Ylva Lamaen
Appearance
Clothing picture. Face picture.
If you were lucky enough to spot the woman standing still for just a moment, you'd notice that she had a very distinctly... rogue look. Every item of clothing, from the messy side-braid, to the tattered skirt grasping onto her pants, was purposefully put there. Her eyes were slightly slanted, distinctive, bright and loyal to those she had left back home many years ago. One would find her often covered in dust or dirt from the nearest rooftop, yet somehow, she managed to wash daily and present with pride. The twin daggers at her sides probably helped.
Ylva's pointed and prominent features gave away her descent quickly, despite her efforts to hide it under her hood half of the time. A small silver ring laid almost delicately at her septum, and her tall ears were pierced several times, but not in the lobes. While Ylva definitely did not belong in the innermost circles of most places, she certainly wasn't scruffy or unappealing by any means.

Skills and Abilities
What is Ylva good at? Stealing things. She's good at hiding in the shadows, covering her tracks, and walking lightly. But those aren't her only skills. The elven woman can track animals, cast and create magic, handle animals well, hold herself in a fight and scale the tallest of buildings with a few leaps and bounds. With charisma galore too, the woman would also spend most of her nights charming someone out of a few gold pieces, or drinks. Whatever her hunger called for.
Her abilities aren't evident upon first glance, but the longer you watched her, the more she blossomed into an extremely talented and wild child.

Personality
Fiercely independent, she'd rarely be found relying on others for a good time, or the few coins that would see her through the rest of the week. Amiable, to the right kind of people, Ylva doesn't often divulge much about herself and likes to play with her cards close to her chest. She was almost always frugal, flighty and confident in herself and her own abilities. Occasionally, she'd come across as arrogant, but then, who didn't?
Biography & Lore
The known history of Ylva Lamaen is very small. There wasn't much she'd tell you, that you couldn't already pick from her features and spoken languages. Get to know her to find out more.
Magic
Ylva can cast spells, but only if she has the right kind of materials on her person. She has an enchanted pouch on her hip that can hold 1 cubic meter of items in it. This was the most expensive thing she had ever purchased, the most gold she had ever spent.
Spectral wolves: With the right kind of incense, and words, Ylva can create three white spectral wolves that encircle her. They can attack the person she is focusing on, but they do relatively low damage. Apart from being semi-transparent, they have bright and glowing purple eyes that match her own. The spell lasts as long as the incense she burns (roughly 10 mins), until someone stamps it out, or she calls them off.
