Tovia Weston

**Overview**

"*And let me make this clear, this IS a war between you and I.*"
―Tovia, speaking to Owen Fogo.

**Tovia Weston** was born in Netami, the sector of Envy. She lived with her brothers, Ophir and Melech Weston, until Ophir was selected to be Rhea Fayer's husband. Shortly after, Ophir found a way for them to flee the republic. They successfully escaped, and now Tovia resides in Taraxacum.

## Appearance

Tovia's hair is described as being manelike. Her dark, almost black hair often whips around her when it is not tied into a braid or tossed over her shoulder. Ormr Keres noted that her brown gaze burned with the small, fiery spark that most Nether citizens have in their eyes. She is typically donned in comfortable attire that allows her to move around in the event that she must suddenly explore or fight.

She avoids wearing red and typically opts for black and dark brown instead, especially since the darker hues have the further benefit of gathering sunlight and warming her up, making her feel more comfortable in Taraxacum's cooler climate. She tries to wear long sleeves to conceal several things, as well. Her body is covered head to toe in long scars, and her upper arm has the branding of the Nether.

## Personality

In Netami's brutal city, Tovia was forced to be quiet and obedient. The only way for her to survive was to listen to her brothers, for each piece of advice might make the difference between life and death. Her feisty nature shone through in her insistence in sparring with Melech, or demanding to get a job as soon as she was of age. However, for the most part, she didn't want to be a burden and made herself as small as possible. As soon as she arrived in Taraxacum, though, her true spunk began to flourish. She grew more outspoken and craved independence in the first few weeks on Earth, especially since she felt she had more responsibility for Ophir upon Melech's passing. She has never turned back.

Tovia never does anything halfheartedly, and her expression is typically one of intense joy, pure fury, or utter despair. It is very clear to see how she is feeling just by looking at her, for she has a very poor ability to conceal her expressions. She is very opinionated, and when she is asked for her thoughts, she makes her stance incredibly clear. Her ambition may be her fatal flaw, as her persistence, determination, and one-track mind often causes her to get stuck on dangerous ideas. Despite this, she only bites off challenges that she genuinely thinks she can chew. Most of the time, the challenges she is most determined to overcome relate to the wellbeing of others, especially those she cares about.

Despite her deep-rooted loyalty and affections for those she is close to, they must fight tooth and nail to get Tovia to listen to them. She is outrageously stubborn, and her gut instincts always rule her decisions in times of uncertainty.

## Trivia

-Tovia was never meant to be relevant. However, in a very in-character way, she forced herself into prominence within Taraxacum.

-Her kill count currently sits at 1, from her run-in with Ferris Cairo. She refuses to tell anyone else what happened on that day and attempts to keep the cruel nature of his death a secret. She is ashamed of how much she enjoyed ending a Nether official's life.
