The Fate of Ever-changing Skies.

[edit] Details Personality Relationships Rumors Gallery OOC Notes GENERAL INFORMATION "It is both a blessing and a curse to feel everything so very deeply." -D.J. TEXT HERE, sometime... APPEARANCE TEXT HERE, sometime. Aspects That Stand Out: ■ NOTE. ■ NOTE. ■ NOTE. PERSONALITY “You haven't tired of the game. You're just sorry I'm not so easily played.” L I K E S ■ Adult Novels. A well kept secret, the Ishgardian noblewoman is a fan of the written art. Should one snoop through her belongings they would likely find quite a few hidden books. ■ Politics. She quite enjoys the company of those with quick wit, and the ability to hold their own in a debate over political views. D I S L I K E S ■ Jealousy. She finds little use in those that base their decisions with jealousy in mind. ■ The Holy See. Yael has a quiet dislike for the Holy See, and the turmoil the city has fallen into after recent events. ■ Astrologians. Throughout the numerous cycles spent studying her craft, the young Astrologian gained firm appreciation for the delicacy required in keeping Astromancy an undiluted art. She does not believe it to be something one should willingly teach, and the open way in which many share their craft is something to be ashamed of. H O B B I E S ■ Stargazing. The night instills a sense of comfort that little else is capable of providing. The celestial witch breathes, and lives for the stars above. From tracking their movements to bathing in their light every eve'. It is rare a night goes by where she is kept indoors. S T R E N G T H S ■ Confidence. Never shall she wonder over the decisions she makes, for she holds faith that fate shall see her through. Her head is held high, and her position clear. W E A K N E S S E S ■ Ego. She has little attention to offer those viewed below her. M O T I V A T I O N S ■ A lust for power. Forever will she struggle and seek to gain the power that others have overlooked. Be it through connections or dirtied politics, she will take whatever it is she can get. ■ Immortality. Not in the sense that she shall live forever, but in the sense that she will never be forgotten. The witch desires little else than to make a name for not only herself, but for her family. RELATIONSHIP STATUS LEGEND ♥ Family – ♥ Involved – ♥ Romantic – ♥ Platonic – ♥ Physical – ♦ Friend – ★ Acquaintance – $ Business – ✝ Deceased – ✔ Positive – ✖ Negative – ● Neutral – � Unsure FAMILY Velora Sophist, 'Mother'. ( ♥ ) - The Dreaded. Character's Thoughts: "Twas' fated discourse that fanned my ire." Whilst blood is shared between them, Yael will never view Velora as her mother. Having been given up at birth, for reasons the witch views as unfit, trust and care never had the chance to blossom between a mother and daughter as it should. A childish anger taints Yael's opinion of her birth mother, and likely always will. Rekuta Persephone, Twin Brother. ( ♥ ) - The Rival. Character's Thoughts: "Mine heart beats alongside yours, yet forever we shall be at odds." Rekuta is looked upon with an odd sense of fondness that seems almost possessive in nature. Whilst the two grew up separately it has not stopped Yael from gifting him the entirety of her trust without cause. In her eyes he can do no wrong, his only blemish being the opportunities he was offered and she was denied. A strong, and often violent, rivalry has developed between the two and Yael will forever struggle to gain his respect and attention. Mariaute Cahernaut, Mother. ( ♥ ) - The Generous. Character's Thoughts: "There is naught I could give that might repay your generosity." Few words can describe the gratitude Yael feels towards Mariaute, for without her she would be nothing. The Elezen woman is a stalwart role model, and a pillar of stability in an otherwise tumultuous life. NON-FAMILY Mordred Lyloche, Trusted. ( ♥ ♦ ✔ ) - The Struggler. Character's Thoughts: "Demons are demons for Her Children oft struggle to slay them. So what is a man who slays demons?" A chance meeting between the Temple Knight and the ward blossomed into a sprawling friendship that has withstood the threads of fate and the tides of time. While the circumstances continue to shift and the world continues to change, one thing remains ever-certain: Yael can rely on Mordred Lyloche. Lydia Lyloche, Proven. ( ♥ ♦ ✔ ) - The Dragon. Character's Thoughts: "In a different light, one might think her a wyrm. Through a dance of shadows, she accompanies him on a haunted path." The first time had laid eyes upon this woman, she held the grandest of titles as the victor of our summers games. Most shall forever stand in her shadow for the honors she holds are many. A friend. A confidant. A champion. Glace Silencieuse, Friend. ( ♦ ✔ ) - The Hand. Character's Thoughts: "Trusted, tested... I would not be where I now stand without your council." Frost knows the very darkest secrets that lock her heart away, and whilst he has never done anything to break her trust she can not help but fear betrayal. He was seen for a time as a loose end, one to be kept on a short leash, though his recent commitment to her House has calmed her nerves. She would assist him without question, and he is one of few she considers friend. Sigurd Sundsteigen, Companion. ( ♦ ✔ ) - The Reminder. Character's Thoughts: "If only fate had blessed us so... You truly are the man to inherit mine burdens." Sigurd is, and shall forever be, a constant reminder of a life she wishes desperately to escape. He is a good man, one of solid heart and character, but a man that had accompanied her in her darkest of days. Sigurd and Yael rarely talk now, as his newfound inheritance has placed them within separate worlds. Raphael Delarue, Untrusted. ( ✖ ) - The Fallen. Character's Thoughts: “An offered gift led only to the betrayal of my trust. He fell with broken wing rather than soaring with the greatness I had all but ensured.” Captivated by the boy from the first moment they had met, Yael had offered to gift him the greatest treasure she could manage. Greedily he claimed such a prize, and turned his back on her no more than a few suns later. She had trusted, and such trust nearly lead her to ruin. Forever more he is to be considered a stain on her past, and a harsh lesson on offered trust. Tejshar Arcanubis, Entranced. ( ♥� ) - The Devil. Character's Thoughts: “As my own heart beats, I am forever drawn closer. Yet fated, I am, to continuously fall.” An enchanted curiosity keeps Tejshar within the mind of the witch, yet it is something she will vehmently deny. Olivia Uragshi, Untrusted. ( ✖ ) - The Forgotten. Character's Thoughts: “Of whom do you speak?” There was a moment where Yael had found herself within the young Au Ra, a fondness inspired by few. Yet through recent events the witch had discovered a plot to take her very life, and forever more Yael shall be untrusting of one she had hoped to kindle a lasting friendship with. RUMORS N P C Some of these rumors are untrue, speculation, or are greatly exaggerated. ◢ Common Rumors - Easily overheard. Use these freely! ■ "Cahernaut: an unsightly blemish upon what it means to hold occupance within the House of Lords. There is nothing noble about them. Commoners and nobility should never intermingle. Yet we smile and hide our scowls for the witch." ■ "She darkens my doorstep at least once every few suns asking when her favorite author might next publish. Woe unto her, The Knight and the Maid might never be continued." ■ "Have you seen that hat of hers? I was told she plucked it from the corpse of a heretical witch. Commoner trash will always fancy itself outside its means." ◢ Uncommon Rumors - A little more difficult to hear. Use sparingly or ask first! ■ "Oft have I seen her with a hulking knight of black. It's been said that when beset upon by bandits, he drew not his sword and her own magick forced the aggressors to endure a lifetime of horror in but a blink." ■ "In what world does a lowborn noblewoman claim a dragoon in her entourage? Certainly there must be more to the story. A shame when even heroes find themselves ensared by the clutches of a dreaming witch." ◢ Rare Rumors - Very rarely overheard. Please ask before using! ■ "We are all versed in political marriages but the witch need not traipse about with her heart locked cold to that count of hers. What could one expect, though, from the Frigid Witch of Cahernaut?" ■ “She has a brother, a twin. Should he not be the next in line for the House? Instead we've a woman to contend with, a heretical hyur at that!” P C Feel free to add your own rumors to this section. ◢ Player Character Rumors - Some of these are more rare than others! ■ "In my attempt to cut the ties of fate, Yael has been of nothing but help to me. Her magick rips the ties and changes the threads. Truly, if I am to be successful, I must rely on more than mine own sword." — Mordred Lyloche.
