Appearance
Eve is a young girl with red hair and beautiful light purple eyes. Other than her strange colored eyes, anyway, Evelynn is a rather common looking girl: she's not beautiful nor ugly, of average height and not excessively slim. She really isn't one people remembers for her look, for good or bad.
Eve usually wears nice dresses and, since when Latanya gave it to her, a cloak adorned with a web pattern. Clashing with her eyes and hair, she usually wears black and dark blue outfits. At her side she always keeps a shoulder bag, in which she keeps most of her treasured things, including her grimoire: for that very reason, she never leaves the bag around, and checks it regularly.
Known facts
The following sections are about the known facts about Evelynn: her past (the early days in Visimontium) and what happened to her since when she left home. While Eve herself will tell others about those things, not everyone knows about them in detail, or at all. (It is then up to you to decide how much your character knows of these events.)
Early days in Visimontium
Evelynn was born and raised in Visimontium. Always submissive of nature, she followed her parents' advices about pretty much everything and after having received the proper education, she ended up studying magic from her father, despite her little interest in the matter. Her training left her in fact little time to play as she was used to, as she had to study, practice and help in her parents' shop of miscellanea, dealing in trinkets of all kinds, most of which of no importance at all.
With time, however, her interest in the arcane awaken and started to grow: after the first few boring months, in fact, she finally started to apply what she learned, starting to practice with simple cantrips. Under her father's tutelage, she focused on the school of Evocation, despite not devoting herself to it entirely, and furthered her studies about artifacts and magical trinkets. In a few years, she managed to reach his father's abilities in the arcane: her skills grew steadily, as did the size of her grimoire, filled with all sorts of simple spells. Unfortunately, this also coincided with the first assaults of the Illithid on Visimontium..
Thanks to the position of their shop and home, away from the Trust District, Evelynn and her parents managed to survive unhurt, even if fear was now a constant of their lives. Both scared and fascinated by what the Illithid could do, Eve stopped going out of her room at all, focusing her attention on books about abjuration and enchantment: at this point, she already surpassed her father's abilities, while not in terms of number and power of spells (she was, after all, able to access the First Circle only), at least in terms of knowledge about schools and quickness of mind.
As the Illithids continued their attacks, Eve grew more and more uneasy, up to the point when she couldn't bear living in fear anymore: she then decided to start traveling south. Other than looking for teachers to further her knowledge in the Arcane Arts, Evelynn was also interested in psionic abilities: both the Illithid and the members of the Luminous Order of the Mind opened her eyes on a world of endless possibilities. Having set her goals as such, she decided to settle for Mikona, having heard the Order had its tower there.
About Mikona and its pond
Upon arriving in Mikona after a really short travel - no more than a step inside a portal, thanks to her parents' money, and because of their apprehension for the dangers of the road - Evelynn could do nothing but wonder looking around herself. Having lived all her life so far in Visimontium, Mikona felt so different to her: knowing nothing about the new city and with just a few coins in her purse, she quickly decided to look around for work and directions. And indeed, the marketplace was the best place where to find both.
An hour after her arrival in the new city, she already managed to get a map and, carefully following it, managed to take care of some deliveries. Mostly they were quick jobs, nothing like what she envisioned her doing in her quest to further the knowledge of the arcane, or to start her training as a psionicist with the Luminous Order. Still, she needed money, and it would've been foolish to turn down those jobs. At the end of her first day, she found herself with a detailed knowledge of most districts of the city, and enough money to pay for an inn - and despite the cost, she chose the Noble Flair Inn, for position and the clean rooms.
