Creation

Triss is a tiny sliver of one of a great, formless entity from beyond this reality. She was brought into the universe through magical means and imprisoned within an enchanted vessel. Her memories begin there, in the quiet dark of that prison. There's no telling how long she lay within it, but nearby construction caused a collapse in the underground chamber the vessel was in, freeing her and exposing her to the laws of the universe for the first time and forcing her to take form. The humans above were some of the first creatures she encountered, so it was a human form that she took first.

Humanity

As she explored her new reality, Triss quickly found humanity to be the most interesting of all life she encountered. She is fascinated in how humans cope with their inherent frailties, and finds them inspiring as well. She has spent most of her time wearing one human form after another, observing humanity from within and slowly learning the language and culture. Most recently she has chosen to try to take on more than a form, but also a more lingering identity, certain in her ability to pass as human now and curious for a closer view of society.

RP Hooks

Street life - Triss is one of the city's homeless at the moment. She doesn't make much of an impact on the streets, but it's not a secret that she drifts about.

Pickpocket - Triss rarely needs money, but when she does she often just.. takes it. Don't expect her to be wearing her usual face though.

Student - While not officially a student anywhere, Triss has a voracious appitite for knowledge, and can often be found at the libraries of the city.

Swimmer - When it's warm enough to allow for it, it's not uncommon to find Triss along the shore, going for a swim.

Mystical Aura - Attempts to sense magic on her are easier, and she always registers as using magic.

Wilderness - Triss is interested in observing all forms of life, and has no fear about tromping around in any kind of wilderness alone.
