Alana Ammakyll

Aka: Lana (mostly to her brother)

Age 19

**Appearance**

Long wavy white-blond hair, sort of chubby, very clear skin and bright smile. Really lovely laugh. Most people do not notice her until she makes herself known and then they really notice her. Green eyes with hints of gold that catch in the light.

**History**

Alana and her twin brother Caro grew up in a noble household with much social interaction and education. Both are extremely bright and charismatic individuals, though in a more quiet and alluring way. The first time Alana realized her brother Caro could (and possibly would if he ever needed to) kill her was when she was six and they lost a festival sack race they’d entered together; that evening he tripped her down the grand staircase of their manor and only went to his room to play when she began to cry for help for her broken arm.

As they grew older, Caro was less inclined to retaliate with violence for things that had already happened. He liked to get his way and would do what it took and he liked to play little games but he found displays like the staircase incident distasteful. In a way, Alana believed Caro loved her. When she was around to play his games and to entertain him, he wouldn’t do anything too awful and he found her urge to clean up his messes amusing. So as long as Alana never went too far from Caro, things were alright, although she became a bit numb to dead pets or heartbroken suitors begging her for Caro’s attention or opening backdoors so her brother could sneak in at night from wherever he went.

Both Alana and Caro enjoy music and in the circles they frequent, most consider them to be prodigies. Caro plays the piano and Alana plays the flute. Both have lovely voices and Caro would spend hours teaching Alana complicated harmonies to his melodies, which was fun until she made one too many mistakes and she later found a precious doll or hers broken into pieces or a favorite book burned to a crisp.

When the twins turned 18, they were invited to study music at a prestigious academy. Shocking everyone but Alana, Caro refused to offer in favor of running away to forge his own path. Shocking Alana, Caro demanded she continue to study music instead of stay with him. Alana, convinced she needed to stay near her brother to both protect him from the world and protect the world from him, told him she would never let him alone. He agreed to let her follow him to wherever but in the weeks following, disappeared without a trace. Alana’s main goal is to find Caro and clean up whatever messes he may have made.

Alana can also be strikingly cruel and ruthless because she believes that what she is meant to do is to work with her brother to reduce harm and if she needs to cause harm on the way there, then so be it. She also has learned from watching him, how to get what she wants in the fastest way possible.

Alana's family owns and manages land.

**Sophie**

When the twins were 15, Alana started forming a relationship with one of her servants, another girl around the same age named Sophie. While Alana isn’t a particularly open person, she was attracted to Sophie’s gentleness and care and the two girls began rendezvousing in the gardens late at night to mostly just sit in silence and hold each other or kiss. Alana didn’t share much about her life, but Sophie told her about her childhood growing up poor and how her job supported her whole family, including her sick father. Alana would sing to her and at times, Sophie would try to have conversations with Alana about Caro. Most people never noticed Caro’s cruelty but Sophie had picked up that something was off. One day Caro approached Alana and told her he knew of her relationship with Sophie and that she had a choice: either to break Sophie’s heart and never speak intimately with her again or to allow the secret about their relationship to get out, causing Sophie to lose her precious job. Alana made up her mind and missed her meeting with Sophie she had arranged that evening. After that, she only spoke to Sophie as a servant and because of Sophie’s financial situation, Sophie couldn’t leave her position. The two remained cold and distant to each other all the way up until Alana left the Aubert manor to search for her brother.
