Tiffany Terlinna
Tiffany Izaval Terlinna
Imbued with rare beauty, grace, and magical powers, Tiffany Terlinna prefers the simple and priveleged life of the wealthy port city of her birth. Hedonistic, almost to a fault, she enjoys the pleasurable things of the world, despite the blessings she has that could use to greater benefit.
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
As is common with many of her kind, Tiffany is built in a way that is extremely in line with conventionally attractive, the demonic line meant to entice those around her. She is tall, thin, with greatly exagerated proportions around her chest and butt.
Identifying Characteristics
In an ironic twist, Tiffany has a distinctive visual trait that would otherwise be perfectly normal. Her hair has been a radiant golden color, an extremely unusual trait for Tieflings, who are as a rule have hair that is black or white. Her mother’s hair was the former, and her Elf father’s hair was dark brown. What that means, if anything, is unclear. Early in childhood, an itinerant cleric of Phoenicia claimed that it was evidence that the demonic taint was shrinking, and that Tieflings would eventually go back to “normal”. While this likely meant to be given as a positive message, it was not received that way by her parents, who made great pains to prove that their beloved daughters were already normal just as they were
Tiffany, for her part, has owned it, loving the fact that she has something that makes her unique, even among her kind.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Tiffany was born as a twin sister along the coastal port city of Vulzesh, where she’s lived her entire life. Her mother was Tiefling, and so as in all cases, her children would carry her demonic heritage clear, while her father, was an Elves">Elf. Although in an unusual relationship, the two have been deeply close and the anchor for their two daughters. Delonethe, her father, was in his elder years when she was born, and having accrued some wealth in his long life, allowed him an effective retirement, spending his waning years in happiness with his vibrant wife and two beloved children.
Tiffany and her twin sister Bethany were thick as thieves in the city in childhood, and were vital to each other. Despite the large population of such a vital coastal and riverine trade city, Tieflings were still a rare sight, as they are in most places. Being able to be comfortable with each other was necessary growing up, confiding in each other when being verbally or even physically attacked for their demonic bloodline.
More than anything though, they were especially talented at helping each other get out of or in to trouble. It was in such a case that, while children, Tiffany discovered that she had magical capabilities. A large, burdensome, bully of a human child accosted the sisters in an ally one afternoon. Having done nothing to anger or address him, it had all of the telltale marks of inherited bigotry against the demonblooded. Having chased the two, the boy was able to tackle Tiffany to the ground.Trying to defend herself from his punches with her arms, she wasn't able to fight back. In a flash of instinct, a telekinetic, magical projectile, reminsecent of a fist, struck the boy hard in the face. It wasn't enough to injure him, but the scare of such a strike, and what else may come, startled the boy to run away.
That Tiffany had the makings of a sorcerer and her sister Bethany did not was a source of contention and jealousy for years. Tiffany had done little to help the situation, using what very little she could do on command to garner attention, often away from her sister. By their later teenage years, as her abilities and reputation had grown, Bethany had generally accepted the fate, recognizing that the magic abilities also brought the sort of attention that she didn’t actually want. She was quickly showing to be the more introverted of the two, though still warm and outgoing in her own way.
As a young woman in a bustling city, Tiffany gravitated towards the dock areas where the trade and business was had. It was not only the best place to get a few coins for simple work, it was the best way to see all the people and things coming in and out from all over the world. The sights, sounds, and smells emanating from the ships were fascinating. Especially, it turned out, watching the strong, sweaty, almost exclusively male crews of the ship toil in their work. Some of her childhood friends had a similar interest, and even gone one step further to sign on as deckhand or cabin boy and sailed to sea. Tiffany found it better to stay put in the city, where the work was easy and the coin was plentiful, for her.
Sexuality
Tiffany is extremely open with her desires and her openness. She takes great joy and satisfaction in being desired, and makes a strong effort to make herself both more desirable, and to be in locations where she can be seen and desired. The only thing greater than be desired, for her, is being able to see those desires realized. She’s a people pleaser, and holds herself in great esteem for how she can make her partners feel in the intimate of moments.
With that, except for a few exceptions earlier in her life, sex has not been a means by which two (or more) people express their love for one another. Rather, it’s simply a fun activity that she’s particularly good at, like running.
She could see herself, theoretically, stopping all the fun and confine her bedroom adventures down to one guy, but it would absolutely have to be the right guy. Unfortunately, that ship might have sailed...
Education
Tiffany was educated by her father. She has a functional literacy, and has an appreciation for ‘classical’ poetry of the Sylran Elves of the First Age. She has a decent handle of mathematics, enough to do her job handling coinage and exchanges. She also has a trained singing voice, though far be it from an accomplished bard.
To try and have a better understanding of her mysterious magical powers as a sorcerer, Tiffany has done some reading into the study of arcane magics. While it has given her no answers to why or how she’s able to cast spells that typically require practice and training as a Wizard, it has at least been enough to help her identify what she’s doing.
The degree to which she seems to easily absorb and understand new information shows that she could succeed at any number of 'higher' vocations than waiting over guests at an Ordinary, which has caused some consternation between her and her father.
Employment
Tiffany works at The Extra Ordinary. Rather than being called a Tavern Wench, her boss, the Ordinary’s owner, prefers to call her a Hostess. With the establishment being used as a meeting place as well as hotel and tavern, it’s more reputable than the slummy establishments inhabited by the Sailors or other riff raff, and so Harlihn makes it clear that there is a higher expectation of behavior. Tiffany is also granted a greater degree of autonomy for how she conducts herself on the premises.
Tiffany has been well known to take extra money to do ‘favors’ for the guests, with Harlihn’s awareness and approval, so long that everything is fair, consensual, and not interfering with the rest of business.
Failures & Embarrassments
There was a really cute guy who was amazing, that Tiffany let slip away years ago. Vail went off to go be an adventurer and hopefully join The Pathfinder Society, and she wasn’t ready or willing to go off with him. None of the guys she’s been with have been quite the same. Given how many guys she's tried in the time since, she’s become worried that she may have let her ‘one and only’ run away.
Still, the only way to know for sure is to keep looking, and hope that someone else as great may yet come along.

Taboos
Tiffany refuses to be belittled or talked down to for who she is or the choices that she makes, and has little patience for this behavior against others. She knows she’s frilly, flirty, and maybe a bit ditzy, but that doesn’t mean she’s less worthy of respect than anyone else. She can’t stand cruelty or heartlessness.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Confounding her father, Tiffany’s motivation seems to be primarily revolved around comfort, short term gratification, and hedonism. She has a keen mind, when she chooses to use it, and her sorcerous magic could be put to productive use, but she sees little point in it. She’s content in working in The Extra Ordinary, along with the ‘side hustle’ that comes with it, and enjoying the comfort and luxury of this tropical port city.
If asked, she’d like to be able to take over ownership of The Extra Ordinary, or one of the other establishments of the city. Tiffany understands that running such an establishment is far less fun than being the flirty girl providing drinks, but she feels a special bond with the place that she wants to maintain, and to do right by Harlihn, the owner. More than any of that though, she feels happiest when she makes other people happy, and being able to operate a business whose primary purpose is to allow people to gather, socialize, inebriate themselves and find happiness would make the effort worth it.
As much fun as she has rotating through the countless and nameless men of the world, she would like to, at some point, settle down with just one guy. For the moment though, she’s not ready to make that choice, and she hasn’t found any reasonable suitors for the job. There are times in the quiet, vulnerable moments, where she wonders if may have made the wrong choice; if she would have been better off living on the road as an adventurer with her old boyfriend.
Virtues & Personality perks
Tiffany is an inherently charming and friendly person, seeing the best in most people, despite the harassment she received as a child because of her ancestry. Though it has upset her in the moment, it's not stopped her from viewing the world as overall good, and from wanting to help make it a better, more friendly place, in the way that she can.
It's been said that she's never met a stranger, and is immediately forming rapports with people upon first conversation. Remembering everyone isn't always easy, especially remembering every sailor from a ship that comes to visit The Extra Ordinary, but she does her best to make them feel known and welcome.

Vices & Personality flaws
Her friendly demeanor can give way to some big, almost childish emotions. Though she can return to normal eventually, she can take things very personally in the moment, even for things that do not immediately affect her. This has often manifested in defending her sister, friends, or even patrons of the ordinary.
Her trust in others can lead her to be gullible and not see the coniving intentions of others.

Social
Contacts & Relations
Tiffany is a popular lady within Vulzesh. Of her childhood friends that didn't jump ship to see the world, many of them now hold positions at the docks, or are apprentices in the various shops in the merchant areas.
The Extra Ordinary is by no means the only tavern in town, and Tiffany isn't the only flirtatious woman. She's managed to form a small gathering of girlfriends, equally interested in enjoying life's simple pleasures. They all have little in common beyond this, but their bonds are surprisingly tight for their bond being formed for so simple a purpose as joining each other for wine and getting laid.

Family Ties
Tiffany supposedly has extended family on her father's side across the world in the forests of Bronzebark. She's never met her elvish cousins or aunts and uncles, and likely could only produce their names under duress. With the thousands of miles between them, the chances of ever meeting them seemed impossible, and so she never put a great concern in knowing about them, save to make her father happy.
Religious Views
In her carefree attitude, Tiffany is not an especially religious person. She honors the necessary holy days of the Gods, though often doing so out of a matter of solemn obligation than any true feeling of reverence or devotion.
The most common God that she will pray to earnestly is to Wahweth. Zulseth is particularly susceptible to his wrath of heavy storms, and so she finds it prudent to ask for his pity, for the sake of the thousands of people who make the city their home. She also carries a pendant of Khalee, though not for the reason suspected. Many think Tiffany carries an image of the Goddess of Beauty out of vanity, where the young tiefling prays to the Goddess for her blessings governing the seasons, asking to continue to give favorable conditions to the land so more people can benefit.

Social Aptitude
Although Tiffany's attire often pushes the boundaries of socially acceptable, and her proclivity for bedroom adventures goes beyond them, Tiffany is actually quite astute of social ettiquette and customs. When the moments call for them, she is courteous, genteel, and respectful of decorum.
Wealth & Financial state
Tiffany has a tidy sum of coin assembled together from the years of working at the Extra Ordinary, along with her "side hustle". Aided by still living with her retired father, she could depart Vulzesh with enough currency to get by just about anywhere else, at least until she got her feet under him.
She says she's saving the money up to buy the ordinary herself, but she'd never be able to reach that at the rate she's going.
