## History

I was born and raised by my birth parents, who I remember nothing of except for that my father has night blue hair and my mother blonde, for 15 years at the night court in prythian, until I fell through an open wyrdegate. I spent the next 14 years trying to find my way back home but gave up when I forgot what my parents faces looked like, and lived on the streets in a village outside of Doranelle for 10 years until Maeve sent her army marching through it. I then migrated to the western wastes where I met a witch named asterin who adopted me after her first child was killed. She raised me with the help of two other witches named sorrel and vesta and then 10 years later she married gavriel who already had a son aedion and a long lost daughter arreth.

## Personality

I’m super protective and loyal and don’t easily trust people. Even though I don’t fully trust someone before I get to properly know them I try to make everyone feel welcome and loved. I am kind and determined and only people who I am closest with come to know that I am actually a really shy and passionate person.

## Physical Description

Facial: lots of freckles over a semi-tan face, Thin eyebrows, long eyelashes, rosy red cheeks, grey eyes with a sea green brim, slim nose, bright pink lips.

hair: bright blonde with died night blue highlights to match the colour of my birth parents hair (the only detail I remember of them), just above shoulder length and wavy.

build: slim waist, long slender legs, strong biceps, strong thighs, calluses hands and feet from lots of combat.

## Fighting style and powers

when I fight, because I’m a powerful shapeshifter compared to most (for some unknown reason that is probably tied to my birth parents), I shift through different forms to throw my opponents off and it’s always random so you can never spot a pattern. When my magic depletes I am great with daggers because when I was raised by mum, her sorrel and vesta taught me how to fight close combat by getting me to shift into an iron teeth form and teaching me to use the iron nails in combat. This made using daggers easy for me. I’m also really good at thieving because nox has been teaching me, and he says that if I keep practicing I might be better than him. Usually before I start my shift- fighting I fly over head in my Illyrian form and fling 1 out of 5 15-dagger sets I always keep on me at the enemy. I have a prized weapon which is a dagger that I had when I fell through the wyrd gate from prythian. It’s name is grígori kardiá (translates to swift heart in Greek) and it is an Illyrian dagger. It has a navy blue leather-wrapped handle with white flecks to represent the night sky, and I try to save it till the end of the battle to use because I don’t want to risk losing the only thing I have left from prythian.

## Pets

Whilst I was journeying west I found a small injured asterian horse. She has a chestnut brown coat and I named her almas (Arabic translation is diamond. Pronounced al-ma-see). When I found almas she was 2, and a few weeks later I met asterin who let me keep her after I was adopted. I trained almas to be battle ready, and me and the horse have a super close relationship that is said to rival Manon and abroxos’s. No one except for me and my family can tell for sure wether almas is about to rip you to shreds or prance around like a goofy smol bean. Almas has a super strong resilience and brave soul that can’t be broken easily, as well as bright blue eyes that shine and sparkle in the light, which are the reasons she is named diamond.

## tattoos

over my heart I have a terrasen knot like my brother aedion except, instead of the names of terrasen’s court, it has the names of my family (arreth, Kenya, ruby, sage, Cecile, Aedion, asterin and gavriel) written in runes within it. My terrasen knot tattoo is in the traditional terrasen green and silver. I also the have the night court insignia on my back between my shoulders with the words ‘the night will forever shine’ written around it. I don’t remember what age I got it but i know it was when I still lived in prythian (which I have little memory of). The only thing I remember about the meaning of the words is that they symbolise my connection to the night court and it has something, that I can’t seem to remember, to do with my birth parents.

## occupation

my main occupation is working as an assassin for my families kingdoms and any high paying nobles (but I do it for free for people living in extremely abusive households). I was trained by my cousin aelin on how to be an assassin and I specialise in close up assassination as well as poison assassination. When I am not being an assassin I am Chaol and Yrene’s go-to baby sitter.

## clothing style

For some unknown reason I love fighting leathers and in all of my outfits you will see that there are different elements of fighting leathers incorporated somewhere. You will also see me in flying leathers when I shift into my Illyrian form. I prefer pants and shorts to dresses, but don’t mind a denim skirt every now and then. My clothing style can be described as boyish, denim and leather. You will never find me in clothing that makes moving with speed and precision difficult. I wear knee, black fighting boots, which have secret compartments for my daggers and poisons. When i wear denim you will most likely see me in my favourite denim jacket, that i had the same image as my tattoo from Pythian embroidered onto
