NORAH EMORY PROWZE
GENERAL
Name: Norah Emory Prowze
Age: Twenty two
Birth Season: Spring
Occupation: Scribe/Calligrapher
Citizen Status: Noble
PHYSICAL
Height: five’four’’
Weight: 135lbs
Body Description: Norah stands at average height, with long dark hair that reached the small of her back. She wears it in different fashions depending on the season and what dress she wears. She has warm, chocolate brown eyes, with pale skin and full lips. She is not a summoner, so she has very few scars along her body. Mainly from the little mischief that she had gotten into as most children did.
PERSONAL
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Reputation: Norah is clever. She learns fast and doesn’t take no for an answer when she sets her mind to something. She will have it, even if it means that she had to do it herself and get dirty. Figuratively. Some would say she’s lucky, but really its that she knows how to play the cards in her favor, or at least twist them to work in her favor. She has good manners, knowing her way around the court and how to talk to different people there. A small banter here or there. Though with politeness, she also has a fine line on when something is crossed. And will have no problem snipping someone back onto their side of the ‘polite’ line if needed.
She is smart in more than one way, her dress and care for herself shows it as well. Smartly dressed for the occasions or for who she is meeting with. Sometimes it’s mistaken as her being vain, but once they meet her on a training field, they would see that she is down to ruin things if needed to win. She is confident in herself, and depending on the person it can be taken one of two ways; confidence, or arrogance.
On the rare occasions she is in favorable company, she smiles often and has a tendency to remove her shoes, adjusting herself to be more comfortable in her seat. She enjoys art in many forms, though she is quite skilled in singing and drawing. Though not many know of these things.
Combat Experience:
Her father, Borin Prowze, was quite the swordsman during his military service. He served almost all of his life until he retired to manage the estate and due to bad knees. As a daughter, Norah was not expected to focus on weapons but took an interest in the estoc. A long sword that was similar to a rapier with small differences. Around the age of 10, she started practicing more with Borin to ensure that her military training at age 12 would move along well. Which it definitely had ensured it. She was quite the duelist and had found herself liking technique over fighting dirty.
MAGIC
]Curses & Incantations.
Before her required military time, her mother took it upon herself to teach the young witch magic. Her mother was known for her curses, which was heavily thrusted upon her children. Norah just so happened to take in her mother’s footsteps. Finding her calling in curses and incantations. She was long practicing those two before she even saw her mandated military time at the age of twelve. Which only pushed her further into developing her skills. The military seemed more keen on training her incantations, but her home life focused on curses.
LEVEL 10 UPDATE: Norah was deep in the Nevermere woods outside of her estate on a full moon, practicing summonings by herself. Upon the stroke of the witching hour, a dark summoned spirit came forth disguised as a dire wolf, coat black and eyes a bright amber color. Deimos, as he introduced himself, liked Norah instantly and the idea of what she could do and what Terra Nova offered. And so, Norah gained a familiar that night, something that she feeds regularly with her blood to keep it tied to her and their realm. In return, he increases her stamina when it comes to her witchcraft abilities. Cutting time in half for more time consuming tasks or giving her the ability to work alone when it normally takes two witches to perform a spell. Deimos is an intelligent entity of his own; he can speak to other people through their minds, is fiercely loyal to Norah, and would fight to protect her if threatened.
LEVEL 20 UPDATE: After the trial, Deimos realized he needed to be more, so much more than just an enhancer to her magic. He needed to be her magic as well. To protect her better than he could before. There was a shift in him, a dark shift as he commanded her to release him back to his world and summon him again. Using more blood than before, more power from her. She questioned him but he didn't answer her. So on a blood moon, she went deep into a field and did what he asked. She released him, and then summoned him again. Draining way more blood than she ever had for a summoning and when he came back to her, he was bigger (from 3 feet at the top of his shoulders to 4 feet), and not only did he hold the power to amplify her magic, but he had a new trick. With a quick toss of his head, an incantation blasted from his mouth. Deimos can now do one form of witchcraft on his own.
HISTORY
Family: Borin Prowze (Father) | Eirinn Prowze (Mother) | 1 older brother | 2 older sisters | 1 younger brother
Tale:
Norah Emory Prowze was born in the middle of winter. During some of the coldest days, in the dead of night. She was the second to youngest child of her parents. Her mother, a witch known well for her curses, and her father, a proud noble ranking military officer known for his swordsmanship.
Growing up, Norah was pushed hard by her mother. Her father took the back seat and was almost never home. Not surprising considering the military life practically ran his life. Eirinn wanted her daughters to follow in her footsteps, not wanting all her handwork to be put to shame with daughters who were incapable of carrying on the family name. She pushed them from a young age to craft. Norah’s one blessing was that she actually had a knack for curses which deemed her a favorite very quickly. As all nobles, outside of training, she was busy studying. Norah was always hungry for information and things that would expand her knowledge.
She found herself enjoying art in her spare time. Having quite the hand for it and having notebooks filled with her drawings, and her collection only grows larger every year. With her artistic ways, she enjoyed working to help scribe documents and even perfected her calligraphy. A lot of nobles have been known to come to her for official documents to have them down with her beautiful script.
Her time spent during her mandated military time was not wasted. Her father would never allow such a thing. He pushed her hard, as he had all of his children. Though it was known he was harder on the boys than the girls. Since he didn’t want his daughters to be scarred up before they were able to marry into a good noble family.
The past few months, her time was spent buried into a few documents her brother had gained on some expeditions that he had acquired from some strange lands. She all but ignored her mother’s pleas to push her into the light of current events. Though she did allow her to groom her and kept up with her curses and incantations.
But now that her most recent appetite was satisfied, she is ready to sink her teeth into the next adventure. She was ready to grace the court of Nevermere with her families backing.
