brief backstory
chambui lived on the azim steppe from birth through her early 20's. born into the borlaaq tribe, she eventually moved to the iriq tribe following a period of reflection where she thought she was trans masculine. eventually, they decided that they were nonbinary, not a man, but kept the surname of the all-male tribe as a contrast to her feminine presentation. during her time in the iriq tribe, they dated sadu khatun and reveled in the violence of the dotharl. coming into adulthood, she felt embarrassed about her edgy childhood, and left the azim steppe. initially, they tried out being a summoner, but after realizing that healers were more in demand, she swapped to being a scholar. they traveled to kugane, working as a healer-for-hire for bands of adventurers. when tau reached kugane, he hired her to free up vesi to take on a summoner job. initially, chambui intended to simply leave at the end of their contract, but vesi and vivi convinced her to stay in the group for the long run.
personality
chambui has been described as an ice queen by those she's worked with. they are blunt to an extent, and believe they're justified due to their years of experience being a healer for a variety of parties. she can be tolerant of ignorance if the person is willing to learn, but gets fed up very quickly with those who don't improve quickly. she also can't stand stubborn people, ironic enough considering her own hardheadedness. they are very guarded about their personal life, especially their past, believing for the most part that connecting emotionally isn't necessary to do a good job. she can be outright cruel to people, but she doesn't really mean it most of the time. they tend to complain a lot in duties, but will grit her teeth and push through it.
