Background:
Chaetris has spent most of her life down in the mines. Her mother was a thief sentenced to time in the mine. As another mouth to feed, Chaetris was sold to the mine for time off her mother's sentence. She has since been bought and sold repeatedly between mines.
As a young girl, nearly a hundred years ago,she was put to work crawling into the machinery of the mine to fix things that had broken. As she grew up, she learned more and more about how things worked. She would spend every penny that didn't go towards her room and board at the general store buying books.
She grew older and could no longer fit inside the machines. So she built simple constructs to do it for her. Her constructs grew in complexity and made things happen to her. She could stitch up her own wounds, or make herself shrink. And she continued to learn and tinker.
She would read anything that could teach her about the world. Dreaming of escaping to far off adventures, but never saving enough to buy her contract. As Chaetris aged, the became more aware of this and slowed her reading habits to save up to buy her freedom.
Now her contract is finally her own, but she can't afford to actually go anywhere. So she continues to work in the mines and buy her books (or borrow them from Allustan now that he's back), longing for the time when she'll be able to afford to explore on her own.
Appearance and Personality:
Chaetris is small for an elf, at a mere 5'6" her scrawny frame weighs in at under 100 pounds. The irises of her large inquisitive eyes are a bright violet that blends into the deep black of her massive pupils. Her sapphire hair is kept in a messy braid. Her long delicate fingers are always twitching or playing with a small wrench or screwdriver. Her face and clothes are smudged with dirt and grease that never seems to wash off.
Chaetris is a somewhat bookish, submissive woman. Quiet and awkward, she doesn't feel like she belongs. She is more comfortable with her constructs than she is with living people.
