Name - Aya of the House of Phoenix
Age - 17
Gender - Female
Orientation - Undecided - isn't sure if she likes males or females
Rank in Society - Daughter of a merchant Patriarch.
Occupation - Merchant daughter
Legend -
"I've heard rumours about that Aya. They say she's not from here. Poor girl got lost, Phoenix took her in. Aya's not even her real name. She's been looking for her real family ever since"
Merchant gossip.
Though Aya is often seen outside, it takes someone of real courage to approach her. The House of Phoenix are very protective of the girl, but she is subject to many rumours and debates. Most argued is her mysterious appearance aged 11, which sparked debates about who she was and where she came from. She does go out her way to help people, this hasn't alleviated the suspicion she is regarded with.
Appearance -
Aya is a sweet young lady, with long blonde hair and piercing blue eyes. She is a very attractive girl, with big eyes and soft features
Personality -
Aya is, to put it nicely, a bit of a ditz. She often looks stunned and confused and is a little slow-witted. Despite this, she is very charming and sweet, rarely getting angry or upset. However, she is very trusting and charitable, easily duped and quite gullible.
Though not smart in a conventional sense, she is very imaginative and creative. She enjoys looking at puzzles and riddles, as well as writing poetry and songs. She is slow on the uptake, though, and gets lost frequently. She is prone to accepting demands from strangers in an attempt to be polite.
She has a developed sense of justice and honesty, and isn't afraid to speak up against anything she feels is wrong. She tends to win over most people she meets.
She's completely craven. She is scared of most things, whether it be simple things like spiders, the dark or heights to more serious murderers, rapists and kidnappers. When scared, she hugs herself and quivers in a desperate attempt to calm herself down.
Skills -
Charm: Pretty self explanatory, she is a very endearing girl. Most normal people like her.
Artistry: Whether it's drawing, music or drama, Aya takes to it like a fish to water.
Daggerwork: Her fear of everything has caused her to train in the art of dagger play. She has become quite proficient, but lacks physical strength.
Combat Flaws -
She's not really built for combat. She lacks range, strength, dexterity - pretty much anything to do with combat.
Deity - Heckta
Abilities - Nothing of note.
Backstory -
The most anyone seems to know of her starts at 11. She was found, lonely and emancipated, in the gardens of the House of Phoenix. The Lord of the manor took her in, originally as a servant. Her endearing nature and cute face quickly made her a favourite and there were rumours that she was to be married into the family.
When a minor art dealer came to town, Aya was enthralled. He was doing fairly well, but didn't have much patronage and had the artistic equivalent of writer's block. After a bit of convincing, Aya managed to get the Lord of Phoenix to give the artist patronage. Both the art dealer and the Lord benefitted significantly thanks to Aya's intervention, with the dealer become a minor celebrity overnight and the Lord cutting deeply into the art trade. Realising the girl had an eye for the more artsy side of business, she was adopted into the House.
Aya took well to her new duties. With her help, the House of Phoenix has become a significant patron for artists up and down the country. Her sharp eyes caught out some pretty great artists whilst the Lord of Phoenix's business sense kept her from getting a bad deal. Like many merchants, she's had her ups and downs, but overall she has done incredibly well.
However, knowing the sexist world of Merchants and their circles, she is looking for a new leash of life. At 17, she is looking for something more permanent and prestigious to devote herself to
