Fey is one of the player characters of Arc 3, and played by Sedona. Her name is a pun on the word "famous".

## Description

Fey is a half-elf with purple hair and purple freckles. Purple is also her favorite color, and it is quite visible. Her clothing is usually as purple as the rest of her appearance, and she wears fine silks, specifically ordered from Bombyx. The magic item she has at the beginning of Arc 3 is called The Courtesan's Claws, a collection of nail polish in different colors with which she can deal extra damage with her unarmed strikes.

She is not only adept at music, but fighting as well. Her main instruments are string instruments, especially the lyre and lute, but she could probably improvise something on most instruments. She also seems to be talented at drawing, and is currently working on her pottery skills.

Fey lives in Tyle in a lofted and beautifully decorated apartment with a lovely view over the city.

## Personality

Fey is very good at talking, enjoys it, and actively searches out the company of the high society to get access to their gossip. She spends a lot of time with noble people and has made a good amount of connections to people of great influence, even to the royal family, especially Princess Isadora. While she is good friends with the princess and has attended many parties of the royal family, she is not used to talking to the Queen herself. Other close friends of hers are Sher'il, a noblewoman from court, and Count Michael von Rainier.

Despite her special interest in the gossip from court, she does not discriminate against people from lower social backgrounds. Generally, she just loves talking and will do so with anybody who is willing to listen. This leads to her being a familiar face to many people, and a friend to nobles as well as their guards or members of staff.

Her reputation is very important to Fey, and while she is willing to put it on the line for her friends or important missions, she still tries to avoid ruining it as best as she can. This sometimes leads to some minor tensions between her and Bombyx, who generally does not care about the opinion of others and at times even likes to tease Fey about it. Those tensions can usually be resolved quite fast, and the two are good friends nonetheless.

While she is an adventurer and not scared of a fight, she can be a bit delicate and/or dramatic at times. For situations like that, especially breakdowns, she uses deep breaths and positive self-talk to calm herself down.

She usually follows the rules, both general rules or laws and rules of etiquette. As long as nobody finds out, she is comfortable with her friends not doing that, though.

## Background

She is the daughter of Richard Lovejoy, but nobody knows that, not even the two of them - she just knows that her father is a Lovejoy, but not which one. Her mother Verum probably knows that Richard is her father, but never told her. Her childhood home is in a rather humble part on the outskirts of Glaceria, where she grew up and knows her way around. She left home and went adventuring at age 18.

During the time between the first adventure of the party and Arc 3, she made herself the PR person of the party. Disappointed by the lack of reception they received from the public, she started to tell their stories and sing songs about them. Additionally, she created posters of their battle scenes and business cards for every party member, which she hands out on their behalf. She is focused on getting the party known and does not really care that much whether the others have the same plans.

She also had a lot of performances as a bard during that time, and she invited her party members to every one of them, even though they were multiple times a week.

## Character Development

During Arc 3, Fey first puts her relationship to the royal family on the line when she interrupts a very personal moment between the Queen and Princess Sybilla that was not meant for her to be seen. Later, she reestablishes herself as a close friend when she brings Diarmad to Sybilla who manages to heal her.

Fey expresses her interest in pursuing a romantic relationship with someone, but does not say more about it as long as there is nothing more solid. While she tries to avoid the advances of Duke Zapp Chadwick, she seems to be interested in starting a romantic relationship with her friend Count Michael von Rainier.

After the events of Arc 3, Fey plans on spending more time with her mother, who, for a short moment, had died during the final battle. She wants to hold a private funeral for her friend Sher'il who also died but could not be reincarnated or revivified. After that, she will pursue her quest in getting the party known by composing more songs, maybe even using her newfound pottery skills to create figurines. Additionally, she hopes to reconnect with the queen and the princesses.
