Posting her again now that it's filled out. Well, other than relations which I can discuss and fill in as characters come in. But for all intents and purposes here is the queen.
Name: Celosia Akodo Serafine
Aliases: Her Majesty; Highness
Age: 42
Place of Origin: Azure's Gate
Gender: Female
Speciality: Magic
Roles & Rank: Royalty, Queen of Azure's Gate
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 137lbs
Build: Slender, graceful, even in her maturing years she has a body that, while showing the signs of aging, is still youthful - in appearance and certainly not in other other capacity.
Eyes: A light shade of violet.
Hair: Where once it was a raven black now it is lighter in shade, leading to a natural greying down the line. At present it is light black.
Skin Tone: Ivory white, though not overly pale.
Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: No ink mars her skin and the only jewelry are the various accessories she often wears - from earrings down to rings and necklaces, hardly what one could consider true piercings. There is a long-since healed scar on her back, spreading from shoulder blade to halfway down her back. The scar is healed, but the imprint remains.
Day To Day Attire: Typically Celosia will be found in fine raiment often tinted a regal purple to match her eyes and not to conflict with her skin. These clothes are often dresses with loose sleeves and a comfortable fit, but on more than one occasion she will dress down into a simple, but still fine in quality, trousers and matching top. Formal wear, such as when she is attending to her duties atop the throne or attending matters of court, consists of dresswear, with flowing sashes though tailored in such a way as to not drag along the ground. Elegance, but graceful is the key.
Strengths: Magic: Her greatest strength is her command of the mystic and arcane arts, weaving spells as if they were old hat. Which, to her, they are.
Tactics: Having been groomed to be the queen from a rather young age, it is no surprise that she has a military mind - it is naive to think conflict is inevitable in the world after all. She prefers to sit in on matters of military and offer her suggestions even if they are not asked of her.
Grace: Many have heard the tales of Queen Celosia's bladedancing - moreso in her youthful days - but few have truly seen her in action. She still has it, albeit with slower motions and more deliberate steps, and only the ones with agendas against her can deny that the queen has grace befitting one of her stature - and possibly beyond.
Weaknesses: Physical and Martial Arts: Though she has training with a blade, her affinity for magic and mental affairs meant she shirked other aspects of her tutelage days. She cannot do much in the ways of heavy lifting and even her battle attire - when she needs such a thing - is light to allow for freedom of movement rather than sturdy protection.
Age: Though she might appear young, her age is catching up with her. She cannot tap into her magical abilities or her bladedancing for extended periods any longer without exhausting herself or worse. She is not frail or infirm, but neither is she the same woman that once captivated crowds at royal tourneys.
Sexuality: Bisexual. In her younger days she was known, or at least the rumors have stated such, to have suitors both male and female. Some have even said she married her king not for love but for the purposes of an heiress - which isn't the most unheard of thing.
Relationship Status: Married.
Personality: Celosia considers herself a fair ruler, but believing that matters could be so easily divided into fair and unfair would make her naive. Naive is not a trait that befalls the queen; wise, however is. She is an intelligent woman, literate and diplomatic in many regards, but with a sincere love of arts and in artistic displays - often partaking in them herself. She is not without her faults, of course, and her love of family often has her making decisions with her emotions first rather than her logic and reason.
Celosia has no love of those who betray her good nature, be it those who engage in criminal acts within her realm or those who would betray her. Some have considered her cruel for her ironclad stance on punishment - that no crime goes unpunished (with the severity of the punishment determined at the hearing) but she insists that everything she does is for the security and safety of her people, whom she would defend with her life.
She is nothing without her citizens and subjects and will often make appearances amongst the people to ensure that they are not forgotten. Her attempts to ensure that everyone is safe, that everyone favors her, might make her seem obsessed with her own status but if there was any word that could describe the queen it would certainly not be arrogant.
Habits: Often Celosia will tap her index finger against her cheek when listening to others. She isn't aware she is doing it but many have assumed it means she is bored at their ramblings. Which isn't...always untrue. Another of her habits is snapping her fingers when summoning or dismissing someone. A simple snap that, at times, has come off as rude to those who are unaware of this rather uncommon habit.
Hobbies: Dancing, if only to prove she still has it. Whenever there is a ball or other festivities, the night hasn't truly begun until Celosia graces the dance floor with her presence. Theater, particularly observing it, is a particular favorite of hers. She rather enjoys watching the actors and getting invested in the twists and turns of a truly moving production. Celosia has an appreciation for the fine arts, believing that artists have just as much a place in her Queendom as the warriors. Warriors protect the people; artists keep them.
Fears: The premature death of her children. Their lives are more valuable than her own, no matter what her advisers say on the matter.
Rodents. Ever since she was a child and had a frightful encounter with a rat when she snuck into the larder she has hated rodents of any size. Something about their tails just...bothers her. And the way they skitter about...it's disgusting.
Likes: Her family, in particular her children
Games of strategy, such as chess
The fine arts
Cold beverages
Jewelry, especially earrings
The scent of lavender
Dislikes: Blistering cold weather
Excruciatingly long council meetings
Sour or bitter foods
Those who call her daughter Willow 'lame' due to her muteness.
Unflattering or otherwise ugly clothing.
Horseback riding.
Sleeping in nature, such as when out on a journey and having to camp due to the lack of an inn.
Parents: Celosia had a decent relationship with her parents, when she saw them, of course. She knew her parents loved her but that their duties to the queendom always came first, which was why she spent much of her time with her tutors and court appointed playmates. After the passing of her mother and Celosia's subsequent coronation, she made a promise that she would make time for her children.
Siblings: Celosia's sister, knowing she was not the next in line for the throne thanks to the order of birth, had leave to travel the realm. Celosia believes she is a sellsword or a bard or some such, but Aunt Linnea does not often get discussed.
Childhood: Much of Celosia's childhood was spent in various forms of study. It was hardly ideal but a necessary evil considering her position. She had time to herself, of course, and used it as wisely as she could. Sneaking around, trying to pilfer food from the larders or making childhood promises to her playmates, sneaking kisses to the cheek on a dare or a whim. Her childhood certainly had their moments of innocent whimsy inbetween the lessons on court etiquette and diplomacy.
Adulthood: Celosia's adult life has been a stressful one; when you become a young queen you are forced to grow up fast. Her marriage and birth of Willow Rose were the first memories of her adult life, other than her position as queen, of course. Her study didn't lesson even as she sat the throne, and her adult life was when her command of magic came into its own.
Special Moments: Some might think her ascension is the standout moment of her life, but in truth it was the birth of her daughter. She loves Willow and often feels she is a bit over protective of her, but the moment when she held her daughter in her arms still brings her unrivaled joy.
Not even her marriage measured up, considering much of her smiling that day was false. Her coronation and subsequent banquet would be a decent second place.
Current Events: The increasing news and sightings of the strange infected sorts has put a great deal of worry on Celosia's mind. She has recalled her Knight Commanders to discuss and potentially contain this threat. She is worried, and understandably so. And if that wasn't bad enough, there is discussion of Willow Rose desiring to spend more time amongst knights...which is as unbecoming as it is potentially dangerous...

Dislikes: Blistering cold weather

Those who call her daughter Willow 'lame' due to her muteness.

Sleeping in nature, such as when out on a journey and having to camp due to the lack of an inn.
Skills
A listing of skills, such as horseback riding or cooking. Levels include novice, apprentice, journeyman, expert, master.
- Magic Arts (Master): Fitting for one who took the magical pursuits, years of study and practice have made Queen Celosia highly proficient at weaving spells. Elemental magics and illusions are her strongest suit with those magics in the field of restoration being her weakest understanding.
- Tactical Planning (Expert): Celosia does have military advisers but even they often defer to her when they feel she knows best. She loves strategy, even simply playing games of strategy with her family or members of her court and council.
- Diplomacy (Expert): One of the most important aspects of the job is maintaining relationships with other nations of the world, as such she has a deft hand and a defter tongue when it comes to foreign relations. To her credit, Azure's Gate hasn't seen conflict with the other nations while under her reign so she must be doing something right. Not to say that threats haven't been leveled...
- Swordsmanship (Apprentice): She knows how to use her very particular blade but she has a distinct lack of ability when it comes to the skillful art of the blade.
- Horseback Riding (Apprentice): Anytime Celosia mounts up it is a gamble if she will stay on top for more than a handful of seconds at a time. Riding is not one of her strong suits but as she refuses to travel by carriage or being carried - as that draws attention and is asking too much of her people - she has to keep getting back on the horse.
- Literacy (Master): Reading and writing were one of the first things she was taught by her teachers and it's something she wishes to personally teach her children - particularly her heiress. She has a fondness for reading plays and she helps maintain diplomacy with her clever wordplay in letters to other leaders.
Talents & Powers
A listing of unique talents, magic, or posscessions. Royalty and Knight Commands may have two major and two minor. Knights 1st rank may have one major and two minor. Knights 2nd rank may have two minor. Knights 3rd rank may have one minor. Nobles may have one minor.
- Celosia's Chagrin (Weapon/Minor): Her rapier, the thin, sharp blade she uses in her bladedancing displays and demonstrations. It was made specifically for her by the finest smith in Azure's Gate when she was struggling with the heavier blades in the armory during training. It doubles as a catalyst with which to channel her spells. It is sharpest at the point which makes it a rather dangerous thrusting weapon and rather useless when engaged in anything other than one-on-one duels. But it is a blade that has been at her side since her youth, and still the silver is as fine as the day it was presented to her.
- Tome of the Arcane (Artitfact/Major): Always at her side is a tome with various spells and incantations and information on runes and the like. She has committed most of it to memory, particularly the combat spells, but it never hurts to use it as a referral. The tome itself is magical and always seems to know which page Celosia needs at any given moment. It might have a mind of its own, or it might be a simple....not so simple enchantment.
- Call of the Elements (Power/Major): Celosia's affinity for magic comes to manifest itself here. Though it takes a considerable amount of effort, when she channels her arcane abilities she can call upon the various elements to do her bidding, be it calling up a fury of wind to upend those in her path or a deluge of water to quell even the fiercest of flames. Some say it is the Queen's magic that keeps Azure's Gate afloat. Celosia will let them keep on thinking that if they so desire. Using the full force of the elements will leave her exhausted, it is for desperate times. Until then, she has her Tome and her arsenal of less taxing spells.
- Raiment of the Royals (Item/Minor): Her combat attire, for lack of a better term. It is silk in make and does not offer up protections against blades. What it does, other than looking stylish and coming with its own earring accessories, is allow Celosia to move swiftly and easily, and billow when she is powering up her spells thanks to an enchantment weaved into the fabric. Though the court tailors made the clothing at Celosia's request, there are patches present; wear and tear have set in but every time a rip or hole appeared she let Willow practice her clothes-making on it.
History
Parents: Celosia had a decent relationship with her parents, when she saw them, of course. She knew her parents loved her but that their duties to the queendom always came first, which was why she spent much of her time with her tutors and court appointed playmates.

@Lyla I did it. :P I hope I got everything that is necessary. And that everything is all good...
Name: Arthur Xavier Martino Vastria II
Aliases: Art, Xavier
Age: 18
Place of Origin: Azure's Gate
Gender: Male
Specialty: Protection Magic
Roles & Rank: Noble
Height: 5'4
Weight: 114 lbs
Build: Thin, Fine-Boned
Eyes: Steel-Blue
Hair: Silver
Skin Tone: Pale
Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: None
Day To Day Attire: Tailored Suits in various blues, greys, and blacks as his father dictates. Arthur would rather be wearing things that are a bit looser and easier to move in.
Strengths: Max of 3 (Physically based)
- Small Stature: Arthur's small size makes him a harder target to hit from range and, with a little effort, allow for him to fit into places otherwise inaccessible.
- Mental Acuity: Arthur's sharp mind and quick wit make him a brilliant candidate for learning magic.
Weaknesses: Minimal of 2 (Physically based)
- Easily Fatigued: A life of nobility comes with being waited on hand and foot. Although not physically weak, per se, physical activity does exhaust Arthur more quickly and for longer periods than others.
- Apathetic: Arthur hasn't really had something to give his all towards, making him uninterested in many things.
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Relationship Status: Single
Personality:
Arthur is a rather reserved young man, tactfully absorbing the lessons presented by his father in preparation for the future... or at least that's what Arthur's father believes. Instead, Arthur is kind, compassionate, and would rather be a Knight standing guard for the city he grew up in. He knows that his sisters' status as Knights will keep the family name in Noble status far longer than this shortsighted arrangement between his father and some shopkeepers around Azure's Gate.
Arthur's dream to be helpful to his city keeps him in Azure's Gate as without that allegiance, Arthur would have left to pursue happiness elsewhere. It would also help if he didn't feel guilty for some of the things he's done and hides.
Habits:
- Arthur tugs at his collar when uncomfortable and nervous.
- Arthur meditates on life before sleeping.
Hobbies:
- Reading
Fears:
- Nyctophobia/Darkness
- Aquaphobia/Water
Likes:
- Summer Weather
- Rain
- Good Food
- Small Dogs
- The Knights of Azure's Gate
Dislikes:
- Thunder
- His Father
- Spicy Food
- Aggressive People
- Cats
Parents:
- Arthur's father is alive and well, overseeing the finances of a the 'Vastria Empire,' a few tailors around Azure's Gate. Arthur has been forced into learning about the family business, even though his older sisters would be better at running it than he would be, and it has caused a bit of resentment towards his father. Oh... His father is his namesake... so there's that.
- Arthur's mother helps run the 'Vastria Empire' alongside his father. She, however, would rather Arthur be allowed to pursue the things he enjoyed and explore the magic heritage that he has. Arthur loves her, even if he doesn't say it often. Arthur also believes that his mother would be better at running the business than his father.
Siblings:
- Izabelle Nicolle Vastria - Eldest sister, 24 - They were close, but after Izabelle was promoted to Knight Rank 1st, she's been a bit too busy to be home. Arthur misses her and times like the ones they shared previously, but wouldn't say that to anyone.
- Sophia Rebecca Vastria - Older sister, 22 - A bit distant after the archery incident, Sophia poured herself into catching up to Izabelle. She's only started her trek through Knighthood at Knight Rank 3rd. Arthur is still trying to figure out how to apologize for shooting her in the shoulder with an arrow.
Childhood: Arthur's childhood doesn't have much to note. Born to a father who's ego leaves Arthur with the same name and a mother with notable talent for the arcane arts. Two older sisters, each who befriended and adored Arthur; doing what they were able to help raise him. At 12 years of age, his father begun to induct him into the family business, bringing him along to meetings with store owners, teaching him how to handle money. Arthur found most of this to be boring and told his father as such, even saying that Izabelle seemed more interested in doing this than he was. Arthur's father told him that only he could run the 'Vastria Empire' and sent him away, calling butlers and servants to keep a tighter leash on Arthur. This, in turn, caused Arthur to be more distant and begin lying to get out of doing what his father wished.
Adulthood: As he's just begun his trek into adulthood, the only real notable bit would be his grandfather teaching him Barrier and his grandfather's passing. His grandfather didn't really have too much of an impact on his life, but he cherishes the small piece that his grandfather left.
Special Moments: Learning Barrier from his grandfather, His sisters being inducted into the Knights.
Current Events: While skipping out on one of his father's meetings, Arthur noticed Knights returning to Azure's Gate, The Woodwraith and The Storming Queen being notable among them. As he wanted to know what was going on, he followed the knights up to the... palace? ... to hear the queen, whether or not he was supposed to be there.
Character Quote: Truth is everybody is going to hurt you: you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.

Skills
A listing of skills, such as horseback riding or cooking. Levels include novice, apprentice, journeyman, expert, master.
- Archery (Novice): Sophia attempted, once, to teach Arthur how to use a bow and arrow. This ended with an injured Sophia and a very apologetic Arthur. He did learn a little, but he hasn't attempted since.
- Deception (Apprentice): Feigning innocence, misleading others, Lying. Arthur may not be great at any of it, but he's been believed more often lately. Maybe he's getting better.
- Finances (Novice): Arthur has been forced to learn about this by his father as he's capable of running the 'Vastria Empire.' Arthur hates finances but knows a small amount about spending and saving money well.
- Magic Arts (Apprentice): Both Arthur's mother and grandfather saw Arthur's affinity for the Magical Arts. Books of spells, Magical items, and stories of magic have interested Arthur forever. If it wasn't for Arthur's father attempting to make Arthur the next head of the family business, Arthur might have pursued Knighthood.
Talents & Powers
A listing of unique talents, magic, or possessions. Royalty and Knight Commands may have two major and two minor. Knights 1st rank may have one major and two minor. Knights 2nd rank may have two minor. Knights 3rd rank may have one minor. Nobles may have one minor.
- Barrier (Power/Minor): A very basic, but precious, protection spell taught to Arthur by his late grandfather. It creates a small circle, buckler-esque in size, of blue energy capable of blocking most physical assaults. Force that would cause the barrier to break can be transferred to Arthur, injuring him. The barrier has a limited range of about 50 feet and can be moved around as long as Arthur focuses on doing so. If Arthur stops focusing on the barrier, it will dissipate after a few seconds.

- Izabelle Nicolle Vastria - Eldest sister, 24 - They were close, but after Izabelle was promoted to Knight Rank 1st, she's been a bit too busy to be home. Arthur misses her and times like the ones they shared previously, but wouldn't say that to anyone.
- Sophia Rebecca Vastria - Older sister, 22 - A bit distant after the archery incident, Sophia poured herself into catching up to Izabelle. She's only started her trek through Knighthood at Knight Rank 3rd. Arthur is still trying to figure out how to apologize for shooting her in the shoulder with an arrow.
Childhood: Arthur's childhood doesn't have much to note. Born to a father who's ego leaves Arthur with the same name and a mother with notable talent for the arcane arts. Two older sisters, each who befriended and adored Arthur; doing what they were able to help raise him. At 12 years of age, his father begun to induct him into the family business, bringing him along to meetings with store owners, teaching him how to handle money. Arthur found most of this to be boring and told his father as such, even saying that Izabelle seemed more interested in doing this than he was. Arthur's father told him that only he could run the 'Vastria Empire' and sent him away, calling butlers and servants to keep a tighter leash on Arthur. This, in turn, caused Arthur to be more distant and begin lying to get out of doing what his father wished.
Adulthood: As he's just begun his trek into adulthood, the only real notable bit would be his grandfather teaching him Barrier and his grandfather's passing. His grandfather didn't really have too much of an impact on his life, but he cherishes the small piece that his grandfather left.
Special Moments: Learning Barrier from his grandfather, His sisters being inducted into the Knights.
Current Events: While skipping out on one of his father's meetings, Arthur noticed Knights returning to Azure's Gate, The Woodwraith and The Storming Queen being notable among them. As he wanted to know what was going on, he followed the knights up to the... palace? ... to hear the queen, whether or not he was supposed to be there.

Posting her again now that it's filled out. Well, other than relations which I can discuss and fill in as characters come in. But for all intents and purposes here is the queen.Celosia SerafineCharacter Summary
Name: Celosia Akodo Serafine
Aliases: Her Majesty; Highness
Age: 42
Place of Origin: Azure's Gate
Gender: Female
Speciality: Magic
Roles & Rank: Royalty, Queen of Azure's GatePhysical Attributes
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 137lbs
Build: Slender, graceful, even in her maturing years she has a body that, while showing the signs of aging, is still youthful - in appearance and certainly not in other other capacity.
Eyes: A light shade of violet.
Hair: Where once it was a raven black now it is lighter in shade, leading to a natural greying down the line. At present it is light black.
Skin Tone: Ivory white, though not overly pale.
Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: No ink mars her skin and the only jewelry are the various accessories she often wears - from earrings down to rings and necklaces, hardly what one could consider true piercings. There is a long-since healed scar on her back, spreading from shoulder blade to halfway down her back. The scar is healed, but the imprint remains.
Day To Day Attire: Typically Celosia will be found in fine raiment often tinted a regal purple to match her eyes and not to conflict with her skin. These clothes are often dresses with loose sleeves and a comfortable fit, but on more than one occasion she will dress down into a simple, but still fine in quality, trousers and matching top. Formal wear, such as when she is attending to her duties atop the throne or attending matters of court, consists of dresswear, with flowing sashes though tailored in such a way as to not drag along the ground. Elegance, but graceful is the key.
Strengths: Magic: Her greatest strength is her command of the mystic and arcane arts, weaving spells as if they were old hat. Which, to her, they are.
Tactics: Having been groomed to be the queen from a rather young age, it is no surprise that she has a military mind - it is naive to think conflict is inevitable in the world after all. She prefers to sit in on matters of military and offer her suggestions even if they are not asked of her.
Grace: Many have heard the tales of Queen Celosia's bladedancing - moreso in her youthful days - but few have truly seen her in action. She still has it, albeit with slower motions and more deliberate steps, and only the ones with agendas against her can deny that the queen has grace befitting one of her stature - and possibly beyond.
Weaknesses: Physical and Martial Arts: Though she has training with a blade, her affinity for magic and mental affairs meant she shirked other aspects of her tutelage days. She cannot do much in the ways of heavy lifting and even her battle attire - when she needs such a thing - is light to allow for freedom of movement rather than sturdy protection.
Age: Though she might appear young, her age is catching up with her. She cannot tap into her magical abilities or her bladedancing for extended periods any longer without exhausting herself or worse. She is not frail or infirm, but neither is she the same woman that once captivated crowds at royal tourneys.Psychological AttributesWise * Diplomatic * Concerned * Just
Sexuality: Bisexual. In her younger days she was known, or at least the rumors have stated such, to have suitors both male and female. Some have even said she married her king not for love but for the purposes of an heiress - which isn't the most unheard of thing.
Relationship Status: Married.
Personality: Celosia considers herself a fair ruler, but believing that matters could be so easily divided into fair and unfair would make her naive. Naive is not a trait that befalls the queen; wise, however is. She is an intelligent woman, literate and diplomatic in many regards, but with a sincere love of arts and in artistic displays - often partaking in them herself. She is not without her faults, of course, and her love of family often has her making decisions with her emotions first rather than her logic and reason.
Celosia has no love of those who betray her good nature, be it those who engage in criminal acts within her realm or those who would betray her. Some have considered her cruel for her ironclad stance on punishment - that no crime goes unpunished (with the severity of the punishment determined at the hearing) but she insists that everything she does is for the security and safety of her people, whom she would defend with her life.
She is nothing without her citizens and subjects and will often make appearances amongst the people to ensure that they are not forgotten. Her attempts to ensure that everyone is safe, that everyone favors her, might make her seem obsessed with her own status but if there was any word that could describe the queen it would certainly not be arrogant.
Habits: Often Celosia will tap her index finger against her cheek when listening to others. She isn't aware she is doing it but many have assumed it means she is bored at their ramblings. Which isn't...always untrue. Another of her habits is snapping her fingers when summoning or dismissing someone. A simple snap that, at times, has come off as rude to those who are unaware of this rather uncommon habit.
Hobbies: Dancing, if only to prove she still has it. Whenever there is a ball or other festivities, the night hasn't truly begun until Celosia graces the dance floor with her presence. Theater, particularly observing it, is a particular favorite of hers. She rather enjoys watching the actors and getting invested in the twists and turns of a truly moving production. Celosia has an appreciation for the fine arts, believing that artists have just as much a place in her Queendom as the warriors. Warriors protect the people; artists keep them.
Fears: The premature death of her children. Their lives are more valuable than her own, no matter what her advisers say on the matter.
Rodents. Ever since she was a child and had a frightful encounter with a rat when she snuck into the larder she has hated rodents of any size. Something about their tails just...bothers her. And the way they skitter about...it's disgusting.
Likes: Her family, in particular her children
Games of strategy, such as chess
The fine arts
Cold beverages
Jewelry, especially earrings
The scent of lavender
Dislikes: Blistering cold weather
Excruciatingly long council meetings
Sour or bitter foods
Those who call her daughter Willow 'lame' due to her muteness.
Unflattering or otherwise ugly clothing.
Horseback riding.
Sleeping in nature, such as when out on a journey and having to camp due to the lack of an inn.SkillsA listing of skills, such as horseback riding or cooking. Levels include novice, apprentice, journeyman, expert, master.
- Magic Arts (Master): Fitting for one who took the magical pursuits, years of study and practice have made Queen Celosia highly proficient at weaving spells. Elemental magics and illusions are her strongest suit with those magics in the field of restoration being her weakest understanding.
- Tactical Planning (Expert): Celosia does have military advisers but even they often defer to her when they feel she knows best. She loves strategy, even simply playing games of strategy with her family or members of her court and council.
- Diplomacy (Expert): One of the most important aspects of the job is maintaining relationships with other nations of the world, as such she has a deft hand and a defter tongue when it comes to foreign relations. To her credit, Azure's Gate hasn't seen conflict with the other nations while under her reign so she must be doing something right. Not to say that threats haven't been leveled...
- Swordsmanship (Apprentice): She knows how to use her very particular blade but she has a distinct lack of ability when it comes to the skillful art of the blade.
- Horseback Riding (Apprentice): Anytime Celosia mounts up it is a gamble if she will stay on top for more than a handful of seconds at a time. Riding is not one of her strong suits but as she refuses to travel by carriage or being carried - as that draws attention and is asking too much of her people - she has to keep getting back on the horse.
- Literacy (Master): Reading and writing were one of the first things she was taught by her teachers and it's something she wishes to personally teach her children - particularly her heiress. She has a fondness for reading plays and she helps maintain diplomacy with her clever wordplay in letters to other leaders.
Talents & PowersA listing of unique talents, magic, or posscessions. Royalty and Knight Commands may have two major and two minor. Knights 1st rank may have one major and two minor. Knights 2nd rank may have two minor. Knights 3rd rank may have one minor. Nobles may have one minor.
- Celosia's Chagrin (Weapon/Minor): Her rapier, the thin, sharp blade she uses in her bladedancing displays and demonstrations. It was made specifically for her by the finest smith in Azure's Gate when she was struggling with the heavier blades in the armory during training. It doubles as a catalyst with which to channel her spells. It is sharpest at the point which makes it a rather dangerous thrusting weapon and rather useless when engaged in anything other than one-on-one duels. But it is a blade that has been at her side since her youth, and still the silver is as fine as the day it was presented to her.
- Tome of the Arcane (Artitfact/Major): Always at her side is a tome with various spells and incantations and information on runes and the like. She has committed most of it to memory, particularly the combat spells, but it never hurts to use it as a referral. The tome itself is magical and always seems to know which page Celosia needs at any given moment. It might have a mind of its own, or it might be a simple....not so simple enchantment.
- Call of the Elements (Power/Major): Celosia's affinity for magic comes to manifest itself here. Though it takes a considerable amount of effort, when she channels her arcane abilities she can call upon the various elements to do her bidding, be it calling up a fury of wind to upend those in her path or a deluge of water to quell even the fiercest of flames. Some say it is the Queen's magic that keeps Azure's Gate afloat. Celosia will let them keep on thinking that if they so desire. Using the full force of the elements will leave her exhausted, it is for desperate times. Until then, she has her Tome and her arsenal of less taxing spells.
- Raiment of the Royals (Item/Minor): Her combat attire, for lack of a better term. It is silk in make and does not offer up protections against blades. What it does, other than looking stylish and coming with its own earring accessories, is allow Celosia to move swiftly and easily, and billow when she is powering up her spells thanks to an enchantment weaved into the fabric. Though the court tailors made the clothing at Celosia's request, there are patches present; wear and tear have set in but every time a rip or hole appeared she let Willow practice her clothes-making on it.
History
Parents: Celosia had a decent relationship with her parents, when she saw them, of course. She knew her parents loved her but that their duties to the queendom always came first, which was why she spent much of her time with her tutors and court appointed playmates. After the passing of her mother and Celosia's subsequent coronation, she made a promise that she would make time for her children.
Siblings: Celosia's sister, knowing she was not the next in line for the throne thanks to the order of birth, had leave to travel the realm. Celosia believes she is a sellsword or a bard or some such, but Aunt Linnea does not often get discussed.
Childhood: Much of Celosia's childhood was spent in various forms of study. It was hardly ideal but a necessary evil considering her position. She had time to herself, of course, and used it as wisely as she could. Sneaking around, trying to pilfer food from the larders or making childhood promises to her playmates, sneaking kisses to the cheek on a dare or a whim. Her childhood certainly had their moments of innocent whimsy inbetween the lessons on court etiquette and diplomacy.
Adulthood: Celosia's adult life has been a stressful one; when you become a young queen you are forced to grow up fast. Her marriage and birth of Willow Rose were the first memories of her adult life, other than her position as queen, of course. Her study didn't lesson even as she sat the throne, and her adult life was when her command of magic came into its own.
Special Moments: Some might think her ascension is the standout moment of her life, but in truth it was the birth of her daughter. She loves Willow and often feels she is a bit over protective of her, but the moment when she held her daughter in her arms still brings her unrivaled joy.
Not even her marriage measured up, considering much of her smiling that day was false. Her coronation and subsequent banquet would be a decent second place.
Current Events: The increasing news and sightings of the strange infected sorts has put a great deal of worry on Celosia's mind. She has recalled her Knight Commanders to discuss and potentially contain this threat. She is worried, and understandably so. And if that wasn't bad enough, there is discussion of Willow Rose desiring to spend more time amongst knights...which is as unbecoming as it is potentially dangerous...Relations* ☠ Enemy * ⚜ Unfriendly * ☯ Neutral * ☮ Friends * ღ Ally * ♥ Crush/Significant Other *

@HylianRose As far as the king goes I left it open in case someone wanted to play him, but otherwise I'll worry about the king and treat him as an NPC as needed. Siblings is in a similar situation but I hinted that Willow isn't an only child but she could be the eldest. I intended on mentioning the other children come IC time.

-cough-
Name: Willow Rose
Aliases: Willy, Will, Bark, Tree
Age: 20
Place of Origin:Azure's Gate
Gender: Female
Speciality: Stealth
Roles & Rank: Royalty
Height: 5'4
Weight: 124 lbs
Build: Frail
Eyes: Dark Blue (Almost Purple)
Hair: Jet Black, Wavy, Thick, and Long
Skin Tone: Porcelain
Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: Willow has three odd scars across her neck. No one remembers how she acquired them but since they appeared, she has been unable to speak.
Day To Day Attire: Willow wears a lot of mute colored dresses with boots for practicality. She doesn't like to wear overly colorful things as she thinks they attract too much attention to her. She's often found wearing browns and greens. She always wears a bracelet her grandfather gave her long ago, seemingly having belonged to her grandmother. It is a bronze metal piece with a blue stone inlain. She hardly ever takes it off.
Strengths:
Silent - Willow is very light footed and can get around most anywhere without anyone spotting her. She's also been told she has the uncanny ability to hide both her physical appearance and her 'aura', whatever that is.
Observant - Perks to being barely noticable, you get to see a lot. Willow has a lot of knowledge of a lot of things through her years of watching others silently. She knows a lot about a lot of people and can dig dirt on pretty much anyone. Too bad this pretty little bird can't sing.
Flexible - Willow is flexible and as such can fit into weird spaces and positions that most people can't.
Weaknesses:
Mute - Willow can't talk.
Frail - Willow has a rather weak frame and doesn't have a lot of strength.
Sexuality: Bisexual
Relationship Status: Taken
Personality:
Willow is quiet, and not just because she's mute. Everything about her is quiet as if she's trying very hard to stop existing, to turn invisible to the world. She absolutely hates being the center of attention and much prefers a backseat sort of role in things. She's not really afraid to speak up, but hates the attention it can give her sometimes. She has a great fear of being rejected and mocked and that is why she starts to tense up when in large crowds especially if she's standing in front of said crowd.
That being said, Willow is loyal to a fault. Even if her mother killed someone, she'd swear up and down that her mother could do no such thing and would never believe anyone that told her. She would rather lie to herself than admit that someone she loves is in the wrong. Despite hating the limelight, Willow does not hesitate to put herself in harms way to protect someone she loves or cares for. She's not the most athletic royal either and so even though she tries to protect others, she's quite shit at it, often just making the situation worse.
Willow is also very observant. She loves to people watch, especially when no one thinks she's there. She'd probably neer tell anyone the secrets she knows, but she's more than content just knowing she knows them. She thinks there's power in knowing.
Habits:
-Running her fingers through her hair.
-Biting her lip when nervous.

Siblings:
Amaryllis (Sister) (11)

Childhood: She disappeared for some time and when she reappeared, she had lost her voice and gained the scars on her neck.
Adulthood: Nothing of note, yet.
Special Moments:
-The day her grandfather handed her the bracelet.
-The first day she held Eliza's hand. Nevermind that they were being chased by a group of bandits. It was sweet.
Current Events: Willow is trying to convince her mother to let her hang out with the knights rather than attend balls and dinners.

Willow is also very observant. She loves to people watch, especially when no one thinks she's there. She'd probably neer tell anyone the secrets she knows, but she's more than content just knowing she knows them. She thinks there's power in knowing.
