tab ■ Genevieve Roche [mother / human]
- ┏
- Born Magdalena Roche, Shame was conceived when her prostitute mother, Genevieve Roche, took a half-fiend client. In itself, a human and half-fiend were already doomed to produce a Tiefling child, but Genevieve herself had damned her own blood years before. In a Faustian pact to retain her beauty and youthful appearance for the rest of her days, Genevieve, should she ever have children, would be cursed to birth hideous tiefling offspring. This coupled with a more direct demonic lineage from her half-fiend father, lead to heavy demonic features in Shame, even from birth. With cloven hooves, horns, yellow eyes, sharp teeth, and goatish features, it was evident that Shame came from something unholy. Uncertain of who the father was but knowing that this was a part of the deal long ago, Genevieve took it upon herself to love and care for Shame regardless of her appearance. However, during her earlier years, Genevieve often kept Shame hidden or told her to keep her Tiefling features concealed. Looking back on it, Shame wasn’t certain if this was out of protection or shame.
When Shame was still a young child, Genevieve moved them from Port of the Red Gypsy to Hammerley, where she gave up prostitution and began work as a barmaid. With some money saved up, Genevieve purchased a small space above the tavern she worked at. From a young age, Shame started to help out, mostly in the form of musical entertainment. Seeing her interest in music, Genevieve purchased an old, cheap lyre for Shame to practice with and it soon became her most proficient skill. While performing or dealing with patrons, Genevieve always insisted that Shame keep her features concealed “so she wouldn’t get hurt.” This became something Shame grew accustomed to and didn’t really question. She kept her horns filed down, along with her baby teeth when she was younger. She almost exclusively wore long, heavy dressed to hide her tail, legs, and hooves, and made little eye contact with those she spoke to.
As Shame grew older, she began to realize that hiding herself the way she had wasn’t normal. She found it insulting that her mother was apparently so ashamed of her appearance that she groomed her to live this way. Though, Shame gave Genevieve the benefit of the doubt, since their relationship was never bad, but it did spark the idea that her mother was embarrassed of her. Around her late teens, Shame began to convince herself that she was holding her mother back and dampening her reputation somehow. At 17, Shame left home, leaving only a note behind wishing her mother a good rest of her life.
The first few years on her own were rough. Shame gradually began to conceal less of her features and was met with mixed reactions. One day, after reflecting back on her life and experiences in the past years, Shame would take on a new name. She had learned that some Tieflings took on “virtue names,” and began to wonder what hers would be—what was something that played a role in her life and made her what she was today?
Shame.
Though the name may have fit at first, Shame began to deal with life’s hardships by becoming brazen and shameless. She took any hate or shortcomings in stride, mocking those who looked down on her. Though despite her confidence, it started as more of an act than genuine self-love or realization. Shame would go onto use this newfound charm and confidence to play into her use of deception, but the biggest facet of it went into her own self-image. If she could fake it and convince others she was something else, then what stopped her from doing it to herself?
Currently, the old lyre given to her by her mother had been stolen. Despite the rift she put between them and the years of no contact, Shame treasured the instrument and what it meant to her. Since then, she had purchased a newer, more well-made lyre, but she longed to find her old one.
