Normal Mits! (Click to Expand)

Standing at just under five fulms tall (That's feet!), the blue and white haired young woman is quite short, compared to most of the other races. Tending to keep her hair short, there isn't a ton of the natural white streaks within it as the rare times she allows it to grow out (Usually when she's just too busy to be bothered with a haircut). Being born of both Keeper and Seeker has it's mark in her hair, though due to events in her history, neither play a part in how she decides to show herself, or be seen by others. Her face as a collection of freckles on it, hard to spot in her Greyish skin tone, though the scars across the bridge of her nose, mostly from her glasses being smashed into her face after a fall, or the strange one across a cheek, She doesn't have any other identifying marks.

Dress wise, depending on the time and situation, she can be found in either a loose pair of pants, with long boots, a simple sleeveless shirt (Hey, it gets warm where she stays!) usually serves to keep her decent, though with the jobs she takes, and work she does, she often is found dressed up in a more suitable nature. When people call upon her to serve as a scribe, or medic, she will don a long skirt, and a fancier shirt, though sometimes she keeps the pants instead...For the Cook, again depending on how formal or high class, she dresses up more, or less...The only exception that she takes, is that if it's a very high class formal event, she wears a suit, not a fine dress.

History

Her past used to be a mystery, even to herself. Washing ashore alongside a few other survivors of some shipwreck without a memory in her head, she took what they said for it's face value about herself, including her name and why she was on the ship there...In truth, they had all spoken the truth, save her first name, and when she set out to do as she was told to be working for, to advance her skills as a cook, as someone that can save lives, and as someone who all around helps others...It felt right, so why question it?

The full truth came to her only recently, though there is still plenty for her to find out. A Doman refugee that was aboard the ship with her and her family at the time had gotten close to them in the travels through lands, and the old man was the one to make sure she lived while her parents, heroes in their own right, fought on to set others free in hopes they would live...You see, the final ship they were aboard was a slaver ship, having been raided and stolen from another, they were all locked in chains...A horrible storm rocked, cracked, and sunk the ship, and though she managed to get free...Her parents, alongside many other faces, would never see the sun again. She found all of this out from the old doman man whom kept her alive, calling her to his bedside in his dying days, having kept a journal from the days they washed ashore...She cannot read it, written in the Doman script, but is slowly learning so she can find out the greater truths, the lost memories... This recently included falling under a compulsion, reading and seeing a certain pattern of words and symbols placed within the journal, she was compelled to drink of a strange wine she was given from the old man's possessions once dead, and awoke later, feeling like crap, to find her skin had darkened, tail fluffed up, eyes even more sensitive to light...And that annoying rolling R she fought so hard to never do was back with vengeance! She believes this to be the result of a botched dose of a potion she already takes weekly, at first, she was driven to only work on finding a reversal...But upon needing to resume her normal duties, and given the time to adjust, that project has been shelved for the foreseeable future.

Even more recently, she was part of a mission within her group to take down a large villain to her group. She originally was supposed to be part of a fallback team, away from major conflict...but a last minute change brought her into the thick of it. While she came out nearly unharmed physically, mentally she is even more a wreck than ever before. Mental anguish and stress leading her to lash out at people around her when she may otherwise listen and be kind, or neglect her current duties in favor of trying to rest and find a center she hasn't had in many a moon.

Personality

Personality wise, the blue haired feline tries to keep up the appearance of a very mature, kind, simple woman. She doesn't go about boasting or drinking, tries to stay as humble as she can, and is always willing to lend a hand when she can. Though of course, sometimes you can't keep up what appearance you wish, having just reached her twentieth year, she is still quite young, and thus has some moments of youthful outbursts, or desires. She jokes with friends, and isn't afraid to swear when she thinks it might be funny. More and more she is finding herself to be split in many emotions and feelings, which is taking a tole on her mind...leading her to be less joyful, and more easily upset at people.

She is currently trying to break away from the shell of being a bit of a prude, and shake off the vibe that she doesn't want people to be a part of her life. Being her company's mom has given her such a mark, now she is stressing herself out with trying to change quickly, trying to do things she really isn't ready for...The slow change she's gone through in her time too slow in her mind, though it really does need to take the time!

• Medical:

Serving as a main medic on staff at The Reclaimers, she is no doctor, nor a medical genius, but knows well enough classical, non-magical medicine to keep everyone alive and well for the most normal of injury and illness, stitching wounds closed after cleaning, applying splints and setting bones for breaks...For the more...Deadly of injuries, she often falls back upon her rarely used magical abilities, not using a focus, and pure memory, she gets things done quick, and saves lives, but is often drained after just a couple uses.

OOC Inspirations

Mitusko was originally thought up to fill a simple role. Playing the "Normal" person within a group of extraordinary people. She has her little areas of expertise, but is otherwise not a fighter, not a magic user, nor a magical healer...She deals in the every day, ordinary needs and business. Cleaning up the Manor, Cooking Daily meals and keeping ready stock of breads and fruits...Always willing to help, but unable to really do much in terms of physical combat or needs. The Ordinary person who cares and supports the Extraordinary, thus becomes Extraordinary themselves.
