 Name: Vanya (Vahn-yah)
Meaning: Beautiful.
Breed: Harpy (mutant hippogryph)
Quote: "You have beauty and grace. Flaws and strengths like everyone else."
Currently: Collecting beautiful males and other objects for her collection.
Herd: Vanya is a member of The Flock. She holds the rank of musician/dancer.
Familiar: Pavone is more of an addition to Vanya's collection of beautiful
objects than he is her familiar. He still assists her when she's out scouting
for males, but mostly he's put on parade. He loves the attention he gets,
though and Vanya treats him extremely well; he's always fed, cleaned and
taken care of.
Personality: Vanya is narcissistic to a tee. She takes pride in all
things she does and every feature she has. She is obsessed with owning
beauty and often collects things she finds beautiful - trinkets, jewllery, men..
She's very over the top with her actions - the way she speaks, the way she
moves and especially the way she dances.
She considers herself above her sisters when it comes to beauty, though
she is aware that she is not the strongest, fastest or the wisest - she finds
those traits boring and trivial.
Vanya is a dancer. Besides protecting and continuing the flock it is all she
lives for. She believes she is the most skilled, most graceful and most
beautiful dancer in the flock and while no one confirms it, they cannot deny
her skill. When she dances, men fall to their knees begging for time with her
(or so she says..).
While she is gifted in the act of dance, she is tone deaf when it comes to
singing and sometimes envies those of her sisters who are able to sing -
especially those who can sing and dance. Vanya plays music with bells -
that's about as close as she gets to musical talent and that relies on her
dancing.
Vanya enjoys crafting jewellery - either for herself or for her sisters on
special occasions. It is simply a hobby of hers and so she doesn't do it
often. She uses her harem to collect gems and other various materials.
While Vanya understands the need to mate to strengthen the flock, she is
very selective with who she breeds with. She looks for beauty, good
genetics, rather than a strength and what have you. She never stays with the
same stallion and while she may have a favourite, she will not selectively
breed with him believing it is a waste of her god given beauty. Vanya collects
men like she collects trinkets and jewellery.
However, due to her size and lack of strength, Vanya has to rely solely on
her beauty and skill in dancing to capture her males. Sometimes she may
set traps or seek help from another sister in bringing down a male if she
wants him more than any other treasure.
The easiest way to win Vanya over is to compliment her and give her things
that are beautiful. Insulting her, in anyway, even if it is something that is
meant to be constructive criticism, will result in a very angry, very mean
harpy with very sharp claws wanting to tear your head off. She is very
possessive of the beautiful things she's claimed and would only be willing to
share if she deemed the sister wanting them worthy.  |

 Vanya is the eldest child of Eleniel and Lerato. Born into the flock,
she was raised by nannies. She listened to all the lessons taught, though
she didn't take a lot of it to memory. She watched in awe at the dancers
during festivals and knew in her heart it was what she would do for the flock.
Vanya took her dancing lessons seriously - chastising her sisters when they
did something wrong or weren't paying attention. During whatever spare time
she had, she practiced and practiced, making up dances of her own.
As a foal, Vanya wasn't as beautiful as she is now. It was until she reached
her teens that she gained her beauty. She was often teased by her sisters;
called an ugly duckling. This is the reason she collects beauty; she believes
it is something precious; something that should be worshiped.
During her teenage years Vanya's appearance changed and she became
beautiful, while her sisters she grew up with stayed the same. She loathed
her sisters for teasing her for so long that she began to flaunt her beauty,
making sure she always looked her best.
It was in her teenage years that she began collecting beautiful things;
especially beautiful men. She constantly showed off her collection, showing
her sisters the beauty they said she would never have; the men they said
she'd never claim.
Vanya was on the cusp of adulthood when the Earthquakes struck and
destroyed their home. Like her parents, she mourned for her brother and
spent weeks broken. But, like her father, she realised her mother needed her
and was strong for her. Her brother is never forgotten; Vanya sometimes
waits in the forests for him to return; even though a part of her believes he
never will.
Now a woman, Vanya has made a friend in the Oracle's protected pet,
Taarab. What started off as a friendship built on respect and a love of crafts
eventually blossomed into a love for one another that lead to the birth of
three healthy and beautiful girls; Vanmoriel, Vaniania and Vanwyn.
Taarab was granted permission to stay with Vanya when the Oracle did not
need him, much to Vanya's happiness. Taarab has helped raised their
children and plays an important role in their lives.
