Fey Tyrian
Return to Luminescoir
Creator: Silvern
Roleplay: Luminescoir
Nickname: Fey
Name: Fey Tyrian
Age: 27
Gender: Female, she/her
Romantic Orientation: Lesbian
Vibriant Type: Indigon
Tattoo Location: Collarbone
Appearance: Fey's skin is a pale lavender, clashing deeply with the dark indigo of her hair, which is kept to a short, sharp pixie cut. Her eyes are a deep, piercing midnight purple, and between that and her near-constantly, gravitationally raised eyebrows, she tends to look like she's seeing right through you (and rather unimpressed by what she sees). This is, in fact, a generally correct perception of her expression. Her limbs are lithe and lean, and her hands are nimble and long-fingered like a pianist. Fey has a soft butch fashion style, pairing sturdy garments with elegant ones, although her outfits usually include a button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled up to reveal tattoos she's not technically allowed to have.
Personality: Fey moves, talks and behaves with a disaffected, almost lethargic elegance. She speaks in a smooth, sotto voce drawl, with every word sounding like she's sharing a secret, or trying to lure one out of you. The exception to this is if she's kicking you out of her bar, and she's not afraid to be loud and firm. Despite her detached, aloof appearance, Fey knows everything that's happening inside her bar-- and most of what happens outside it. People share everything with their bartender. While she keeps most of these secrets for herself, she can persuaded to share anything for the right price or bargain... unless you side with the Lumen. Fey is incredibly skilled at picking out law enforcement or anyone who sympathizes too strongly with them in a large group. She never has to kick them to the curb; a silent, subtle signal to her patrons will tip them off, and they will usually leave in hurried shame after finding themselves shunned or threatened by the crowd.
Fey is an enabler of any illicit activity in her corner of the underground, acting as a gatekeeper to the black market. However, she rarely takes direct action to do anything herself, preferring to turn a blind eye or quietly offering a word of advice to someone before leaving them to it. She's happier to observe and add to her secrets and connections. Fey enjoys her position as someone practically untouchable, even by the Lumen-- the few times someone stormed in to raise an issue with her, it didn't go well. It's never a good idea to mess with the person who pours the drinks, and the community she serves is ready to leap to her defense in a heartbeat.
Occupation: The Bartender
Short History: Fey was lucky enough to be adopted by a Thaumamen named Zaffre, especially considering he was a Prime Vibriant and she was not. Zaffre ran a speak-easy called The Nightshade Den in the underground of Iridescence City, which had a reputation for being a safe place for those looking to distance themselves from the rule of law. Fey learned his ways of being a pillar of the community, and became an expert at managing a bar and haven in one. She would have to put her learning to the test when Zaffre was caught sneaking Off-Colors into the city and helping them pass as Periphery Vibriants, to be hauled off and presumably imprisoned. Fey never learned what became of her adoptive father, but she resolved to make him proud anyway. She continues to run The Nightshade Den and offer sanctuary, just as he would-- while being harder to catch.
