Chimi Vogflá

'''“You not feel magic? Strange.. Poor you!” '''

The origins of the woman calling herself Chimi are a mystery. One can only assume she was abandoned at birth. By her vague telling she was raised by great black dogs whose eyes glow green. Such Black Dogs are often considered death omens and something to avoid but Chimi insists they were guardians, guiding lost travellers and protecting people by scaring them away from dangers. Hermetic thinking concludes the creatures must have been faerie given their influence and the changes brought about in the woman, most noticably the tail typically hidden by her dress.

While her language skills are limited along with her experience of people, Chimi possesses an innate sense of the magical. She instinctively knows if she is in a magic aura, can find regio boundaries without much thought and recognise Vis (even if she doesn't understand its hermetic uses). She can even tell if people are under magical effects and pick out enchanted items from identical mundane replicas. Some might find her habit of occasionally getting down on all fours to move about and curiousity about things others take for granted irritating and unusual (even at a covenant) but her abilities more than make up for that. What surprises people most, once they get past her habits, is how friendly she is. Chimi loves hugs.

Story
1190 Chimi first met the residents of Sagehollow while wandering Sherwood. Edric immediately grew curious of her ability to naturally sense Vis and other sources of magic and later her ability to simply see and step through Regio boundaries without effort. This led to her being somewhat adopted by Sagehollow especially after she proved able to detect the magic aura and Aegis, something she didn't mind as she was curious about the idea of mages.

The next season she eagerly agreed to help explore the caves beneath the covenant with her sensitivity to magic proving invaluable due to the ancient spells there. Even where portals were 'locked' she could see beyond to give some idea what to expect. She became very curious about Lady Tessora's religious habits before they found the angelicly guarded Tancred who proved an odd contrast.

Since then she has happily enjoyed her stay at the covenant much to the amusement of many others.

1191 In the summer she accompanied Tessora and Tancred to Summer Bridge. At first it was lots of bad magic and funny talky-talk, meaning she took a nap, but in the night there was lots to see and learn. Like how magic broken swords can save people from death, causing bright lights from all over and how if you do bad things you go for a long walk to a 'holy land'.
