## **Description**

### **Appearance**

Loramae is a 19 year old with a small, sturdy frame. They have solid black eyes, and a constantly curious expression and look about their face when taking in the world around them. Their skin is paper white, almost tinged blue,with a dark lightning-like scar stretching up one side of her neck and face. She has long, untamed white hair that is often left down, and often wears a dark purple-blue top hat with her goggles attached. She wears a matching suit most of the time, sometimes under dark armour, and wields a double-bladed scimitar that's pretty much as tall as she is. On the non-scarred side of her neck sits the Mark of the Huntsman. Her left arm is currently missing, replaced by a magic-infused metal prosthetic.

### **Personality**

They're a very antisocial person, becoming horribly awkward in most social situations not revolving around science, magic, or some other scholarly subject. She tends to think and theorise much quicker than can be easily tracked, and will often have to take the time to slow herself down, and re-explain things to the people around her. She has an innate paranoia that people are trying to steal her secrets and her knowledge, and she has a minor hoarding problem. She can be easily distracted or manipulated by the promise of information, and tends to speak without thinking how her words may affect others, oftentimes insulting them as a result. She will often ignore any danger she may be in if she finds herself interested in some new source of knowledge, and she will more often than not choose convoluted and complicated solutions to problems over the more obvious ones.

## **Background**

Loramae was born into a human family in Vraehorat, under the name Levina Cazenave. Growing up her household was full of emotional abuse and manipulation, insulting her for who she was both physically and personality wise. She was made to take on a more 'presentable' form, of a human that looked more like her parents than her natural form, and was punished to varying levels of severity if she was caught without it.

During her preteen years their parents grew tired of them, sending them away to live on a private island in Selenius, where they wouldn't be their parent's problem anymore. There they were free to pursue their own interests and exist in their natural state, spending almost a decade building robots and inventions and doing dangerous experiments. That was where they first met Anahita, a young, seemingly more mature than average water elemental, and the two essentially grew up together. It's also where they made the first prototype for Beaker, their small cube-shaped automaton drone, and continued to evolve his design.

At some point during their teen years, they took on the name Loramae. They also started daring to adventure more around the Republic, going against their parents wishes of staying on the island in Selenius. One of these occasions was when they committed their first murders, when defending a gelatinous cube they later named Oswald. Oswald was brought back to her house, and now lives in her basement.

It was when they were around 19 that they were kidnapped from Selenius by the cult of the Crimson Ocean to be sacrificed to the Abyssal Gods. That's where they met most of the other current Elderfey Champions.

## **Relationships**

### **Anahita**

Loramae and Anahita's relationship started when Loramae was sent to her island home in Selenius. She found Anahita living on the island, in a small pond near her house. The two spent Loramae's teen years together, with Loramae eventually taking a more guardian-like role with the child-like elemental.

### **Apollo Irongear**

Apollo and Loramae bonded over Apollo's skill with robotic creatures and automatons, and Apollo has taken a rather joking approach to his and Loramae's friendship. With him teasing her every so often about her apparent attraction towards his fellow librarian, Harley.

### **Beaker**

Beaker is an automaton Loramae made, when she was longing for companionship in her lonely teen years. The robot tends to be rather protective of Loramae, and she seems to be rather dependant on him emotionally. In Session 4.5, when she sees that he isn't with her, she very quickly becomes distressed. When she returned to Solarius after, he was one of the first things she seeked out.

### **Harley Ardenorth**

Harley and Loramae seemingly have a friendship based in their shared interest of magic and how it works. She seemed to be the librarian Loramae interacts the most with when within the library, and they've been shown to sometimes fluster each other with unexpected compliments.

### **Iraprath Argentaamn**

Iraprath and Loramae seem to be the closest out of the current party, with the two maintaining a close (sometimes bordering on flirty) friendship. Iraprath spoke to Loramae about her identity issues when they visited Selenius in Session 4.5, and since then the two have stuck close to each other's side. Iraprath was also the first to try and defend Loramae against her parents in Session 8. They were Loramae's first kiss, suggesting the idea almost nonchalantly in the Astral Observatory.

### **Rusty Sideris-Matsouka**

Loramae and Rusty are one of the more chaotic friendships in the party, with the two constantly scheming up inventions to make havoc in their daily lives. In the past they've scavenged for materials together, and Rusty seems to go to Loramae with advice on unknown magical objects.

## **Trivia**

* Loramae has many 'useless' skills by adventurers standards. This includes knitting, juggling, morse code, glass art, specifically balancing a sword hilt-first on her head for an obscenely and surprisingly long amount of time, fitting twenty three marshmallows into her mouth, baking but *only* cookies, sewing, and dressmaking.
* She is slightly short-sighted. She needs glasses, but refuses to admit it to this day.
* She once vomited on a stage when she was performing once as a kid, because speaking in front of an audience made her that nervous.
* The chest-plate in their armour doubles as a binder, though they have a tendency of wearing it for much too long
* They have advantage in saving throws against poison, as they consumed many different kinds with the purpose of building up an immunity.
* She became a bloodhunter because she saw the ritual in an old book somewhere, and wanted to try it. This is widely regarded as a stupid thing to do.
* Loramae knows Sign Language, using it to communicate with Anahita, and Binary, which she uses to communicate with Beaker.
