About Amelia Yukino RoseAmelia's appearance.
background, quirks and family:
Amelia was born in Varisia and grew up in korvosa in a rather loving family. They were also well off enough to help her in her dream of going to study at the Acadamae and learning magic. Indeed, this was encouraged after she had shown some magical aptitude early on in life as well as a fondness for books in general. Amelia always seemed to prefer reading or thinking over socializing from about the age of 10. That's not to say she didn't like people, quite the contrary, she enjoyed being Around people. She enjoyed the warm feeling that she got from listening to others sharing tales and enjoying happy moments. In other words, she enjoyed the glow of other peoples happiness so to speak. She just was never particularly good at joining in those conversations, partly due to always trying to analyze people she spoke with and the fact that, after awhile, it just seemed draining on her. Indeed, she often would invite other kids to come read with her, though eventually most stopped accepting as she really meant to just read with them around. Eventually, she would take to reading books, both fiction and informational, in the tavern near her home. Enjoying the back drop of music, tales, or just conversations that seemed to set her at ease. While this didn't make her many close friends, it aided her in a plethora of ways. It made her extremely empathetic and open-minded, as reading so many stories showed her how each person usually had their own story and hardships they had went through. Their own hopes and view points. She learned of history from tales of knights and other hero figures of the surrounding area. It was these stories that sparked her interest in magic and lead to her asking her parents for a book on magic. After several weeks of reading and re-reading it, she finally managed to produce her first spell, a minor cantrip, but it was the crowning achievement of the now teenage girl and what led her to pursue magic further(particularly the schools of evocation and conjuration). Amelia would go to study at the Acadamae when she turned 16. She wasn't the most apt in the arcane arts, and her studies, while continuous, were often interrupted by forays into works of fiction or current event pamphlets. Her favorite area's of study (aside from the arcane) were the different planes, history, geography and maps, and art. She also became a little more of a conversationalist while studying there, especially if the topic of conversation were heroic tales or a discussion on the magical and arcane. Eventually, she began to use the minor tricks she had learned to aid her in small performances at the taverns she frequented, in part for practice and her own amusement, and another part to put smiles on peoples faces. As she had found that cheering other people up lifted her mood as well. Before officially joining the Acadamae, Amelia was given a little bun bun by her grandmother as a gift for being accepted. The Hare had a coat of the purest white fur, liken to fallen snow. She named him Frost, and over the course of her studies grew extremely close to him. Often times, one could find her sitting in her room, reading a book, with a small ball of white fluff curled up on her lap. During her time studying, she became close friends with a middle aged professor at the Acadamae by the name of Alaros Vatzz. He was a professor that presided over many of the arcane and historic areas of study. He took an interest in Amelia due to her firm, and often advanced, understanding of history and magic. Alongside her seemingly difficult time actually performing magic in relation to her understanding of it. He would soon take to giving her private lessons, as her determination and drive despite her seeming lack of ability inspired him. Eventually, he came to realize that, despite her grasp and understand of magic, the way she attempted to use magic went against her nature. She was trying to harness magic in a strict, logical process. Yet, when she felt it, it came far more naturally to her. Indeed, it seemed she was gifted in her ability to control magic, often allowing her to bring our more power from her spells than most of her peers. After this, her ability fully blossomed. It wasn't long after this that Alaros gave Amelia his old spell book. He noted how, many of the spells within were likely either beyond her grasp, or just to powerful for her to properly make use of. But, he believed that eventually, she would master all the spells within, and even add more powerful ones to it. She would eventually leave the Acadamae after 4 years of study and head to lastwall to visit her grandparents(her grandfather was a long time member of the knights, and now served several non-combat roles) who lived there, help some of the more unfortunate folk there, and maybe go exploring a bit. She had never been exceptionally fond of a lot of physical activity, but even she admitted she had grown, perhaps, a tiny bit bored sitting in her room, or at the tavern everyday. After all, wouldn't getting out there and living an adventure be even more fun and enjoyable than reading one!? Plus, she had read most of the tomes easily accessible to her that had interested her. From Lastwall, with both her grand fathers blessing, and her uncle going with her, she left to travel north. Her uncle was bringing both supplies and letters to the soldiers of the crusade, and Amelia, after determined insistence, had been allowed to tag along. Though truth be told, her grand-father was more then happy to let her go, as he believed seeing some of the things happening there would do the sheltered girl good. After their stop in kenabras, her next destination was hers to decide. She was estatic to finally get to travel and see the wonders and marvels the world had to offer. Even more so with her favorite (if her only) uncle watching over her and with her little ball of floof (a hare familiar) named frost. Though, she had little knowledge that her toughest trials, and grandest dreams, possibly awaited her. Personality: Book-worm, Kind, empathetic, intelligent, a little shy, whimsical, optimistic, hopeful, open-minded, diplomatic, friendly, caring, a bit clumsy and can have self-confidence issues about some things and has been known to over stress about some things. Still has an innocent/hopeful/child like outlook on life. Quirks/flaws
Family-
Alaryn Rose- Amelia's grandfather, a disciplined, realistic and tough man. He has been part of Lastwall's military since he was young. He has seen some of the worst the world has to throw at you, including demons of the worldwound when he fought in the north. While too old for much actual combat duty, he still works for Lastwall in a multitude of rolls. Aria Rose- A red-haired varisian beauty that captured Alexander's heart. She is adventurous at heart, she agreed to settle in one place with Alexander once she had Amelia. Alexander Rose- Son of Alaryn and an ex-knight of Lastwall. He had left the service on principle, as he had come to dislike military minded people and places. He believed the world would be better served with learning, kindness, and a firm, but caring, hand. Cedric Rose- A friendly, bad joke loving man. He has served a member of the crusades, though saw little combat during his time. He often has a joke for any occasion, and more often than not uses humor as a cover for pain. He has always enjoyed the simple comforts, food, drink, friend and sleep. While not one to shirk duties, he rarely goes out of his way to offer his services. Some even call him lazy. Despite this, he cares deeply for his friends and family, and while maybe not the first to rush in and help them plow a field, if serious trouble ever arises. He is the first to come to their aid.
