Character Backstory:
Kira’s parents are both professors at the famous Alabaster Academy. Her mother Lille focuses on botany, while her father Aethilwald teaches several history courses. Both of them enjoy learning about the many wonders of this world, but Kira was always more interested in the stars. Astronomy isn’t one of the primary areas of study at the Academy, but there are a few esoteric professors who have been happy to indulge her curiosity. With the takeover of the city by Lord-Mayor Thrune, Kira worries about the effect his strange proclamations and recent institution of martial law will have on Kintargo. She joins the protest in Aria Park hoping to show Thrune that the city of Kintargo will not be so easily cowed. 10 Minute Background:
Step 1: write five things about your character’s concept and background, five things that you think are the most essential parts of your character. 1. Kira is a scholar at heart. While her primary focus is astronomy, she enjoys learning about any subject. 2. Kira has spent her entire life in Kintargo and loves the city. However, this doesn’t actually translate to knowing much about it. Her interests have always been academic in nature, so she’s spent very little time exploring. 3. As a gnome she’s innately drawn to the tricks and possibilities available from the magic school of illusion, while her academic mind seeks the patterns present everywhere in nature. She has little talent for arcane spell casting, but this has led her to sneak into some of the arcane magic classes at the Academy in hopes of figuring out new spells. 4. Kira worships Desna, but with the tightening of Chelaxian influence on the city is unable to fully express her faith. She does have a small butterfly pendant which she wears under her clothes at all times, and takes comfort in the fact that no matter how dark the times, the Starsong will always brighten her path. 5. Kira is gregarious, charming, and wants to believe the best of people. However her father has always impressed upon her the importance of being able to keep secrets, particularly once she learned about his membership in the Sacred Order of Archivists. As such she’s careful never to reveal too much to people she doesn’t trust. Step 2: List two goals for the character that you, as a player, think would be cool to see accomplished in-game. 1. Kira would like to see Lord-Mayor Thrune removed from power, and the reinstatement of the former mayor, Jilia Bainilus. She believes Thrune’s random whims are a danger to the city she loves, and with her father’s recent disappearance he’s evidently become a danger to her family as well. 2. Kira is working towards becoming a professor of astronomy at the Alabaster Academy. She hopes that her efforts will encourage the Academy to focus on astronomy as well as botany, medicine, and zoology. Step 3: List two secrets about your character. One is a secret the character knows, one is a secret that involves him but that he is not actually aware of yet. 1. (Character knows.) Aethilwald Namfoodle is a member of the Sacred Order of Archivists and has been missing ever since martial law was declared. Neither Kira nor Lille have been able to find out anything about what may have happened to him, or where he might be now. 2. (Character does not know.) Kira’s bitterest academic rival, Lucia Corvus, caught a glimpse of the butterfly pendant Kira always wears and deduced, (correctly), that Kira is a Desna worshipper. As a devout Asmodean and a member of the Chelish Citizen’s Group, she’s outraged by what she sees as a blatant defiance of the law. This has devolved what started as mere rivalry into hatred, and if she had the chance Lucia would gladly see Kira thrown into prison...or worse. Step 4: Describe three people that are tied to the character though blood, romance or honor. Two of them are friendly to the character, one is hostile. 1. Kira is very close to her mother Lille. They share a fascination for the natural world, even though that fascination manifests itself in different ways. 2. Danio Salvus is one of the few astronomy professors at the Academy. Kira has attended almost all of his classes and considers him to be a mentor. Other than her parents, he is the only person she’s confided in about the strange new powers she’s begun manifesting. 3. Kira once won an academic award which Lucia Corvus, another student, believed rightfully should have gone to her. Since then Lucia has repeatedly and loudly insisted that Kira was only allowed into the Academy due to nepotism. What trouble she’s caused so far has been limited to little more than schoolyard pranks, but Kira worries that she may eventually escalate. Step 5: Describe three memories that your character has. They don't have to be elaborate, but they should provide some context and flavor. 1. Kira’s fascination with the stars began early. When she was 10 her mother took her out of the city to gather some botanical specimens, and they camped out for the night. She’d never seen the stars like that. So close it seemed like you could reach out and touch them. Fascinated, she spent the whole night just watching the sky, (with her indulgent albeit very tired mother at her side). 2. One day while coming home from class she was accosted by a couple thugs. Frightened, she backed up into a fog bank that hadn’t been there before. Praising Desna for her rescue, she ran home as fast as she could. When she got there though, her panic only increased as she couldn’t understand a word her parents were saying...nor could they understand her. A little research revealed that she had been speaking Infernal, a language she’d never learned and yet somehow understood perfectly. Ever since she’s suffered from a nagging fear. Did that fog bank, (and the other powers she has since manifested), truly come from Desna, or did they come from a more sinister origin? 3. Shortly before Thrune instituted martial law and Aethilwald went missing, Kira woke up to her parents arguing. Lille was insisting that they needed to leave the city; it was getting too dangerous. Aethilwald countered that this was all the more reason to stay; they couldn’t just abandon the city to Thrune’s madness. Kira had never heard her normally mild-mannered father sound so passionate, and was struck by his clear devotion to Kintargo. The memory of that night is largely behind Kira’s decision to join the protests despite the possible danger. Her father refused to abandon Kintargo, and neither will she. Bot Me:
