Round Woman

[Round Woman]

Character Name Appearance Race: Pycon Caste: Unknown/ not applicable at this time Gender: woman Age: Roughly 2 years. Note that Pycon age and maturity work in an unusual way. In human maturity terms she is something like 25, but it doesn't exactly translate. Birthday: Day 85 of Winter, 512 Birthplace: Zeltiva Appearance: A warm brownish color of gray clay, in her usual form she is 5 inches tall and 3 inches thick. Her form is like a human woman with large round breasts, belly, and hips, and heavy waves of curling hair hanging to her shoulders. She has large eyes that move naturally and close when she rests, but otherwise never blink, and are the same color as her flesh. She has full lips and a round nose. She resembles a statue representing fertility or bountiful harvests. (She is very loosely modeled on the "Venus of Willendorf", which you can look up if you want a visual.) Note that she can change her form with some effort, but this is her comfortable, main form. Character Concept Round Woman is caring and nurturing, but does not value these traits highly. She tends to feel inferior because many Pycon her age have already travelled to multiple cities, fought much larger creatures than themselves, and generally collected the experiences that account for status in her culture. Growing up in a sea port town, she has a little bit of knowledge about a lot of places, races, and events through stories she hears from travellers, and she sometimes boasts and pretends these stories are things that happened to her. As is common for her race, she answers to any name she is called by others. Round Woman is one of the more dignified, but she is not offended when she is called Fat Lady or Big Girl. She has also been called names such as Bounty, Plenty, and Fertility. Character History Her mother became pregnant again very soon after RW's birth, so RW took on physical traits of a pregnant mother. RW was involved in raising her new young sister, whose default form is that of a rowboat including moveable oars. This family obligation delayed her worldly experience, and now she and her sister have both gone off to explore the world separately, as their mother did a while ago. She was born and raised in a loose community of her race near a clay bank on the shore of Zeltiva and was known mainly as Momma and Sister and Sweetie, all of which she will still answer to. Recently she gathered up a supply of clay and sculpted a basket full of fruit, which she carried to the docks. She snuck in to a crate full of artisanal trinkets and pretended that she and the basket together were a regular sculpture. She ate the clay of her basket of fruit in careful rations during her travels. She was traded a few times, and through these trades got her new names.
