Combining this with her small stature, her demeanor often reminds others of a small animal, even when forcing herself to act bold and confident. She'll carefully choose the classes that require the least amount of human contact possible, but study her own personal interests on the sly. She's passionate about the things she's interested in and is often buried in books, though sometimes this burial is more literal and also an accident. She has some health issues that she won't talk about, and is prone to sleepwalking at all times of day and night, giving the Lamplighters a bit of a headache at times. Once somebody finally notices she's gone missing, she's often caught wandering the school grounds at night, wandering outside the school grounds, attending classes she's not supposed to be in while nobody notices her, and generally being truant or absent. Anyway, aside from these silly little hiccups (that totally aren't her fault), Raffaella is generally a well-behaved girl with flawless attendance and a completely clean disciplinary record (self-proclaimed). Those who get to know her well will learn that she is a sweet thing who wouldn't hurt a fly. The most dangerous thing about her is her occasional sassy sarcasm when she gets super annoyed. Her tastes are generally very girly, loving all things sweet, soft, warm, fluffy, and cute. Oddly, she also seems to like scary campfire stories and monster tales; maybe she actually enjoys being scared? Though, she's a bit secretive about it since it doesn't match her image. Not the type to let a little bullying get her down, she's an indefatigable optimist who just wants to be accepted, and would travel to the ends of the earth with anyone who would welcome her presence in their life. [indent]❖ Spacey ❖ Wistful ❖ Bottler of Emotions ❖ Cowardly ❖ Clingy ❖[/indent] Her absentminded daydreaming and wandering causes all who are prone to worry no small amount of panic when her absence is noticed. Raffaella, for her part, doesn't seem to think this is a big problem and is a bit too comfortable with being isolated from others, given how vulnerable she is. She doesn't yet have a full appreciation for the dangers of the world, given that she's always had caretakers, even if sometimes they were reluctant ones. She knows precious little about the shadowy forces at work in Ersand'Enise, let alone on the grander scale of Sipenta itself. She tends to be absorbed in her own little world. Though Raffaella is generally all smiles and comes across as childish, she is unexpectedly comfortable talking about people exactly how they are—warts, scars, missing limbs and all. She is under no such illusion that the world is a perfect fairy tale, or her its princess whom it revolves around. She thinks like a cynical person, but consciously chooses optimism, and this hidden shrewdness catches some people off guard. It can create distrust in her public persona, or create the illusion that nothing bothers her, which can be a problem if others decide that she can handle some mean remarks or being used as an emotional trash can for everyone to vent to. Truthfully, there are plenty of things that will bother Raffaella, but she bottles it all up inside for the sake of everyone involved. Sometimes, spills happen, which generally ends with her settling up on her "crying debt." Raffaella seeks acceptance and emotional validation with a quiet and unspoken desperation. Her running away from home started as a cry for help, and not much has changed. Though it's generally assumed that she has no control over her sleepwalking, it tends to occur when she is running away from an interpersonal conflict or some bottled-up grief that she has yet to get out of her system. She hates conflict, and open arguments will usually have her freezing up and backing down, then running away to some isolated place to brood. Her troubled childhood left a void of warmth in her heart that she'll seek to fill with anyone who offers even the illusion of familial affection. Any "free hugs" on offer are usually more for herself than for others.

Um... I-If I don't have to talk, I guess it's f-fine..?"[/color][/center][/b] A petite young lady of ethereal beauty with gentle and decidedly pink features: hair and eyes—courtesy of a little arcane parlor trick—and often cheeks to match. A mere 45 kg (99 lbs), standing at only 146 cm (4' 10"), she wears a school uniform that's a bit too big and covers her like a blanket. She has some odd taste in accessories that make her stand out from the crowd, which she wears in spite of her terrible shyness. She's the type of girl who likes to have a cute and fluffy animal in one hand, and a source of sugar in the other. She is rarely seen without either, but keeps her hands to herself whenever they're empty, folding them in her lap in a girlish way—or more commonly, inside her sleeves, as she gets cold easily. Despite her insatiable appetite and sweet tooth, she has a tiny frame, and her pale complexion makes her seem somewhat frail, like a gentle breeze might carry her away to some faraway place, never to be seen again. [h3][u]T H E G I F T [/u][/h3] Raffaella has studied several magicks under the tutelage of the Chamarine Order, primarily chemical. Her specialties are in swift movement by flight, illusions and concealment, and disruption of enemy consciousness—in other words, running and hiding. She can offer support as needed, but prefers to avoid fights altogether if she can. She can strengthen allies with internal chemical and create bandages using alchemy, but she isn't a trained binder by any means. Blood is gross and bones are creepy, so her medical knowledge is essentially nil. Her middling RAS is too low for Atomic or Temporal, and the forbidden schools are—well, they're forbidden, so!

After occupying the cranial fluid and folds in the brain, the Sleepwalker mana begins to create neurological changes in the host similar to that of some marine mammals. The mage finds themself able to rest while keeping a part of their brain in a low activity state, allowing them to perceive outside threats while sleeping and return to full alertness. Hosts in the advanced stages of growth can train their bodies to perform high energy tasks and even reactively cast spells without leaving this state of half sleep. [b]Mechanical effects:[/b] At the start of combat, roll a d4. A 1 represents full alertness; nothing happens, reroll next turn. A 2 means only the left brain is awake; 3 means only the right brain is awake, and a 4 means fully asleep standing up. In all three of these cases, roll a d20 to determine the quality of sleep/nature of the dreams. [i][b]Glutton:[/b][/i] [b]Description:[/b] The main mana colony resides within the host's digestive system. This allows them to digest organic materials that would normally be inedible, such as tree bark and even decaying matter. Food is digested several times faster than a normal person and processed into nutrients just as quickly, giving them an accelerated healing factor and an instant energy boost that scales with calories consumed. However, the host's appetite is insatiable. They grow hungry at least twice as quickly. [b]Mechanical effects:[/b] All consumable item effects are enhanced. Buff effects and debuff drawbacks are doubled, but only last half as long. If an effect would last for an entire encounter/cycle, it lasts for 5 turns instead. If the item only has a chance to do something, the Glutton rolls with advantage. One-time healing effects are boosted by one damage tier. When a Glutton uses Binding on themselves or receives healing, they are boosted one damage tier and/or receive +4 on splash. [i][b]Dreamcaster:[/b][/i] [b]Description:[/b] A mana type obtained from a rare form of aberration. The mage's mundane dreams are gradually replaced by images from the VOID, giving them visions of warped landscapes, strange anomalies, frightful demons, and long lost artifacts. Every night the mage sleeps, they will have a small chance to produce one of the following effects: [b]Mechanical effects:[/b] If Raffaella rolled a 2 for Sleepwalker and 1-3 on a d20, she will have a nightmare, or a pleasant sleep if she rolled a 20. If she rolled a 3 and 18-20, she will have a pleasant sleep, or a nightmare if she rolled a 1. If she rolled a 4, both nightmares and pleasant sleep are equally likely to have with a 1-2 or 19-20, respectively. Depending on the outcome, the following effects will occur, lasting for the current cycle only: [b]Nightmare:[/b] Roll a d2. If a 1, Commune with the VOID or cast Power of Nothingness (Tier 3) without consuming an action. If a 2, Summon a loyal VOID being to your location for a day (roll a d20 to determine Tier). [b]Pleasant Sleep:[/b] Roll a d2. If a 1, Pull a random item from the VOID (roll a d20 to determine Tier). If a 2, Temporarily gain knowledge of an unknown spell from demonic whisperings (roll a d11 to determine the magic school and other situationally appropriate dice to determine which spell).

Raffaella was born to a nobleman and a common mistress, and when it became clear to the woman that the birth of her daughter would not result in her ascension into the nobility, she abandoned Raffaella at an orphanage, as the young glutton was quickly becoming too much to care for. This would remain a problem as young Raffaella grew up, with very few interested in adopting her due to the widespread poverty of the area. As she watched all of her friends leave the orphanage (and her) behind, she did not understand why—but she did notice a pattern: the smallest and cutest tended to get snatched up quickly. Desperate to have a proper family and a home, she worked diligently on her appearance—makeup, magic, and eating less—until she was the smallest and cutest of all, despite her nightly habit of sleepwalking to the kitchen. Finally, the day came, and for a few years she was truly happy. However, history would soon repeat itself as Raffaella could not hide her ravenous appetite from her caretakers indefinitely. Her happy home would quickly become a battleground, her adoptive parents frequently arguing over how to make ends meet. Overwhelmed, she began to spiral, and developed a pattern of running away from home to get away from the ongoing crisis. One day, to her horror, her adoptive parents seemed to have accepted that she'd vanished for good, as she overheard them talking to a traveling mage who explained what she was. It seemed like her adoptive parents didn't even care about her anymore, and were just glad that they wouldn't have to feed her anymore. It broke her heart. Crushed, she returned to the orphanage, unable to face the false smiles she knew awaited her when she did return home—but the orphanage was much the same. The nuns seemed annoyed that she had returned. In a stroke of luck that was surely owed to her by this point, she didn't have to bear the scorn for very long: the same traveling mage who had been chatting with her adoptive parents just a few days ago happened to find her, and chose to adopt her. She was going to send her to a magic school in Inipor too! Assured that the new environment would help her heal, she departed for the traveling mage's home in Virang. Despite scoring rather low in RAS, the entry-level academy in Inipor accepted her application quickly. Her worries of not fitting in at this new place proved unfounded, as the miniature Méattan became a darling among the Zenos, who affectionately referred to her by the same nickname her new adoptive mother gave her, Küçük. It did, however, result in her receiving more attention than other students, which earned her the scorn of a few—but she always had a support network. [h3][u]M O T I V A T I O N [/u][/h3] Most would say that Raffaella is an aimless girl. The one thing she believes she knows for sure is that getting married is out of the question, and becoming delinquent and living a life of crime doesn't suit her, so she'll need a job someday—but she's physically frail on account of a history of malnutrition, and ill-suited to physical labor. She loves to play the violin, but seems resigned to her inability to perform on a stage due to her desperately shy personality. When asked, she once told a Zeno some joke about being a "ghost writer" for someone destined to be famous. She loves baking and is determined to make the "sweetest desert ever." To this day, she blames herself for the divorce of her parents and all the familial struggles she's experienced in life, and is often seen in fervent prayer for the flourishing of any and every couple she encounters, earning her the nickname of "Ipte's Penitent." The nuns like to dote on her and make sure she never feels lonely again. [h3][u]I N V E N T O R Y [/u][/h3] Raffaella, a commoner whose life has been turned upside down multiple times, owns very few possessions. Nuns of the Chamarine Order have provided her with a wide variety of pretty dresses and chic accessories, which seem prone to intermittently become lost items just like their ditzy owner. She does have a few curious things: [hider=Budding Rosary][b]Name:[/b] Budding Rosary [b]Item Description:[/b] A gorgeous rose-themed rosary, decorated with the birthstones of Tiptos and Tellos. As a gift from a certain Hundrian nun, it reminds the owner to be bold and flourish. Provides 16 manas. [b]Couple's Blessing:[/b] When using a turn to pray, all couples that are combo defending gain a +10 bonus that turn. The bonus does not apply if a third wheel joins the combo defense. Also applies to [i]enemy[/i] couples. [b]Pearl Clutch:[/b] The owner of this rosary will always survive any damaging attack of Tier 5 or lower with 1 HP, so long as they have more than 1 HP. This effect extends to up to two allies, so long as they are holding hands with the rosary-holder (this costs Raffaella a turn). There may be a way to abuse this, but only an absolute [i]monster[/i] would do something like that. Monsters roll an increasing number of d2s for consecutive activations. [i]Just saying.[/i] [img]https://i.imgur.com/slxeLvr.png[/img][/hider] Use: A symbol of divine protection. She's never seen without it. [hider=Sweet Toothpick][b]Name:[/b] Sweet Toothpick [b]Item Description:[/b] More of a skewer than a toothpick. Doubles as a wand but may result in teasing if used for eating at the same time. Tipped with metal prongs, works well with magnetic and arcane. Provides 10 manas. [b]Ipte's Feast:[/b] When the Sweet Toothpick is pointed at a food item, it is attracted to the user. So long as it can be pierced and held by the skewer, it can be cooked and eaten immediately. Can be used to steal food, both in battle and at the dinner table. Gluttons can use this to attract... [i]dubious[/i] items of interest. [b]Chef's Kiss:[/b] Any spell that can, in theory, be used to cook food is enhanced by one skill modifier tier. [img]https://i.imgur.com/IqDrHW0.png[/img][/hider] Use: Her singular weapon. Can be used to steal consumables from enemies trying to use them. [hider=Arslan's Lost Yarn of Aberrative Memories][b]Name:[/b] Arslan's Lost Yarn of Aberrative Memories [b]Item Description:[/b] A curious ball of fiery red yarn that appeared on Raffaella's pillow one night. Oddly warm to the touch, it feels strangely nostalgic, and seems to have special properties. No one knows where it came from—maybe an alternate universe? Provides 6 manas. [b]Spin a Tale:[/b] When spinning the yarn, it appears to its owner as if it were drawing connections between people, like a thread of fate. The user's imagination will run wild as to what this could mean, which may have a chance to [Influence Reality]. Effects are context-sensitive and always small. Can be used 9 times per arc. [b]Wool of Cool:[/b] In any situation where shitty rolls rule applies, the holder of this yarn trips and falls into Greyspace, becoming intangible and fading from existence and the collective consciousness of enemies and allies alike. Failure isn't embarrassing if nobody notices, right? This effect can also be activated manually at any time that rerolling is a valid action, but it will cost that reroll. Yeah, she totally meant to do that. [img]https://i.imgur.com/5pOx9qn.png[/img][/hider] Use: A strange item, supposedly a gift from Vashdal. Sees use only rarely.

They specialize in hunting small to midsized dragons and direstorks, however. Their short fur is usually striped gold and black. This is a battle companion. [*]Two male Geistcats. Invariably a very deep shade of black, this cat sometimes takes on a purplish hue due to the frogs, snails, and small threshers and turtles that it commonly consumes. In many tales, these are the companions of witches. They are all born with greyborn manas and have the ability to fade partway into greyspace. Its unusually large mouth, which helps it crush its hard-shelled prey, always seems to be smiling. Often, the eerie white smile and gleaming golden eyes are all that an observer will see.

In reality, she's far too shy to show off, but some consider that part of her appeal. While she won't be winning anyone over with a silver tongue, there's just something disarming about Raffaella's innocuous image that makes her easy to trust. Perhaps it's her meek and slightly clumsy personality, or maybe it's her gentle complexion and honest facial expressions, or it might be her warm and high-pitched voice, or the way she speaks her mind openly about the positive points of others. She loves pink, soft and fluffy things, cute animals, and is easily bribed with sweets—which she regularly sneaks in to any class whose teacher will tolerate it. Raffaella may be easy to look down on, but even for those who find her cutesy persona grating, she's hard to outright hate, especially when she's so eager to help others when asked... even if it's just a way to avoid awkward conversations sometimes. [h3][u]W E A K N E S S E S & F L A W S [/u][/h3] [indent]❖ Emotionally Needy ❖ Fragile Flower ❖ Bleeding Heart ❖ Self-Neglect Master ❖ [color=2e2c2c][abbr=?]?[/abbr] ❖[/color][/indent] While Raffaella is generally optimistic and not the sort of person who is "never okay," she does have a few issues, including some health issues that render her rather frail, a fact which is easily forgotten as she flies energetically from place to place. Raffaella prefers to use magic to fly rather than walk everywhere to conserve her energy, which makes the glutton mana type slightly more bearable. She remains a sensitive soul who is quick to get dragged into emotionally charged situations, even if it's something as mundane as a pet cat hit by a cart. She tends to run herself ragged for others at times, perhaps because it distracts her from her fear of abandonment. So long as [i]someone[/i] thinks she's useful to have around, she won't be forgotten again. [h3][u]M I S C E L L A N E O U S [/u][/h3] "Küçük" literally means "small."[/hider]
