Cecilia Spencer

**Cecilia** is a noblewoman born in Catania, presently in Darkwall and likely to end up dead there as well, before one day decaying elsewhere. She is played by Rachelle.

## History

Cecilia is the child of Elizabeth and Michael, who both lived in Cronard, and taught her many of her initial skills. Michael as a locksmith and maker of many mechanical devices, clocks were a particular favourite and Cecilia often found herself looking at these devices with interest in how they worked. With this, she would often try to enter into them so she could test to see how good they were - because with a slightly absent-minded father, what's the harm in trying them out as a test run?

The answer is not that much. Except when the mother is a very cunning woman, who enjoys spending her time studying those devices to test them and see how difficult they are to break in. So in the same way Cecilia tooko her father's intellectual interests in locks and mechanical devices, she also took the cunning side of her mother, and would find herself able to get into locks her father had made, and this is about the same time when she would decide to make use of her skills, in other ways.

But not as a thief. Never as a thief - she's a locksmith, not a burglar. Although, you may think otherwise...

She had spent sometime in Cronard, and had developed and worked on her skills for quite a bit. She however grew bored, and went on to see what she could find. And from there, she would confess that she never knew how much of an interest in carrying on the family craft. She had other relatives, one of the might carry on in her place. And she would start her own trade, in a way.

She would later find herself in Catania, and would while there find herself on boats and find ways to get herself on there, deciding that she'd just use her cunning side to get free rides and do what she wanted. Who's gonna care about the woman who's a stowaway? Not many, but they *did* want her to join in on card games, and she would learn all about it while sailing about and finding new places about, which would give her an eternal wanderlust.

When she did come back, she'd found she had changed too much to want to remain in one place. She would try to ply her trade, but she was eternally drawn to the dagger, the fist she'd used in fights, and her love of breaking and entering. Thus brings her to now...

## Appearance

Cecilia is reasonably tall, but quite muscular and flexible. When on display, her muscles tend to show off quite well but they're more than for show, she can lift quite a bit as well. She has bright red hair, bright red eyes and is often seen with it long and down her back. She does wear some small makeup, just a little to prime herself ready so others have little reason to insult her.

Her most frequent outfit is her courtly attire, which has on it three pockets for her tools - her lockpicks, flint and steel and a magnifying glass. Doesn't hurt to be prepared.

## Personality

Sly, cunning, curious and friendly. To her, respect is the ultimate currency and she bases her interactions with others off how others react to her. Those too strongly law-abiding she'll take a disliking to, but those who can bend the rules she'll like.
