Heroes of Virtue ~ The Interest Check

Nayavanti, Lady of the Scales

Nayavanti Description ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ A woman sun-kissed by the golden sun, Nayavanti is the jewel of her community. A beautiful lady standing at an average height of 5'5'', her dark locks and obsidian eyes shine brightly in the daylight. Nayavanti tends to dress in brightly-coloured saree and matching mojari. Underneath that modest clothing is a lean, toned warrior's body, ready for fight or flight at a moment's notice. Accessories are limited to the necessary earrings, to show her heritage, and to have an easier time to battle. A Brief History ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Born as an only child, Nayavanti has always been gifted with the word of the law. That didn't mean she was always geared to bring fairness to people. At first it was helping people understand the rules. It was about bringing meaning and understanding to legal terms. Then it was watching her family suffer under an unfair ruler, seeing the community plagued by thieves and swindlers, and witnessing Mother Pacha deteriorate. Her little just heart couldn't take it anymore. Her talent became her sword, her words equipped her with a shield. She was fighting an uphill battle, but she had the noblesse oblige; her destiny has always been calling her from beyond. Looking Inside ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ "Natural laws have existed before time began. They must know actions have consequences. Mother Pacha does not have a voice, my role is to enact her will." An iron fist with a soft heart, Nayavanti listens to people and their woes. Her compassion for the slighted have left her to be an advocate amongst her people. She tends to sway and reason with people, citing the current and relevant laws to reason with naysayers. She may not have a warm face, but she has a gentle soul that follows trouble and tries to resolve them. What Decided It All ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Nayavanti saw the Mother come to her in whispering dream. It pleaded for her help and principled personality to right the wrongs in the world. Nayavanti answered, she agreed, she couldn't turn a blind eye, and certainly not from Mother Pacha. She was always on the path to make amends, it just attached an important reason to it. The Fine Print ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Whenever Nayavanti is stressed or emotional, she will write in a magical journal that she summons by her thoughts. It is written in fae language, meaning no-one can read it unless they are also a fairy, and if they can coerce her to summon it. Theme: Upwards to the Moon ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Most prominent virtue: Justice 'You only watch the news to find out where the fires are burning, which way the winds are blowing, and whether it will rain. Forecast ahead, but first: A mother's boy laid out in the street for hours. These facts don't wash away.' ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 24 ↕ Female ↕ Fairy ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 5'5'' ↕ 58kgs ↕ Lean, athletic ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Obsidian ↕ Black ↕ Warm ivory ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Psychology [+] Negative Traits: Sympathetic: It may seem like a strength, however Nayavanti's inability to say 'no' or turn a blind eye to suffering has often stretched her thin and stressed her out a lot. Rigid: Dealing with the laws and justice system meant that Nayavanti often only sees a 'right' way and 'wrong' way, in which she completely discards personal circumstances that lead people to the wrong path. Strong-willed: Attached to the 'my way or the high way' viewpoint, Nayavanti can come off as harsh and unfriendly at times. Her way of 'reasoning' is pushing a specific point across and hoping the other party sees it as truth. Fear: Unable to fulfil her goal and disappoint the people who trust in her. To become someone who wields words and rules as if they're the highest being. Goal: To defend and bring forth people's rights that were relinquished during these dark ages. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Basic Abilities [+] Intellect: Nayavanti is a genius, basically born with the tablet of laws in her little fists. This allows her to read faster, process thoughts faster, and speak faster. This makes her gifted in battle tactics and applications of martial techniques come to her naturally. Eloquent: Gifted with persuasiveness, Nayavanti is able to lead debates and conversations. This often translates to having witty talk, that may offend or humour most, sometimes both. Physical prowess: Unlike her intelligence, Nayavanti has trained in marital arts since young. It consists of various techniques meshed together, as most are considered lost knowledge. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Magical Abilities [+] Omen 'The hour of judgement has arrived.' Tapping into the darker parts of her lineage, Nayavanti is able to impose a 500 meters by 500 meters square area that debuffs enemies. The type of debuff depends on what Nayavanti chooses, and only be two max at a time. It can only affect perception, agility, healing, including self-regeneration, as well as physical and/or magical power. This lasts for up to 15 minutes. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Heroes of Virtue ~ The Interest Check

It's more like they have one specific virtue that they've used/developed even more than all the other virtues they have, and fortunately, it's something that could be used to keep them and their party going on their quest to save the world, as well as helping them give hope back to the people around them(and it doesn't even have to be a civilian; it could be an enemy/antagonist, if you're clever enough!). It's something useful for that whole thing like bravery, trust, or love, and not "showing up early to things" or "knowing how to spend money wisely", if you catch my drift! xD

@Dragonfly 9

That makes a lot of sense, and it sounds like an interesting mechanic.
Consider me on board as well, hopefully there's more people coming.

Trying to come out of a dry spell, so this looks fantastic to me.
Just to clarify, our characters 'represent' a virtue?
