Rainbow (Fix)
Rainbow (Fix) (a.k.a. "Rainbow")
Fix, known mostly be her more, ahem, colorful sobriquet of 'Rainbow,' is a young half-elf new to Eisen. She was heading towards a life of crime, growing up on the streets of Bellancourt, Montaigne's capital city, when she was taken in by a goblin merchant named Shabazz.
Even then, she was headed more towards life as a rogue than anything else when, one day, when under attack, her magic blossomed and let her defeat her attackers.
Now, she has embraced the life of a wanderer and adventurer, and prioritizes living a life of excitement and adventure, making some gold, and picking up (and inspiring!) a few good stories along the way.
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Rainbow is tiny, and lithe, but heavier than she appears. What she lacks in muscle mass, she more than makes up for in tone, and is much tougher than she looks.
Body Features
She has some scars and tattoos. The most obvious are a deep puncture wound in her stomach that is visible just above her hip when she bares her midriff, a tattoo on her left shoulder of a mouse sitting on a padlock, and another tattoo on her right shoulder. It looks like a black bar, but some small lines and swirls are visible at the edges - like she marked over another tattoo.
She also has patchs of silver scales on her back, chest, neck, and upper arms and legs, slowly spreading as she ages.
Facial Features
She has a cut over her left eye, which creates a veritcal gap in her left eyebrow.
Identifying Characteristics
The most obvious one is her hair. She varies the styles, but it's usually something 'punk' style, and the fact it is always a riot of bright primary colors makes her stand out wherever she goes.
Physical quirks
She's very quick and nimble, and has trouble sitting still. If she remains in one position for too long, she's prone to fidget and squirm. When she does move, she tends to move in quick bursts, running to look at one thing, then another, with an overabundance of enthsiasm.
Apparel & Accessories
She usually dresses for comfort, but has developed more of a sense of style as she has gotten older, and gained more options. She often dresses provacatively, more out of the fact that she HATES feeling hot than a desire to be overly sexy. However, she is also not shy about using whatever features she can to get her way.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Fix grew up in the shadow of the splendor of Montaigne's capital, Bellancourt, an orphan abandoned in the streets and slums of the shining city.
Surviving by the skin of her teeth, running in packs of larger street kids, whenever possible, Fix was taken in by a goblin merchant and locksmith named Shabazz. Shabazz took care of her as best he could - he likened it as closer to leaving food and water out for a feral cat, rather than adopting and raising a kitten.
When she was 15, one day, she just struck out on her own, not even saying good-bye, and hopped on a train going north. She ended up crossing the straits into Avalon, where she met a half-elf bard named Roderick, and his travelling carnival.
In the carnival, she learned more about showmanship, performance...and a more organized, professional brand of thievery and confidence games than she had encountered before. Eventually, things ended badly with Roderick and the carnival, and she escaped the authorities by the skin of her teeth, stowing away on an airship that ended up taking her to Novandria.
Gender Identity
She views herself a female, but hasn't really been exposed to anything that tells her they're any other option.
Sexuality
Fix's attitude towards sexuality is paradoxical. She doesn't really place a great deal of importance on sex, and is largely indifferent to it as a priority, but enjoys the act of sex when it happens. She indiscriminately picks partners, regardless of gender, race, and so on, but is very picky when she DOES pick a partner. It's more due to her whims changing, from moment to moment, or finding one person more interesting than anyone else in the moment, than any particular 'type' of person she has fixed in her mind.
Education
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Whooo...ha, ha, ha!!
She has had precisely ZERO formal education. She learned something things from Shabazz, some from Roderick and hte carnival, but picked up the majority of what she knows from trial and error on the streets.
Employment
ALSO a laughable concept. Fix has been a pickpocket, a hustler, a swindler, and, lately, and more important, LEGALLY, a performer, melding her flair for the performing arts with her magical capabilities, mixing sleight-of-hand with real magic and illusion to dazzle crowds. She one days to fix a way to saw herself in half for a crowd.
Mental Trauma
Fix only fears one thing above all else: fire. When she was a child, she was trapped in a burning warehouse (she was trying to rob it, but she tends to leave that part out.) She escaped by the skin of her teeth, due to luck and some mysterious third-party invention, but that brush with death has left her mentally scarred for the rest of her life. She avoids open flame whenever possible, and will get agitated and lash out if she feels too hot.
Intellectual Characteristics
Impatient, impulsive, curious, friendly, cheerful, mercurial, and excitable. People have remarked that her nickname, 'Rainbow,' applies as much to her mood as it does to her hair, because she can display a full spectrum of feelings, all at once.
Morality & Philosophy
She has no real codified sense of personal ethics...unfortunately, usually the opposite. Her grasp of the concept of propety rights is regretably lax, and tends to adopt a perspective of, 'whoever wants a thing the most should likey be the one to have it' - a point of view usually NOT shared by the local constables.
Beyond that, she takes personal freedom seriously, and believe that people should be allowed to do whatever they want, as long as they're not hurting anyone else. (She tends to justify her assorted thefts and swindles by saying wealthy people don't NEED their money as much as she does, so she's not really hurting the rich nobleman when she steals his purse.)
Taboos
She makes it point to never steal from anyone poorer than she is.
Also, she believes that one of the WORST things a person can be is dull. She will forgive people for being petty, cruel, or condescending, but never for being boring.
