    Personality and Abilities

    Viewed by Others. When many see Paisley for the first time they can note her extremely shy and closed off person. She will hide behind those who are her elders and protectors seeking to sit upon their back and she seeks the safety of them instead. When surrounded by more than a few strangers people can see that she is easily scared by the mere presence of them having to mentally check herself or else she will simply up and leave. Despite being afraid of strangers she can still be seen as extremely charitable while still pertaining a pure line of suspicion as she will still seek to help and aid those around her even if she does not know them. Other might also see how she craves the attention of those around her wanting to be in the center of this though at other times they can simply see this as her following behind like a sheep as she does not know any better. She commonly finds herself following and imitating those around her. After living in the slums for a while and experiencing various people, people might notice how she is extremely quiet and isolated now after a great deal of mistreatment during her time as a young lady. While she is not so easy to scare due to her seeing quite a lot of evil things, people might notice she is less likely to get involved with something going on in front of her and even less likely to socialize. Because of these people acting horrible to her she is no longer Charitable, instead seeking to greedily benefit herself. The suspicion level has increased over the newest years as people will notice with her closed off attitude she is no longer real nor trusting of their actions. As such, her craving of attention has been completely lost as she would rather be left alone. She no longer follows after others, instead doing whatever the fuck she wants.

    Viewed by Herself. Vinette is rather unclear on her stance with herself as she still has a lot of time to find herself. At one point she thinks she dislikes this person and another time she does not really understand her own feelings. The best way to put how she thinks about herself is that she’s immature and still has a lot of growing to do. A very common thing she notices about herself is how wishy-washy her emotions and actions can be towards people and believes she needs to straighten up her act and mature. She really wants to better herself for those around her so she can actually help them while at other times she is just sprinting for a free loaf of bread instead of thinking far ahead of herself. Whilst growing up surrounded by things she didn't know about she has realized how much she needs to become clear in order to move forward through the chaotic life she pertains. As such, she has sought to understand her own feelings and that has made her think of herself as an empty person. Now, Vinette has lost most immaturity replacing it with a harsh exterior as she herself believes it is the only way she can better herself and survive.

    Friends and Family. When around friends and family Paisley will lose her shy exterior exchanging it for a very bubbly one. Instead she will seek to ride those who are close to her like a piggyback and will also act much less greedily towards them actually willing to share candies with them. When she is surrounded by those she loves she will beam constantly acting much like a very well behaved person and someone who has been groomed into success as she lacks the want nor need to manipulate those close to her as they will likely help her anyways.She seeks to spend much more time on those who are close to her by talking with them more frequently and even seeking out to give them alchemical concoctions or heal them if need be. With her friends and family Vinette will be extremely short with them telling them exactly what's on her mind, she might be a bit more domineering, though no longer has a shy side to her. She will instead approach them more likely, and she'll still act well behaved. What has changed is she might look at them less harshly and try to not actively mess with them.

    Morality. As morality goes Vinette has an okay moral sensing but it is primarily restricted to whomever she hangs around and she will generally follow their moral compass following by example. She does draw a very fine line when things are done against her or towards those who she likes but can sometimes lessen the line upon someone who has been rude to her or personally offended her and this is due to her slightly flexible morality based on circumstance and affect. Sometimes she can be seen as morally grey while other times it is purely defined by those she is hanging around and their own morals. Vinette's morals, due to being surrounded by particularly evil people as such has shifted to a more depressive and self-serving style. While she still strongly believes in morality based on circumstance, the circumstances will rarely be in favor of the other person.

    • Important Figures
    • Akil ‘Pa’, ‘Akie’. One of the first people to ever protect Vinette, Akil was someone who took her in as his own almost like a daughter as together they became a very dangerous force. She used her alchemy and brains to strengthen him and guide the being as he used his superior combat skills to support her. With an unwavering loyalty between the both of them the two bonded stronger together than Guilloxe’s glaunt and anything else. Even today she still considers him to be her father. @KirbyTheVampire
    • Eyian Strone, ‘Honey-Bunches’, ‘Eyie’. Possibly the fourth person to take her in but the second most important person in her life, Eyian happened to be one of the only beings to care for her in a much more peer-like way, whereas almost everyone else looked and spoke to her like a child compared to an adult. However, with the amount of things she witnesses having someone come to her in the way Eyian did helped progress her mental and physical development more for the positive than anyone else could have. Being an exceptionally positive influence in her life, Eyian is on her way to becoming the wife. @Weird3y_
    • ‘Sarah’, ‘ma’. Being a /woman/ *cough trap* who taught her how to get free food and how to use her words to trick people into thinking she was a helpless child Sarah has helped turn her into the manipulation machine that she is today. Asides from getting her food and generally being a comforting sight Sarah has helped her with people and problems and she almost sees her as her mother for all the insight she provides. @Faunfire
    • Johanna Helga, ‘Grammie’. Someone who has had a mix and mash of positive and coincidentally negative interactions and views towards Vinette she has at the very least helped her mature and learn more from her sheltered point of view. Being the grandma and essentially blood-ruler of the du Bourgeois family, Vinette has a duty to her and feels the need to make sure she learns from her even if it seems like the wrong teachings. @Axelu
    • Bruce Everstone, ‘Brucie’. Possibly one of the main influencers to her eating correctly aside from Eyian Bruce has kept a steady stream of food for her to eat running, though she has eaten much past the limit he set. Nonetheless, Bruce has taken on a father figure role in the absence of Akie, and has found himself the trust of the girl through food and general friendship. He’s taught her little, but helped her along the way and that is greatly appreciated. He’s bent over backwards for her, and that’s one of the reasons he almost calls him ‘Pa’ like Akil. @FluffHairBebop
    • Keith. Simply someone who had very, very early on showed her around the slums and eventually brought her to Akil, she has severely lost connection with him, though learned a good amount from his words and actions. Due to being the shuttle to Akil, she greatly thanks him. @daddykeith
    • Ravan. A person who took her in and gave her a place to stay within the slums--also providing her employment and a place to utilize her skills she is extremely grateful to him. Giving that she has been acting like his daughter simply to warm his heart she does enjoy her time with him and his masked crew, though is mostly around to play house. @DIEinPAIN60
    • Neutral.
    • Arradon Riff. ‘That guy’. Someone whom she doesn’t like nor truly dislike in any sense but someone who has been on the mind recently. Shifting constantly like the Farah’deen dunes Vinette finds herself at odds with the man. She would much rather keep her distance from him than trust him to cook her a muffin. @Delta113
    • Estranged and Disliked. Truly everyone else in Riffs gang asides from him.
    • Kuhliann for causing a scene, getting her arrested by the inquisition and attempting to kidnap her. @Hypefest
    • Serlon for assaulting her, stealing her doll, and strangling Sarah.
    • Robert the Url, for making suggestive advances towards her. @R_O_B_E_rt

    Life Story

    Birth
    Born two her two parents on April 3rd, 288 AC in the Ithanian town of Bourgoise Vinette lived as an impoverished baby. Born to two parents she lived as the only child being born with little to no extended family nearby.

    Childhood (1-10)
    Spending the first three years of her life in Ithania, Vinette has little to no memory of her old home just that there was a long river that flowed nearby. Being the only child and close family member in relation to her parents she was spoiled as a child in Ithania. Because of her lack of other family members the only people who truly knew of her were her parents and possibly an extremely trusted friend. The reason for this happened to be because of her Sanguine dominant trait being the Red Eyes which made her appear evil and void-ridden much like her Saivale father who already had a negative standing in the Unionist Ailor society. Due to these eyes for the first three years in Ithania she would be sheltered from the outside world spending a good portion of time indoors leading to her ever growing pale complexion and unhealthiness due to a lack of sun. Her parents made sure to make this up to her by buying her many sweets seeking to comfort her with material goods causing her to grow greedier with age.

    The Saivale and subsequently Sanguine father wanted to move Vinette further away from her home as the members of the society became ever suspicious and even sought to accuse them of adultery as they had heard a baby crying in the home but had never seen the two married. This only persuaded the mother to leave her higher society life and move with him away.


    She arrived in Regalia at the age of four with a major downgrade in her living conditions as her family brought over little wealth, trading their villa and estate as they would need to hide in the slums. No longer being able to be spoiled by her mother and father she would sit in the slums surrounded by crime and low-waged peasants. Her parents would have disputes as the mother happened to be perfectly fine whilst her child, that being Vinette, and her husband were both /afflicted/ in her eyes. This caused a tear between her and them eventually leading to her leaving for a few years in Vinette's early life. This caused the father to seek out a different person to feed from as he had been using her more like cattle to that of a wife. He would give Vinette little to no affection as he did not understand personal connections with others, though he could find common ground with her being a Brood. He sought to protect and feed her only on that basis, otherwise she would be another piece of food.

    Her mother eventually returned seeking to aid Vinette instead of helping her father as Vinette took up her primary care because she could not leave the slums and much less the house.

    Her mother and father would work with horticulture and brewing low-priced healing poultices along with natural healing salves for rashes in the slums to make enough money to feed themselves as they would be very close to emaciated The father would give most food to the mother as he sought to feed Vinette with the spare blood of his victims to satiate her, but the mother would object wanting her to survive without the use of others. However, the two would dispute over this and Vinette would constantly shift based on whatever food was brought to her which was very little.

    She worked in the store with her father and mother, though she was in a backroom so customers could not see her eyes. The father looked upon her without love and her mother like she were a tainted creature so they thought others would feel the same way. They believed she would be bad for business so they placed her in the backroom where she worked with dangerous chemical concoctions not really caring for her safety as they instead sought to scrape just enough money to get themselves well.

    Throughout this age of her life she would work as a child laborer for her parents taking odd jobs around the slums for food as she avoided crime, taking to alchemy and working with plants instead.

    Because her parents would keep her in this backroom to perform alchemy she would have little to no contact with them anymore instead seeking ways to entertain and feed herself. She escaped the room through a break in the floor boards finding herself climbing out through the floor spaces. From thereon she would go through the bustle of homeless people and beggars seeking out her own food as her family provided little for her. Despite the red-eyes people would pay for her to do disgusting jobs like cleaning dead rats out from hard to reach places and even fetching lost items. Her pay would be severely reduced because she were both an easily manipulated child and a brood. Other children would be more fearful of her red eyes as they saw it as a sign of evil, and she would have little to no peer interaction becoming socially inept with those close to her age.

    Teens (10-18)
    For the next eight years Vinette would work with her family on the alchemy business creating a wide range of alchemy concoctions even finding time to experiment on her own. However, she would go day to day without the guarantee of food and her parents gave little to no care watching after her as they focused more so on working and getting enough pay to keep the house and get ingredients. Recently she has found a few people willing to give her food for free and despite having parents thinks she might be able to abuse an orphanage in order to siphon free food to her parents.

    Despite her parents locking her away most the time and giving her little to no interaction she would try and feel some casing of love and care for another being that they no longer felt for her. She became her own supply of food as her parents almost totally stopped giving her any money or sustenance anymore. They no longer cared if she left so long as she did not interrupt their doings, and she would find herself wondering trying to find ways to give them food instead. Orphanages would turn her down due to her eyes and she truly sought after becoming a skilled alchemist to try and find a way to cure her red eyes though it was to no avail as little could overlook her red eyes as she grew older.


    Overall she simply spends her time working on alchemy and trying to bum food off people in the place of money for the jobs she does, though the Sanguine traits make this nigh impossible with her increasing age.

    Adult Life (18)
    After her two children were born she locked herself in her house, staying stuck indoors with them for months. Having fear of anything happening to herself of those she loved she grew increasingly depressive to the fact that harm might come to her children most of all. Still selling alchemy on the side, Vinette lives her life to keep her children alive as she no longer lives for herself, rather for the twins.

    Hello! Here is my review;

    Under her life story, it's rather vague in regards to how the conditions of her life were, what her vampire parent was like or why her vampire parent brought her about, surely others would of caught on something was amiss with their child bearing the eyes of vampiric brood. How did other people treat her as a child, with her crimson red eyes? Or, how her Saivale father was treated, were they looked down upon, was her father killed or blamed for the red eyes of the child? Clarify! There's certainly a lot of potential there!

    Be sure to tag me and highlight edits in blue when you're done!​

    Nvm Caelamus, I'm changing up the character again. Let me re-write portions since I am changing up portions of her race and personality to make her reflect herself in a better light.

    @Caelamus Should I update the format to the new format or is all this information still acceptable and/or relevant? Also changed her to half-human because that more so reflects her character as she had few true elfish traits either way. Profs changed accordingly and everything apart from format should be completely correct and inline with the character.

    Height breaches the minimum is all. 5 ft is the minimum usually for most ailor, especially for one with elven blood.
