Lexia Darkviel

== Appearance and Character ==
Lexia is average height with a slim build and toned form, as she likes to ride when she can. She has pale skin, striking dark eyes and matching dark wavy hair that she keeps under firm control as it has a tendency to grow wild.
As a person, Lexia is intelligent and quiet, an active listener and perceptive problem solver. She has an air of aloofness that people often perceive as cold, and she does take a while to warm up to people. That being said, she is kind and giving, hard working and driven and ambitious, though not maliciously so. She is an introvert who is very good at pretending to be an extrovert, and though she entertains often and readily, she will often retreat within herself once on her own, and prefers to be alone for long periods, especially after hosting one of her many feasts or other events.
She was surprised to find that she does not like children very much, and while she has thought of having children by her future husband, she does only what she must in the way of maternal duty, leaving the majority of it to a small army of wetnurses and servants. 
On other days, Lexia would spend time with her mother and her septa, accompanied by her late older sister, and she would learn the more womanly arts - to sing and to sew and weave, to ride and hunt adequately, and to study the finer aspects of running an efficient household and staff - something that she was also expected to do when she was older. Lexia accepted this with studious determination, and never complained about her workload. As she entered her teens, she began to accompany her father on his regular journeys around the Death-Hold and other trade hubs within the North, learning how the trade works, and familiarizing herself with the importers and traders and merchants who were the hub of what would one day be her own business. Lexia proved herself useful and quietly charming, a shining addition to her father's position.
