Character psychology

Sexuality:
Heteroflexible
Relationship Status:
Single
Personality:

She behaves in an airheaded and foolish way. Rather enjoying tea parties or galas. She appears to be easily manipulated or controlled by her Court and others around her. She smiles often and giggles too much. Good, kind, and benevolent. Her knowledge of the world seems rather closed and her trust in people naive.

But, behind the mask of stupidity hides a happy, bubbly, and vivacious woman. In her heart she is wild. She would much rather be riding horses and running barefoot through grass fields than spend another day doing needlepoint and watching theatre. She loves to feel the wind in her hair and the dirt between her toes. Dancing around a fire, drinking, and carnal delights are her preferred form of celebration. Climbing trees and getting dirty are second nature to her, but this has been stuffed down and tied tightly into a corset. She is a woman who believes in violence and sacrifice if it is for the right cause. Death is just as an important part of the cycle as life. She loves a good joke.

She doesn't have any qualms or misgivings towards any other living being, except perhaps Dorothea and her pets. However, if she is crossed or someone she cares about is hurt she will hunt down the offender and flay them, heal them, and then flay them some more. (By no means is she a squeamish woman.) She cares not what would happen to her own person as long as vengeance is had. She is also willing to sacrifice for the sake of her goals. The loss of one is nothing to the loss of many. That being said, she is compassionate and understanding. Her hatred is hard earned and she will always attempt to put herself in the other's shoes. There are actions those take in order to keep those they love happy and healthy. It is just as important to understand that their actions do come with a consequence.

Histoy

Background:
She was born to the court and to a family that aligned themselves with Dorothea. She was the daughter of a Queen and herself a Queen. She was doted on and spoiled as a babe. As she grew older she showed strong promise in her abilities but was wild by nature. It took many punishments to finally groom the girl into being able to sit still long enough to read a book. Once she discovered the magic of the written word she was insatiable. At her birthright, she received the sapphire jewel. She was in love with it, cherished it, and would often stare into the blue depths. She studied healing both through the jewel and more traditional versions of healing, believing a place should be had for both. She also soaked up information regarding the ruling and caring for her territory. She studied economics, agriculture, and diplomacy. She wished to do right by her people.

Seeing her daughter's power, her Queen mother hid her away - often sending her to nicer areas of the realm. Fatima was never allowed to develop her own court. For the first time, her mother actually feared Dorothea and what she might do to her daughter. But, Fatima being the wild thing she was, would often go off and play with the other children. And as she got older, began to see the hardships her people were put through. And her heart was saddened.

At her offering, it was the Grey jewel that chose her. Her mother felt more desperate to hide her, using members of her own court to keep her safe. She was made to wear her Sapphire for the sake of her safety and to always keep her Grey hidden. No longer was her guard lax enough that she was able to slip away - though she tried. She was truly awakened one day when a small, dirty street urchin was run over by her carriage but no one seemed to care or give a second thought to it. The lack of appreciation for life outraged her. And she disappeared from the realm to go among the people of her territory and to pay back the life of the child that was killed. Though Fatima was small, she worked fields and sewed clothes. She learned to cook during these adventures and lived as the people. She came to truly understand their hardships and the lack of love the reigning class had for this realm and its people.

Fatima was eventually found by her family after about 50 years (at about age 205) and returned to her home. She vowed that she would do all in her power to make things right and change this realm for the better. The time for decadence was over. She had to focus and forget her wild ways if she wanted to help her people. Her mother's death has left her in a position to gain the sort of power she requires as the Queen of her village. Now she must navigate the nuances of the court and attempt to rise in power.

Circus of The Supernatural

The Fortune Teller

Their True Name

Ada Bordon

Their Stage Name

Mistress Ada

The Date they Joined the Circus:

2/15/1806

The Act they perform when not on the combat team

She is the fortune teller. The seer of the future and the past. Using cards or the crystal ball she can find out your future happiness or if you will marry the love of your life. Ada is also prone to fits in which she will see the future. She does not go into combat but rather helps locate evil, helpful persons and/or artefacts.

The Compulsions

To look into the future, or even the past, the cost is a hefty one. There were many rules set upon her to receive her gift.

-Never deny those who wish to know their fortune.
-Never tell a person if they are to die.
-Always carry burning incense or have it lit in your presence.
-Always carry your deck of cards.
-When the universe must speak, you will listen. The future will come regardless of timing or place or your personal safety. Do not try to fight the future.

Why they Joined the Circus.

To not have her hands chopped off as a cheat, she joined the circus. The ringmaster was kind enough to offer that as an alternative.

Their Biography

She started life in Transylvania. Her parents poor farmers and extremely religious. She loathed her life and was a rather naughty girl. When a band of romani came through she ran away with them, never looking back. She soon found her way to France. The Romani people taught her all of the tricks of the trade. And what she was best at was conning.

She plied her trade of fortune telling, weaving lies and taking money. Unfortunately for her, she told a fortune to the wrong man. What she said never came to pass. She was arrested and her hand was to be removed for her crime. The ringmaster, in a sense, saved her. She has since worked at the circus and never looked back. Here Ada wants for nothing. Always clothed and always good food to eat. She does not think of going back to the human world.

Their Connections

- Ada is rather motherly to her fellow buskers. She gives advice and a friendly shoulder to cry upon. She soothes broken hearts and mends relationships. She pours water on fights and offers a place for one to hide away should they need respite for a bit. The circus people are her kin and she would do anything for them. Since she cannot join in the fight she has made it her mission to give them all she can otherwise.

Their Audition

- Excitement filled Carmen's gut as she walked toward the beautiful gypsy wagon. It was covered in stars, constellations, swirling magic, and herbs hung from the roof. Painted above the door were the words "Fortune Teller." Should she go in and ask? Wasn't it a bit stupid? It wasn't real, right? She sighed, heartened herself, and knocked on the door.

"Come in," said a soft, silky voice. It was deeper than she would have expected, raspy but in a pleasant way. Carmen pushed open the door and trails of smoke fell over her. The scent was divine and as she entered it helped bring her into this little world. The door shut behind her. Before her was a plush room of mismatched blankets and pillows. Gauzy cloths of varying muted colors hung around the sides of the wagon, letting in only a little light from the carnival outside. The only other lights were from lanterns which hung from the ceiling. Despite it being a mere wooden wagon, Carmen was surprised that no noise from the outside world penetrated this sacred space. Instead, she could only hear the soft trickle of water from a fountain that she could not see.

At the low table in the center of the room sat a woman. She had lightly tanned skin, wild black hair laced with threads, feathers, bells, and beads. Her eyes were mossy green and her thick lips hooker red. Carmen thought her lovely and exactly what she would have expected. "Greetings to you, little one," said the woman. Her voice held an accent similar to that of a person from Transylvania. "Please sit and tell me what it is your heart desires to know." The woman raised a ring-laden hand and gestured to the pillow on the floor across from her.

Carmen sat cross-legged, took a deep breath, and said, "I want to know if the guy I like and I will be together." Her words came out in a jumbled rush and she blushed darkly. The woman let out a soft laugh that reminded Carmen of velvet or perhaps fire warmed furs.

"A question of love, my darling. How wonderful. I shall look for you." The woman slid a deck of cards across the table. "Think of your question as you shuffle. And when you feel it is time to stop. Stop." Carmen thought about the boy she liked as she moved the cards around in her hands. She thought about a future together. She thought about- a card popped out of her hands and landed on the table.

"Ah. Stop. The universe tells us we are done." The woman lifted the card and flipped it over. The tower. "Most interesting," she breathed and took the rest of the cards from the girl. She then laid them out, reading each in turn. Carmen watched as the woman flipped cards but did not speak. She thought she saw a hint of concern cross the woman's face.

"What is it?" Carmen asked.

"Ah... My dear child. I'm afraid your love is to be short-lived. But, it will be a positive experience for you. Yes, lovely girl. You and your love shall be together, even if it is brief."

"Really!?" Carmen shot up, her heart fluttering with the possibility. "Thank you so much! How much do I owe you?"

"Nothing, nothing. Just the promise to live your life happy and to the fullest." Carmen sprinted from the wagon, pulling her phone from her pocket to send out a text. What she did not see was the sad expression on Ada's face as her fingers touched the death card which lay over the tower.

Oh nice! Well, if it's okay I place a hold whilst I create~

Circus of The Supernatural

By chance, are you still searching for cast members? I was thinking the fortune teller would be quite fun, if it has not been taken~

Palm Beach Royals: Senior Year

@Inkarnate *High five* He also holds a yearly christmas party for the company as well as a summer outing. Just as a thank you to his staff. I imagine the pair of them would tend to stick together during these parties while the adults get drunky face and the small children run rampant.

Palm Beach Royals: Senior Year

@Inkarnate For sure! Elliott own's his own practice so she can work either under him or perhaps be a partner!

Palm Beach Royals: Senior Year

@Erklings25 maybe the interned together in the past. Elliot has a private practice.

But yes! A friend with a penchant for schedules will help greatly!!

Palm Beach Royals: Senior Year

@Erklings25 I think Bea and he would make great friends! What do you think? I feel like she might have been one of the first people he would potentially make friends with - since she's messy and a bit out there. Thoughts?

Also, @spooner, I think she and Jules would be good friends too. I think she would always be trying to do Bea's make-up or get her to dress up. Which she would do begrudingly. I think she would get Bea into a lot of innocent trouble too.
