Introduction
Name: Felicity Laima
Age: 104
Race: Cecaelia
Kingdom: Erythraeus
Description
Appearance: It’s a good thing that Felicity likes the color blue because her tentacles, hair, and eyes are that color. Or maybe that’s the reason that’s fond of that color. One should like themselves after all. She tends to wear clothes that are comfortable to travel in because she certainly does a good amount of moving around. She’s all got a fondness for large hats, and most notably wears a red one. It helps keep the bright sunbeams of Erythareus out of your eyes anyways. She is about 5’6” with wiry athletic build. Felicity is a fan of jewelry, and tends to have some from all the places that she has visited.
Like & Dislikes: The open waters… Felicity can never get over the beautiful untouched landscape. That being said, she also loves the hustle and bustle of Erythraeus with its beautiful colors. She’s never been a fan of Cotovatre however. The land is too grey and horribly uptight. She doesn’t like spending time alone, but she can tolerate. She much prefers to be around people than with her own thoughts.
Philosophy: No one’s going to look out for you, but you. That’s the code she lives her life by. Some might call it selfish, but she is sure that she’ll always survive so long as she keeps that in mind. However, that’s not to say she won’t help people. So long as it doesn’t hurt her in any way, she’ll lend a hand. Besides, forming working relationships is an important part of life. Another important part of life is always ask for your money upfront because no one’s going to con anything out of her. Her last tenant is enjoy life because unless you’re a sea witch, we’re all mortal, so Felicity tends to be incredibly hedonistic.
Background
History: Felicity was the eldest daughter of Arlyn and Kelsie Laima. Arlyn was a master of a masonry guild while Kelsie worked to keep Arlyn’s shop in order. Much of her childhood was running around with her sister Lula, driving Kelsie up a wall, and occasionally helping her parents out.
Arlyn died rather suddenly on a fall morning. He appeared to be in relatively good health, but life is ever unpredictable. It took a long time for the family to resume life normally after his passing, and no one was quite the same afterward. Felicity spent more and more time away from home. Lula became much more introverted. Kelsie spent more time lost in her own thoughts. Lucky for the family, they continued to live comfortably even after his death.
At some point, Kelsie found love again with a younger Cecaelia man named Akar Sarka. Akar was nothing if not charming, and he had the kind of voice that could talk you into anything. He was a merchant of leather goods, and spent most of his time mooching off Kelsie. Before she knew what happened, he gambled away most of her assets before running off, leaving the family impoverished.
With little remaining of her life with Arlyn and no way to provide for her children, Kelsie entered a deep depression. Lula spent most of the time blaming her mother before eventually running off. Felicity hasn’t seen the girl in the last 50 years. She took it upon herself to support her mother the best she can. She always swears if she runs into Akar, she’s going to kill him.
Felicity works these days as a courier. However, she’s pretty lax as far as most couriers go, never asking too many questions about what she’s transporting exactly. That being said, she has a strict rule where she doesn’t transport slaves, not supporting the practice.
Only in the last 5 years has any sort proficiency in Caeruleus shown itself. During a surge in the current on a trip to Haesitatus, she managed to escape but slowing the flow of water. Any subsequent times she tried to use her power resulted in the uncontrollably movement of water, injuring herself a few times in the process. She’s elected to more or less stop trying, feeling like she isn’t that good at it.

Inventory:
Large red pirate hat
Pair of work gloves
Cutlass
A seafoam green hippocamp named Ea
Powers:
Partly because she was a late bloomer and developed her powers much later than most, Felicity was never taken away to be trained. As a result, she doesn’t know how to use Caeruleus. She only sort of understands the extent of her powers, and the use of it tends to result in… well, let’s call them accidents. The one strains she has is a form of current manipulation. She can speed up or slow down waters as well as change direction.
