Gender: Female

Physical appearance: Letari, to be honest, is rather on the short side, not to mention on the pudgier. As seadweller she's always been on the more privileged end of things, and she looks like it, even if she doesn't enjoy donning the more extravagant accessories favored by peers. It's really more of something in her big-eyed, bespectacled (I'd say beglassed, except I then run into the problem of using a word that doesn't exist. Poot. Also, the lenses in question are pretty much... elliptic in shape, if you must know), vaguely innocent facial features. A sense of a naiveté might be a good way to put it. The bright violet ribbon in her (overly) fluffy, braided hair adds to the look, too. As I alluded to before, though, she's got little in the way of fancy clothing; typical attire consists of (basically) one overlarge black sweater complete with obligatory symbol, a headband, comfortable black trousers! pants, and rainboots, because those are obviously practical footwear for the everyday seadweller. Her horns saunter vaguely upwards for a bit before curling outwards into circle-esque shapes.

Personality: Letari has always been... distant, whether she wants to be or not. For the most part she always means well, but she has a habit of drifting off and rambling.

Even when she has company, she feels lonely. That is, when she has company. She's very used to a very solitary lifestyle (not counting her dear, sweet, dreadfully embarrassing lusus, of course), fishing and swimming and dabbling in the arts (she likes that it preoccupies her). Letari guesses she just never got around to socializing, and, as a result, often doesn't know where to begin. She even sometimes feels out of place in the sea. The water has always been her home, but there's always that sense that it's stifling her. Holding her in. The land and air have always seemed so much freer. But she doesn't belong there, either. Goddamn gills. (She's never liked the way they look, and appearances are very much a concern of hers.)

Still, she likes to try to keep her spirits up and her chin high. After all, she's quite lucky to have been born into such a high caste--had she been born a lowblood (free to run and unbound by gold), no doubt she wouldn't have been able to take up painting. No doubt she's be more psychically susceptible, and physically weaker at that. And she's not completely without friends; no matter how much she feels alone, she comforts herself with the knowledge that, in actuality, she does have a kind, healthy lusus and close friends.

But that doesn't stop her from worrying that she'll lose them.

Typing Quirk/Color: dooesnt usually use any soort of capitalizatioon oor punctuatioon but dooubles all her oo's,
cood damn her silly accent, which its suppoosed to mimic (as yoou can sea it dooesnt always mesh very well with her fish puns when she tries)
she alsoo tries too avooid using woords with doouble oo's. yoou can proobably see why.
uses ALL CAPS when especially flustered
Blood color: Violet (#640154)
Symbol: The astrological symbol for opposition:

Lusus: An awkward, six-foot tall penguin-esque bird, appropriately incapable of flight and totally at home in the water. So classy. Leta's very embarrassed to be seen with her. Nonetheless, the penguinmom is very understanding and overly doting, so it's all okay, you know?

Strengths: Spirited, kindhearted, reasonably competent artist, strong/athletic (caste benefits!), good swimmer, very thoughtful, detail-oriented
Weaknesses: Can be overly thoughtful, awkward, easily flustered/distracted, prone to worrying, prone to distancing herself (often unintentionally), unhealthily appearance-focused
Fears/Insecurities: Losing her friends/lusus for good (i.e. actually being alone), her plump figure, ruining her reputation
Likes: Any sort of company, art, pretty/colorful/shiny things (what a magpie), fishing/hunting, glasses that are half full
Dislikes: Embarrassment, ugly things, hemospectrum complications, her own weird accent, feeling out of place
Driving force: Holding on to her comforts (reputation, friends, etc.)
Hobbies: Fishing, painting, collecting shells and other assorted completely useless decorative-type objects

God Tier Title: Knight of Space
Land: Land of Brume and Frogs [LOBAF]
Derse or Prospit: Derse
Weapon: Speargunkind, clearly!

Describe your character in three words: Lonely, artistic worrywart
If your character were stranded on an island and could only bring two things with them, what would they be?: Her lusus and her paints.

If your character could change anything about themselves, what would they change?: If you asked her, she'd probably say it'd be her crippling lack of ability to properly function in social situations, but in actuality she'd be pretty tempted to, like, make herself more conventionally attractive, because she's much too fixated on that kind of thing. Cue the disapproval.
Your character opens their fridge; what do they see?: Seafood. Lots and lots of seafood. She and her lusus keep themselves very well fed, and perpetually smelling of fish. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but sometimes it is, for all the obvious reasons.
Other: N/A
