HUGE, HUGE thanks and MAJOR props to @killjo-qartz for these incredibly perfect commissions of my MCs!!!!!!

Read on for character intros! Note: DOB is written in the calendar format for Amasi, so stay tuned for calendar and timeline info!

Nina Zafira

15 years old; she/her; lesbian; attention disorder.

DOB: 15th Day of the Third Desert Moon, 502 Adeni PST

Appearance: 5'2, pear-shaped. Copper skin, bright brown eyes; brown coily hair (recently dyed hazel streaks); round cheeks; full lips.

Personality: Leader–dominant, sometimes to the point of domineering; ambitious, extroverted. Deeply loyal and generous, but stubborn; not afraid of confrontation, and can sometimes unintentionally center herself or insert herself in situations. Creative.

Hobbies: Art (sketching, watercolors; also nail art and make-up art); dancing (can merengue and salsa with the best of them, but doesn’t believe in formal steps/learning); singing (being tone-deaf never stopped her from belting her favorite gaitas at the top of her lungs!).

Favorites: Orange/yellow/pink; pastel blues; passion fruit anything (juice, ice cream, mousse, candies); arepa with queso rayado.

Relationships: Constantly crushing on girls and flirting but never really goes anywhere with it; struggles with maintaining serious relationships, whether platonic or romantic, so her serious friendship with Adelaida is all she feels capable of at the moment.

Fears: Being abandoned by everyone she loves, or losing them and ending up alone; not being good enough (as a friend, mostly, but later on as a heroine as well); losing trust of those she loves; alligators and bugs/insects.

Self Expression: Fast talker, often jumps around in trains of thought; often interrupts others (not always conscious of this and often well-intentioned–trying to contribute to the conversation by completing someone’s thought or bringing up something she thinks is relevant/interesting). Confidence informs her posture, stride, body language. She is noticed/center of attention without even trying. Despite being normally high energy, she sometimes crashes with moments of low energy and struggles sometimes to acknowledge and communicate needs when she crashes.

Communication & Affection: Words > actions. Promises mean everything. But this is in tension with her love language (physical touch) - easy for her to express affection with physical touch, but expects words of affirmation even where she struggles to give them. Deep emotional commitment and showing real, emotional vulnerability is difficult. Kind of a double standard as she demands/expects openness and vulnerability from others. It comes down to how much/whether she can fully trust someone.

Morality: Truth and honesty above all but if someone she loves is in danger, all morality goes out the window. She’ll do whatever it takes, even teaming up with morally “bad” or questionable actors if it means protecting or saving her loved ones–especially Adelaida. Not willing to give up her own life to save the world if Adelaida wouldn’t be saved, but she’d sacrifice herself in a heartbeat to save Adelaida.

Adelaida Zafira

15 years old; she/her; bisexual; social anxiety.

DOB: 13th Day of the First Earth Moon, 502 PST

Appearance: 5'5, square, lanky build. Golden-brown skin, acne (bumps and some acne scars; dark brown eyes (glasses); thick, wavy black hair; sharp features.

Personality: Dreamer–impressionable, naïve, sensitive, empathetic, introverted, shy. Very selfless and accepting, but can be self-pitying. Part of her shyness comes from social anxiety, but she generally prefers to be in solitude, or at most, quiet company. Tendency to be manipulated by stronger personalities. Does not like and avoids confrontation at all costs. Difficulties in standing up for herself/others.

Hobbies: Gardening (also interested in how to use herbs for medicinal purposes); reading (always has a book in hand); animals (always trying to rescue or heal stray injured animals; spends a lot of time learning how to care for animals; feels an affinity around them).

Favorites: Shades of brown; dark/navy blues; chupe (chicken broth-based soup with potatoes, corn); sucker for dark chocolate.

Relationships: Doesn’t always recognize friendships/others’ efforts at being friends. Not comfortable with physical touch (not from trauma or phobia; just more comfortable with space); needs time and trust to feel comfortable (Nina struggled to understand this at first). Doesn’t really crush on people; when she falls, she’ll fall hard.

Fears: Failure; hurting her loved ones; disappointing people; public speaking (panic attack-levels). Self Expression: Good posture, but dresses in muted tones and simply so as to not draw attention to herself. Movement is almost feline - quiet, but elegant. Speaks little, slowly/carefully, except around those she trusts, around whom she lets go more, talks a little faster and a little more, is a little more assertive and confident.

Communication & Affection: Actions > words. Expresses affection through acts of service and feels appreciated by receiving acts of service. Struggles to express emotions/affection with words. Struggles with vulnerability, but sees it differently (rather than vulnerability being showing emotion, she sees it as letting someone see her in her most comfortable self–i.e., when she’s reading alone!).

Morality: Strong moral code - ends cannot justify the means. She can be manipulated with threats against those she loves, and she will gladly sacrifice herself for them, or for the good of the entire world, but she won’t act in a way she believes is immoral even if it seems like the only way. She will always look for another way.
