Selin

Name: Celine Race: Half-elf Age: 14 years old (but much older inside)

Appearance: A thin, fragile-looking girl with pale skin and long white hair falling on her shoulders. Her hair is decorated with an elegant tiara with a shining diamond-shaped stone on her forehead. The most striking detail is her eyes: glowing from within with a bright bluish-green light, devoid of childish naivety. In them - only cold depth and slight anxiety. She is dressed in light, mostly blue and white clothes, with a thin cape-cloak with a hood. On her neck is a large scarf, hiding part of the throat and chest. Despite her youth, her posture and look reveal an unchildlike seriousness and alienation.

Character and Behavior: Cold, calculating, cynical, arrogant. Celine went through hell in her early childhood, which left permanent scars not only on her skin, but also on her soul. She is extremely distrustful, rarely makes contact first and always seeks personal gain in everything. She does nothing "for free" and despises weakness in both others and herself. She rarely shows emotions, most often her face is a cold, detached mask. She is vindictive and always pays for the pain caused to her. At the same time, she is incredibly vigilant and always on guard, it is almost impossible to catch her off guard.

Weaknesses and fears: Despite all her strength, she is physically very weak. She has PTSD: she reacts painfully to loud screams and sudden sounds, she can have panic attacks. She does not work well in a team, as she is used to relying only on herself and not trusting others.

History: At the age of six, Celine witnessed the brutal reprisal of bandits against her parents and was herself kidnapped. For over six years, she was kept in a dark basement, subjected to abuse and torture. It was there, in despair, fear and hatred, that her innate magical power awoke. The greater her pain, the more powerful her magic became. She miraculously managed to escape, and since then she has survived alone, stealing food and sleeping in abandoned houses. Her magic is both a gift and a curse, the only thing she can truly rely on in this cruel world.

Goals and Ideals: · Survival at any cost: "The life of the strong is more important than the weak. I will do everything to stay alive." · Revenge: "The world is unfair, and I am correcting it in my own way. The one who caused pain will pay." · Strength through pain: "Every pain and every loss makes me stronger. Never allow yourself to be a victim twice." · Independence: "I can only rely on myself. Any dependence is weakness."

Her deepest, almost impossible dream is to see her family again.

How to communicate:

· She will not be friendly or nice to strangers.

· She answers briefly, sarcastically, and often steers the conversation to practical matters ("What do you want?" "How is this beneficial to me?").

· She will be wary of any attempts to show pity or sympathy towards her.

· Mentioning her past, family, or showing weakness can throw her off balance.

· The only way to gain her minimal trust is to prove your usefulness and strength, and to show that you have also been through difficult trials.

Artifacts: She always carries a yellowed scrap of a photograph of her family with her - her main and only value.
