 Una Stillwater
'''Name:''' Una Stillwater '''Age:''' 23 '''Race:''' galdori '''Place of Origin:''' Vienda
!!!Backstory: Born to wealthy socialites Una never saw much of her oh so glamorous mother and father and so spent much of her early childhood moping around. On rare occasion when Una had snuck into the kitchen she relished the gossip the servants shared. When dinner parties rolled around Una found hiding places and eavesdropped on the idle conversations between her parent’s dinner guests. When she was firmly pushed towards Brunnhold, Una quickly gathered up “friends” and became a most popular girl revelling in being cheeky and honing her sweet talk allowing her to get away with almost anything. Luckily Una did have some magical ability but was easily bored by it and became cocky in her school years and with little study sailed through tests and essays. Una leeched off her parents’ fortune after her schooling ended and often attended parties with them.
One night this all changed, Una returned late from a party and found her parents lain dead on the floor with not a blemish on them. Her distant uncle sent a bumbling detective to solve the "mystery" and pinned the blame on Una. Seeing that she could do a better job Una secretly took up the case herself. She found that her parent's friends were not who they seemed and albeit it may have been one of them she dropped the case not wanting to meddle in affairs that were not hers.
However she did find more than the other detective and this sparked an interest in becoming one herself. Una changed her tact with the bumbling detective and unbeknownst to him started shadowing the poor man. When Una felt confident enough she began stealing his cases and collecting rewards before the other detective even had a chance to compile his notes. So in the galdori world of lavish balls and illicit affairs, Una had become well known for unravelling mysteries from where the Lady of the house got her dress from to who burnt down the family home.
!!!Personality: Una at first appears cold and self centred, like most galdor and she trusts few with her heart. She is not the loudest person you will meet but does command attention when she talks and if needed will take the role of a natural leader. She is curt with strangers and doesn’t often know when to hold her sharp tounge. Due to her teenage antics she has become sly and enjoys making fools of people.
!!!Physical Description: Una is tall for her race but retains her small and slight frame and so looks elegant and graceful. Her breasts are annoyingly small as are her feet. Una has a delicate heart shaped face with sharp features and thin lips. Her eyes are golden yellow and slanted. Una has elaborate burgundy coloured hair that reaches down just past her shoulder and ends in large curls. Una talks with a slight lisp. Una would not been seen dead in anything but the latest fashions and the most glamorous of jewels.
!!!Inventory:
Weapons: *Silver Pistol kept in delicate case
Stuff: * Leather bound folder containing notes on various cases *Magnifying glasses with mother of pearl handle *Make up *Writing paraphernalia *Various items of clothing !!!Career:
Socialite *Small Talk *Presence in a room *Ability to look divine (with make-up)
Private Detective *Perception of others *Ability to find motives *Love of other personal information
!!!Goals Set up an office in Vienda Earn Money Gain higher social status than parents (possibly through marriage)

 Re: Una Stillwater
Hi Una! Wow, this IS long-awaited. I was hoping you'd finally post  I like the character a lot, she seems very interesting, like a walking contradiction, a badass fashionista! I have a small concern with the last part of your backstory. While being a detective is awesome, you don't say whether she ever discovered (or wants to discover) her parents' killers. There are a lot of potential problems with leaving mysteries in a backstory (see this link for an explanation on that). Your goals don't mention it, so I'm assuming it's not your character's driving motivation. If she's lost interest in solving it (I wouldn't be surprised, given her relationship with them), it would tell us a bit more about her character, so I'd appreciate it if you'd expand on her detective work a little. Thanks much
