Anouk
Image


Race: Konti
Birthday & Age: 28th of Fall 479 AV, 36 years old.
Sex: Female
Place of Birth: Konti Isle
Current Location: Zeltiva
Languages Spoken: Kontinese, fluent. Common, basic.



Concept
Anouk can usually be found around artwork, or at least discussing the topic. It is equally common for the Konti's fingertips to be stained with various colours by her inks or paints. She lives and breathes for creating art, and her crystalline blue eyes can often be found seeking out inspiration wherever she stands. Though she enjoys humour and socialising as much as the next individual, Anouk is most at peace when painting, drawing or dancing. She is a lover of all arts, taking particular joy in the things that people make with their bare hands. Whereas a warrior might see a well made sword as the perfect weapon to pull out the guts of his enemies, Anouk sees only an example of admirable creative talent.

Her passion for art and working with colours stems from the odd experience Anouk lives with. Synesthesia, by which she is affected by, results in Anouk becoming overwhelmed with colours when she hears sounds. A violin, for example, fills her mind with splashes of sky blue, whereas a seagull cry sounds turquoise green. Though she tends to keep this party trick to herself (to avoid the complex task of explaining her sensations to others), Anouk will often gasp in delight should a particularly lovely colour fill her mind whilst someone talks to her.

The Konti constantly seeks to improve herself, and though she may be happy with a piece of art, she usually believes that there is always room for improvement. She speaks quietly, never wanting to offend or insult her conversational partner, and she is far more likely to walk away from conflict that to face it head-on. Preferring logic over brute strength, Anouk has never once been involved in a physical fight, and regards violence as brutish and unnecessary.

In short, Anouk is a quiet artist who enjoys observing the world from her peaceful standpoint. She is optimistic, hopeful, and faithful to path that seems to be laid out in front of her and she enjoys find the best in those that she meets.

Appearance

Image
Anouk matches the description of many of her fellow Konti: pale skin, light blonde hair. Her aquamarine eyes often flash excitedly during conversation, and there is often a smile on her plump lips. Her figure is tall and slim, lacking the deep curves that other, more busty women, possess. She usually wears her hair loose or in various plaited styles - though lacking the skill of her cosmetologist sister, the latter styles have been lacking as of late.

She walks with soft steps, the gait of one who is in no rush and expects others to be the same. To Anouk, it is far better to breathe in the surrounding scenery than it is to bustle to and fro in a state of frenzy or panic. Her gestures are equally fluid, and even by just observing the Konti, one might conclude that she is an open, light-hearted individual.

A habit from Mura, Anouk normally dresses herself in white garments that are loose and flowing. She prefers dresses and skirts over trousers and shorts, opting for an all around feminine look. Make-up only adorns her face for special occasions, and even in such instances, it consists only of a touch of lipstick and eyeliner.

Gnosis
Divination, 1 mark. Granted to Anouk at her birth, Avalis' gnosis appears as a lily in the centre of her chest, between her breasts.

Konti Gift: Desire Empathy
Anouk can sense what it is a person wants most in the world at that given moment. This might be revenge for their sister's death, a baby, or the baker's cute son. It's not so much those easily solved, short-term wants she senses (nothing like craving for chocolate or some such thing), but more long-lasting desires. This gift is limited to touch, so should Anouk brush someone's hand in a crowd, she might sense that they want to find a nice girl and settle down, get married. But the longer she remains in contact with an individual (both in the short time and also if she comes in frequent contact with them over a long period of time), the more detail she can 'see'. As well as this, the same desire may start to sway Anouk's own wants, though this pseudo-desire on Anouk's behalf soon disappears after prolonged contact has stopped.

Family

 
Niva Pavarti
ImageAge/DOB 147 years, born 51st Summer 368AV

Relation to Anouk Mother

Skills Painting, 10. Singing, 5. Fortune telling, 10. Teaching, 25.

Gnosis Divination mark 1

Current Location Mura

Bio Niva had always been a lover of art, and thus introduced all four of her daughters to art at a young age, filling their days with painting sessions and singing lessons. She is eternally patient and almost perfectly fits the typical Konti description she her quiet demeanour and polite nature. Having come from a family with four sisters herself, she knows how to make each of her daughters feel unique and special.

 
Thalia Pavarti
ImageAge/DOB 53 years, born 3rd Spring 462AV

Relation to Anouk Eldest sister

Skills Medicine, 20. Painting, 5. Herbalism, 15. Botany, 10.

Gnosis Healing mark 1

Current Location Sunberth

Bio As the oldest sister, and the only Pavarti girl to be blessed by Rak'keli, Thalia has always prided herself on breaking the typical Pavarti lifestyle and throwing herself into healing and medicine. She is the typical older sister: bossy and maternal in equal measure, and she always takes charge of her younger sisters.

 
Euterpe Pavarti
ImageAge/DOB 40 years, born 28th Spring 475AV

Relation to Anouk 2nd eldest sister

Skills Cosmetology, 25. Drawing, 5. Singing, 5. Painting, 5.

Gnosis Divination mark 1

Current Location Riverfall

Bio Whereas Anouk paints on a canvas, Euterpe paints on faces. As a girl, she was always fascinated with make up, hair dye and the ability to change one's appearance with such tools. She is a skilled cosmetologist, and escaped to Riverfall when her sister's demands for make-overs became a little too much.

 
Okanis Pavarti
ImageAge/DOB 24 years, born 28th Winter 490AV

Relation to Anouk Younger sister

Skills Acrobatics, 15. Dancing, 10. Costmetology, 5.

Gnosis Divnation mark 1

Current Location Mura

Bio As the youngest sister, Okanis has been always been babied and doted upon by her mothers and older sisters. She's a little spoilt, and is unused to having to wait and ask for what she wants. As such, she gets bored fairly easy and has turned her attention to physical activities to keep her mind distracted.
