Name: Sonya
Gender: Female
Age: 24

Appearance:

Sonya is a small and lithe figure standing at just five foot, with a body that emphasises mobility and dexterity over strength. Well toned from an active lifestyle the subtle curvature of her body denotes her feminine nature, though due to her overall size and perceived maturity of her body it is not unknown for her to be seen as ‘childlike’ in apperance.

Her clothing reflects her agile nature as well, offering flexibility in its design resulting in a minimal degree of style and fashion where it can be afforded. Her colour of choice is emeralds and greens, with whites to blend between the individual items and gold for any highlights.

The other most noticeable feature of Sonya is the white Mask she wears at all times. Shaped to vaguely resemble a fox, it is a smooth white opal colour save for the red markings around the eyes. At the edge of the mask the faint birthmark of a mage can be noted, the mark covering the right side of Sonya’s face and even touching one of her eyes. While both are blue, the right eye appears to have an almost magical glow to it when it is seen

Bio: Sonya was born near the outskirts of the empire, in a town that could be considered as close towards the Forest of Silence and still be safe. Though her family did not come from a rich background, they were well enough off to keep Sonya to a comfortable life style. As such, as Sonya grew and the nature of her birthmark was noted, she was able to spend some time learning the nature of her gift, both through study and the occasional teacher or scholar when they time could be afforded. Inbetween these lessons she helped out around the house hold and the family business, keeping her in an active lifestyle

As her life progressed, Sonya was initially thrilled with life, always seeming to have people interested in her and being considered a gifted child who many people including her family expected great things from. With age came maturity and understanding, and through the passage of time Sonya began to understand that it was not her most of the people seemed interested in but rather the power of her gift. As more time passed, Sonya’s opinions of others became jaded, seeing people as just adopting a facade to hide their true intentions (regardless of whether that was the truth or not)

Unable to trust those around her, always believing people just wanted to use her powers for themselves, Sonya struggled to find a way she could use her power just for herself. Under the guise of wanting to help the army, Sonya headed towards the Heart of the Empire both as an escape from her current life that she now found suffocating with deceit and to bring herself closer to understanding the truth behind her powers.

Much like before, as her birthmark and her powers drew the attention of those that witnessed them, Sonya found herself surrounded with people who she felt had ulterior motives for their words of praise and encouragement. To help her through the struggle Sonya donned the mask she still wears to this day, feeling that if everyone else wears a ‘fake face’, it is only fitting she does the same.

Fighting Style: Sonya relies on a mixture of magic and swift movements to survive in a fight, resulting in a more defensive and evasive style. Mostly self learnt, her movements are unrefined but carry a style of grace to them, and her skills with the dagger she carries can make use of the openings provided by her spells.

Equipment:

• Opal Fox Mask
• Good-Luck Charm (Family Gift)
• Ornate Dagger
• Ornate Leather Armor
• Small Notepad & Quill
• Small Darts x 5
• Money pouch

Skills/Abilities:

• Martial Arts/Dodging (Average): Though Sonya prefers to avoid direct combat, she has been through a few scuffles that have taught her the value in dodging and opponents strike
• Weapon - Dagger (Average): Sonya is unlikely to amaze anyone with her skills with a Dagger, but if provided an opening she can drive it through an opponent’s flesh easily enough
• Wind Magic / Light Magic (Apprentice in Both): Sonya’s prefered use of Magic is for more disruptive and protective roles rather than out right damage. To subtly change the conditions on the field of battle to provide an advantage to her allies or to shield them from harm are staples of hers.
