Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Keya is utterly athletic. She trains daily, most of her strength is in her legs but to underestimate a suckerpunch from her is a major mistake. She's reasonably muscular but also has just enough body fat in order to look round and appealing instead of ripped. Generally, Keya is the nightmare of any body-positivity activist as she has the 'perfect' appearance. Hourglass figure, broad chest, thin waist, round hips, strong legs, thin neck, and gorgeous face. Ironically, the only imperfection Keya has is one that isn't visible: Her sociopathy.

Body Features

Keya has pale skin and orange hair with piercing, venomous yellow eyes. She also has a beauty mark on her right cheek and is typically seen smoking.

Facial Features

Keya has a beautiful face with somewhat sharp features. She typically wears plenty of makeup and red lipstick.

Identifying Characteristics

Keya tends to wear bright red colors if she's not wearing her spy suit. But generally, there are no real identifying features that she changes other than her bright orange hair.

Physical quirks

Ambidextrous and catwalking constantly, Keya makes sure she looks good at all times from any angle. She makes sure to throw out her hips plenty while walking anywhere.

Apparel & Accessories

Keya's favorite way of dressing is like a typical noir detective with a long trenchcoat and a hat. However, she's no stranger to wearing red dresses at parties to, ironically, blend in with others even though it's very eye-catching. Generally, on mission, she likes to wear just her spy suit. Her spy suit is skintight and looks much like it's made out of latex or something similar but it's actually a bulletproof type of rubber. For the sake of decency, Keya likes to put a ballistic vest and groin guards on over it.

Specialized Equipment

Keya wields watchers gear exclusively. She has tons of gadgets ranging from full invisibility and disguises to watches with darts and lipstick bombs. Her pistol is a 3 round burst, 45 caliber handgun with a total of 30 shots in the magazine.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Keya has a long past. It all started on the sunset isles, a seemingly innocent, adorable elven child with her whole life ahead of her. She was known in the village where she lived as the young child that sold flowers and lived with her siblings. Raised mostly by her older sister Lidy Gildas who owned a training camp. During her childhood, the renegade elven empire took over her home and began to slowly, systematically enslave the local sun elves. As knights of the previous king, Keya and her siblings were spared at first. During this time, something utterly horrible began to happen: A serial killer known only as the wasp claimed 75 lives in the span of 2 years, exclusively renegade soldiers, however. Accused of the murders, Keya's siblings were worked to death while she was still spared because of her age. However, what no one knew was that under the smile of this little girl there lived a truly sick and twisted monster. For 2 years this young girl had been murdering renegade soldiers in the cruelest, most painful ways she could come up with. One stand out of her murders was where she dumped a bag of swamp leeches into a poolhouse of soldiers and locked the door.   No one ever caught her, under Keya's facade there lived a twisted, predatory monster capable of outsmarting any and all attempts to identify and capture her. For years she fought to suppress this beast inside her, she had to learn compassion by force. She kept killing until the islands were liberated by the immortals 50 years later, claiming a total of 2,687 lives using nothing but her wit and a cooking knife. The wasp was officially declared an ally during the grand union, quoted as a 'major benefit to damaging renegade morale'. In reality, all Keya wanted was revenge on the people who took everything from her. She took everything from them and spread it across the village. She continued indiscriminately murdering renegade elves before disappearing from the grid.   She spent several years as a mercenary with a Majolkkrat, going on to discover the legendary thieves vault. She did not bask in her findings long, however, several years after she went up in smoke again. For good this time.   At some point, she was selected to become an agent for the watchers. Having little to no friends on Jeslore she jumped at the opportunity and joined immediately. She quickly rose the ranks, being ridiculously skilled. Her lack of empathy and her increased difficulty at making bonds to people made her an excellent spy, one with no trouble backstabbing a person she worked with just to gain their trust. She went on tons of missions, changing the course of history several times but never taking credit for it. Instead, she stuck to the shadows and destroyed any and all evidence of her existence, going as far as to fabricate evidence of her own death in the sunset isles.

Gender Identity

Female

Sexuality

Keya is asexual. She doesn't feel particularly attracted to either of the genders.

Education

Keya has no official education but she appears highly skilled in almost any sort of field that a spy would benefit from, especially assassinations. The only official graduation she has is her watcher's agency probing test, that she passed in under a record breaking 24 hours.

Employment

As of now, Keya is a spy for the watcher's agency. It is her task to poison and topple empires that might go on to pose a galactic threat and sabotage major threats that can affect trillions. She's considered to be one of the best that the watchers have to offer.

Accomplishments & Achievements

-Body count of 2,687 confirmed kills before the age of 18.   -Helped discover the thieves vault.   -Prevented the revolutionary magical migitator from falling into malevolent hands.   -Prevented the notorious Immortal cloning plot.

Failures & Embarrassments

Keya failed to protect her own siblings, her killings lead to their deaths and she blames herself for it. She especially hates herself for failing to save her older sister Lidy, who pretty much raised her. She lost several lovers as well, either by killing them herself or through carelessness.

Mental Trauma

Keya has diagnosed sociopathy. While she can feel emotions and empathy and does have a conscience she just chooses to not let it bother her, making her the perfect spy but also a terribly unreliable partner. She also suffers from minor PTSD, losing her sister and countless love interests she chooses to no longer fall in love. In her own words, it's a waste of time and only leads to misery.

Intellectual Characteristics

There's very little Keya is bad at, even when it comes to intelligence. She knows more than any person could or would want to know, just because she is a spy for the watchers. She knows how the universe works, who the first spacefaring civilization was and where the universe came from.

Morality & Philosophy

Keya is steered by the morality of her organization. She is an invisible protector of the universe and lets nothing get between her and her goal. Her moral fabric is rather weak and has no issues betraying people for the greater good if her organization tells her so. However, she can still question her orders and is known to disobey orders and help locals from fires and such. Not because her organization taught her it is right but because her sister did.

Taboos

None

Vices & Personality flaws

Social Aptitude

Charming french accent, polite mannerisms and highly skilled at getting people to like her. She's confident at any given point and due to her sociopathy, lacks the ability to feel shame or anything related. She can sense social cues however and heavily responds to them. She can easily manipulate people as well, feeling no regret in doing so.

Mannerisms

Keya is only describable as refined and polite on the job. A lesser seen side of her is when she's at home where she can be relatively vulgar and uncensored. A side she keeps well hidden for practical reasons on the job.

Speech

Keya speaks in a refined, French accent with a soft voice you would expect from her. She changes her pitch and tone frequently to accommodate the situation and to maximize her possible influence on someone.

Wealth & Financial state
