About

An albino Tiefling with a penchant for glitter, gold and sparkles (although she's no idea where the sparkles and glitter that seem to follow her everywhere come from), Riss is generally a cheerful woman; especially when running schemes with, and just generally in the company of, her twin brother, Costa. She also likes to accompany his musical performances with off-key singing and embelish his stories with melodramatic - and often brooding - performances.

Traits
  • Loyal (potentially to a fault)
  • Cheerful
  • Cowardly
  • A little airheaded
Likes
  • Anything shiny, sparkly and/or gold
  • Spending time with Costa
  • Telling stories
  • Singing (despite being bad at it)
Background

Raised by loving parents alongside her twin brother, Costa, Riss had a pleasant upbringing travelling the world and never truly settling anywhere - something that has never really bothered her. Her brother was not, and still isn't, her only friend to be by her side; what her parents considered just to be an overactive imagination was in fact a friend from the fey - someone who grew up alongside Riss and Costa - sometimes revealing themself to the latter. They would play together and share stories; her friend having far wilder tales to tell, tales that made Riss yearn for her own daring adventure at times.

As the twins grew, Costa's natural talent for music and entertaining was welcomed and encouraged by their parents and Riss often tried to join in on the storytelling and the singing (she was far worse at the latter, but everyone still had a good time). However, she couldn't help but envy Costa's musical talent and despote trying to become an entertainer herself, she figured that was not the path for her, at least not going solo. In time she learnt that her Fey friend had an incredibly powerful relative, one who was willing to guide and nurture Riss as thanks for being a friend to they young Fey and in exchange for her loyalty, and thus Riss became a Warlock.

Trivia
  • Her body is perpetually covered in glitter, which follows wherever she goes
  • Lesbian
  • Her singing is almost always off-key, but that doesn't stop her
  • Her name means "Sea Nymph" in Greek (after the Starbucks siren, because Costa is also a popular UK coffee shop)
  • There's a glittery shimmer to all of her magic that isn't tied to her race

Costa

Brother
Riss and Costa have a strong bond and often look out for one another having been nigh on inseparable since birth. Their travelling, and now adventuring, takes them all over the place and they can often be found telling elaborate stories together - most of which aren't wholly true, or Riss taking a backseat to support her brother as he plays a tune that she knows all too well she can't keep to (not that she minds, sometimes she uses this opportunity to gather a few extra coins from the people watching the performance)
