[LUCIA]

REVENGE LEAVES YOU [b]COLD, SO BROKEN AND LOST. THERE'S NO COMFORT FOUND THERE & IT'S NOT THE PEACE OF MIND I'M SEARCHING FOR. BUT OF COURSE, ANGER IS BETTER THAN NOTHING, ISN'T IT? ———————— lucia averill / order of the cobalt soul / biography & storage

[LUCIA]

GENERAL — steeled is my soul
lucia pallas averill | hates nicknames
female | she/her
adult, does not keep track of age | birth date forgotten
wandering scholar | holds no rank
→ the name lucia is an Italian name meaning "gentle light", pallas is an epithet often given to the goddess Athena ( war, wisdom, strategy, crafts )

IMPORTANT NOTES — my blood gone cold
annie leonhardt ( temporary ) | voiceclaim - mara sov
→ a member of the order of the cobalt soul, worshippers of the Knowing Mistress
→ arcane research, looking into the nature of arcana and it's effects upon the physical world
→ is mostly likely very hostile and blunt, not approachable most of the time

PHYSICAL APPEARANCE — i'm in control
lioness w/ mutations | born as a housecat
80% | still healing ritual carvings & aether sickness
what was once a regular alabaster lioness has been warped by Lucia's own experiments. There are countless runes carved into her skin, all done with a regularity and precise detail that comes from practice, cut shallow enough that they can heal and then be redone when she needs to. her eyes are a too bright blue, unnatural and faintly glowing that seem bore into whomever she chooses to look at. her blood has a slightly off-colouration to it, a little brighter than usual with a partial faint glow to it as a residue from leftover aether exposure.

PERSONALITY — fearless creatures, we all learn to fight the reaper
true neutral
there are people that few wish to meet in their lives, abrasive and self-centred and narcissistic. lucia is everyone of those traits, cold, aloof and cruel. she cares little for the lives and concerns of others, and cares little about the well being of herself, throwing herself into research or using herself a test subject. she tends towards a distant, clinical approach and views those who can't hold "intelligent" conversation as unworthy of her time. she is drawn to smarter people, but in the sense that she has a burning need to assert herself as the smartest in the room as it were. whilst yes, she is intelligent, her empathy and people skills are severely underdeveloped and struggles emotionally to form connections and realise why she should care about other people.
→ intelligent, dedicated, quick witted, manipulative, provocative, callous, spiteful

RELATIONS — can't defeat her
npc x npc ( abandoned ) | ???
bisexual | sleeping her way to the top
no friends | probably an enemy to you
neutral towards - | dislikes p much everyone
→ lucia is incredibly difficult to befriend, if your character would want to on the off chance they don't find her intolerable
→ lucia is easy to fuck, but she has issues based on relationships that stop her from seeking romance, not that anyone would want to date her

INTERACTION — so instead i'll have to be her!
physically strong | mentally strong
will fight | will kill
knows how to defend herself well | has a fondness for blunt weapons
powers | attacks in color here
→ mention @subaccount or @mainaccount here

[LUCIA]

[align=center][div style="width: 540px; text-align: justify; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 1.4;"]Born as the unwanted daughter of a whirlwind romance turned bitter, Lucia's earliest memories are those of a negligent mother. She knows not her name, remembers the sound of anything but her insults and cannot recall her face. Her clear memories come from her days being taken in by an elderly herbalist, who named her Lucia Pallas Averill.

Her name was Callisto, an old witch that raised the young feline with a critical eye and pushing the young Lucia to chase after knowledge. It helped that Callisto had found an apt young student, and although the two were never affectionate or close, they fell into an easy rhythm. Lucia learnt all that she could under her mentor, although she was interested in more than what Callisto could offer.

Callisto was no saint, but Lucia wanted to see if she could bend the world to her will. She had nothing to chase but this in her own mind. Not only that, Callisto taught her to see others as inferiors, blowing up Lucia's already sizeable ego into something that became her definition. She was smarter than anyone else, of course she was, and she was going to find a way to bend the laws of arcana to her own will.

When Callisto passed of old age, Lucia left the small group that the old witch served and started to experiment. It was during her experiments she was drafted into the Order of the Cobalt Soul, an order of monks that were interested in the pursuit of knowledge and preserving the truth, fighting against tyrants and spreading the truth across the world. Whilst their manifesto of helping others made Lucia question their beliefs, she was happy to be inducted into an order that allowed her access to the libraries of the Knowing Mistress, secrets that were beyond the grasp of anyone not chosen by the Goddess.
