Basics:
Name: Inara Serra
Age: 54
Picture:
Build: Slim
Hair: Black
Eye color: Dark Brown
Height: 5'6
Skin Tone: Tan
Personal:
Personality: Inara has a very strong will, it is extremely hard to break her. Even though she was afraid to die, even though she was afraid to see someone she love die. She wouldn't show it, that was the kind of person she was. But most importantly she is very loyal as well, you can trust her with everything and anything. No matter what it is. She would sit and listen to any problems that someone would have, she would listen to you. She does have some passion in her as well, even though she has some issues with telling people what she thinks of them. She doesn't mean to be difficult to people.
But she also has a temper, but who doesn't really. Sometimes she is so head strong she would run into danger, but she tries to keep herself in check. Being protective over her friends, family and the innocent. Make the fact she is full of courage a bad thing at times. Inara used to just let people talk down to her, but not any more. As she gets older she gets more and more gutsy, which is why she can be honest with people. But even if she is bossy at times, she really is a nice person.
However she does take her job very seriously, if you are caught being lazy that's not a very good thing because she will report you. And since she has a big responsibility she keeps everyone on there toes and tries to keep everyone honest, so there isn't any kind of problem with anyone. She does require that you give her respect, because its not deserved in her opinion it's earned.
Inara is a professional, Alliance regulated companion (or as Captain Mal Reynolds likes to taunt, a whore). Schooled in a training center at house Midrassa on Xenon, that is religiously based to a slight degree (she prays before a Buddha-like statue and lights incense in a ritual manner). She was a trainer and very high ranking member (with potential to become 'House Priestess') at the training school and order, when, for unknown reasons she left taking up residence in a rented shuttle on Captain Reynolds' ship, Serenity, which became her new base of operation. She claims she wanted to get out and see the universe (she also once said "we're all running from something"), but there is reason to feel there was more to her decision to set out on her own than just that simplistic one.
She is highly educated, refined, articulate and skilled to some degree in a bit of Martial Arts, swords, the long bow and cross bow. Her ways of work include formal tea ceremonies, foot washing and love making to the men and women of her own choosing on a professional contracted level.
She rents her space (which gets invaded by Reynolds all the time) at 75% of what Mal asked for, because she brings respectability to a ship and crew that are, well, a bit rough around the bits and pieces that are falling apart as they take off and land. She's also become deeply in love with Mal Reynolds (who is also in love with her, but ticked off at her choice of job and not too thrilled about the fact she supported Unification, which he fought against in a bloody war), but tries not to show it and keeps him at arms length (while secretly praying he'll come back alive from his various adventures). In fact, the two of them constantly do this Gavotte ("I know this dance," says Mal in the Shindig episode of Firefly) around each other, often spouting at the mouth in anger while making love to each other with their eyes. Inara is the only one who can get away with bossing the great Captain Reynolds around on his own ship. She, like Serenity pilot Wash, is a voice of reason on the ship. The ship she fell in love with the moment she saw it.

Ignorance
Jerks

RP Sample: Inara had been doing a lot of thinking lately, and began to wonder what would happen if she lost everything. She loved the ship the moment she set her eyes on it, and loved Malcolm pretty much the first time they saw each other. Something about him always made her very happy, and she was always thrilled about spending time with him. He knew what she did for a living, but never seemed to care. And here they were together, on the ship and with a child of there very own. She was walking the halls thinking of many things, when she accidentally bumped into Mal, she smiled and kissed his check.
"Hi Mal" She said kindly.
