Lita

**Name:** Lita Attar

**Physical Characteristics:** Female, 24, average height (~64 inches), slender build. Long auburn hair, usually braided over one shoulder. Lightish skin, olive tones. Hazel green eyes, large, widely spaced. Rounded face with pointed chin.

**Investiture:** Hereditary Twinborn: A-Tin, F-Brass; Hemalurgic spike granting Pewter Allomancy

**Skills:** Intermediate poison mixing (and other apothecary skills), Skilled at covert surveillance/spycraft but never formally trained. She is Smart, above-average.

**Equipment:** Metal vials, brass arm-bands (2) worn constantly and three brass ear cuffs (not pierced), 2 on right ear, 1 on left. Wears glasses when not burning tin, keeps them on her person at all times. She is also in possession of a very interesting gold Coin which she keeps with her constantly.

**Weakness:** Has very poor eyesight when not burning tin and she requires glasses. She taps brass when burning tin to avoid feeling cold, which means she is unaccustomed to temperature sensitivity while burning tin. Has no combat skills, is quite small. Lita has a severe prejudice against Terris people, stemming from her mother abandoning her, despite being half Terris herself.

**Family:** Mother not in picture but is Terris, father is named Conrad, lives in Elendel, no siblings she knows of, no children or spouse

**Home Planet:** Scadrial

**Backstory:** Lita was born illegitimately to Conrad Attarre and her unknown mother in one of Elendel’s poorer Octants. Her mother, ashamed that she had conceived with someone who wasn’t Terris, refused to acknowledge her daughter and cut the both of them off. Conrad operated a Soothing parlour, and when Lita was revealed to be a Twinborn, her father enlisted her to work alongside him, keeping tin-enhanced eyes and ears on the patrons without them knowing. No one knew she was a Tineye, believing her to be only a Brass Ferring, and her large spectacles kept everyone off their guard. After she caught one of her father’s patrons conducting illicit business in the Soothing parlour, she decided to offer her services as a Tineye to him. This worked for a while, but the man eventually decided to try to frame Conrad for the illicit business he himself was conducting.

Lita poisoned the man and made sure everyone knew it was her work, leaving her father free of accusation. She fled Elendel, heading south until she met a group worldhoppers. They offered to pay her to fill several heat Excisors, and invited her to join them if she wanted to. When the group passed through the Alleyverse she decided to stay. She changed her name from Attarre to Attar, hoping she could blend into the sea of faces and peoples in Alleycity and start over. Prior to joining the Dark Alley, she took odd jobs, filled heat Excisors, and mixed the occasional poison. Lita also sometimes “professionally eavesdropped” and conducted white-collar espionage.

During a trip to the Odd Job Tavern in search of work, Lita met Laurelai and was recruited into the Dark Alley. Later, during the assault on Plasmacore, Lita received a spike granting her Pewter Allomancy.

**Guild:** Dark Alley

**Personality:** Friendly, charming, cunning, ambitious, and perceptive. Lita loves secrets, and will do anything she can to ferret out any hidden knowledge she thinks will give her some power or edge. She does not trust easily, but she does enjoy company, so she simply does not reveal much about herself. After a childhood of relative scarcity, Lita loves the finer things in life. Because she grew up with her Soother father, she does not have an inherent wariness/dislike of emotional allomancy. She loves lavish parties and events, and will jump at any chance to attend them. Lita is somewhat self-absorbed, but cares deeply about her inner circle.
