Myrrh
Name
Myrrh Holisa A'idemrek
Age
12
Occupation
Actress/Harlequin
Class
Acrobat
Description
Myrrh's appearance is what many people would call horrendous and what few would call appealing. When standing flat, she only reaches up to 4'4'', and only weighs about 70 lbs. She is built for her job, flat chested, though that doesn't say much for her age, and a smooth stomach. Her skin is an odd deep tan, even though she doesn't appear to get that much sun, but bears no blemishes, moles or scars, only tattoos, which she seems to have many of. She has a shock of white hair, cut neatly above her shoulders, except for her bangs which are pulled into two long side-bangs that reach mid-chest, that are ended with a bell each. Her eyes are large, and bright, amber in color, and over her right eye is a tattoo of a red diamond. Other tattoos that mark her body are: a red heart over her heart, multiple coins on both sides of her inner calves, a trio of feather, red, blue, and green, on her left shoulder blade, three golden keys on her right hip, a green frog on the bottom of her foot, and two dice on her shoulder, one with a five, and the other with a two. The clothing she wears is usually gaudy, mismatched, and extremely colourful, making the girl clash even more the she already had.
Background
A harlequin is not a terribly accepted job, and there are numerous insults for young girls who take up the career as their choice. Though, with nothing else then her obsession to go on, Myrrh fell quit easily into the job, taking up as many musical instruments as she could hold on hand, including the Jew's Harp, the tambourine, bells, and some drums. The girl was quite tone deaf, though, so using her voice was quite out the question. She was quite good at the quick steps, dips, and spins necessary for dancing, and her body was fit to keep up with the movements. Myrrh's dancing and musical ability were not very helpful for keeping money in her pocket, on good days she had enough money to buy herself a blanket to replace the old one that had gotten stolen in her sleep in the alleyways.
It was pure luck that one day a man who owned a large auditorium was walking by the colourful girl one day. Even though her appearance was all together to weird for the world today, he thought that she would be a perfect freak for a freak show. He enlisted her in his show, offering her a steady pay, and even a place to sleep, and Myrrh was more then happy to comply with his wishes. Her new job was to put on shows at least eight times a week, though she usually did more, and any odd job that the other actors and actresses could find for her. She was the errand girl of the cast, running off to get stars their favorite type of treats from their favorite store, helping the magicians prepare their tricks, and maybe, if she was good enough, helping the actors learn their lines.
Anything of Myrrh's life before she was found acting on the streets is pretty much a mystery, even if Myrrh doesn't seem to mind telling the world. She doesn't have parents or siblings or caretakers, or if she did, they have long since abandoned her. The girl has admitted to being from the county of Irithey, though whether or not that is that is the truth has yet to be found out. Her odd accent is so heavy it almost makes her seem alien, and who ever did the mass of beautiful tattoos all over her body has yet to show themselves to the world.
Country of Origin
Irithey

Myrrh has an odd accent that doesn't seem to be from any province. She also has a habit of integrating words from the language into her sentences.

Alice

Name
Alice Lichor
Age
18
Occupation
None
Class
Prophet
Description
Alice has long, pale blond hair that cascades down, stopping above her waist. It is finely kept and groomed by maids of the house, her bangs reaching just over her thin eye brows. Her eyes are a frozen ice blue colour. She is around average height, at 5'5'', and only weighs a little over 100 lbs. In her three years with the noble she has been pampered and fixed up to appear as if she never stepped foot in the streets. Her skin is pale from lack of sun the only blemishes are a couple moles scattered around her body and small, fairly unnoticeable scars, most likely caused from scratching. She wears fine dresses, sew only for her use, so they fit her figure comfortably. In her left ear she has one piercing, a golden stud with a milky light blue gem set in it. She is never seen in anything but her dresses and always has the family emblem of the Lichor family she married into somewhere on her being.
History
Alice was the only daughter of an apothecary, with six other brothers. She wasn't very close to the other members of her family, only her mother. The two of them, since she was old enough to hold a cloth, did all the cleaning, gardening, cooking and all that other stuff necessary for happy home. Unfortunately for Alice, she was quite clumsy, often slipping up and breaking things. Such did not bode well with her father, and no matter how much her mother tried to defend her, she always seemed to get at least a couple beatings. Her brothers would help, if not add to her pain even further, which made her mother very afraid. As soon as the chance was given, her mother immediately released her to another's care, for hopes of a better life for her child.
Alice married a twenty middle class man at the age of thirteen. He was a tutor who taught her many different things. Alice was shocked with the reception she received from the man. He was from out of country and explained many different things about the world, the gods, and magic. Though her mother had been a devout follower of religions, Alice never wished to trouble her, but with this man so open to her, she just had to speak her mind, quite literally. As he listened to her as a voice of god he was shocked, though not as shocked as she was was. He was impressed that she had learned so quickly, though Alice felt something more foreboding. That night her husband was killed, as the two were taking a stroll through a park. Her husband was threatened, either his life or her body, and even though he tried to protect her the best he could, the attacker eventually won and took her as his spoils.
Life with the bandit didn't last that long, a couple days, and then he died in the streets trying to steal from another man. Alice broke through the crowd to see her second partner dead. This time she didn't shed tears, but as she turned to walk away, the noble man stopped her. He seemed quite taken with her, enough to ask her to his house for a meal, and propose to her in the same night. Even though she didn't really know how to respond, she knew she would have to. Her life with the noble man has taken three years of her life, since she was fifteen and he, and thirty-three year old heir to a large fortune, met her, six days after her true love was killed. She now spends her days with other wives of noblemen, drinking fine drinks and eating fine foods, pretending she forgot about her past.
Country of Origin
Vaine
Other
Alice does still secretly worships the deities, but does not tell anyone for fear of shaming her newest husband. When nervous, she is known to find some sort of paper and fold it into little shapes and figures.
