›› Heavy eyelids, a beak-like downturned nose, full lips look always a bit pursed, moles. Eyes are light brown with a hint of green.
›› Short hair is dyed turquoise with a couple of magenta streaks. Wears usally turquoise eyeshadow, purple lipstick & nailpolish, and one golden earring.
›› Hourglass figure, strong biceps and thighs.
›› Tattoos; two green stripes over her left eye, a circle of a pikeperch, a whitefish & a komodo dragon on her right thigh, a bolt of lightning on her right bicep, a row of waves/sharkfins/? circling her left bicep, a nautical star on the base of her left thumb.
›› She's missing half of her left forefinger and ringfinger.
›› Evä's name is partly making fun of people adding umlauts, accents and other diacritics on letters for fun aesthetic. Eva is a traditional name, while Evä is finnish for a fin.
›› It also works with the theming of her. Ryba is a Western Slavic surname. In Polish, Czech and Slovak it means fish. At some point her animal form was supposed to be some kind of fish too, but in the end I decided a parrot would fit the pirate aesthetic better. At some point I was also considering the vampire ground finch for her animal form.
›› Some of her closest friends in her pirate crew were fish shifters though, and now she works at a Spa with many other fish people.
›› Evä was supposed to be a rp character in New Start, but never actually made it to the forum.
aloof / sarcastic / no-nonsense
›› Evä is a pirate turned spa-worker.
›› Evä and the small crew she was sailing the seas with were modern day pirates, stealing mostly from luxury yachts. Evä was young, agile and could fly so she was a deckhand and the lookout. Then her crew got caught, she didn't.
›› There was some business with illegal excotic pet trade, except the pets were shifters who turned into excotic animals.
›› In the end Evä got caught or maybe turned herself in and was sent to Sopeuttamiskeskus 52 where she met her old crew.
›› She started working at a Spa52, a spa operating at Torni's bath house floor, offering spa services and massages to the people of Torni.

A dystopian future where some people, shifters, turn into animals when they feel certain feelings. They are deemed dangerous by the Society and if they are caught they are locked up in a prison tower Sopeuttamislaitos 52, more simply known as Torni + where they supposedly should learn to control their shapeshifting.
In reality it's more like a prison with no guards and no contact with the outside world. No one has ever been let out. Over the years Torni has developed it's own society with its own jobs and gangs and customs.
Evä has been in Torni for less than a year.

(lit. the tower)
Torni consists of twelve floors. The first floor, a lobby or a plaza of sorts, where shipments of supplies and new prisoners arrive in big storage containers. The second floor, the rec room, has everything you need to pass the time from instruments to a gym. The third and ninth floors are dedicated to bazaar-like marketplaces.
4th, 5th and 6th floors are filled with small living quarters, called cabins. Since there aren't nearly enough of them for everyone, usually the way to get one is to forcibly evict the previous owners.
The seventh floor, Fortuna, is the area for showers, saunas and pools – and prostitution. The eight floor, Ruokala, is the dining hall where everyone gets one free daily meal. The tenth floor, Pimeä, is the carbage dump floor of Torni – but there is also a theatre room that has a small stage and projector for watching films (mostly propaganda and useless how-to videos).
The eleventh floor, the Luxury floor, and the roof above it, the Garden, are accessible only for the Leader and their gang.
Below all of these are the Cellar floor, which has the Infirmary, and even below that is a half-built parking carage.
