Name : Amber
Age : 22
Eye colour : Bright blue
Hair : Blonde; messy in a charming way. Mid-back length
Body type : Thin and short; not much in the way of curves
Outfits : Clothes befitting a southern belle; cheerful colours, very 'sweet'. Long sleeves and short skirts, but shows little skin. Ballet flats or boots
Distinguishing features : Freckles. The ring (gold with aquamarine stone) was a gift from Erzulie. Button nose with rounded tip
Short personality : Loves literally everyone and wants them to be happy. Ruled by her emotions more than her mind; genuinely optimistic and is the last to become downtrodden in any situation. Often quiet, but never tries to be invisible

Amber is sweet as pie and twice as warm -- she genuinely loves every single person she meets, no matter if they feel the same way about her, and wants them to be happy.
She can find something good to try and nurture in even the biggest asshole, and will do so without hesitation. She doesn't judge for anything, and tries to understand actions even when she doesn't agree with them. She expresses herself shamelessly, and is eternally optimistic -- joy is in the tiny things, and there's plenty of those in Amber's life.
She is the first to step up when someone needs advice, a friendly ear, a shoulder to cry on or a hand when they stumble. Though ruled by her emotions, her advice is usually pretty spot-on.
She's not quite as independent and strong-willed as she wishes she was.
Amber doesn't like conflict, but will put that aside and stubbornly stand up for herself -- or others -- when she thinks it's warranted. In saying this, she will remain quiet in unfamiliar situations unless she's certain she knows better, because her first assumption is that whoever is in charge is far more qualified than her to make the decisions.
She's aware that -- as a mortal -- being included in the war is a great honour, and she considers herself blessed. No matter how inconvenient it is to her, she will do whatever she can to assist the scions, and provide as much moral support and mundane entertainment as is humanly possible.

After moving to the city, Amber became fascinated with Creole culture and Vodoun gods -- it didn't take long before she took it to the next step and started trying to get into the religion, worshipping the gods (Erzulie, specifically, above the others) and finding it deeply satisfying. Unfortunately, since she had no idea what she was doing, she ended up getting herself squarely in the shit.
By this point, though, Erzulie had taken notice of her and found her endearing -- she sent Cesia to rescue the poor mortal as one of her first missions, but Raf was the one who did the actual rescuing. Amber was delighted, if not a bit horrified, to discover the game she had been playing had very real, very serious consequences.
Everyone agreed that her staying would be a terrible, terrible idea, and she was loaded up with soda and pretzels in her car and sent on her way. BUT THEN, in a shocking twist of fate, the car broke down as she tried to round the corner.
Everyone then agreed that clearly her fate was bound to Raf's, and they were inseparable henceforth.

Raf
Raf and Amber are platonic, but very close -- she adores him and he adores her, and they spend a lot of time talking about very serious Real Life issues that have nothing to do with the war. She's a lot more talkative around him than the rest of the group, and is a staunch supporter of him being honest with Lexi. Virgil More than most, Amber succumbs to Virgil's charms and flirtatious smiles. She's well aware he's not interested in her, but that doesn't stop her blushing a bit and doing basically everything he asks. Not that she wouldn't anyway, but gosh, what a cutie!! Nic Amber thinks maybe that sometimes Nic isn't so happy she's around?? But he's a good leader and he makes good decisions and he never tells her to leave, he just tries to protect her the way he protects everyone else. She bakes him cookies a lot, even though she knows he just gives them to Virgil. |
Cesia
Amber thinks Cesia is beautiful and privately worships her -- how lucky is she to actually be related to Erzulie? She doesn't take her snide remarks personally, but often prays for Cesia to find peace and happiness. Erzulie Amber isn't entirely sure she understands why the goddess has taken an interest in her, but she's not about to try and tell her she's wrong. Erzulie represents love, and kindness, and everything that Amber desperately wishes to live her life by -- and she's yet to notice that Erzulie's interest in her might not be entirely selfless. |

- Her voice is soft, and she often tries to hide her southern drawl (without much success)
- Plays with her cuffs when she's unsettled, even if she's maintaining eye contact
- Tilts her head and smiles up at people a lot
- Chews the inside of her lip when she's thinking
- Resting face is a faint smile
- Gives a lot of small gifts without thinking about it
- Bakes at least once a week; she claims it's good for the soul to share a meal with those you love
- Studying to be a kindergarten teacher, and gets along great with all kids
