Rahab de le Poer is a hybrid raised alongside two sisters, Sumaria de le Poer and Persis de le Poer in Windward Isle. Her parents are Agrippa de le Poer, former scout of Inferni, and Mara Savoy, a one-time Baroness of Cour des Miracles.

Though born in the Virgin Islands, much of Rahab’s youth was spent aboard ships due to her mother's insistence that the family relocate; this was due largely in part to a small blood feud that broke out between the Savoy family and the Bourgeois family — a larger but less wealthy group originating on the island — as a result of Constantine's philandering. They eventually settled on a small island in the Antilles and were subsequently free to roam much of the area.

Quite close to both of her mothers and her uncle, she nonetheless didn’t spend as much time with Mara as she would have liked, as the woman was busy reestablishing her trade connections and starting a ferry system to connect the Antilles islands.

Following the departure of her elder siblings for Nova Scotia, Ray and her sisters decided it was time that they, too, should strike out on their own. Wanting to see a bit of the world before committing to anything concrete, the girls enlisted their 'uncle', Constantine, to their cause, and with his assistance they set sail during their first summer, bound for Pointe-Noire.

What followed ended up changing the course of Rahab's life moreso than her sisters; recruited in Cairo by a mysterious woman after having seen the siblings fight, they joined her on a quest to take down slavetraders and, upon realizing they were connected to her ancestral homeland, accompanied the woman to Onuba where Tiamat beheaded her betrothed in front of a city square full of onlookers. Rescued by Mara, they subsequently traveled by ship to Portland where they spent many months repairing her mother's storm-wrecked ship.

With a disastrous trip to Erie being the exception, Rahab has spent the better part of two years in and around Portland, mired there by her loyalty to her newfound family.

She is currently a loner.

1.  Characteristics

1.1  Appearance

Physical Description
  • General:
An even split between species (coyote, wolf, and dog), one would be hard pressed to determine what, exactly, Rahab is. Her face features sharper lines courtesy of her coyote heritage, and her legs are slightly long, pointing to a dilution of dog blood. Her fur is short-to-medium in length, her ruff is thicker than that of a dog or coyote’s; double-coated. Ray keeps herself as clean as possible.
  • Optime Hair: Shoulder length but thick. Rahab sometimes wears it pulled back from her face, but typically only during instances where she expects violence.
  • Humanization and Facial Features:
Moderate; will wear clothing and jewelry but is comfortable without it. During her travels she became accustomed to sleeping outdoors, though this is often done in her Optime form. Accustomed to using tools and weapons.
  • Build, Size, and Forms:
Sports a typical swimmers build in all forms — notably, she is slightly thicker through the shoulders than anywhere else, but lean almost everywhere else.

Forms:

  • Lupus: 40 lbs (18.1 kg) ↔ 25 in (63 cm)
  • Secui: 140 lbs (63.5 kg) ↔ 39 in (99 cm)
  • Optime: 180 lbs (81.6 kg) ↔ 5ft 10in (70 in) (177cm)

  • Scent: The ocean, horses de le Poer, Savoy.

1.3  Personality

Overview

Rahab is an exuberant woman, and applies her boundless passion to every aspect of her life; spontaneous and a little reckless, she is driven by curiosity and is often humorous and contemptuous in the same breath. Intrepid and daring, she is nonetheless very accepting of others’ perceived flaws, and therefore quite easy to get along with in most situations. Occasionally unreliable, Ray will not necessarily break a promise, but lives to defy others’ expectations of her.

Of the three girls, Rahab is almost always the one willing to instigate mayhem on a moment's notice; the more brazen or outlandish something sounds or seems, the more she'll like the sound of it.

Possesses an abundance of lazy, roguish charm, which she employs at will whenever she feels it will benefit her.

Traits

Interests

  • Likes: Arguing, combat, flirting, horses, reading, social situations.
  • Dislikes: Cowardice, false bravado, slavers, vilification.
Sexuality

Bisexual with no notable preference; as opposed to singling someone out based on their appearance (ie. a masculine man or a feminine woman), Rahab is drawn to personalities, whether they be broodingly intense or wildly carefree. Driven by hedonism more than anything else.

  • Though a self-proclaimed flirt, much of her so-called promiscuous behavior is driven by her enormous sexual appetite; she values monogamy and secretly craves it but is afraid of long-term commitment.
  • Despite presenting herself as an air-headed, promiscuous flirt—which is oftentimes a way to amuse herself or escape boredom—one would be wise to consider that what Rahab says does not necessarily reflect what she does; spurred, perhaps, by her mother’s stories and her elder sister’s wild beauty, she is intent on building a reputation for herself, regardless of the form the narrative takes.

Vices

  • Drinks sparingly, but isn't choosy—beer and wine are looked on with the same amount of favor.
  • Historically used both opium and cannabis, but gave up the former after she left the desert and grew out of the latter.

Spirituality

Monotheistic belief in the Abrahamic God.

  • Believes that even with atonement one may not find redemption or, depending on the sin, forgiveness.
  • Religious when it suits her.
    • Exposed to mudras in Cairo, often considered a spiritual or divine form of yoga using hand positions; each finger represents the energy of a planet, a determinate quality, and emotions. The thumbs represents the ego. Rahab utilizes these as a step toward self-awareness and as a calming mechanism.

She previously showed a great deal of interest in Islam and has a copy of the Quran, which she appears to read for pleasure, and is generally respectful of other religions and their adherents.
