Verity

Verity Iolanda Winters Grrl Genius 125px Quote If we wish to make a new world we have the the material ready. The first one, too, was made of chaos. -Robert Quillen Basic Information Born into the Winters family, one of the wealthier guild dynasties in the Known Worlds, Verity has known little else but wealth, connections, and privlege, and it probably shows in her naivete and assumptions. Her father Alexander is a high ranking Reeve, her older brother rising in that guild. Her mother Yulia is a Master in the Supreme Order of Engineers. If there is such a thing as guild nobility, she would be part of it. Perhaps unsurprisingly, given those genetics at play, Verity was proven to be profoundly gifted at a very young age, a child prodigy even by Leagueheim/Engineer standards. She entered the Academy extremely early, was granted her first guild patent (still in use) by the time she was twelve, and never quite learned how to behave according to social niceties. She is inquisitive, friendly, and doesn't have much of a filter between what pops into her head and what comes out of her mouth; that is to say, she's nosy, can beat even a stoic Li Halan into suicidal submission with her nonstop chatter, and is quite often unintentionally impertinent. Her speciality is the reverse engineering of alien artifacts for human adaptation and use, but she's hot for Second Republic tech and think machines as well. People fascinate her too, and it's rumored that she caused a never-ending headache for the authorities on Leagueheim by getting involved in investigations of cold cases on her own--and actually being right most of the time. Description A young woman surely still in her teens by her youthful look, Verity is adorable rather than pretty, in a pixie-ish way, probably not helped by the fact that she doesn’t even clear five feet tall. Straight dark brown hair is sensibly trimmed to chin length to frame her heart shaped face. Light arched eyebrows give her an inquisitive air and frame large dark hazel eyes. A thin but well shaped nose is accentuated by a half-moon piercing which is matched by another piercing in her lower lip. Her stature may be as short as a child’s, but she’s got a woman’s curves in all the right places and her clothing is cut to mildly accentuate this. She wears a high collared long sleeved lightweight linen shirt, a shield jewel twinkling just below the collar proper. A tan laced vest that cinches tightly around her small waist, with various pockets and buckles and markings which might set her apart as a member of the Supreme Order of Engineers. Perhaps surprisingly she has no visible cyberware. A newsboy cap is plopped rakishly on her head. At her waist are a collection of tools and calibration devices, complete with a blaster pistol at her hip. A pair of dark leather breeches is tucked into sturdy leather boots that are buckled nearly to her knees. Contacts Sir Pushalot (Vasiliy) - Not as mean as first impression. After autograph, all is forgiven! Miles - Partner in crimesolving, protector, would even trust him with OTIS! Lord-General Calvin (Caelwyn) - Probably irons and starches his underwear. If only that Death Stare could be reverse engineered... Captain Simone - Fast times are fun times! Lady Sassy (Lysandra) - Gotta respect a Lady who can kick a demon's butt. Or pistol whip it or...whatever. Dame Trisje - Climbing stairs isn't as fun as you'd think. Also, #1 autograph! Sir Jerusalem - Looks just like his card! Which should be impossible. Ship is hot. Lord Jason (Julien) - He might know his binary from his hexidecimal! And it's not like anyone was really in danger, there! Captain Sadie (Sofia) - She's nice, and she has rope. Everyone seems to like her jacket, since most of them look there first instead of her face? Maybe could use a cool hat. Lord Archie (Arkady) - You totally deserved that. Lord Ernie (Yuri) - See? He totally deserved that! Logs Meddling Kid Entered of the Supreme Order of Engineers Date of Birth: July 1, 4983 Homeworld: Leagueheim Home County: Akko (for now!) Height: 4'9" Weight: 90ish?
