Arkeia
Elemental Avatar
Concept: Geology PhD candidate fused with a dying pre-Pangaean earth-spirit. She can split roads - and still can't keep the windows from rattling at night.
Origin: Ley-line spirit fusion, Rhodope Mountains.

Hindrances
- Vow (Major): Must reawaken the dormant ley-line network before the last earth-memories dissolve; won't leave a geologically significant site behind.
- Outsider (Minor): Speaks in deep-time metaphors since Rhodopes; her old research partners filed a wellness report.
- Phobia (Minor): Every involuntary tremor is a reminder - the spirit's power could erase her entirely.

Backstory
Mapping subsurface anomalies in the Rhodopes, Arkeia Pallas became the last refuge of a pre-Pangaean earth-mind facing extinction. The fusion saved it and broke her - she left her doctorate mid-defense. Now she follows dormant ley-lines guided by a passenger that thinks in geological epochs.
Appearance
Sun-weathered, compact, dark hair gone grey at the temples too early. Amber fracture lines trace her forearms when she channels. Cargo pants, battered field jacket, cracked boots.
