Character Name: Mallika al-Nisa Khan
Age: 18
Birthday: 10th July
Height: 5’8”
Rank/Title: Bhodistani Princess
Race: Bhodistani
Townhome Request: Bhodistan Embassy - North Borough
Appearance: Mallika is very tall for a woman, and stands at 5'9", taller if her shoes have a heel to them. Her skin is the colour of deep caramel, her eyes dark pools and large. Her lips are full, and usually red with rouge. Her hair is glossy and black, long as it hangs to her lower back, and straight unless she adds a curl to it.
Personality: Mallika is not shy, and she is definitely not shy in sharing her opinion on matters that she knows about. She has been indulged in this by her Father, while her Mother and Sisters are a little more discreet. She has never been good at what is seen as ‘womanly’ skills, and prefers many of those that are considered to be for men only.
Marital Status: Single
Known Languages: Bhodistani (speak, read & write) Ch’in (speak, read and write) Cruithne (read) d’Angeline (speak, read and write)
Strengths and Weaknesses: Mallika is strong willed and bold, but that also comes with an element of stubbornness that she is not good at overcoming. Once her mind is set, little can keep her from what she wants, and it has led to many arguments with her Mother and Sisters as she grew up. It can put people off her before they get to know the real Mallika.

History:
Mallika was born the third daughter to Shahjahan and Zinat, in the glorious city of Varanasi, in the Kshatriyas caste of her people. She was born into privilege and wealth, having everything she could ever want, and yet it was not enough. Her Uncle was the Maharaja (on her Fathers side) and as such nothing was really held from here. She had servants, tutors, she could be shown anything she wished, and what she wished to learn and see the world. It was not the typical attitude for a woman in the palace to have, but as she was the youngest of his nieces, she indulged in her whims.
When she was in her early teens, her Father was sent to Terre d’Ange, as an ambassador, though he did not take his wife and children, as he was hoping to have his daughters all married and to have some men in the family. With her Father gone and her Uncle willing to give in to her big brown eyes, Mallika had her pick of topics to learn and she did so at an alarming rate. One of them was the Mudras, a mysticism to gain their god’s attention; those of the Tridev and the Goddesses.
She point blank refused two offers of marriage, and nothing her Mother could say would change her mind. Her Mother, at her wits end, decided that Mallika should go to Terre d’Ange to join her Father, and let him try to deal with her. She was put on a boat, had some land travel, and was by ship once again until she landed in Eisandean, where her Father had come to meet her.
From there, she was whisked away to the City of Elua, to the Embassy where her Father lived, and to the waiting court.
