Introduction
"It’s said that the shuffling of the cards is the earth, and the pattering of the cards is the rain, and the beating of the cards is the wind, and the pointing of the cards is the fire. That’s of the four suits. But the Greater Trumps, it’s said, are the meaning of all process and the measure of the everlasting dance."


― Charles Williams


"This is why alchemy exists," the boy said. "So that everyone will search for his treasure, find it, and then want to be better than he was in his former life. Lead will play its role until the world has no further need for lead; and then lead will have to turn itself into gold. That's what alchemists do. They show that, when we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better, too."
― Paulo Coelho

Contacts
Fpdot.png Anabelle: "I refuse to turn my back on fate, and running into someone not only willing to give me a job but to take on an apprentice, out of the blue like that? That had to be serendipity. I just hope she doesn't change her mind when she learns more, but it's a bridge that will have to be crossed."

Fpdot.png Kalisha: "Speaking of serendipity. I wonder how long it will be before her troupe makes it back to town."

Fpdot.png Locke: "One of the most unexpectedly interesting conversations I've had in ages. I do hope paths cross again; I'd like a second round, I think."

Fpdot.png Slaine: "A bit of a kindred spirit, I think, even if I'm only a dabbler in the mysteries that seem to have swept her up. One that definitely seems worth looking up again."

RP Hooks
Fpdot.png Los Angeles
Born and raised in the City of Angels, Viv's face is one well-known in the right circles. From the private school she was sent to in Santa Monica, to the inner circles that make the movie industry run, she's had contact with both. For those who see beyond the mortal side of things, and who have contacts in the fae courts there, they may have run across Viv while she as serving as a squire in training.

Fpdot.png Bartending

Even before it was entirely legal, Viv has worked as a bartender in various clubs and roaming raves. It's why she originally came down to Prospect as well, though the job that was lined up fell through before she arrived. Those familiar with the club scene in LA may have met her through those channels.

Fpdot.png Unseelie

Viv may serve House Eiluned, but she's also open about being a member of the Unseelie court. Trained in all the formal rules and rites of faerie courts, she's just as happy to throw those rules to the wind when they don't suit her. There's probably a legion of more tradtionally-minded sidhe clucking their tongues in despair behind her back.

Still more apprentice than master, the quest for perfection through transformation is one that calls to her.
