Fallon Skylar is a Human Traveller and a founding member of the Scars– as well as its official leader until its dissolution in Winter 514 AV. Raised in various locations throughout Mizahar during her life, she has some understanding – though not complete - of the various cultures about. Having escaped Sunberth, Fallon has settled in the city of Zeltiva in the Sylira region, and is presently attempting to carve out a more normal existence - taking an easier time in comparison to her previous eventful and challenging year. Of course, she doubts if that is even possible at times.

Her features are soft, small and delicate, and where possible she tries to wear an expression of calm - of course there is, on occasion, that mischievous glint that forms upon her face.
Her hair is a thick mane that is beginning to curl at the edges, a mixture of various light and dark highlights appearing at the tips.

Of course those few strands of hair escapes its holding and rests across her face and so framing her features in a collection of blonde shades.
