“Magic is all around us! It lives in nature, in the skies, under the earth, and in the people we cherish. That energy, that love, is what gives me the strength to live and grow!”
Biography
Kaepha was a student at the Grand University of Prestidigitation, a higher level school for studying the finer arts of magic, its applications, and its consequences. She had been at the school for 5 years, and was heading into her 6th year of study, when she fell into a portal to Osterra.
Ceyfuh was a brilliant student. She was able to pick up on the finer nuances of theory naturally, and often spent her time studying and researching to further bolster her repository of knowledge. In spite of her academic gifts, however, she was unable to manifest any trace of magic. This was especially disheartening because of how her world worked.
Age: 20’s
Race: Human (?)
Faction: The Irregulars
Path: Witch
Affiliations: The Irregulars, Sanguine Order
Almost anyone in the land could harness the power of magic. Even young children could create simple light tricks and other shows of arcane talent. Poor Kaef@ was never able to do this, even though she wanted nothing more than to become an incredible and beloved witch. She wanted to be the best at using magic, to be a top-tier witch with access to spells and abilities from across the spectrum. However, she was never able to tap into the energy of the universe around her. She was disconnected, physically, spiritually, and socially, from the world. It seemed her curse: to never belong.
Everything changed when she arrived in Osterra. Though she began her journey just as powerless as she was in her old world, |</\|=/\ quickly began to pick up on the basics of harnessing magic. Through her own voracious research, her prior knowledge of the fundamentals, and the assistance of great magical teachers, she slowly began to find herself worthy of the title of witch. The final gift which hardened her resolve was a blessing of a deity: The Green Goddess. QayF⊗ was gifted a powerful spell, one that could warp nature to protect and aid her allies, known as Warp Wood and Decay. Since then, the whimsical witch has set about being the best support to her friends she could ever be!
Currently, Ckæphuh is a member of The Irregulars, where she holds the position of Logistics Witch. She oversees the lands The Irregulars protect, and makes sure that resources are where they need to be and harvested responsibly. Beyond her faction, K∑ph∀ apprentices under Sir Artorias as a monster hunter in the Sanguine Order. She also works on a plethora of her own research, and is constantly looking for new apprentices and new volunteers to help her with her inquiries!
Personality
Qayθha’s cheery demeanor reflects her source of power; she derives magic from the love of her companions, and the glimmering stars above! She always cherishes the opportunity to make a new friend, especially when that friend shares her common interest in the arcane. Though she is full of love and adoration for her precious pals, she often pursues her eclectic interests with…a bit too much enthusiasm. She has been known to bend the rules a little a lot to push forward magic into new realms, new heights. Ceπha takes her self-proclaimed title of “The Strongest Witch in Osterra” deathly seriously, and works to live up to it more every day.
K@ephλ is not much of a front-liner! She prefers to support her allies with spells of protection, ranging from physical shielding, magic shielding, wards, and mind shielding, as well as augmenting their damage potential through weaving starlight into their blades. When pushed to it, or when feeling frustrated, she will pummel her attackers with her staff, often using flanking and stabbing to pick off distracted threats.
Appearance
K∞ifa has an assortment of favorite adventuring outfits, ranging from the brightest whites to the deepest darks. However, there are three important details to most of her outfits that create the Kaoife Hemlock Experience™:
Striped tights
Lots of purple
A big, pointy hat
Putting it all together gives you nearly anything you will find the eccentric witch garbed in, save for special occasions like Winter Council or the hunt.
©⇔fª's long, curly hair is often put into braided twintails to prevent the wind from ruining her day. She likes to keep some of her most important accessories on her person at all time, including a leaf amulet, which represents the Green Goddess, and a ring, which she totally did not take from cursed pirate treasure!
