◈ || « HERITAGE » | Half-Asha; of the Remet Lineage.
› Recessively | Ailor.
› Ancestry | Carmelita's mortal mother is a Ailor woman of Tierraveran descent named María de las Mercedes Gutierrez-Lopez, once a clergywoman of the Unionist Faith. She aided many criminals in Regalia to turn a new leaf out of genuine care & a desire to help, and was seen as a mother to all outcasts. Maria met the Rejection Arken - who was disguised - during one of her sermons, and Carmelita was sired from their union after that.

◈ || « GENDER » | Agender in identity, however she presents feminine.
› Pronouns | Varies between she or they.
› Preferred Terms of Address | Non-gendered or feminine.
› Blurb | Carmelita is AFAB, though considers herself agender in identity which means (in her perspective) she doesn't favor or care about defining labels in terms of gender - or that she doesn't really have a defining gender that fits her. She goes by she & they because it's convenient due to her already looking feminine, but she typically doesn't wear gender-defining clothing and instead favors open gender expression. Sometimes she'll be masculine, sometimes she'll be feminine, and sometimes she'll be androgynous.
◈ || « SEXUALITY » | Demisexual & grayromantic.
› Preference | Carmelita has a slight preference for women or feminine individuals - but she is considered on the pansexual spectrum. She is polyamorous, & will disclose any other partners she has if the topic of romance comes up in our roleplay.
› Blurb | Carmelita is extremely avoidant regarding romance, and has a very specific criteria when it comes to romantic partners. She will dance around the subject of romance or nonplatonic emotional intimacy with either awkward answers or "thank you"s to obvious flirting, but her responses depend heavily on how your character approaches. But, if your character is willing to go through the long road of fostering a deep emotional connection, Carmelita is capable of expressing ferverent love & devotion.
◈ || « OCCULT » | Carmelita is a daughter of the Rejection Arken, and a Void Mageborn. She is also Magewise with God Magic due to her faith in the Scornblood.

› Rogue: Carmelita does not ever proclaim this herself, but is considered one due to her future goals & the people she hangs around.
› Bartender: A new picked up occupation through the Sucker Punch; which means she is still learning.
› Society Member: Carmelita is a member of the Ascendant Society, which she also professes as Presagio.

PERSONALITY INFORMATION ||
her demeanor..ೃ࿐ 》
◈ || » FAITH | ❝And through them, what they stand for: I saw salvation, and acceptance for what I am. I saw a mutual understanding.❞
› Overall Outlook | Carmelita was once a Unionist, however through unknown circumstances she now she embraces each message of the Broken Gods with almost fanatical devotion, professing that everyone will soon know Her message. It is not a secret that she follows them whatsoever, and it is relatively easy to connect the dots. She professes the message of the Scornblood above the other two and Carmelita considers that deity to be her personal patron. Carmelita does not seem to mind that there is no afterlife waiting for her arrival, and has accepted with open arms that she will more than likely be rendered a Spirit when death comes knocking.
› Personal Patrons | It should come as no surprise that Carmelita has adopted the Scornblood as her primary patron & the Covenant as her secondary patron of the Broken Gods, because of personal experience. She is a daughter of the Rejection Arken, & therefore uses her perspective and empathy when it comes to the refraction of Her.
◈ || » IDENTITY | ❝I am but a simple messenger of my Lady, and an alchemist.❞
› Who am I? | First & foremost, Carmelita is a daughter of the Rejection Arken which she considers the brunt of who she is. She considers her status as an Arkenborn both a curse & a blessing, for it is thanks to her birthright that she knows the ugliness of the world. But in actuality, the half-Asha is a cynical & angry thief, persisting in the world out of spite & utter devotion to her Gods. She relies on instinct & her rather low skill in charisma in order to survive - and often uses information she learns to lure others to her side.
› What are my goals? | The Arkenborn's main goal above all else is almost dumbly simple: Steal from oppressors, taking both expensive & sentimental valuables from them in the name of the Scornblood. She will not steal from those who are oppressed, but she has an expected disgust for those who were once oppressed to join the oppressor's boot. She will take everything from them, or die trying. Regardless, she wishes to someday be acknowledged by her Lady Scornblood -- and have her name be feared on the streets by oppressors.
› MBTI Type | The Logistician | ISTJ-T.
› Alignment | Chaotic Neutral.
› Enneagram | The Independent | 8w7.

Carmelita is a nimble woman, and like most rogues.
Light on her feet, yet extremely deadly.
She is often underestimated because of her lean build.
Yet, the necklace she dons says otherwise, even if
she did not forcefully acquire it.
Carmelita is for her own survival, leading her to have
few abilities or spells that benefit others.
Perhaps she is selfish because of that.
But aren't most rogues?

Carmelita is a half-Asha alchemist specializing
in self-enhancement potions, but can make
various types of alchemy.
Yet, there is a deception in this: She claims she
is only an alchemist, but she is also a very skilled
rogue & messenger of her faith.
With her unique perspective not only as a half-Asha
but as an Arkenborn of Rejection as well, this is not
surprising in the least.
There is no use in trying to convert her away, is there?

PLOT HOOKS ||
suspect's background..ೃ࿐ 》
◈ || › DAY TO DAY: Commonly seen things.
» Carmelita is an Arkenborn of Rejection, and mainly hangs around in the sewers as Presagio unless she is entrusted to do a specific job. She considers herself a messenger of the Broken Gods and what they stand for. Other characters who are Faithful of the Broken Gods are welcome to reach out to her, so they may discuss ideologies of faith (or scheme). Though you should be warned, if she deems you as an oppressor, she will lash out violently.
» Carmelita proclaims she is an alchemist, and makes a variety of potions. She can be contacted to make something, but for the right price. She runs Something's Brewing, an alchemy shop situated in Crookback.
» Carmelita, otherwise known as Presagio when she acts unlawfully, is a force against oppressors. She can be contacted for a job against Knight Orders (excluding the Argentum Order), noble houses, any other lawful entity, or certain Faiths. Carmelita is much more likely to accept heists or jobs against these. However, caution should be considered when asking Carmelita to do a job against those who are oppressed, Asha (& not Khama Faithful), or are pushed down into the Undercity.
» Carmelita is somewhat positively inclined to Asha, but not Khama Faithful. She will foster positive relations with Asha, but does not favor Khama Faithful for the repression of Arkenborn in their dogma.
» Carmelita is a member of the Ascendant Society with a particular emphasis on alchemical enhancement. She is consistently found tinkering in her shop (or abode), testing the limits on what she can do one's self without fatally poisoning them (or her).
» Carmelita serves as a force against the Estelley Faithful, and commonly aims to target them above the four Faiths she loathes. She has a distinct hatred for those Faithful, and seldom compromises with them.
◈ || › BACKGROUND: A short history.
» Carmelita's mortal mother is María de las Mercedes Gutierrez-Lopez, a Tierravera Ailor woman who was an Everian of the Unionist Faith in her lifetime, however fell out of that holy status due to siring an Arkenborn. Maria, afterwards, primarily served as a nurse. Her & Carmelita resided in struggling poverty before migrating to Girobalda so Maria could continue her work there of turning outcasts to a new leaf despite the loss of her holy status. There, they climbed their way out of poverty and into middle-class before Carmelita left home after something occurred to be independent.
» Carmelita's divine mother is the Rejection Arken - otherwise known as the Herald of all Outcasts. Known for her illusion magic & elusive nature rather than a destructive force, she urges those who are oppressed by society to either accept who they are, or to rage against their oppressors. Carmelita takes after her divine mother the most.
» Carmelita is from the City of Regalia, but migrated to Girobalda in her youth. She was born in relative poverty, and does not have good relations with the Unionist faith despite her mortal mother once being an Everian of the Faith.
» Carmelita has existed in shady organizations in the past, and has traveled around the Archipelago completing various jobs. Maybe your character has run into her disguise, Presagio, during one of these jobs. (DM me on Discord!)

» Four matching golden arm bands, which are always on her person in some manner. Carmelita wears these with pride, and it is rumored that she stole them back in Girobalda.
◈ || › PROPERTIES: Where Carmelita resides.
» forestcabin13: Carmelita's property situated along the outskirts of Crookback that she fixed up all by herself. She grows plants she uses for alchemy here, and rarely lets anyone into this abode without them prodding, or her inviting them personally. She pays rent for the spot of land every month either way, which isn't worth a lot, but she doesn't mind. She has no noisy neighbors, so it's a plus for her. This is not known IC information unless Carmelita brings your OC here.
