Cynthia Gardia

*"Who do you do when the apprentice messes up? You get me."*

*"A good clay golem starts with the first dig of the shovel."*

## History

Cynthia has been living in Duskhaven for a few years now. She came from somewhere else that she does not talk about or maybe does not even know. She started working for the local wizard as a golem sculptor and that is what keeps her afloat.

Cynthia had no notable exploits as an adventurer as of now.

## Appearance

Cynthia stands at a rather unusual 6ft tall. She has a strong worker's body with soft definition and an athetlic-fit build. She has long thick white hair that has a hint of platinum blonde in it. Slightly pointed ears and crystal-blue eyes adorn her face as well as a rather cute nose. She usually carries herself with a resting bitch-face, but it quickly vanishes for a small smile when she talks to someone.

At work she wears rather dirty, but sturdy clothing that can withstand rough and dirty environments, while she tries to go more into a fancy direction with her free-time clothes. She likes to shift her weight to her left side when she stands still.

## Personality

Cynthia is confident in her ability to grow, but thinks of herself as imperfect in every way. Her craft could be better, she could do more, there was always a small things that felt bad to her about the things she did. Yet she can be confident. The wizard she works for told her that it is better to finish something imperfectly and correct it afterwards than to never do a thing at all. She will try and fail and be confident all the way through.

She is very open about her sexuality and very non-chalant about it. She can handle herself pretty well and thinks that communication about what you want is important to find happiness.

## Loves

Cynthia loves a good drink. Her favorite is honey-liquor with milk or sweet wines. Her favorite food is a kale with some hearty meat in autumn or salmon. She also loves crunchy snacks like nuts and dried fruit. Cynthia dislikes dried meat or anything that you just chew for over a minute and it still feels raw. She dislikes sour drinks, but has a small growing love for salty things.

Cynthia is bi- and pansexual. Her favorite hair colour is blue or pink and she likes it if her partners are fit, admiring feats of endurance, strength or dedication.

## Fears

Like most living things, Cynthia fears severe harm to herself or those she likes. She has a fear of getting sick or ill as she has seen people being left behind when they got sick. She is very careful about her eyes as she has quite the weak eyesight in bright-light. She doesn't like insects and is insecure about never becoming a notable or powerful individual.

## Hobbies

Cynthia actually loves her job. Building something with your own hands is pretty satisfying and so she has taken up a few craft skills that will help her once she has become a real wizard. Besides finding fulfilment in her work she loves to play party games and attending public performances. She is in desperate need of a real hobby.

## Family

Cynthia does not know her parents. She was abandoned by them at an early age and given to an orphanage. However, her parents do exist.

Her father, Joshua Gardia, is a high-ranking officer for the forces of vampires, having been turned a few years after 'abandoning' Cynthia. In truth he was leading a small resistance cell to fight against the oppression.

Her mother, Lilia Gardia, was a tailor turned resistance spy that was sadly caught on duty and 'killed'. She was turned into a vampire thrall, which lead to Cynthia's father sending their daughter far away from the city where they were caught.
