Name: Niiemh Kavensei
Race: Pure Leaf
Gender: Female
3 Base Traits: Loyal, Over Protective, Motherly
Personality: Loyalty is something that was ingrained into her ever since she was little. Mostly it was loyalty to the family and her siblings but it has cross over into other aspects as well. Niiemh is the type of person that would be a very loyal friend and/or lover to someone that proved deserving of it.
Her over protectiveness comes about in several ways. Again, mostly because it was preached at her over and over but also because she has a true desire to make sure each of her siblings is taken care of and happy. She will often times hover to make sure nothing is wrong or bothering them. If she feels they are in danger or being bullied she will step in even when not asked to do so. Niiemh will always do this out of love and never malice.
As a by product of life she also developed a rather comforting personality. She can see when one of her siblings is hurting or simply needs a hug and is usually there to provide it. Niiemh also encourages each with gentle words and praise that she feels everyone should hear. Those outside the family may also experience this side of her if she knows them well enough to feel comfortable around them.
Unfortunately, it is hard for Niiemh to make friends outside of her siblings. She quickly distrusts others and makes excuses to either not see them or will simply avoid them.
Quirks Niiemh goes really pale at the sight of blood, human or animal.

History: Niiemh was born into a complicated family. She is the second child of her father and mother but overall she is the fourth child in the family. Her father, Vulir, is a renowned businessman who is in a marriage of convenience with his wife, Merle. The family lives in Yera, a large settlement in Tale, where they have several homes that belong to the family as well as some shops and land on which to farm.
Niiemh's mother was a woman named Jenesa. She was the mistress of Vulir. She has an older brother, Viltre, and a younger sister, Terrwyn, that are full siblings from this union. Vulir, despite being married to Merle, loved Jenesa and had her and their children live with him on the family estate. This made his wife angry.
Merle came to resent Jenesa and her children rather quickly. She quickly made it clear that her son was the heir. As a dutiful wife, and a proud woman, she did her best to live side by side with her husband's mistress and offspring. However, she did not hide her joy when Jenesa passed.
Niiemh was actually born mere minutes after Merle's second son, Noamh. Their father, amazed at the closeness of their births despite them having two different mothers, gave them names fit for twins and had them raised as such. While Noamh is her half brother she is close with him for such reasons.
With the love received from Vulir, none of the children see each other as half or whole siblings, they are all his children and as such are all brother and sister. It is only when Merle mentions it that they are reminded of their status as illegitimate.
Growing up she was always told to look out for her 'twin' and that the legitimate siblings came first. Because of that mindset, Niiemh has a small set of scars on her arm from an animal bite. A result of her defending Noamh from being attacked by the beast. She also took most of Noamh's punishments as they got older.
Although she was treated unfairly by her father's wife she still calls her 'Mother' as a sign of respect. She also does not blame any of her siblings. In fact she loves each of them. Of course she feels a deeper kinship with Viltre, Terrwyn, and Aelyn because they are treated the same way.
