Description

Selene is a strikingly prurient figure, a paragon of feminine beauty with a perfect hourglass figure and a build balanced between athletic and curvacious. She seems young; perhaps in her early twenties if one had to hazard a guess, though there are no wrinkles, freckles, nor lines upon her face to betray a definite age. She seems ageless and fragile like a porcelain doll and though she seems young there is a definite sophistication about her that betrays a wisdom reaching past the experience of her apparent years. Every move is orchestrated with a certain serpentine grace; her head held high and her shoulders back, dripping confidence and poise from head to toe. When speaking, this air carries to her dulcet, honeyed voice - never too loud or hard, nor too soft but just moderate enough to be heard, provoking the most salacious of thoughts in the most even-tempered of men.

Her smooth pale skin bears no scars, tattoos, or many defining characteristic past its creamy texture and sheer perfection. Her long and painstakingly cared-for chocolate hair is almost always left down and falls to her elbows in loose, bouncy waves, framing her exquisite face with side-swept asymmetrical bangs. This face in turn is characterized by two key features: Her large, limpid sapphire eyes and exceptionally full cherub lips. She wears only a hint of makeup, but only to punctuate these two features - her eyes accentuated by smoky hues and wreathed by dramatic eyelashes. Her lips, while sometimes painted scarlet, usually bear only a hint of nude gloss.

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.
