[b]Goddess:[/b] Elpis, Greek (Hope, Suffering and Spirit) [b]Profession:[/b] qualified pilot on a medium lifft helicopter, and up to a DC7 4 engine cargo plane. Used to work for cargo arm in office and flying Neo city run. Now a pilot instructor for deadlaus airlines trianing prospective pilots to fly various types of aircraft from the old cargo airport and international hub. Recently signed a permanent contract. [b]Bio/Personality:[/b] Daughter of an English wealthy family, her mother Maria raised her alone after her father Vesarian a captain and owner of a shipping enterprise involved in several less than above board jobs left her before she was born. Raised on the family estate she was taught for her younger years quickly learning to be fluent in both Latin and English as an old family tradition dictated. Sent off to a private academy when she was barely in secondary education, she soon found her skills after an injury on running track in the swimming pool and won multiple awards in various championships. Though this time was not all easy, being away from family for so long, being abandoned as a child and a lack of a “home” took its toll and made her distant and also reserved. Things turned round when she took a flying lesson for fun as part of the academies extracurricular programme; she soon took to it and passed her full license just before she was 18. Returning home to her family, the manufacturing business was turning nasty and a rival firm moving meant her happy reunion was shortlived soon sucked into the internal battles, rivalries internal and external that had plagued the family for decades. Worse still when a mugging went wrong left her with a now scar she hides on her stomach she decided to try and find her own way and escape her family’s internal pull down into its darkside of wealth. Meeting her step sister Victoria and her father just before she left was the final straw and headed off and worked for a mix of local airlines, helicopter taxi and other jobs before now taking a role at the Sol city Daedalus Airlines and settling down into a smaller but well-furnished top floor apartment in one of the outer districts. Recently arrived into the city she has not got many ties to the place, renting everything out of habit from a pre furnished apartment, to an offroad SUV (land rover Discovery) on short term leases, never wanting long term ties to a place. (Had to leave anchorage after a news article linked her father to legal arms trade in Africa and her and his name where linked by a investigative journalist. Headed to Sol city to take up a new work contract for local air freight company.) Personality wise she is fairly confident, flirty but also takes a while to warm to people having moved about so much. Fairly easy going, slower to trust though and less willing to forgive. Not always wanting to get very close to people as less to deal with when she moves on. Maybe the new city will change her outlook or just be another stamp on the passport. Caring but again takes time for that to happen after many moves, and too many people. Generally takes time for true self to evident. Has very few personal effects with her bar the named jewellery as had been pretty nomadic since she was 18 ish, 9 years or thereabout. [b]Chapter One[/b] Recently working for deadlaus she survived a assult by Bob and being drugged at a jazz event early in city. Became close to several people in the city. Was on TV and by chance radio comms listing announced the winner of Sol city Grand prix. One of hosts of the Olympus Heavy Industries Gala. Relationships with Joel has began to go somewhat off track and they had there problems but also does not want to give up on things. Be it as a freind, or more. After a events and taking a permanent contract they reactivated a family property to provide her and her sister a more secure and private home in the city. Currently unsure about her relationships and friendships in the city, given Dramas at the end of the Gala. Now more settled having moved to her family property in the city, its privacy and increased security having been beneficial to her mental health and mind set. Still worried what certain people will react like knowing they moved into and family own a Manor on one of the most prestigious historical streets in the city, where many homes have been held in families or passed down for decades. Still she found it easy to slot into the position of a Lady of the Manor vs a apartment.
