Season 12 - Inquisition
Appearance

A gamine sort of figure, this girl - probably a girl, judging by the light, lilting voice. She stands at a knobbly 5’ even, with dark skin and a thatch of pale blonde hair in a ragged slaughter that no skilled barber ever had a hand in. Thick, aggressive brows and a wide, slightly down-turned mouth, coupled with a snub nose and an angular jaw, gives her a severe, dour expression even at rest. Her chin thrusts into a faded orange scarf, and most of her body is swathed in a faded gray cloak with tattered edges and visibly patched spots, hands in mismatched gloves visible only when she gestures. Skinny legs in wide canvas trousers secured with twine around the calves and slightly-too-large leather boots complete the picture. Her eyes are her only apparent beauty: almost uncannily large, with one a pale green, the other cloud-gray.
Doings
Spent years in Northgate wringing the secrets of magic from fallen Aasimar ruins. Befriended Emma Spinsugar in the Observatory until her disappearance. Followed Lumotu to the site of the rebellion meeting and ambushed them when she realized they were plotting against the Swans.
Over time learned to make friends; became closest to Astarael. Exploded at Vanja on discovering her betrayal and tried to kill her in the heat of anger, leading to Vanja’s exile from the Tide’s Song. Managed to activate Nurie’te. Begrudgingly began to befriend Ethan. Learned from Sylas Remnant that Adelard Sylas had been her father, but doesn’t really know what to do with that information, given as he never made a difference in her life and was now dead anyway. Also that’s weird. Achieved her years-long goal of entering the Octurne and within hours had to flee as it came crumbling down.
Season 13

Left Galoring a few weeks after the Octurne’s fall to return to Northgate and try to reach the White Tower alongside Ethan and Danica. While they went ahead to try and pierce the Veil surrounding the Tower, she stayed behind in the Observatory to try and study it more from a safer vantage point, uncovering that while the Tower was attempting to terraform the world, there was at least one, maybe two other interfering powers that were hampering it and also weakening reality.
During this time she briefly helped Bax out with some straggling Swan slave caravans and made contact with Esmund through Desmun’s chronograph. After nearly a year of this, went “fuck it” and entered the Veil around the Tower alone, where they found Nurie’te, broken, shortly before the world broke.
Season 14 - The White Crown
Appearance
A gamine sort of figure, this … girl? one might say at a best guess, if one were to judge only by the light, lilting voice. The bulky clothing fit for Autumn Lands weather provides no particular hint in any direction, either, though the roundness of their features and posture suggest someone just past the initial cusp of adulthood, still shedding the slouch of adolescence. They stand at little over a rangy 5’7”, though a look at their thick-soled boots suggests some of this is artificial. They have golden-brown skin and a thatch of pale blonde hair in a ragged cheekbone-length slaughter that no skilled barber ever had a hand in, a longer rat-tail arcing down their shoulders, held back with a blue ribbon. Thick, aggressive brows and a wide mouth that naturally angles downward at the corners, coupled with a snub nose and an angular jaw, gives her a dour expression even at rest. Her eyes are her only striking quality: large and fringed with translucent lashes, one a pale green, the other cloud-gray.
They’re swathed in a heavy wool burgundy coat, a once-fine piece that looks like it then underwent a great deal of abuse, given the patches, faded spots, and indelible stains. The left sleeve is torn entirely off to permit the wearing of a full-length glove with overlapping plates reaching up to the shoulder. Underneath the coat is layered a shorter white hooded piece lined with speckled black fur and trimmed with gold, fastenings crossing over a simple but well-made breastplate. A much-mended, formerly-orange scarf, green-blue tunic, loose wool breeches, a wide harnessed leather belt with pouches aplenty over narrow hips, and knee-high waxed leather boots round out the clothing. A smattering of old scars and exquisitely-made, if well-used armor hints at some martial capability, with mismatched bracers, the breastplate, and a shield slung over the shoulder. Beyond those, though, she carries no apparent weapons.
Doings

Returned about 6 weeks before the start of the campaign, near Yyolwood in the city-state of Italdor. Made their way down to Ivakar’s Passage and met Peach Pine and Rae there. Went into the Daggered Spine, following the pull of their Dreams, and was very happy to reunite with some familiar faces.
Trekked with everyone else through the mountains and immediately found a kindred spirit in Gwin Clockwright. Helped recover the Shard of the Confluence and fled with everyone else in the airship Clockwright to Endergaln.
In Endergaln, took up a job in the workshops of Beryl Vanadium, under the aegis of Gwin. Befriended Karal Ochrefeldt (a tailor), attempted to befriend Rose-Quartz (a street kid), made puppets for and hired street kids for odd jobs, got to know a pub named Bock’s and a small community theater named the Yemiedet, helped Peach get her stories published at the Pink Feather Gazette, trained in the mornings with Bax and Hark’ul and played lots of dragonchess with Ethan.
