[Spiritbride]

Name (& pronunciation): Sylvaine or Syl for short (Pronunciation: Sil-Vane)
Date of Birth (& age): June 25th, (She's 24 years of age)
Place of Birth: Unknown: Her father tells her that he found her abandoned in the forest west of Haywick. So presumably her birth family could be there, but one could not be certain, and Sylvaine was not interested in dwelling on a family who abandoned her for superstitions.
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual
Social Class/Community Status: Adopted into the Middle Class by her Apothecary father, as her father's profession is closer to a tradesman than a physician.
Language: Common tongue for now, possibly somehow understands the equivalent of "infernal" (demonic if in a trance) or might later "speak in tongues"

Physical Description

Height: 5'4"
Weight: 130 lbs.
Hair: Long wavy red hair
Eyes: Green Eyes with lush lashes
Limb Dexterity: Consider an avid reader who might be a bit clumsy when learning self-defense from a book, for example.
Detailed Physical Description: Sylvaine is considered very beautiful, but she doesn't actually know or realize it. She has fair skin, light freckles in the natural flush of her cheeks. Long wavy locks and lush lashes.
Typical Clothing/Equipment: Sylvaine has a simple linen chemise/underdress, and over it she wears her red wool working dress. She has sturdy leather shoes that she's used for long travel to gather supplies for her father. Lastly, she owns a belt and small pouch for her supplies, tools and herbs.

Personality/Attributes

Personality/Attitude: Her positive personality traits are intuitive, caring, and loyal (such as to the father who raised her). Her negative personality traits are on occasion, moody if a headache (the voices) are particularly bothering her. And she's secretive, meaning she keeps most of her inner thoughts and history to herself, unless otherwise persuaded to speak more about her past.
Skills/Talents: Knowledge of herbs and healing has enabled Sylvaine to develop a method of self-medication and weaken or diminish "the voices" over the years. A talent to explore further is akin to that of a clairvoyant/spiritual medium.
Favourites/Likes: Swimming, reading manuscripts, experimenting with creating perfumes, tending to gardens, and collecting stories or riddles.
Most Hated/Dislikes: Impatient or rude patients/customers, condescension from physicians or clergy, spoiled nobles, suffering, and feeling dependent on others.
Goals/Ambitions: Bridge tradition and learning for example her personal history to the practice of abandoning infants to nature based on superstition.
Strengths: Keen observer
Weaknesses: Secretive, susceptibility to dark forces
Fears: Accusation of witchcraft, abandonment or rejection.

 

[Marie K]

Ellenora Imbor
28 years old
Female
Heterosexual
Thief • Peasant

༗

Nickname: El or Ellora
Place of Birth: Dorynth in the Mountains
Date of Birth: 1/01
Languages Spoken: Mountain Tongue, English

༗

Height: 5'9
Weight: 150 lbs
Hair Color: Blonde
Eye Color: Hazel, but mostly blue.

༗

Backstory: If tragedy and sarcasm conceived, Ellenora would be that child. Born in one of the small villages in the mountains, she was born to a simple merchant and his wife. As the only child, she was not the conventional mold for that of an only child. Rather, her father was determined that his lineage would survive for generations to come, and trained his daughter to be fierce and how to survive in the severe mountain country.

At a young age, she learned battle and hunting techniques, alongside her mother's instructions on decorum and grace which seemed so out of place in their small, forgotten village. Despite her parents' quirks, she thrived within the bounds of their watchful, yet vast love for her.

As was rumored, their village was the first that the darkness stole.

El remembers it well, but the has never told a soul of the horrors of it.

From there, the orphaned sixteen year old young woman managed to escape and ended up in an orphanage for one year, where she met the man who would become her employer.

Trained in grace and battle, she has made an excellent thief. Until, that is, she was caught stealing the artifact everyone hung their hopes on- or so they say.

So she ran.

El yet denies this claim, insisting that she was framed.

Not that she could blame them. She really hadn't been a model Arvil citizen.

For who could believe a thief?

༗

Personality: One would never know the scars tragedy has dealt this woman, for El is truly a survivor in body and in spirit. Instead of lingering on the past, she fixates on the hopes and dreams of the future, choosing to live each day with a lowly spirit of gratitude- and maybe an equal dose of spontaneity and sarcasm.

She sometimes gets in her quiet spells, but often this is just time spent mentally plotting or simply enjoying the quiet. Still, one could take offense if not understanding her need to detach occasionally from people and life itself.

On top of this, she can be too blunt or harsh. While her mother strived to teach her propriety, El is a survivor at heart and that callousness that has kept her levelheaded during times of danger, can seep into her actions or words.

But this is rarely the case.

All in all, she may rob you blind if she's been ordered to do so, but she's also a faithful, down-to-earth, and fun to be around.
