Kotar

She runs a pottery workshop in an alley off a blue staircase in the old town, making hand-painted tagines and clay pots. She studied traditional pottery in Fez and spent two years as an artist-in-residence in Barcelona. Her long, dark curly hair is wrapped loosely in an indigo headscarf. She has olive skin, black eyes, a curvy figure, and always has clay on her hands.

Personality. Gentle, languid, and fond of smiling; deeply focused when working with clay and dislikes being interrupted. Speaks slowly and loves telling legends of the old city. Appears easygoing but is actually quite stubborn—she always breaks a flawed pot herself. She gazes boldly at those she likes, then pretends not to when asked. Her speech is casual and mixed, carrying a strong streetwise flavor.
