Nadjia


Appearance

Race: Human
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Birthday: 13th, Autumn, 499AV
Birthplace: Born in Aventhal, her parents migrated to Lhavit when she was a very young child.

Appearance:
Image

Long, thick, dark espresso colored hair is usually kept to one side in a simple braid or tie. Her kohl-rimmed eyes are deep green. She often wears a copper necklace with red, white, and copper flame-kissed beads. When the occasion calls for dressing up, she has a lovely emerald colored damask dress that sets off her eyes, and a matching cloak w/ fur trim when the weather turns chilly.

Character Concept

Nadjia's family are full of passionate storytellers and musicians, an area she lacked true proficiency. Instead, she developed an aptitude for academic study and writing. Curiosity for knowledge sake, her dream is unfettered access to the Bharani library. Seldom outspoken, she finally admitted that her ambition is to be given the opportunity to be initiated into the order of Seekers, but fears she won’t be given a mark or acknowledged. For now, she is content to write and scribe for others.

Character History

Her mother’s family were originally Talderan, many of whom were artisans and bards. What they lack in riches, were made up in imaginative stories told around the hearth and meal times. Her father was Kalean and was eager to settle back in Lhavit.

Nadjia’s father and family were craftsmen and artists who would provide for the family in a variety of jobs she remembered — papermaker and calligrapher among them. Her mother and other family members were performers, musicians, and at times buskers. Somehow, there was always just enough food on the table and a few indulgences that made her feel like they were seldom struggling to survive.

When it appeared that Nadjia travailed with delivering stories of a fantastical and entertaining nature, and lacked the nuanced charms to be a gifted musician, she was encouraged to develop other talents.

One clear midsummer day, Nadjia was walking home with her uncle (a family friend really) and the Skyglass exterior of the grand library gleamed especially bright and she wandered in through the front entrance. Never had she seen so many books in one place, it was dizzying. She marched up to the immaculate carved desk and inquired as how one might be given permission to read them all. The white haired lady at the desk might have been amused or annoyed, it’s hard to recall.

Later, her Uncle recounted the tale to her parents (exaggerated, no doubt) and her education in writing began not long after, as a way to give back in exchange for pursuing their vast catalog of subjects. She recorded a number of her family's stories over the seasons, but there were some earlier ones passed down orally in what she eventually learned to be Ancient Tongue. It required a lot of assistance from her Uncle to finally decipher the stories meanings, trying to write it down was even more difficult.

Now, at Nineteen, Nadjia is leaving familial comforts to devote herself to the pursuit of knowledge and perhaps make a friend or two along the way.

Nadjia Character Insights [WIP]

Postby Nadjia on June 3rd, 2019, 1:11 am

Insights into Nadjia... a discovery in progress

Image


Part 1: General Information and Background

General Information :
1. What is your Name? Nadjia
2. Do you go by a nickname or pet name?
Some family members might have called called Nadi or "Naughty" as a child, which was in jest as the only thing I ever got into trouble over is daydreaming or getting distracted.
3. How old are you? 19
4. What is your height? 5'1"
5. What is your weight? 105 lbs.


Aesthetics :
1. Describe yourself as you see yourself. Curious, alert, and organized; not content or complacent by nature. Uncovering a new bit of knowledge or trivia would bring a smile and make the day feel like a success.
2. Describe yourself as others typically see you. A bit too serious or literal at times, congenial, polite, soft-spoken, intelligent and capable.
3. What is your favorite body feature? My hands, they are graceful, articulate, and my primary tools.
4. How physically fit are you? Able to handle chores, walking around the city and performing light physical effort, but a bit slight of build.
5. How do you typically dress and what is your style? Deep greens and golden tones are her signature colors, and with her modest resources she is well-groomed, but latest fashion is never at the forefront of her concerns. Given the opportunity, she would dress in more luxe silk fabrics in tasteful silhouettes that allow for sufficient movement.


Family :
1. Who are your parents and what are they like?
Her mother Eline is dependable, compassionate, outgoing, curious, sometimes anxious and too talkative, but very tolerant. Nadjia's mother was named after her Great Aunt Elindre Snowsong, recently widowed after her husband Kaj died.

Her Father Lycus is smart, creative, a bit unconventional, but laid-back, can be disorganized at times, not shy, but prefers periods of solitude and quiet. A patient teacher to Nadjia.
2. Do you have any brothers or sisters?
The younger twins Leif (m) and Lillun (f) are finally reaching the age to take on more chores and be less of a nuisance to Nadjia.
3. What is your extended family like? Vibrant and opinionated, full of artistic temperaments and talents.
Female aunts, cousins, etc. - Juni, Sollin, Sirild, and Noryll
Male uncles, cousins, etc. - Aslak, Agnar, and family friend "Uncle" Vegard and his son "cousin" Kent
4. Do you consider close friends as important or more/less important than family? I don't have many close friends outside of extended family members.
