Phyiscal Description:
Likes: Dancing. Parties. Exploring the city.
Dislikes: Being flirted with. Condescension and too much pride.
Hobbies: Making dolls and stuffed animals. Learning about different subjects.

Fears/Insecurities:
Theme Song:
Traits: Dutiful. Reckless. Mischievous. Responsible. Stubborn. Quick-witted. Thrifty. Prideful.
Personality:Forced to grow up fast, Deidameia is a young lady with a lot of responsibilities on her shoulders. But she doesn't buckle under the pressure. Instead, she takes to each new job with enthusiasm, thrilled that she is trusted with so much that normally would have gone to the heir. She helps manage the books and estate, even going so far as to take on some of her mother's duties since Olena has become too sick to leave her bed. She is graceful of speech and movement and courteous to everyone she meets, always trying to spare a smile for them. She even regularly visits the local orphanages or families in need. With her family in debt, she cant spare too much more most of the time. So instead she shares the dolls and stuffed animals she makes in her spare time with the children and offers a sympathetic ear to their parents.
To most who meet her, she can come off as just another boring, disciplined noble's daughter posing herself for show for every eligible bachelor in the area like a good young noble would do. No one would guess that this dutiful, charming young woman has a slightly mischievous side.
When the duties become too much, Deidameia indulges in a more playful side that is rarely seen by anyone outside the close family and servants. She will play small pranks on the staff, harmless and merely an inconvenience to their day. Hiding things. Switching tools around. At her worst, she'll make dolls of certain people and leave them around, sometimes even with a pin or two in them if she feels particularly offended by someone.
Or when not doing this or making dolls, she'll sneak out of the estate, hiding under a shabby cloak and pose as a common woman to explore the city. For protection, she's been trained by combat masters hired by her paranoid father and she keeps knives hidden about her person. She understands the dangers of leaving the estate with all that debt still left unpaid and all the enemies the family has made during the later years of the war, but Deidameia simply can't just sit back and live a docile life forever.
Facts
-- Regularly crafts dolls of those she dislikes or who annoyed her in order to vent at them.
-- Likes visiting orphanages or families in need to give the children some of the toys she makes. ~~~~~

♡History♡
~~~~~ Up To PrenticeLife under Oban politics can be difficult. It can be even more difficult when your family is slowing losing money from different built up debts.
Matheo wasn't the intended heir of the family. He was the youngest of two sons, with a sister who had been born three years before he was. Though he was taught in most of the same subjects, Railan was the heir and thus received more attention than his brother, being given harder subjects that dealt with the finer workings of running a family estate. He was given more responsibilities, leaving Matheo to spend his free time mostly as he saw fit. He was perceived as stupid and not worth the extra energy. His sister was trained as most young women in prestigious positions were, to be charming and polite. She excelled at it, as did Railan at his studies.
However, one day during a riding lesson, when he was 23 years old, Railan took a fall and hit his head sharply on a rock. He was rushed back inside and a healer called, who worked as much magic as she could over the fallen heir. She stuffed many different concoctions down his throat, often nearly choking him when he couldn't swallow it fast enough. After a week of this, after a week of vigilantly staying guard by his bedside for any changes, the young man passed away in his sleep. The family was naturally devastated over the loss of their eldest boy, not just because he was now gone forever from their lives. He left behind him a younger brother not as educated as himself, who now had to study hard and spend all his free time catching up to his brother's previous store of knowledge. Matheo was now the family heir and he detested it with every fiber of his being. He had counseled himself with enjoying his wealthy lifestyle and eventually being given the hand of some noble's beautiful daughter as a wife. Now he had to work hard to earn that privilege. Something that he would refuse to do.
Soon after the death of his brother, his father followed suit, collapsing one day and dying minutes later. Now 18, the fate of the estate was left to him. Still young and in love with life, Matheo indulged himself even more on expensive drinks, food, gambling, and pretty women. So much so, that he raked up debts. At first, he was able to easily pay them off. But since he was hardly paying attention to the family accounts, this soon ended. He had amassed too much, too fast, and couldn't deal with it. He was stuck with few options.
In another part of the city was another family. Olena was the youngest of four sisters, a prized daughter of her parents ever since she was a tiny baby who could do nothing but coo at everyone and wave her little hands around.
As it was with spoiled children, she grew up spoiled and entitled, throwing tantrums with everyone until they relented and gave her her way. She would play pranks on the servants or make impossible demands on them they could never fulfill when she was bored, just to amuse herself. She was the leading cause for many being fired. When they couldn't provide for her what she desired, she would plant false evidence on them and accuse them of crimes such as stealing her mother's jewelry, slipping it into their pockets with a practiced hand. Her sisters tried to correct her behavior, but eventually gave up after the screaming fits proved too much for their ears to bear and the adults punishing them grew too much to bear. Olena was left unchallenged until she was 18. In a tragic accident, both her parents lost their live and she and her unmarried sisters were sent to live with their aunt and uncle who had little tolerance for Olena's behavior. Having gone unchecked for years, she was sneaking out at night to meet with friends and boys at local taverns and inns to return at all hours of the morning. They decided she needed to be married off as fast as possible, so that she would than be the problem of someone else. But who would take such an unruly girl? Fortunately for her aunt and uncle, one of those boys Olena had been visiting with was Matheo. Under the safety of the darkness, they had been meeting for the past year and continued to secretly for the next two. Attempts to wed her went nowhere. That is until she suddenly fell pregnant. Not wholly unexpected news. Everyone was waiting for this very thing to happen. But who was the father of the child? Olena didn't keep anyone waiting too long. As soon as her condition was discovered, she named him. Matheo.
The two were wed quickly to cover up the scandal of a child out of wedlock. But her uncle had another motive. For years, he had been questioning the true illegitimacy of the child. By some sheer happenstance, all three of the eldest daughters looked as if they belonged in his family line. The youngest, however, had features that were inconsistent. It was known that the wife had been having an affair behind her husband's back. Whether he was unaware or simply didn't care for love for her, it was unclear. What was clear was the way he doted on this youngest child. His brother knew better. No decent noble would keep another man's bloodline in his own household. So he jumped at the chance to have a real reason to be rid of her. She was now off his hands and in the care of someone else. He was left to take care of his remaining niece who still remained to be married off.
Olena had a difficult labor, struggling with the pain for almost two days. When finally she gave birth, it was a little girl, with the softest looking pink hair she had ever seen. As with most mothers, she was instantly in love with her little girl. Her father, however, took some time to truly love his daughter. She was not a boy and besides, he didn't think she even really looked that much like him. Knowing Olena's past, he now suspected he had been tricked and was being forced to raise another man's child. But, since divorce was not an option in his family's believes, he was stuck with her. So they decided the only thing they could do as a married couple was keep trying for a boy. Olena didn't mind too much. She doted on her daughter, spending most of her time with the child.
Now, over the years, Matheo had piled up some debts from his younger years. Gambling debts still unpaid. Borrowed money. And over-expenditure from a lavish lifestyle. Now that he was older and more mature, he was working on paying those off. With the help of friends in high places and lots of hardwork, he eventually was debt-free.
Than the end of the war came near. A portion of his money had been going towards a side that was now losing. Fearing the consequences, he changed sides, using his slowly built up fortune to pay off other nobles to keep him safe, putting himself back into major debt. It was around this time that the desired son was born.
Dion was the opposite of his older sister. Where Deidameia studied intently and tried her best to use the manners her governess was teaching her, Dion acted out. He didn't want to listen to his teachers or do his studies. He didn't like reading. He wanted to go out riding or playing, all the way up to his teenage years when he should have been learning the necessary skills to run the estate after Matheo. He became increasingly hard to find as he aged, apparently taking after both his parent's more wild sides. Leaving his sister to take over in his stead. Deidameia read from his books, teaching herself how to run the household and accounts. She would get a chance to prove herself capable when she looked in one her father one day in his study. He wasn't there, but his books were open on his desk. When he entered the room later, he found her sitting there, sorting through things and solving problems that had stumped him for hours. It was here that he started to grow more respect for her. He gave her more responsibilities, things that Dion should have done. She was allowed to sit in on his meetings, offering him helpful advice afterwards. He even hired a master to teach her simple self-defense, for fear someone would see her and take her hostage in revenge for his cowardly side-change. Dion was all but forgotten. For Deidameia, this was some of the happiest moments in her young life. She relished the challenges and responsibility. But unknown to most in the house, she had her own rebellious side. She liked to cover up and wander the streets, often stopping by the orphanages with her bag full of the stuffed animals and dolls she would make in her spare time. The self-defense skills she had learned and a little bit of caution inherited from watching her father's paranoia helped her to survive the streets. But she also knew that it could not last forever. She would eventually have to make a good marriage and leave the comfort of her family. ~~~~~
