Statistics of Items Here:
A: Appearance
1) Describe yourself as someone meeting you for the first time would see you. (Race?, Gender?, Age?, Size? Coloration? Attractiveness?, Dress? Do you try to emphasize or hide any of these features?)
Naeyla is a fair skinned young woman, right bright red hair, green eyes, and the look of someone who grew up in pretty lavish conditions, with her habit of wearing quite a bit of make-up, and wearing fancy clothing on adventures. She’s fairly attractive, though she can come across a tad bossy at times.
2) What other details would someone notice on a closer look? (Distinguishing marks, birthmarks, scars, etc?)
She has a tendency to wear a lot of blacks and reds, but nothing physical of note that truly distinguishes her.
3) Do you have a distinctive way of speaking or any other mannerisms or memorable behavior?
Naeyla is a little bossy at times if she doesn’t get her way, but overall she can be pleasant if people aren’t trying to confront her or tell her what to do. She has a clear issue with authority. She walks with an air of superiority, but sometimes if she doesn’t want to bother with something, she’ll gladly relent to take the easy job.
B: Birth and Family
1) Where and when were you born? (Also good to include: Do you know your exact birthdate? Did anything unusual (storms, accidents, deaths, etc?) happen about the same time, with which some people might still associate your birthdate?)
Naeyla was born in the city of Rosslund, of the Coutraman Confederacy. She was born on [to be filled when Hopey finishes Calender], an average day in the spring. Nothing terribly unusual happened when she was born, though she is the only member of her mother’s side that has red hair.
2) Who are your parents? (Names, Occupations, Social class, Were they married?, Are they still alive? are all good things to include)
Naeyla’s mother’s name is Rachael Koeing, the daughter of a wealthy merchant. Her father’s name is unknown, though she does know he was a sea captain that managed to…catch the eye of her mother one evening at a party, and after a brief fling, she was made.
3) Do you have any siblings? (If so, it would be good to describe them as you did your parents above.)
Naeyla has no siblings she knows of, though it is possible she might have a few from her father’s habits.
4) Do you know any members of your extended family? (grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins? Also would be good to describe them as above)
The only extended family she’s been exposed to are her grandparents on her mother’s side, Leland and Maria Koeing. Just as she is her mother’s only daughter, her mother is the only child of her grandparent’s union. She has been told she has a Great Uncle who’s still alive, but she’s never met him.
5) How did you get along with your family?
Naeyla enjoys spending time with her grandpa, but can’t really stand her grandmother. She finds her mother burdensome with her desire to enforce etiquette upon her, and attempts to suppress her individuality caused her to rebel.
C: Education and Work
1) Did you serve an apprenticeship in order to learn your current profession/class? For how long?
Naeyla had a fencing teacher as a form of exercise, but it could hardly be considered an apprenticeship.
2) If you were not an apprentice, how did you learn your trade/skills/ect? Formal schooling? Informal Teachers? Self-Taught?
A lot of what Naeyla knows she learned through trial and error. She strongly feels that there is not a skill in the world she can’t master with some practice, and so far, she is living proof of this ideal.
3) Who was your master or teacher? (Race? Gender? Appearance? Personality?) Is he/she still alive? How were you treated? Are/Were you on good terms with your master?
Naeyla had quite a few teachers and tutors growing up, as her family did their best to force her into a book smart woman, but she doesn’t even remember the names of most of them these days.
4) Did your teacher have any other apprentices or students? Who were they? Did you get along?
Naeyla spent time around the daughters of other well to do people, mostly as a way to practice her manners. She rather enjoyed the company of a few girls, but she could hardly be herself around them. She found that most of her peers were either dreamers, hoping for a Prince Charming, or desired to marry someone rich to further increase their inheritance.
5) Due to the rarity of literacy in this setting, how important are books, writings, letters, ect. to your character? Regardless as to whether or not he/she can read?
Naeyla was neutral on the task of learning how to read and write. She understood the value of such a skill, but she would hardly consider learning it to be a fun or exciting time.
6) Do you have a job other than "adventurer"? Who do you work for? How much of your time does this require?
Not at the moment. She wouldn’t mind finding further employment doing something in her downtime.
D: Friends
1) Who were your friends as a child? As an adolescent? As an adult?
Naeyla had two friends growing up. One was a girl named Carol, human like her, and the other was a halfling by the name of Ruby. Carol was a year older than she was, and actually got married when she was 16. Ruby, as far as Naeyla knows, was courting a young landowner when she last spoke with her.
2) How many of these people are still alive? How many are you still friends with?
Naeyla’s not talked to either in some half a year, but she considers them both friends, as they’re both currently alive.
3) Who is/was your best friend? What is the most memorable thing that the two of you ever did together?
Naeyla considers both of her childhood friends to be her best friends. Beyond this, she has made friends with the martial artist Belle since coming to Avalon. The most memorable thing she once did with Belle was have a very enjoyable picnic with her in the park one day. On top of this, she’s made bonds with Abby and Galen, among other people since being in the city.
4) What do you look for in a friend?
Naeyla likes loyalty and trustworthiness. She also admits to being attracted to strong people, either physically or morally.
5) Have you ever been in love? Was it reciprocated? Do you have (or have you had) a boy-/girlfriend, a lover, or a spouse? More than one? Are you looking for one? What do you look for in a romantic partner?
Naeyla would freely admit to having had romantic feelings for Belle Hibiki at one time, though Belle didn’t return them in kind. She’s not been with anyone since, though she’s open to the idea of love. As said before, she likes strong people, physically or mentally, though she’s somewhat pansexual at the core. She’s also highly monogamous.
E: Attitudes and Beliefs
1) What are your beliefs about religion and the afterlife? Do you follow any particular god or gods? What appeals to you most about this religion? Least?
Naeyla doesn’t really follow a god or religion. She feels that its best to be nice to everyone when you can, and to value personal freedom when it’s
being taken away or threatened. She feels that as long as she does her best as a person, she’ll end up somewhere okay when she dies.
2) Where do spirits of nature, the elements and the dead fit into these beliefs?
Naeyla just doesn’t care about nature enough to really think about spirits of nature. She rather enjoys the sea, but if asked about it, she’d say that spirits have a place in the world, just like the elements. She finds the dead to be amusing more than anything, if they’re undead of course. She doesn’t poke at things if they don’t poke at her first, otherwise the world has room for all things.
3) What gods, religions, or priesthoods will you have nothing to do with?
Naeyla will not deal with anyone or anything that advocates strict rules and social order above personal freedom.
4) What is your moral code? Under what conditions will you kill? Steal? Lie? Do you have a personal code of behavior about violence? Magic? Sex? Dealing with Evil Beings?
Naeyla feels that it is best to hold life and freedom in high regard. Naeyla will kill to preserve her own life, and her own freedom, simple as that. She will also kill those who have wronged others, or plan to do so in the future. She will steal from those who have stolen themselves. She has no issue with magic, as long as it’s not used on her in a negative fashion. Sex is something between two consenting people who love each other! And evil beings deserve the same respect as anyone else unless you know for a fact they plan to hurt people.
5) How committed are you to seeing through something (a task, quest, bargain, etc) that you have started?
Naeyla is an objectivist in many regards. Her word is her bond, and if she says she’s going to do something, she’ll do it.
6) How important are the following to you?: Power, Wealth, Fame, Honor, Family, Friends, Love, Knowledge, Religion, Your job? To what lengths would you go to acquire or preserve these things?
Naeyla cares not for power, wealth, fame, honor, or family if they don’t have her wellbeing and individuality in mind. Friends are to be highly regarded, and love to be treasured. Knowledge is only worth anything if it can benefit you in some manner. Religion is pointless, unless it brings the person following said religion hope. She would like a job…She would willingly give up her life for the things she holds in high regards.
7) How often do you remember your dreams? How much attention do you pay to them? Do they inspire you? Guide you? Inspire You? Warn you? Frighten You?
Naeyla sleeps like a rock, and doesn’t recall any of her dreams.
8) What is your attitude towards magic? People who use it? Fearsome monsters? The unknown in general?
Magic is cowardly. If you can’t do something with your own two hands, why do it at all? The only people she doesn’t have issue with in regards to magic, are those who are magically inclined because of their race, such as dragons or the fey.
F: Edges and Flaws
1) What are you especially good at? What sets you apart from the rest of the world? A skill? An unusual knack? A certain flair of style or wit?
Naeyla is very good at two things: finding a good place to cut someone, and fashion. The second one might be subjective, but she knows what looks good and what doesn’t!
2) What flaws do you have? Bad habits? Obsessions? Terrible (or embarrassing) secrets?
Naeyla can be a bit bossy, and can act spoiled in the worst situations. This might be an after effect of growing up in a rich household. She is also slightly vain about her looks.
3) Do you have any enemies? How much trouble do those conflicts cause you?
No major enemies to speak of, but she doesn’t really like Sam Dray. But that’s mostly because he boinks Belle. Ditto for Grimm.
G: Likes and Dislikes
1) What do you love? (People? Places? Creatures? Kinds of Food? Activities? Subjects?)
Freedom, time by the ocean, boating, hugging cute things, her hair, bananas, and swords.
2) What do you hate? How do you typically react to these hated things?
Horses named Sam Dray, pears, being naked in front of others.
3) What do you fear? What is your worst nightmare?
Her biggest fear, is one day going bald. She loves her hair, and would hate to lose it.
H: Miscellaneous
1) Describe your first encounter with a nonhuman monster. (Not counting player races, animals, etc that you grew up with, but feel free to mention them too)
Her first encounter with a nonhuman monster was one of her first jobs as an adventurer. She was hired to help clear out Sahuagins attacking a port dock. She killed them in a nice bloody mess.
2) If you are a spellcaster, describe your first experience with using magic. What were the circumstances? Were you expecting it?
No magic here!
3) If you have an animal companion or familiar, describe how you acquired it. Describe this ally's personality, and its attitude towards you. (Loyal unto death, mischievous, lazy, etc)
No pets. She’s not much of a pet person.
4) If you have any unusual possessions, describe how you acquired them. Is their value practical, monetary, sentimental or some combination of these?
Can’t say she has any unusual possessions, though her hairclip collection has quite a few interesting pieces. She was given them on her 15th birthday, each of them in the shape of a particular butterfly.
5) Please describe your characters general background, this may be any length you wish, but at least one paragraph. You may use any or all of the information above, or new information not covered. (Encouraged)
Naeyla was born into an interesting world. Her father was a sea captain, her mother a daughter of a well-off merchant that her father so happened to seduce. As such, she was raised by her mother's family, having never met her father, and from an early age, was taught the ins and outs of manners, etiquette, and on how to marry someone worth her time, as to not repeat her mother's mistakes. However, Naeyla herself really cared not for such things, having little interest in growing up to just be some man's eye-candy, and fostered her own hobbies.
First, she took an early love of sailing. Even though she never met her father, few would ever be able to doubt his blood in her veins. She knew the inner workings of a boat from the age of 10, and although her mother was rather against such interests, she did feel that it was nice for Naeyla to have a hobby. As she grew older, she grew interested in fencing and card games, developing an early taste for gambling behind her mother's back. But she was rather careful to do what her mother wished, learning more about make-up and meeting with suitors when requested to.
But Naeyla eventually realized that she was not living the life of freedom that she so badly desired, and one day, in the dead of night, left her family's estate, on a quest of self-discovery.
