The Character
Arcadia “Cady” Rozaire • 7 of Hearts • The Augmenters"Do you want some help?"
♥♥♥
16 • Female
Appearance:Cady is a short girl, standing at a slender height of 5 feet 4½ inches, and that ½ inch is important, darnit! She tends to wear read, the color of the Heart, in any shade, though she somewhat prefers the lighter shades, and likes to mix in other colors to see what kinds of combinations look good. She always tends to make her outfits look happy, though whether that is on purpose or just a happy accident is unclear, even to her.
All of this said, it is also not uncommon to see her in working clothes, helping out in a garden, or with blood on her hands after helping skin the latest catch the hunters brought in. While she is working on something, she still usually wears a dress, but it is a more practical dress, made out of tougher materials, and usually with Stockings on underneath, with small sewn in pads to help cushion her knees. The style of dress she wears tends to stay pretty consistent between her normal dresses and her work clothes.
Personality:Cady is an innocent girl who loves life itself, but she is not
completely ignorant of what the world is truly like. She can usually be seen with a smile on her face and a spring in her step, and a cheerful disposition intended to cheer up anyone who is down.
If you asked someone to describe Cady, the first word that most people would think of is Helpful, and she certainly lives up to that one, always trying to be helpful, and will always try to help a friend when he or she is hurt, sad, suffering, or whatever. Other common answers would be kind and trustworthy, both qualities that she grew up with, and that she was taught from a young age. She also tends to be somewhat more practical girl, her innocence being more attributed to lack of experience with the darker, grittier, or plain old hidden aspects of life, rather than a lack of knowledge.
Biography:The Augmenters are a well-known Heart house specializing in ability inducing or reducing effects. The Rozaire family, a Cadet Branch of the Augmenters, is descendant from the Second Son of the Lumiere Family, Edmund Lumiere, and his wife Marie Rozaire. The two met when their Decks worked together on a case, something to do with a case of missing Forbidden Texts, and a Proven Student, a Spade, who disappeared at the same time. The magic runs strong in their blood just as it does in the Main Branch, and this has manifested in the pairs only daughter, Arcadia Rozaire.
Arcadia, known by most simply as Cady, grew up as the sole child of the Rozaire family, and as such had the privilege of never having to deal with sibling drama, unlike her cousin Tryll Lumiere, though she doesn’t know of the Lumiere sisters’ recent fight. Cady grew up surrounded by books, and developed what would turn into a lifelong love of stories, tales and legends. She also inherited her father’s magic, and as she learned magic, her particular style was shaped and moulded by her love of helping people, reaching out and touching their hearts by helping them, with whatever they were doing. This has also helped her learn a large number of practical skills as she grew up, as well as all of the education that goes with being Royalty, having helped with everything from skinning a deer to washing dishes to re-shelving books in her parents library.
With this diverse set of skills
not all of it acquired with her parent’s blessing, she found that she was learning very quickly, and swiftly running out of new Stories and Legends to read, think about, digest and eventually memorize. Along with her schooling, she practiced her magic, more often than not, by using it on those she was helping, enabling them to think faster, lift heavier things, jump farther, or even just simply accomplish a task better. She does make sure to ask for permission to do this, and has even practiced on herself, like the time she boosted her stamina while reading so that she could go for longer without taking a break. Having learned what her private tutors could teach her, and then some, Cady went to her parents and asked to go to the Spire to learn. Her parents, having been educated at the Spire themselves, gave her their blessing, and off she went.

She is considered an Expert in Tales and Legends, stemming from a childhood love of stories in all their forms, oral and written, which led her to devour her way through her parents library, and then every other collection of books on the subjects in question she could get her hands on, and even convincing storytellers that she met to pass on their stories to her.
