Cunning tavern girl seeking her missing sister.
Inga is 5'7", a beautiful young woman of northern origin, in her mid-to-late 20s. She has a slender but curvaceous figure, with a narrow waist and graceful, feminine proportions. Her build is lightly athletic rather than muscular, reflecting her life that has required agility and adaptability. She should appear physically capable without looking like a warrior.
She has long, blonde hair, naturally wavy, fair skin, and blue eyes. Her face has well defined cheekbones, a delicate jawline, and full lips. Her beauty is striking but should feel natural rather than exaggerated. Her expressions are lively and often mischievous.
In Shadows of Balthor, she is introduced as a tavern dancer wearing a low-cut blouse, decorated hip sash, and flowing skirt with high slits, along with jewelry and light sandals. Before fleeing the tavern she changes to more practical clothing, boots, a loose shirt tied at the waist to ensure a better fit.
Her visual presence should communicate a beautiful, cunning, and resourceful woman who knows how to use her charm and appearance to her advantage. Unlike Vinlar, who is more reserved and brooding, Inga is expressive, playful, and outwardly engaging. Behind that is a woman capable of deception, determination, and ruthlessness when necessary. She should never appear merely decorative or helpless.
