PERSONALITY

Positive Traits:
-- Courageous: Virisca is very capable of hiding any inner fears she may have and pursuing what she believes in. She will never back down from a challenge.

-- Faithful: Virisca believes fully in the power of Vynikani and chaos and will follow her goddess to whatever end. She turns to the Goddess of Discord for any guidance she might need.

-- Strong of Mind: There is little anyone could say to hurt Virisca. She definitely believes in the old say: "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." Also, she will never back down from what she believes in.

-- Humorous: Though her humor is dry and dark, Virisca is often making jokes or sarcastic comments.

-- Proud: She is proud of herself, her order and her goddess. This pride gives her more courage to do things that seem impossible to the eyes of others.

-- Logical: Virisca always thinks things through logically instead of emotionally. She will never throw aside common sense for something less practical such as love.

Negative Traits:
-- Arrogant: With such pride comes arrogance and narcissism as well. Virisca thinks entirely too highly of herself and her abilities.

-- Too Much Faith: Her deep faith in Vynikani can lead her astray from time to time.

-- Reckless: Though she is a pragmatic thinker, Virisca sometimes simply does not think about consequences and rushes into situations, not blinded by emotion, but by faith.

-- Hostile: To other Orders and even her own followers sometimes, Virisca is extremely hostile and unfriendly.

-- Cruel: To her enemies and those who have wronged her, Virisca is incredibly cruel and will not let anything stop her from inflicting pain upon any who oppose her.

-- Stubborn: Virisca is always right, even if she's wrong. There's absolutely no questioning that fact. You might lose a finger if you do question it.

Fears:
-- Loss of Vynikani's Blessing
-- Mass Rebellion
-- Being Proven Wrong
-- Making a Fool of Herself

Quirks:
-- Torturers prisoners and traitors herself instead of letting others handle it
-- Prays to Vynikani every day at sunhigh
-- Obsession with vodka
-- Like of music

Ideals:
-- Loyalty (mostly unquestioning)
-- Faith
-- Courage
-- Honor

Overall: Virisca fits her position very well. A weak, gentle personality could never command the power of Vynikani and Chaos. However, Virisca's strong and determined personality is the perfect match. She is a very courageous woman, hardly ever showing fear except when her rule is questioned. Virisca can be a humorous and mildly kind person among friends, but among enemies she is a terror to behold and none would ever want to meet her angry.

HISTORY

Family: Yamishan {Mother/missing}, Kazeni {Father/dead}
History:
Virisca was born to Yamishan, a lieutenant of Chaos and Kazeni, a follower. She was born in the Castle of Chaos and was destined for greatness from her very birth. The current leader, Yuuyami, took a liking to the black haired girl and Virisca lived her life as a child in the castle.

As Virisca turned 13, Yuuyami decided that Kazeni should train his daughter. A bit grudgingly, the follower accepted. He and Virisca had never been very close but he knew he couldn't refuse Yuuyami. As Virisca progressed through her battle training she proved herself an intelligent and fast leaner.

Over the three years Virisca spent as a initiate under Kazeni, father and daughter seemed to grow closer. When they were out patrolling in the Soumrak Cliffs, there was an ambush from the Land of Flame. Virisca and Kazeni fought but they were outnumbered, far outnumbered. Kazeni ordered his daughter to flee.

Sadly, she did so. She never saw Kazeni again after that. Virisca returned alone to the Throne of Chaotic Prowess and her mother and Yuuyami. She descended into depression for a spell of time. By this time, the black haired girl was sixteen and old enough to become a follower.

Yuuyami held the ceremony and Virisca became a follower. She was excited and eager to prove herself. She began to worship Vynikani almost as much as the seers and Yuuyami which did not fail to notice this. On the eve of her ceremony, Yamishan disappeared. The lieutenant left without a word to anyone.

She never returned and was never found. Virisca found she didn't care; she and her mother had hardly ever spoken. It was strange that she would leave you suddenly though. Shrugging it off, Virisca was visited by Yuuyami. The leader promised her a position of Lieutenant as soon as she turned 25.

Surprised and amazed, Virisca worked even harder to earn the favor of Vynikani and Yuuyami. The day she turned 25, Yuuyami held her promise and named the eager young Follower as the third Lieutenant.

Once she ascended to this rank of power, Virisca became power-hungry and arrogant. Her cruel and dark nature began to show through. Yuuyami revealed more of herself to her new lieutenant as well and Virisca realized that her empress was just as vain as she was. The two women became even closer. But Yuuyami was aging, already in her 50s and of failing strength.

Virisca was the youngest lieutenant, yet she took over most of Yuuyami's responsibilities when the empress receded to her quarters more and more often. Eventually, Yuuyami named Virisca as her successor. The empress was ailing in health by this time and a dark idea was beginning to form in the back of Virisca's mind.

When she was 29, she enacted this plan. She went alone to the room of Yuuyami, her empress and dear friend with a cup of poisoned tea. The empress drank it without question and passed slowly into a state of sleep before her breathing eventually ceased. Virisca slipped from the room, leaving the maids to find their empress hours later.

Thus, Virisca became Empress of Chaos.
