IN SUMMARY:

raised in a place where time seemed to still, a shrine-home in a mountainside with her mother - a priestess, an intercessor for gods & spirits - with occasional visits from her father, the then-emperor’s most trusted general. given the isolation, life is the fairytale she makes it, a collection of singing with birds & talking w spirits she believes live under their home. visitors who come to make offerings to the gods often bring trinkets for her as well bc she’s So Lovely And Fair, and we call that the beginning of a gossamer god complex. around 8/9 things start to go weird, and end with her memory of being swept down the mountain in a flood, carried away from her home.

or that’s what she remembers. decades later, she receives a gift of a collection of folktales and mythologies which includes that of a story about a shaman, an emperor’s warrior, and a little girl who drowns in the flooding of a mountain’s river. so who knows really if she’s been deluding herself from the start :)

there are some hints in her app as to what really happened, but !

[ redacted time period bc i’m waiting for tyrian to be picked up heheh ]

travels as a young woman performing traditional dances her mother instructed her in as a child to pass the time. there’s always been elements of consuming love and imminent danger in her life, so i like to think there are folk songs and a few minor mythologies inspired by her + her travels

gets turned at 27 by sayoko, a researcher & collector for firefly. she’s more in love than she’s ever been. sayoko is responsible for her turning, and they get one (1) lovely night hokuei before her beloved’s body and head are irreparably separated. decides she’ll continue to swear herself to firefly in honour of her dead & dear darling.

introduces herself to society with an unintentional (?) Bang. in the middle of her performance a previous lover flung himself on stage to kill her. the man currently hooked on her also jumps up to protect her. they brawled on stage and yena... kept dancing. almost as if it was intentional. the performance ends perfectly, with two corpses at her feet, and the audience goes Wild while she sobs over their bodies

mononymously known as yena on the island, a somewhat high-ranking House Bitch for firefly since she’s not smart enough to be doing mad science (generally this means being an emissary/liaison). certainly considered a National Treasure to the vampires given the general appeal of her blood combined w performance, but those outside hokuei likely don’t know or care about her

inherently self-serving because she needs to protect herself in a v literal way. currently realizing she needs/wants more than tenuous-at-best safety and cushy living. dream girl and unreliable narrator. what’s the difference between romanticization, bullshit, and lies ?? we’re gonna find out

𝚂𝚄𝙼𝙼𝙰𝚁𝚈  ↷

➸ originally meera arya was born in 996 AD whilst humans started radically procreated to make up for numbers being lost during the last-ditch vamp attacks right before the infamous human-vampire accords;

➸ sagittarius-capricorn cusp, i apologise;

➸ youngest child out of 7 siblings — 6 brothers, 1 (second eldest) sister. grew up in super traditional (read: inherently sexist) society led by traditional gender roles. said fuck it, ran away, obsessed with vampires;

➸ journeyed to hokuei by pulling some wily shit, introduced themself as rina, because it’s about the symbolism, y’all~;

➸ traded blood for info whilst human in hokuei for a buncha years for information, but vamps can lie to overambitious, nosy human. some chose to be charmed, and one of them a lone-wolf vamp she befriended (calypso! NPC your must can know) & made family out of eventually;

➸ started coaxing to be turned around 26, they managed to convince callie around 28;

➸ an impure vamp at first, rina (who thrives on being the most type A boss bitch around) didn’t expect the bloodlust to hit so hard, but she kinda went on a killing spree & got bestie executed;

➸ rina had been taking spider lily venom throughout the human years in hokuei (because she is not an idiot, i swear) and had a natural tolerance to it and managed to survive the attack for long enough to escape to house of firefly;

➸ pledged allegiance, and let them study them as an anomaly who survived (technically, she was worse for wear & weak enough that she may as well have been dead) such a lethal dose of concentrated poison, for a couple of years until they had the moon decanter;

➸ there was a long time spent in the hospital being hooked up to machine till it was time for the ritual, & converted to pure blood vampire from moon decanter circa 1030 AD.

➸ decided to never be weak again, devoted themself to research & perfecting resurrection & unravelling the mysteries of vamp biology;

➸ is ok with being dying, immortality is overrated and she thinks she would get real fucking bored, but not okay with it happening until she outshines jade scholar’s legacy???;

➸ likes to intimidate and pretend she doesn’t have a heart, but she is super passionate & attentive & considerate but also a manipulate snake scientist. loves bitter blood in sweet wine, pretentious instrumental music, would rather suck your vamp blood than any dicks~ eternally down for an interesting conversation, but might steal your DNA to study. oops?
