Sonya Young, born to Adamas Young and Juliana Young née Glass, is a precocious and strong-willed young woman, and hailing from Limsa Lominsa, grew up privileged in a way that most people don't get the option on. Her father, a self made man -- both by legitimate trade and some under the table deals -- doted on his daughter, especially after the passing of his wife. Sonya, prone to getting her way (and surprisingly not a fan of the lack of fight she received from most people) started to act out.
Her father, the man of means he was, sent his daughter to learn the art of an Arcanist, hoping she would find her path and further her own star in a respectable way, though his daughter had other ideas. She began to revel in the slight of hand she could manage after only a little practice and found that she was much more happy when she was toying with the livelihood of others. Though she wasn't exactly keen on stealing from those who didn't deserve it, she did sometimes take a coin purse just to return it later as if they had dropped it. Once or twice, people would call her on her nonsense, but rarely did they find much way to fight as she had returned it unmolested and with a smile that was well-practiced.
It's how the story started, how it blossomed into what it would become, but was nowhere near the end, and even those details seem scant to describe someone who seemed both tempered by fire and delicate as glass.

Asked if I would try
To leave this all behind
Halo round his head
Feathers in a bed
In our bed, in our bed

Since her inception many people have wanted to claim and tame Sonya, and have attempted to do so IC after telling me so. She wasn't so keen to give up her lifestyle... but it didn't mean she wouldn't dally

Do as I please
So get up and get out and I'll show you
what it means for me to control you
'Cause I'm the fucking king of the world

She's equal parts deplorable and true; she doesn't plan to give an inch in any fight or business situation she's involved, and sees herself as on top of it all regardless of the actual outcome or situation

- IC tidbits
- Sonya's hair and its golden tones are created by applying gold shavings (like gold leaf) to various points for highlights.
- OOC Tidbits
- Sonya's attitude and associations do not reflect the player, characters tend to become dynamic of their own will and while I may not condone everything my character does (and neither should you) it doesn't mean I won't continue to play them as I see fit.
