Description
Graceful is often tossed around to describe many a noble woman, but none come close to the embodiment that Radiant Selene exudes. Her lucious mahogany hair spills across her shoulders, in that perfect length and softly curling way, to usher in fashion trends, and being on the edge of all. Long lashes frame eyes of the richest sapphire and sparkle with a life few have ever considered possible. Every so often, a hint of dark thought touches her features, a shadow gone almost before it appeared. Created of soft curves and fine lines, there is no one feature that stands out, yet the whole of the woman transcends any expectation or standard of beauty.
Personality
Selene is a woman, made of confidence and silken steel, quick to jest or comfort, laugh or shed a perfect tear. Never one to be out of place in any situation, she is both the most genuine and most mysterious woman one could meet. Her moods are as carefully crafted as her clothing, wearing them with the poise and grace one could expect from the premiere courtsean. Rarely aggressive, none would ever ascribe 'weak' to the woman, but her strength occasionally reflects the dangerous core of cold steel within. She knows when to make the double entendre, when to place a comforting hand on the shoulder, and she makes it all look as effortless as a summer breeze. Very few may know the true Selene, but it is very difficult to find a reason to dislike whoever they meet.
Background
Most nobles that meet Selene would never imagine she comes from humble roots as she effortlessly shows the elegance and poise expected of a courtesan among the nobility. Though she is talented at deflecting questions about her inauspicious beginnings with a deft shift of conversation or a joke that showcases her wit, a few do have a greater picture of the enigmatic woman. She was born to Grayson peasants in a simple farming village near Grayhold, living a comfortable but excruciatingly dull life until her early teens when she met a traveling troupe of players whom she impressed with an acting audition. Her natural gifts for acting took her all the way to the greatest of venues, the Black Rose Theater in Arx, where she impressed the previous Radiant of the Whisper House, the head of the most prestigious courtesan establishment, with her grace and flawless ability to portray a high noble lady on stage. The Radiant's offer to join her as a new courtesan and her personal protege surprised Selene, but she was fascinated enough by life in the capital and the splendor of the court to depart from the troupe and accept. Selene has since risen to become the Radiant herself and if her clients might ever so rarely catch the smallest glimmer of ambition in her lovely eyes, then that can probably be forgiven.
