Caeleste - Year Five
Upon entering Caeleste, Calypso found herself lost in the Celestial Passage, where she eventually finds Pisces. She easily fools him into thinking she is an innocent wanderer and waits until he falls asleep to steal his necklace -- an item that holds his stardust and soul within in. An orb of light guides her out of the Passage and into the Celestial city.
She's not in the city long before a Tsunami sweeps through. Calypso is caught in the massive wave and is swept away. She tries her hardest to fight against the current and make it back to the surface, but the force of the water is too much and she drowns. As the water recedes her body is left in the middle of the street, where her brother Mako, Pisces, and Jezebel find her. Distraught, Mako uses a revival potion on her and then disappears. Calypso is brought back, shaken and confused, but otherwise alive.
Sometime after the wave, she is in the city's marketplace and Pisces finds her shortly after stealing a coin purse from a wealthy stallion and handing it over to an old beggar. He confronts her and they argue about the theft of his necklace, her chosen profession, and Jezebel...
Leaving the Celestial City, Calypso travels to the Amber Sands where she meets Godric, a stallion composed of the sea itself. She's intrigued by him and they talk a while and walk along the beach.

In The Past
Calyspo wasn't a child that was planned on by either one of her parents. She was the result that came about after a night of heavy drinking on both parts. They had never intended on having another child after the birth of their first and for this reason she was often neglected by the two of them when she was younger. It wasn't until she reached a year of age and started to show promise as a thief that they began to show some interest in her. They were even more pleased with her when she proved to them that she could disable alarm systems, which in turn allowed them to go after more dangerous loot.
She was paired with her older brother Mako, partly because he was the most experienced and skilled of their group, partly because he could help watch out for her, but mostly because she was the most useful to him. They worked well together, she disabling alarms, and he sneaking in and stealing what they were after before anyone knew any better. Time and again they were successful...
until they weren't.
On one particular night they had decided to go after their most high stakes target they'd ever had. Calypso's parents were convinced that it would be easier than they thought, so long as Calypso stayed focused on her job and didn't stray for anything. They told her over and over again, and over and over again she said that she understood.
When they got to the mansion and snuck inside all of their warnings were forgotten the minute she set her eyes on a sapphire and diamond necklace that was just sitting out in the open, begging to be stolen. Calypso was convinced that she had enough time, so she swiped the necklace, then continued on her way to disable the alarm system that guarded Mako's target.
She was mistaken.
She had only just reached her destination when the alarm sounded. Her heart sank to her stomach and she looked around, hoping to see Mako running toward her. "Mako!" She called, just loud enough to be heard over the alarm. "Mako!" But it wasn't Mako that found her. It was her father, looking concerned, then absolutely livid when he saw the necklace hanging around Calypso's neck.
"Get to the boat!" He hissed, snapping his teeth at the girl to get her to move. Obediently, Calypso ran to the boat, assuming her father would find Mako and bring him back with her. A short time later her father was on the boat, yelling for the crew to set sail without Mako. The crew hesitated, then went into motion, and soon they were sailing away, leaving Mako trapped and alone.
The punishment that came after was swift. The treasure that Calypso had stolen for herself was snatched away and thrown into the ocean and she was locked away in a small cell below the deck, where she stayed for several days until her parents sent someone down to release her.
Without Mako they had been far less successful in their heists. There was resentment growing toward her because it was known that it was her fault that he had been captured and left behind. Had it not been for her they would still have been a successful group, each one of them with their pockets jingling with coin.
They were docked offshore, once more trying to steal some miniscule treasure from what they had thought was an unwitting victim. Once again they were unsuccessful, but it was the last straw for the crew. Their anger toward Calypso had grown to such a point that when they boarded the ship again they attacked her while her parents watched on. Somehow, she's still unsure of exactly how she managed to get away from the group that started the attack. She jumped ship there, broken, bleeding, and sightless in one eye. Once on shore she took off and never looked back.
For several years Calypso traveled by herself, never staying too long with one group or committing herself whole heartedly to anything. Eventually she found herself within the borders of Caeleste.

Pisces
[ soulmate ]
Calypso met Pisces when the two of them became stranded and lost within a forest known as the Celestial Passage. Upon finding him, the first thing she saw was the necklace he wore around his neck and when he fell asleep she stole it from him and ran away. She did not know at the time that the necklace he wore held his very stardust within it and the moment she put it on she became bonded to him. In the process she lost her own necklace, one that was embued with her blood. Pisces found it and put it on, completing the bond that she unwittingly started. The pair were drawn together by the force of the bond and slowly began to fall in love and overcome the obstacles placed before them.
Godric
[ new friend ]
Calypso found Godric while she was walking on the beach. The pair hit it off easily and stood talking for quite a while. Her first impression of the stallion was that he was too kind, too trusting, and a bit foolish. Over time she came to view him as a friend and value the friendship that he offered. He, coincidentally, is one of the only men that she did not try to steal anything from.
Mako
[ older brother ]
When they were younger, Calypso and Mako were nearly inseparable. She idolized her older brother and strived to hone her skills so she could be as well versed in the art of infiltration and thievery as he was. A mistake on her part caused him to be caught and arrested. Because of this they spent years apart, and the distance hurt the relationship they once had. Mako has hard feelings for his sister because of his apprehension and her failure to find him and release him. When they are together now they can do little more than bicker and argue and blame one another for their failures. Calypso still does not know that Mako is the one that revived her after she drowned in the Tsunami that destroyed the Celestial City.
Jezebel
[ rival ]
There's not much about her that Calypso actually likes. In the time she and Pisces were apart, he grew closer to Jezebel. This inspired jealousy and dislike in Calypso. Despite Jezebel's continued friendship with Pisces, Calypso does not like her and does not want to associate with her.
