✩ setting ✩
» A freezing stone tower east of the royal wing—guarded, forgotten, always watched.

» Chains, but not silence.

✩ appearance ✩
5'9", hourglass frame with a soldier’s core.
Silken black hair, often twisted into a loose knot with scraps of string or bone.
blue green eyes—piercing, calculating, always watching.
Olive skin, faintly bruised at the wrists where the manacles used to sit.
Velvet scraps and wool layers repurposed into strange, almost regal silhouettes.
Neck tattoos of inked vines peek from beneath her collar—rumors say they’re cursed.
She smells like wild herbs, ash, and old smoke. Like something that never fully washed out.

✩ personality ✩
Defiant. Witty. Unrepentant.
Knows more about the kingdom’s rot than the king himself.
Treats silence like a game—she fills it only when she wants to win something.
Doesn’t beg. Doesn’t explain. But she knows you listen.
Loyal once. Never again.
Would rather be feared than pitied.
Will cut you down with a smile, just to see if you’ll flinch.
Still memorizes the stars. Still braids herbs when she’s alone.
Not because she hopes. Just because she remembers.
