Name: Kukiko Stage: Prentice - [Going Scholar with a tome] Race: Ice Gender: Lady 3 Base Traits: Benevolent, Sarcastic / Ironic, Blunt ["You're definitely dying, but I'll do everything I can to help you. Seriously though I don't know how much I can do here..." ] Personality: Kukiko has a golden heart and will do her best for anyone. She is soft-spoken and often will place others before her own well being, hence why she wishes to pick up the healing path. For those who know her well they know that she would wear herself out often for the benefit of others by working late into the night or pushing herself to walk the extra mile to help bring an important item to a neighbor [as a healer she will be the one to stay next to a patient's side way into the early hours of the morning to simply hold their hand and comfort them / keep an eye on their recovery]. However, for those who don't know her well Kukiko is often misunderstood because when her face is at rest her expression is often is mistaken for anger or irritability. This irony often gives others the wrong first impression of her and she constantly is taking others by surprise when they do interact with her because she truly is such a sweet girl. Though she is quite witty and will at times offer sarcastic replies to those she feels close enough with.
Honesty is her best and / or worst quality because she knows no limits to truth. Anything and everything that crosses her mind will leave her mouth and for patients that may not be the most appreciated thing. If you're sick, you're sick and if you're in the way then you are in the way. She may say it kindly, but there will be no filter with Kukiko. For friends she is the best to give advice as she will tell you how she sees it, but sometimes friends would hope not to hear exactly everything that she is thinking - especially if they are at fault or if the topic at hand is a sensitive matter. Description: Just like in the apprentice image she is a petite iceling with finer clothing and elegant, voluptuous hair. The one thing to note is that she does have sharp eyes and a slight downwards curve to her mouth - the true culprits behind the misconception of her being a rather irritable and intense girl. Clothing: Silk and layered outfits with a fur cloak that she wears when going out. Accessories: A beaded necklace with a jade pendant. This belonged to her Great-Grandmother and ever since Kukiko found those old journals and learned about her magical heritage the piece has become priceless to her. History: Kukiko was born into a wealthy Zenan family. Her mother belonged to wealthy merchants while her father had inherited his fortune through generations of elites. While their marriage had been arranged by the family to tie connections and to promote prosperity for both future generations of the families the two icelings did love each other. Zia was the ideal wife who practiced art and often would create things for the market, rare sculptures and unique pieces of hand etched jewelry were her trademarks, while her husband, Akyen, was an excellent tradesman who helped to manage lesser merchants and took his pay from organizing their affairs.
While the two lived in comfort for several years before having children the arrival of twins was surprising for Zia and Akyen. They quickly expanded from their apartment in the capital to an actual home of their own, an impressive two story stone manor on the outskirts of the city. Thankfully both twins, Aniya and Rin, were perfectly healthy and would offer no concern for the parents. It was only seven years later when Kukiko was born that there was slight worry as their baby girl was born a moon earlier than expected. A healer was called right away and for the first few moons of her life Kukiko was observed carefully for any sign of weakness.
As she grew her parents relaxed more as they realized she was growing into a typical youngling with plenty of energy. Kukiko would often tag along behind her older siblings and try to participate in their activities before their studies separated her from them. While she was still too young to really practice anything both her older sister and brother were off learning about different things. Her brother learned how to craft items like their mother while her sister picked up her sharp tongue from their father. Meanwhile Kukiko found herself feeling lackluster in comparison to her family. Her siblings had adapted to learning skills from their parents while she couldn't seem to pick up on any of it. She had a naturally sharp expression that made it hard for others to find her charismatic while her blunt personality could often ruin a trade. [no lying for her no matter how big or small and by god that one piece was just atrocious anyways so why would we want it?].
As she got older Kukiko wanted to try her best to find her niche and to feel helpful. She would help out with chores inside the house and try to keep everything looking grande and elegant for when foreign merchants came to discuss business with her father. It was right before such an occasion that she began to trim the flowers lining the main hallway of their home. As she focused intently on the delicate flowers in the glass vase Kukiko found herself wishing that the petals could be a bit more vibrant so that they could truly make the hallway beautiful and it was in that moment that something startling occurred - her hands were glowing! As the flowers brightened before her eyes the iceling was only for a second transfixed before sudden noise made her spazz and toss the vase away. As the pieces shattered on the ground the form of a perzi darted through the hallway and up towards the stairs, "JiJi." The perzi's name escaped her lips and she later would blame her mother's familiar [which she despises by the way the foreign merchant should have kept that little devil far from Zena] for the accident, something which technically was not completely a lie since the perzi had startled her out of her trance.
From that day on Kukiko has been trying to keep her magic hidden. No one else in her family seems to have magic and she fears that revealing it will definitely make her the oddball of the family. For now she just focuses on being the baby of the family and doing her best to continue trying to find her niche that allows her to fit in with them. It's just rather hard recently when she has sparks of magic flying here and there which she has to try and hide, something nearly impossible for the girl who struggles with any lie. To avoid dishonesty she simply keeps quiet and hopes that no one will catch her because when that day comes she knows she will have to confess and then will have to accept that she is not meant to be a merchant or artisan like the rest of her family.
Familiar: Duram - A beige colored roati with brown horns and warm amber eyes. While she loves him to death the little trickster also enjoys taking a bite out of her books. His favorite spot to sleep is at the foot of her bed or on her face depending on his mood.
Plot Points:
- Kukiko will continue to try and fit in with her family by helping her brother and sister out with their projects in hopes that one day something will click that makes her feel more like them.
- She will, however, discover some family secrets as her Great- Grandmother's belongings will make it to the home which allows her to read an old journal and keep her Great-Grandmother's necklace. In the journal she will find out that her Great-Grandmother actually was a Soul Linker who had rescued her Great-Grandfather in the mountains. While recovering he fell in love with the beautiful maiden and took her for his wife. He was a noble and had wealth so she didn't have to practice as much anymore and then they had twin boys - one with magic and one without. Both boys had been close, but as they grew they found their differences too much to handle. The one with magic was too playful, too eccentric while the non-magical boy was too stern. His brother, a young mystic, would also woo the girl of his dreams - the final straw to their relationship. Heartbroken and angry at his brother he would go on to start his own merchant business and become Kukiko's father's father. Since her grandfather never talked about having a brother no one knew that there was a second half of the family, one more open to the magical arts. [The more she reads the more will get revealed in segments throughout her apprentice solos]
- Finding out that there's a second half of her family will make her curious and she will eventually find out that she does have an older cousin out there by the name of Eresin. He is the grandson of the magical brother who gave birth to two children, Nerio and his Sister (Eresin's mother). When she finally reveals all this to her family they assist her in reuniting with this cousin who will take her in and help her to better understand her own growing powers.
- At one point she may travel to find out about other healing methods from around the world, but would return to Zena to open up her own clinic in the end.
-She also dreams of having a giant library full of medical knowledge, ranging from herb lore to folk tales to other various healing methods. [her only prayer is that Duram won't eat all the books before then.]
