Background: Rose never knew her parents. She was raised in an orphanage along the frigid northern coast, along with a gaggle of other snow elves and nordic kids. Although, she found it a bit harder to keep up with the excitement the others had. Where the rest of the kids talked about becoming adventurers, bards, or mages when they grew up, Rose often found herself at a loss of what she really wanted. She was far more content letting her imagination run wild in the worlds detailed in the books she read rather than Lucideia itself. Nothing was cozier and more comforting than being bundled up by the fire, reading the thoughts and actions of fictitious characters whom she grew to understand far deeper than real people.

Able to understand her voracious love of books and slight fear of people, she sought a way to indulge her habits further. Luckily, with the nothern mage college of Gottrahmen not too far away, she was able to accomplish that goal rather quickly. While there, she even learned a way to tap into the magic capabilities within her, although she wasn't too concerned with that side of herself. She took to learning the library well, operating it like a well-oiled machine. Every corner, every shelf, dutifully organized and catalogued in her head. Aside from the frequent interruptions of the students and staff looking for things within the library, she was relatively content. As content as a woman as lonely as her could be, anyway.

The issues regarding her fear of socialization conflicted heavily with her deep desire to have someone understand her and be her friend. It was simply just too difficult for her to manage, often falling back on nonsensical excuses of people disliking her or not caring for her. It made her feel rather alien to others, and only aided her retreat into her books further. She felt as if her only true friends were Okoro and Fletcher, the main protagonist and antagonist respectively of her favorite book series. But, Gottrahmen was a mage college, and a far north one as well. Their collection of books was somewhat lacking, especially in the department of entertaining fiction.

When the Mage's College in Aerel opened, word spread fast, even to Rose. Although she regrets waiving her support for the college of her homeland, the want to further bury herself in works of fiction proved too great to resist. She bid Gottrahmen adieu and made her way to Aerel, where she became the assistant librarian to Lupin Arche, the old man who quickly became possibly her only friend. Now, ten years on, she goes about her work much like she did in her previous library, losing herself in fantastic stories yet longing tirelessly for a connection somewhere in the real world.

Personality: Shy, introverted, bashful, very socially awkward. Nerdy, obsessive, responsible, quiet. Although she isn’t particularly well-versed in magic, she knows the library like the back of her hand and loves books. Her favorite activity is reading, and will often hide away from people when she wants time to read privately. Enjoys being alone, but is very wistful about not having a romantic partner. Constantly doubts herself, low self-esteem, will often try to debate any compliments thrown her way. Lonely, finds herself wanting company but is too shy to actively pursue it. Often absent-minded, lost in her own little world of fantasies and stories. Analytical, loves poetry and writing.

Quirks: Despite her quiet and reserved nature, she can get rather emphatic and talkative about her favorite books, especially the ‘Okoro’ series. Has a hobby of writing her own fan fiction of Okoro and Fletcher from said books. Often tries to make excuses why she should be alone after helping students and visitors. Speaks quietly. Agoraphobic, social anxiety, has a fear of crowds of people. Frequently finds herself fantasizing about romantic scenarios with the characters in her favorite books as she is too afraid to pursue a real romantic relationship. Justifies her fantasies involving 'Okoro' by arguing that the samurai is bisexual, based on the events of the book 'Okoro and the Undersea Castle,' in which he has close relations with a female ghost.

Goal: To aide the readers in the Mage's College library to the best of her ability.

Relationships -

Lupin Arche - A blind, older man who also works the Mage's College library. Extremely patient, caring, quiet, and wise. Rose views him as something of a father figure and often aides him in translating the library's books into braille.
