Physical Description
Li is a rather slight young woman, with a distinctly willowy build that would lead one to believe she may be an artisan or a dancer, not necessarily an animal handler. She has long, sleek black hair that she usually keeps out of her face with two hastily twisted buns while the rest spills down her back.

Her eyes are what typically draw attention, no matter how much she might want to avoid it. They are a bright crimson that almost seems to glow in low lighting, and rather large in her face for a woman of Thanati heritage.

Personality
Often the “yang” to her brother’s “yin”, Li is a quiet, contemplative young woman with a observational attitude towards life. She often wears a sort of considering expression-- which is exactly what she’s doing, considering. Watching, listening, learning, debating all the pros and cons of a situation before she makes any sort of decision.

Understandably, she can be more than a little wary of strangers, to the point of standoffishness. But to those who know her, she is perfectly friendly, and often a supportive companion. She’d much rather listen to others’ woes than think about her own, so she is a perfect shoulder to cry on.

Magic/Abilities
Li has a strong beastspeaking ability, but no other magical talent to speak of.

She's also passably useful with a blade, if she has to be, though she prefers to avoid weaponry.

Relationships
Her twin brother, Sun, is her closest relationship.

[close]

She also has a strong bond with the many animals of the circus, and considers them her extended family. The people she's a little wary of, but she's slowly learning to trust.

History
From the moment she was born, Li’s eyes got her labeled as “dangerous”, “possessed”, and “demon spawn” in Thanatos-- her beastspeaking ability, when it became clear at the age of four, was just the icing on the cake.

Her parents were...not good about the whole thing. They didn't outright try to kill their daughter, but if you ask her twin Sun they did just about everything else.

In an effort to protect her from their parents and the world in general, Sun decided they’d set out on their own...and they wound up at the circus
