Player: Desdemona
Appearance: Though Lazari is half d'Angeline and Shahrizai, her Aragonian roots show far more in her appearance. She has dark brown hair and hazel eyes. Her eyes are a little lighter than that of most Aragonian's. Her d'Angeline roots show mostly in her high cheek bones and willowy figure. She is also taller than most fullblooded Aragonian women, but fits in with the d'Angelines at 5'10". She looks elegant and innocent, but is none of the last.
Personality: Lazari is in her blood Shahrizai through and through. Even though she grew up in the more conservative Aragonia, Lazari fully embraces the passion that d'Aneglines are known for. She loves wielding power and has a strong preference for sharper pleasures. She is a very driven woman, but one who understands that wars are not won with a single battle. She picks her enemies and friends carefully, not always letting people know which she sees them as.

History: Lazari was born to Thiago Aria de Perez and Rubi Shahrizai. Rubi's family traveled to Aragonia on a regular basis to visit the Shahrizai family that stemmed from the ill-famed Marmion Shahrizai. Her distant relatives felt that he was treated unfairly and when they learned of his whereabouts and family they made a point to regain contact with that branch. They families became close friends. It would only be a matter of time before one of them fell in love with an Aragonian during all of those visits, though it took a couple of generations before it came to be. During one visit Rubi was fairly swept off her feet by an Aragonian man named Thiago. He had grown up fascinated by the Shahrizai branch that was living in the city and fell completely in love the first time he set eyes on Rubi.
The two where young when they fell in love, merely 16 and 17 years of age. Their families made them hold out for a few years before either side would consider talk of marriage. When it was obvious that the couple's love was not going to wain they were married and Rubi moved to Aragonia to be with her husband. Since the elite families of Aragonia were already accustomed to seeing members of the Shahrizai mixed in with their own there was little difficulty in Rubi joining the ranks.
The couple was truly in love and they showed it with the five children that they put forth into the world. Their children showed a wide variety of their mixed heritages. Of the five their middle daughter seemed to have the most Shahrizai blood. Though she had a brother with more of the look, pale skin and the famed hair, Lazari truly had the blood. She was born feisty and kept her parents well on their toes as she grew up. She was also charming and was able to weasel her way out of most trouble. As she aged her feistyness and charm developed and grew. By the time she was of an age to marry she had her pick of suitors.
Though Lazari could have chosen a powerful husband of high standing, she instead choose to follow her parents footsteps and truly marry for love. One day while attending one of the Aragonian festivals Lazari meet the son of a small lord. The man blushed and eyed his shoes while stealing glances at Lazari. She approached him and flirted with him. Their chemistry was undeniable. They seemed to be made for each other. Lazari wanted to gain the power that came with both her Aragonian and d'Angeline heritage and Luis had no taste for it. He simply wanted to love someone and be loved. They were a match in the bedroom as well. Lazari loved control and Luis loved to give it. He even found love in the sharp pain that Lazari loved to give. The couple was wed after a short courtship and moved in with Lazari's family.
The couple had a fairly good life in the Shahrizai family home, but Lazari found it dull after some time. She was not due to inherit in Aragonia and her mother had siblings aplenty to take care of lands in Kusheth. Lazari also liked to follow all of her passions. Though she had the blessings of her husband Luis, some of the Aragonian aristocracy whispered. Lazari also inherited the d'Angeline ability to deny childbirth until she prayed to Eisheth. She and Luis wanted to wait, which also caused more whispers as the years passed and no children came forth.
When Lazari was 23 word came that a uncle which had a small viscounty was growing ill. He had a son, but his son had chosen to become a priest instead of a Viscount. Lazari's two older brothers were well entrenched in Aragnoian politics so the choice to move to Kusheth and assist the ailing Viscount fell to Luis and Lazari. Lazari jumped on the opportunity and the couple moved to Kusheth. Lazari learned the estates and assisted her uncle until he healed. She had proven a smart and willing acolyte so she and her husband were allowed to stay on as retainers and more or less adopted children.
Lazari's uncle's estates is one of many under the Shahrzai Dutchy owned by Revenna Shahrizai's father. Through the years Lazari's family did make occasional vacations to Kusheth to see the Shahrizai family. When Lazari was a young child she looked up to the older Revenna. Even as a young teen she seemed to have a future with power. Now, as an adult Lazari's admiration has turned into respect, which she always amkes sure to show Revenna when the two are attending the same event.
Lazari's uncle wants the couple to learn d'Angeline politics so the pair of them are in the City of Eula playing in the games of politics until Luis and Lazari are needed again to assist with the small viscounty.
