Shu
IzurichGeorgia Chandler
There are two ways of spreading light, to be the candle or to be the mirror that reflects it.
Age:
23
Race:
Human
Origin:
Vernthouth
Appearance:
A young woman with rarely a smile. Georgia's hair is dark brown, often mistaken with black, with the occasional gray strand and touching past her shoulders. Blue eyes contrast her rather stark appearance. Her small figure is average for a simple worker with Georgia's wardrobe having a tendency to hide her body with ebony coat and leggings with ill-fitted boots. She seems to have a penchant for buttons, as they can be found in various unnecessary locations.
Materials are pocketed away into leather satchels that sling around her shoulder, each compartment holding a different item. Canisters and vials can be spotted along her waist and in front of her belly, some filled with various liquids and herbs. A dark wooden bow with a full quiver of arrows on her back. One last curious item is a hardbound container for a tome beneath her right arm; it has two latches for security.
Georgia has some jewelry: glass lantern earrings with a faint orange hue; a slightly loose ring upon her right thumb engraved with a guild symbol; a silver band around her right index finger fitted with a single citrine.
Personality:
Melancholy. Memories and experiences are defining traits for anyone, though for Georgia they are more than the past. She believes her future will repeat her story over again, an endless cycle of solemn hope, betrayal, and loneliness. Will her time with the Order be any different?
Empathy. A drive to improve not only herself, but the quality of life of others regardless of the misgivings of the world. She lives vicariously through the stories of others, whether they be ink upon a page, lyrics of a sonnet, or tales by the fire. Georgia prefers the excitement and energy of others, a life fulfilled or content in even a moment will be treasured for the rest of her days. When she is not actively listening to another, one may spot her huddled away with an old journal. Sometimes writing. Sometimes reading.
History:
Georgia Chandler is the only daughter of Frederik and Maxine Chandler. Frederik, like his father before him and his father before him, served the royal family of Vernthouth suppposedly since the First Era as candle makers and lighters. They have lived comparably comfortable lives, slight luxuries afforded to them for their dedication and loyalties over the years. Being the only child of Frederik, Georgia was taught from an early age to be a stewardess and chandler. Life with other castle families was good.
The death of the king and prince was grave news to the Chandler family. They had supported Queen Relia, but political intrigue reaches far into the walls. First there were subtle threats to anyone that served the Queen, some likelihood of dissent from the ranks if even simple professionals had to fear for their lives. Perhaps Maxine knew something that Georgia couldn't possibly conceive, being a confidant of the Queen herself. That was the only rationale for Georgia as a pale Frederik, quietly, aggressively, bade his daughter goodbye. He had paid for her travels from the city, much to Georgia's protests, and soon she was taken away by Henry, the family's close friend and guard of the castle.
Time passes on their journey. They arrive in the Ghenna Mountains, specifically to Farron Peak: sanctuary of the Order of the Sacred Flame. Here she trains alongside Henry, a blurry line of intimacy and dependency, and given no detail into her family's situation. She writes letters several times a week, though that too has slowed down since her arrival.
