Rina was a traveling performer hailing from the [[Grasslands]], although she had been constantly traveling since she could walk. Her and Eilie's parents died in a bandit attack when she was a child and she has been taking care of her sister since, gaining far more experience than her age would suggest.

Since then Rina, along with her sister, [[Eilie]], and later their friend, [[Bolgan]], formed a traveling entertainment troupe in which Rina would perform as a fortuneteller. Her charm as well as her ability to observe people as part of her divination act were often key to the safety and survival of her remaining family.
