| - Charming, amiable, and thoroughly disarming, Tzigane is a fast-moving, fast-talking gnomish woman with an appreciation for the finer things in life. She possesses a strong flair for drama and style, which frequently manifests itself in day-to-day activities. She is exceptionally good at story telling and improvisation, and has a knack at successfully making up things as she goes along, despite her frequent lengthy attempts to create a plan and then follow it; nearly all of her best-laid plans tend to fall apart on her and so she's forced to rely on her quick wits and charm to survive the aftermath. Fortunately, she's intuitive and is able to process information quickly, giving her the ability to quickly and accurately size up a situation. Accordingly, Tzigane is quite flexible and adapts well to a wide range of tasks - or sudden changes. The gnome woman has an uncanny ability to perceive people's attitudes and motivations; she picks up on little cues such as facial expressions and stance, which often go unnoticed by other individuals. Coupled with the fact that she's typically a couple of steps ahead of the person that she's dealing with, Tzigane is able to use this ability to get what she wants out of a situation. In conflict with this intuition, however, is the deepseated belief that the woman can do anything that she puts her mind to, a situation often compounded by her diminutive stature as viewed by the majority of races on Azeroth. Rules and laws are guidelines for behavior rather than absolute mandates. If she has decided that something needs to be done, Tzigane's desires take precendence over the rules. However, she possess a strong personal belief in what's right and what's wrong, and will doggedly stick to her principles. Other people's rules may hold little value to the rogue, but her own integrity mandates that she will not under any circumstance do something which she feels to be wrong. Despite her eloquence, when expressing her underlying principles, Tzigane feels awkward and may speak abruptly and intensely. Had the term existed in gnome society, Tzigane would have been recognized as a moderate technophobe early in her youth. Since childhood, she's felt uncomfortable around machines, unnerved by both their potential for harm and by what she perceived to be the casual disregard given to them by their gnomish creators. This unease was further aggravated by the good intentions of her family, who recognized her malady and tried to help her overcome this fear; understanding that she wasn't technically savvy, they involved Tzigane in the family business by having her serve as a tester for their various - and often ill-fated - prototypes. As a result, the gnome woman has a deep-rooted dislike of technology and feels an almost-physical discomfort when attempting to use a machine.
