Mother: Sylva Aertas

Quote:Magical Affinities: Poison/Illusion/Time/Wayfinding
Master Alchemist, Doctor, Wayfinding Practitioner, And Artificer. Born from a union of traitors, Sylva is a child that bears the mistakes and choices of those before her. Having ran away from the city that marked her as a traitor, she lives her life free as a bird. Exempt from the choices that had once been held above her. As her children, you'd be taught and expected to follow a similar path before you. Free to decide and learn from your own choices, she and your father will be there to guide you on the right path as best they can..

Your mother is a very dedicated and astute woman. Some might call her a bit crazy and reckless even. Or...a bit of a mad scientist. With a sort of selfish streak to boot. While a bit prickly at times and strict toward you, she'd no doubt be a kind and loving mother behind the scenes. Decades worth of experiences would add to any advice that she might give you on a variety of subjects you might want to ask. From alchemy, artificery, medic work, or even the complex art of Wayfinding, she has alot of accomplishments and achievements under her belt that she'd fully expect you to match or surpass. A master Alchemist at heart, she tends to spend most of her time on her research. But for her children? She'd always be there to lend a helping hand to whatever they might need. Even if...it might take a bit of convincing to get her there..

Your mother fully expects you to forge your own path amongst the choices that come before you. Being a child of a different branch of the Aertas family no doubt will allow you to run in some conflict with the other branch. But alas, you'll be seen as a new beginning of sorts of the Aertas family. With how you lead it going forward? Being up to you and you alone..

Father: Haarper Aertas

Quote:Magical Affinities: Armed. Just....just armed.
Master swordsman and adventurer, your father would have been the beacon of nobility and bravery that was around during your childhood. As well as your most likely source of reasonableness and sanity given your mother's tendencies and attitude at times. Nevertheless, your father would be there to help and guide you throughout your childhood just as much as your mother would have been. With skills as a medic and master swordsman to boot, your father's connections to the nobility of Osrona and wisdom with the blade will no doubt be a boon to aid you on your journey. Being quite the swordsman, he knows a variety of techniques that he can pass on if you decide to take up his knowledge. Known as a hero to most of Osrona, you'll probably look up to him quite alot, depending on your views. And given his heroic nature? Picking up some of that bravado wouldnt be much of a surprise for any of his children.

-As an Aertas, a great deal of expectation will be placed upon you. While you are free to pursue whatever you desire, Sylva would be strict and make sure to ram into your mind the idea that you are better than the other children. You are free to take that however you would like. A bratty Aertas is certainly a possibility given your mother's demeanor.
-You will be apart of the second 'exiled' branch of the family. So you might not have access to things those dumb rich kids in Achyon might have. You WILL have access to two very knowledgeable parents and an excess supply of materials to help improve your alchemy and artificing craft though!
-The oldest child will be the boy while the youngest will be the girl. You are both named Dionte and Sophia respectively. Dionte will be playable in 1843 while Sophia will be playable in 1845 at thirteen years old. (Could potentially spawn in younger at ten if the admins allow it. In 1840 and 1842 respectively)
-Hair color and eye color are of your choosing. Given your mother had hazel eyes and brown hair and your father had silver eyes and hair. You can choose whatever combination you see fit or whatever matches any play by you like. You can even mix and match or have a different mix of colors. Aertas's are known to have white, black, silver, and brown hair. So it's up to you! Given that your mother has glasses and really bad eye-sight. You also might have inherited that too. Up to you though!
-You have an Uncle Ilias who would no doubt want to provide any guidance and wisdom you might desire. He's better at artificing than your mother, so...
-We will not accept alts. And prefer that you be active throughout your time playing. You don't have to get on every single day, mind you. But just be active!

-It's up to you what magic you can inherit and/or use. You might have a certain affinity for Poison or Illusion magic. As well as maybe Crystal. Energy or Sound. And of course, with your father as a master Swordsman, you'll also someone to teach you swordsmanship. When it comes to magic, the choice is ultimately up to you!
-You might be able to inherit the Aertas relic Asclepius and Haarper's sword Chameleos later down the line.

(Might do a third child if there is considerable interest. If there are any questions, please dm Ramen#4577 on discord!)
