Hobbies:
- Gardening -- Tending plants is something all Liriopans have a natural affinity for and instinct-like drive to accomplish, and Vasi is no exception. It is common for her kind to "specialize" in a single "type" (ferns, flowering, coniferous, etc.), and Vasi's specialty is mosses. They're not huge and showy, they're not very sturdy, they aren't a huge supplier of nutrients, but she gushes over them like one would a precious pet, and she is adept at helping her herbaceous babies to spread and flourish- particularly in an aesthetic setting. She loves decorating! It's not enough to keep her plants in pots in a garden, they should be everywhere! Creeping up the walls and strung from the ceiling. It's hardly her den if it doesn't have a musky, rainforesty aroma and pretty green ambiance.
Scavenging -- A necessary evil, Vasi spent the last decade scouring her world for anything of use. Sometimes food, sometimes shelter, sometimes trinkets left behind by those who were lost. She is very good at looking for things. Upon her introduction to Earth, she is becoming increasingly aware that she’s good at looking for things to purchase. She loves thrifting and spending money and hunting for the best deal! Buy two, get one free? Of what? Doesn’t matter. Vasi has decided she is completely in love with couponing and researching the best bargain and getting everything she can at a good price. Any random stranger can offer to go shopping with her, and she’ll be all over it.
Hunting -- Don't be fooled into thinking this cervine lady is an herbivore. Even before her world's fall, Vasiliki was an avid huntress and fisherman, excelling in use of all manner of tools to hunt all size of specimen. Her world was practically a vacation oasis, which drew many adventurers from off world. Sport hunting was a prime activity, and Vasiliki was well-versed in guiding those interested in the proper way to hunt her world’s beasts, as well as use of weaponry ranging from blades and simple projectiles to bare-handed brawls. She has a slight preference for the elegance of archery, but she’s more than capable of getting up close and personal.
Sailing -- Given how long she'd been on her own for, Vasi had more than enough opportunity to pick up some new hobbies. Sailing was a common activity on her world, given how much of it was water, but it was almost always considered a team activity more for transport than for leisure. Once her team had all fallen, she had to figure out how to get from island to island alone. It was sad, at first, being something she wasn’t used to, but eventually it started to seem like the oceans of her world were the last bit of “normal” she had left. When she was sailing, she could almost imagine that a beautiful, green island was waiting for her over the horizon…
Virtues:
- Enduring -- A quiet sufferer, despite being very vibrant with things she enjoys. Vasiliki doesn't want to propagate needless upset, and she especially does not want to be the root of it by being... overly vocal about her strifes and burdening others with problems not their own. Most Liriopans had experienced little struggle until their world's fall, so it was typical etiquette to handle one's own problems alone. Vasi is the same. She will tackle any issue with a headstrong attitude, and if there is nothing to be done, she waits patiently until an opportunity arises.
Even-tempered -- Vasiliki is typically a mellow, friendly girl. At one point she was accustomed to dealing with (admittedly infrequent) civil disputes on her planet, and it was important to her that she not get heavily invested in one side over the other or to become too passionate or offended over her brethren's thoughts and actions. They are supposed to all be allies, and she was wary of showing favoritism. She is difficult to offend or upset and couldn't actually tell you off the top of her head what would upset her! And then after that, after the fall of her world and loss of everything and everyone she'd ever known, it really feels like there's absolutely nothing else that can wound her so deeply. If hardly anything upset her before, certainly nothing will now...
Vibrant -- Vasi has what was colloquially known as "vacation spirit." As a girl who served as the spokesperson and representative of a very touristy planet, she was brought up on how to be charming, welcoming, fun, and eager. She is very into trying new things with new people and is usually chipper, smiley, and well-mannered. Energetic and enthusiastic without being "overbearing" or "too much" or hyper, Vasi was well-loved by her world, and treated them in turn. Despite some hesitance on her initial introduction to Earth, she is warming up and is ready to treat this new world like home.
Flaws:
- Distant -- The fact of the matter is that it's been a long time since Vasiliki has had much interaction with people. She is sweet and vibrant, but she's also been hurt in unimaginable ways, and the recovery from that is slow-going. She still trusts and loves, but it can sometimes be hard for her to remember how to conduct herself around others in all the positive ways she used to be able to, and as a defensive coping mechanism, it can take her a long time to recognize any attachment she feels to someone else.
Spacey -- Vasi has a way of going into autopilot mode at seemingly random intervals, where she abruptly loses interest in people and activities she's doing for short stretches of time (sometimes a few minutes, sometimes a little longer). Nothing in particular seems to set it off. She can be with friends or alone, occupied or not. She used to say that she was just "tired," and that her energy threshold had just slammed into its limit, but she also just looks kind of sad in autopilot. It's a very dreary state devoid of all of the vibrancy that is her norm, and it has been known to make her friends worry. She insists she's fine, and it doesn't cause her to do or say anything dangerous or rude, so what's the problem?
Ditzy -- Vasiliki is totally aware of it, and absolutely hates it! She is supposed to be a cunning and elegant leader who guides those around her... But she feels incredibly stupid, no matter much how effort she puts into learning. For the record, she isn't "stupid," but it does take her a bit too long to mentally gather up all relevant information and piece together something coherent to say. Vasi is not much of a critical thinker and prefers loose and breezy situations... Sometimes she doesn't have time for all that forethought and such.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
- Eyes: Large, pretty aqua eyes. Big irises with little visible white.
Hair: Dark reddish-brown and falls straight to her mid-back. Has fluffy, short bangs, and typically wears sections tied forward over her shoulders.
Face: Has a young, round face. Small nose, little lips.
Skin Tone: Naturally pale with a very slight tan.
Body Type: Vasi stands at an unimpressive 5'3," but despite her youthful features, it is clear that she has some sort of workout routine. She is very active with a high metabolism, giving her a long and lithe look, despite being short, overall.
Clothes: She knows she likes colors but is a little skeptical of Earth styles. Mostly she lets her friend and sponsor Tarra dress her, so she ends up in dresses frequently. Vasi doesn't mind this. Dresses and skirts seem much more comfortable than pants, and they almost mimic her world's "formal wear" to some degree. If it wasn't so terribly cold, Vasi would be in a bikini top and short skirt every day.
