Name: Lyra
Race: Human
Position: Pet
Age: 4
Personality: curious, playful, giggly, cuddly, scared of spiders and doesn't like cold because it kills the pretty flowers. She doesn't really understand why everyone is so worried and serious, but as long as her keeper is there for her then she will not worry.
Background: A woman was desperate. She longed for a child to call her own, but years went by and it seemed she was barren. As a last resort, she petitioned a Fae using an ancient ritual. The Fae granted the human woman her wish to have a child. When the woman discovered she was pregnant she was overjoyed and spent months fixing everything perfectly for her child. Finally she gave birth to a beautiful baby girl, with hair like spun gold and crystal blue eyes.
To the woman's horror the day the child was weaned the Fae appeared again, this time to claim the child as theirs. The woman, so desperate to have her wish come true, had failed to comprehend the details of the deal : the deal was the HAVE a child, not KEEP the child.
Heartbroken, the woman handed over her precious baby and then killed herself in grief.
That baby has now grown into a beautiful precious child : Lyra.

Name: Jessalyn
Race: Human
Position: not yet known
Age: 19
Personality: Kind but withdrawn. She tends to trust people a little too quickly and tries to attribute good to them even if there is no basis for it. Since she is blind she enjoys anything and everything she can, especially music and food. She even enjoys feeling different textures and smelling different smells. Her favorite scents are sandalwood and honeysuckle and anyone who offers her strawberries is instantly her friend.
When she gets angry she doesn't yell, although her quiet reproof makes you wish she would.
Background: Jessalyn was born blind in a family of twelve children, so they had very little money and attention to go around. Her father treated her like couldn't do anything for herself and her mother either kept her in the house, never letting her go outside to play with the others or even go to school. Her brothers and sisters pretended like she wasn't there most of the time, being jealous of her.
Finally she got a scholarship at nineteen to go to collage. It was a battle and a half to get her parents to allow her to go but they finally conceded only after the university offered to provide her with a seeing eye dog under the stipulation she would bring him to schools in the area for demonstrations.
