Tabitha Aryns

[Tabitha Aryns]

Tabitha "Tabby" Aryns pronounced as "Tab-ih-tha, Tab-ee, Air-ens" Basic Facts Race: Human Gender: Female Age: 21 Years Old Birthday: Winter 89th, 492AV Birthplace: Zeltiva ~ * ~ Current Location: Syliras Employment: Soothing Waters Job/Wages: Seamstress, 4 GM/D Living Expenses: -45GM/S (Poor) Appearance: There isn't really anything special about Tabitha's appearance, she has dark brown hair that can appear reddish in the light, or black in the dark, and her eyes are a light brown but can appear pitch black at first glance. Her skin is fairly white with olive over tones, and stands at roughly 5'3" and weighs in at 103lbs, her body is thin with softly curved hips, and a small bust. There are currently no scars or marks on her body. Her clothes are generally neutral in color, and do not show favor to either feminine or masculine preferences. One interesting feature hanging around Tabitha's neck is an intricate silver key by a sturdy silver chain, Tabitha is rarely seen without it. Character Concept Tabitha is considered to be a strange girl full of many contradictions, shes quiet, and introverted but in no manner is she shy, and ironically enjoys interacting with people who are able to approach her aloof demeanor. While Tabitha may appear distant at first, she is very caring, and a reliable person, however she may prove to be too caring, and end up being walked on because of her inability to say no to her friends and family; though it may be painful, she knows what her limits are, and sets the bar accordingly. Meaning she doesn't make false promises if she feels she can not meet the expectations. Concerning interests, or work, she is a focused person who isn't distracted easily from her activities, but on the flip side she may end up becoming absorbed with what she is doing, and is unable to do anything else until someone breaks her out of her activity, or she herself snaps out of it. Theme Song : *Lyrics are on the youtube video's description. Character History Tabitha's history is fairly plain, she has a mother, and a father, both whom loved her very much, her mother was a seamstress that watched out for both husband and daughter, and Tabby's father was a lock and key-smith that had an almost obsessive passion for riddles and codes. Tabby helped her mother fix clothes at an early age, but what really peaked the young girl's interest was her father's cryptography skills, the making of a secret message that no one else could read was a thrilling idea. So both daughter and father would take turns sending each other codes, and cracking them, a small past time in her father's eyes, but it became the building blocks for Tabitha's own passion for cryptography. Then the Winter of 512AV thrusted its dangers on the family, and Tabitha's best friend Amanda. With the deadly plague slowly taking the city, Tabby's mother and father bailed out early before the city itself could quarantine everyone. Leaving their daughter behind was an incredibly painful thing to do, but Tabby was adamant in helping her friend Amanda, whom had fallen to the cursed plague. Fortunately Amanda had made a recovery at the end of Spring 513AV, even if it had left her fairly weakened, and vulnerable, it would not have been possible if Tabitha hadn't been there to support her best friend. It was the little things that Tabitha did that made a huge difference in the outcome of Amanda's health. Though Tabitha wasn't out of the woods yet, two seasons later she received word by courier that her father had fallen gravely ill, her mother wanted Tabby to come to Syliras as soon as possible. Of course with the distance the courier had to travel, it was unlikely that Tabby would make it in time to see her father alive still, she sold off her family's home and possessions and made the journey anyways; her mother would most likely need the emotional support. The journey was made by a small trade caravan that went in between Zeltiva and Syliras on the Kabrin road, and took at least 60 days to finally arrive in Syliras on the 77th of Fall, 513AV. Much to Tabitha's dismay it was just as she had thought, her father was long dead, and already cremated, but he had left her a small silver key, with seven curious words etched on its surface, and a small gem hidden within its twisted silver handle, and a message whom her mother relayed to Tabby woefully: "Solve my riddle."

The handle is gnarled and twisted, underneath its silver strands is a piece of hidden smoky quartz, the gem itself is just barely visible. Etched in the silver there are several, seemingly unrelated words placed in the metal with care: Destiny, Pride, Trust, Hope, Belief, Caution, Peace. Whatever the intended message was is lost on Tabitha, she is currently unable to decipher her father's last riddle, but that does not stop her from contemplating its ambigious meanings. The key itself hangs on a seperate silver chain necklace.   Housing Location: Syliras House: Traveller's Row, 1 simple single room indefinitely.

She cleans, she cooks, and she sews, and has a talent for it, however with the death of her husband her life has crumbled to near dust. Consumed with grief, Ceras has lost her job, and her emergency funds have dryed, if Tabitha hadn't arrived when she did then Ceras may have also found herself in Syliras' crematorium. Skills: 30 Sewing, 10 Cooking, 10 Cleaning Threads Involved : Sewing Training 1 & 2 Placeholders Bully Her Father's Riddle The Daily Grind Too Soon... Name: Job Aryns Relation: Father Age: 55 Years Old (Deceased) Bio: The father of Tabitha Aryns, and husband to the recently widowed Ceras Aryns. In life he was a locksmith and secrets enthusiast, passing on his own passion to his daughter, and the sole reason for his daughter's innate curiousity of the unknown; to question when nothing made sense, and in turn uncover the answers. After his death, however, Job Aryns did not proceed to rejoin the circle of life, death, and rebirth, he stayed behind. Pained by his wife's extreme reaction to his death, he can not move on knowing his beloved is in agony, and thusly remains by her side in ghostly form- though she is mostly unaware of his presence. Concerning Tabitha: He ultimately trusts and believes in his daughter that whatever is thrown her way, she will handle it, and will be proud of her no matter what path she chooses, or who she will become in the future. For better, or for worse. Skills: 25 Soulmist Projection, 15 Materialization, 10 Possession Threads Involved : N/A Name: Amanda Eraspure Relation: Best Friend Age: 22 Years Old Bio: Amanda is a perky and lively girl that has been Tabitha's best friend since she was six, and Amanda seven, if it hadn't of been for Amanda, Tabitha would be an incredibly shy girl with few social skills, if any at all. The two shared everything together, secrets, storys, toys, and even their blood; they pricked eachother's thumbs and combined the blood that flowed, they were sisters at heart, but they wanted to solidify that connection in blood. While Tabitha was more interested in riddles, and secret messages, Amanda took to plants and herbal remedies like a seed to earth. It is perhaps because of this specific skill set that she managed to escape the worst of her illness in the Winter of 512AV.
