the middle east to ruin.
Serpent's Tongue
She was once spoke for Inadu, the Secret Keeper, relaying with a forked tongue. Both compelling and with hidden venom.
All Seeing Unseen
She see's much, including the hidden. But she is unable to be herself discerned in the same scryglass.
Daughter of Many
Daughter of men, daughter of gaia, child of the winged serpent, child of the moon. She is one and she is many.
"At the end of the day a rite is usually just about converting some form of energy into an effect.
The main energy typically used though? Simple belief."
