Description

In a fairy tale Rebecca would be the mournful siren haunting a rock above a graveyard of ships. Thick, tawny red hair is tamed to drift loose and free away from a delicate face prone to flush when speaking on one of her passions, of which there are many. Her dark and intelligent eyes smile easily, appreciative for the world's many wonders. She moves with a noblewoman's poise and puts to marked effect the graceful lines of her neck, arms, and legs.

Personality

Rebecca has opinions. Unlike many of her peers, however, those opinions are grounded in a mature appreciation for the world's complexity. To pull one thread is to unravel the sweater. She is more than just her mind, however: she is a good person. Patient, especially with her brother Volya, she understands the value of giving a person her full attention. She has many passions and enjoys sharing them with the world. Her childhood has taught her much about life's impermanence; this has only reinforced the importance of tradition to her and the desire to create something that the tides will not wash away.

Background

Rebecca has always been patient. Youngest of four, she was not doted upon, but instead got the scraps of her family's attention. She has worked for everything she has earned. She had done well to prove herself useful. Until thralldom reform began to sweep through the Mourning Isles. Her family's barony was small, and her eldest brother--the only to make it out of the Pirate War alive--was convinced that they would thrive under these changes. She argued otherwise, that they'd lose their workforce and reduce production if the system were to change.

Her parents took an entirely different approach to the problem, opting to empty the barony's coffers, abandon their lands and break their oaths. They disappeared. Briefly. The couple was tracked down in short order, tried and executed. Their remaining children were stripped of their noble titles, of their land, of even their family name and ousted from their home. Their liege made it plain that no amends could be made. Their kind would not be trusted again.

While Rebecca would prefer a safer, more traditional path back into proper nobility like marriage, she can't do that without a title, and the one she was born into is now forfeit. Tracing distant relations back to the Argentos of Nilanza, she has sworn herself to Malespero, hoping to eventually marry up and out and make a proper noble of herself once more.
