.:Birthplace:Segontium.

.:Family:
Mother: Alesia Frost: White hair and icy blue eyes with a slim build only standing 5'. Archer by trade Alesia was in her teens when she married Sador. She was in her mid forties when she was taken from from Kazira and when Aeron went missing.
Father: Sador Frost: Forest green eyes dark brown hair standing around 6'2". A thief in his younger years Sador made himself a name when he teamed up with Alesia as being a fantastic sword for hire. He didn't have the best personality. Brash and loud compared to his wife's quiet and reserved attitude. He was a firm believer that none of his progeny were going to depend on anyone to survive. He threw his daughter to the wild when they were old enough and had them hunt and fend for themselves (mush to his wife's ire.)
Sister: Aeron : Fraternal twin sister to Kazira she is the mini version of their mother; quiet and reserved with a quiet anger. She was the one thing that helped Kazira calm down in one of her anger fits. She has white hair and blue eyes like their mother. While Kazira had a better grasp on the nature magic, Aeron had a better grasp on curses. She was 15 when she went missing after their parents death

.:Occupation:Mercenary, Trader.

.:Current Location of Residence: Camelot. (traveling)

.:History:
Kazira is from a small village called Sangontium, a coastal village. Her family were travelers. Her father, Sador, and mother, Alesia, were small time witches. They were nomadic and peaceful but they were mercenaries. That was the reason for their travels usually. But they often did trade with other kingdoms. When her family came to Camelot Alesia was pregnant. That was just two years before the heir to the throne had been born. When her and her sister were born they very rarely took to traveling to Camelot, though at the time the twins had no idea why. But one day they arrived in Camelot and Kazira was amazed with how beautiful it was. She fell in love with the place and almost cried when they left. She never went back.

Her father was a different type of man and Kazira loved him deeply even though he did throw them out to the wild to fend for themselves. But he truly thought that with their trade they had to understand that they couldn't depend on anyone to defend or protect them all the time. They had to take care of themselves. The only down side was learning the spells of the old religion. Kazira got the hang of the natural spells but Aeron had a tough time getting her curses right. One day Kazira was sitting in front of her sister trying to get Aeron to concentrate when a bird flew passed and startled Aeron who accidentally cursed Kazira. It wasn't necessarily a bad curse but if not trained it could cause the cursed to go out of their minds because of all the voices of the wild they would hear.

One day though when Kazira was 15 years old. Her parents sent her to get dinner. They had camped out on in the outskirts of Camelot. Aeron had stayed back to continue to practice her spells (without their parents knowing). Kazira had only been gone for a few hours; on the way back to camp she had a sinking feeling in her gut. She feared the feeling and ran back to the camp; only to see that her parents had been killed. She didn't see her sister anywhere but only feared the worst. She dropped her kill grabbed her bag and took off. Her training kicked in. Her father always said that if something didn't feel right she would have to run and never look back. What she saw was burned into her memory along with the color of the cloth that her mother was clenching in her fist: red cloth.

That was how she ended up alone looking for her sister. Along the way she found her companion, Moros. A giant black great Dane wolf mix. She was a little hesitant to trust an animal but soon after he saved her from some bandits, he became her family and best friend.
