Name: Minerva
Class: Mage
Hair Color: Steel Blue
Eye Color: Hazel
Age: 20
Appearance: Minerva is a good looking woman, and she knows it -- standing at about 5'4", she usually has a small smirk to let you know that she's been watching you stare at her for a long time. Although you can't see it, she's also a know-it-all, and enjoys predicting (usually correctly) people's responses to her subtle jibes and come-ons.
Clothes: Minerva's attire is a strange cloak, lined on the inside with fur to keep out the chill of her native land, but having a low neckline and exposing her shoulders. This cloak, black and gold, is a hand-me down, the only possession she owns of her mother. Under her cloak, a long and flowing black skirt, slashed on the sides to allow enhanced movement of her legs.
Born in: Ilia
Story: The illegitimate daughter of a noble woman and a noble man, Minerva was always told by her father that her mother had 'died.' After finding out from a little sleuthing that her mother was in fact simply too embarrassed to admit that her father had seduced her, Minerva took matters into her own hands. Always good at 'psychology,' the thirteen-year-old girl used the very persuasive idea of Minerva's true parentage "slipping out" to coerce her mother into funding Pegasus training for her daughter. The young Minerva showed surprisingly little talent at riding winged beasts, and so decided to study magic instead. On this track, she had much more aptitude for it, and quickly advanced in her studies over the next six years. Having come of age, and strongly disliking the thought of a life restrained to clothes-washing and childbirth (damn ye, Cult of Domesticity!), the attractive young lady took to the roads, using her looks and skills alike to further her travels. She arrived in Lycia a year later, at twenty, and from this region began to turn her views outward and elsewhere.
Edit (1): Minerva has certainly stirred up trouble, alternating between casual banditry and smuggling as she improves her magical craft. She assisted Hargus's forces at the City of Heroes, and made a living for a while smuggling spice between the Isles and the mainland. Now, she continues her wandering, trying to decide whether to involve herself in the defense of Ilia or merely capitalize on the opportunities provided by the conflict.
