About
Full Name: Katherine (Keeley) DavisGender: Female
Age: 21
Origin: From the great city of London, well until she was shipped off to an all girls boarding school for long girls of high class. There, she was brainwashed off all rebellious thought, leaving only a prim and proper lady in the wild child's place. She's the daughter of a wealthy merchant class family, that dealt mostly in the satin trade, her father is a exceedingly wealthy man. Katherine, or Keeley as she's called by few others, grew up with a want for nothing, although she's always had a voracious love of books, to the point of obsession. After her school days, that was all that was left of the girl who used to dream of flying the sky.
Now she is, for her father's ship that was supposed to fly her directly to her aunt in Edinburgh, was lost on the winds, leaving her abandoned in a life boat with a bag full of books, and her best dress. She eventually made her way to the next major port, Cardiff, where she booked the rest of the journey herself with the money he'd sent with her to spend on the latest in Scottish fashion. Now she's on the Brass Barge, not quite sure when she'll ever make it to Edinburgh. Along the way she started sowing patches on to the crews clothes, then designing new ones out of what ever scraps she had, to keep her fine dress from being destroyed. She now does the sowing for the crew, making repairs to them or making entirely new ones if the old ones are too damaged.
Personality: Keeley is a prim and proper woman most of the time, often a tad stuffy, since she was trained to be a perfect upper class merchant's wife. Underneath the posh exterior, hidden deep with in, is a fire of curiosity that has never been extinguished.
Skills: Keeley is well known for her skills in sowing, part of her being a cloth merchants daughter, and learning from a young age to embroider and do general sowing. But besides that; She can spot a good quality Satin from a mile away, and has good knowledge of most other fabrics. She also can read instructions and follow them, an actual rare skill. She also knows how to bargain with even the most stubborn of traders.
Job: Seamstress for the crew.
Fighting Style/Weapons used: Fighting? Lady's don't fight.
Why you like being on an airship: Well since She has no other choice if she ever wishes to see either her aunt or her home city again. but deep down she likes the feel of the sky on her face, the new people, the new life.

Of course we'll be glad to come. Thanks ever so for the invite and the lovely example for me. What ever would I do without such things? I feel sure it'll be a lovely evening. Had to poke at Daniel a bit, but that's life. Looking forward to seeing you.
Forever,
Tal
Thanks, though. ninja
Sorry my reply is getting to you so late and that it is so short and sloppy. Could we possibly meet somewhere other than the house, or wait a bit? Things have been... Well, not very good recently. Oh, not with Daniel and me, before you worry. That's going fine. Just other things, and I'm not quite able to have visitors at the moment. I do apologize, Keels. Life has been a bit of a madhouse recently. Perhaps we could plan an alternative?
Your friend always,
Tal
Keeley,
So sorry I didn't write back last time. It's been odd, as always. Daniel has yet to move to our home reality, though he does have more than good reasons. We've lso yet to deal with other things. I'm glad that you're happy. More glad than you can know... See, I can have good ideas once in a rare while. I never know what's gong to happen next, as you well know.
I'll have to come visit some time I do know the way there, it's just a matter of time these days. I'd like to talk to you all, including Stacy. The two of us need to talk. Of course I have no gossip about home. I don't run in those circles, though there is some news of tension on Niren. I'm not sure of the details, though here's hoping nothing escalates.
I miss you so much, and not only because any new clothes that I buy that aren't custom-made bag like anything. And I'm glad that you've adapted well... I knew you could, of course. Always. As to good health, when am I ever? I will at least say this, at the moment, I am mostly unhurt, and have been remembering to eat more often that I used to and trying to get regular sleep. If that's not somewhat better, then I don't know what is.
Take care always, Keels, and give everyone a hug from me.
Beyond being your friend,
Tal
