Beginnings
Born into a lineage of royalty Kara has enjoyed a comfortable, yet demanding lifestyle. From day one she has been expected to not only succeed but to over achieve. Over the years she has become a master of a variety of talents and skills, with most the most notable being: politics (foregin and domestic), elemental shamanism, shield and sword mastery, armorsmithing, and uncanny intellectual savy.
Poltics
Even as a child, Kara has been looked upon as a leader of her people, even though she was (and is still) but the heiress. Devoting time and resource, she frequently visited lesser towns of Marilia, trying to understand not only the people but the diverse sub-cultures that she will rule in time. Though all wood elves have many aspects in commonality, such as the love of the mother earth, delicate tasting wines and berries, socialize, and many other numerous things, each village and region of the nation has it's own divided subculture. Each of which must be kept checked and under control, as Kara would find out while visiting the southeastern most villages of nation. While visiting a village the elders quarried her to an elder's hut, telling of the numerous bandits ravaing the merchant lines, cleverly just beyond the nations possessive lines, which has left them on the fringe of survivability. Knowing she was heavily out numbered, she returned to the capitol, with the promise to send aid. There Kara luered the nobles of the kingdom to a lavish feast with the prospects to entice them to fortify not only what is within Marilia, but also too all that does belong to Marilia as well. Though her plea was most notably forgotton and tossed as side, she continued to persue their aid, even if it was to be in vein. In turn, she confronted each individual questioning why they would refuse to aid others in their time of need recieving but the simple replies: "for they are not one of us."
Distraught by such claims, knowing that such petty indifferences and disputes between individuals should not undermine the nation it's self, she personally ordered the errection of fifteen stone towers and appendixing barracks all across the other rims of the national possesive boarder. Soon the bandits would become things of the past as the towers would succesfully slay each one at the edge of a sword or the point of a bow.The people of the region, and the kingdom itself, from which she serves were served righteously well. After realizing that Kara was gaining more popularity from the people than in they themselves in their own regions, the nobles asked why she had errected such things they recieved but the simple reply: "for you are all one of us."
