Appearance
Lady
Elizana Octavina
Celamyrsa,
“I meet the Lady Celamyrsa today and was pleased to see the reports haven’t been exaggerated. When she entered the room I instantly saw that she stood about five feet and I would guess eight inches tall. Neither very tall, for a woman, and not one of those feminine midgets. She can look the shorter men in the eye and not have to crain her neck to look into tall men’s faces.
Speaking of her gaze, she has pretty eyes though I can’t determine if they are blue or grey. They look at the world with a almost wide eyes gaze. They are set well in her face which is very oval shape. Her lips are full without being huge, with white straight teeth in her mouth and she has a very petite nose. She keeps her brown hair clean and in a bun which frames her face well.
I wouldn’t say she is the most fashionable but her dress and hair style are nice without being extravagant. Though being from Ludren with its four seasons the coloring in her clothing is a bit more diversified.
I will say that I worry about her ability to have children as she has a slender young woman’s form and while it appears she has decent hip structure that can really be hard to determine as clothing can be flattering to a figure. Overall I find her to be an pretty young lady who can catch the Count’s eye but not so pretty that we will have a bunch of young idiots following her.”
~ Chamberlin Gregous Xenapor comments in his journal.

Personality
Elizana Octavina Celamyrsa,
Elizana is as complicated and contradictory as most people. On the surface she appears to be a very excited and eager person with a passion for drawing. The truth of her personality is much deeper than that. Elizana Celamyrsa was raised in a noble Lorien house and so nothing is ever what it truly appears. Elizana’s great strength and weakness is that she is who she is, and she likes herself. She can never hide that she is a pleasant person, but the years have taught her a bit about holding parts of herself in reserved.
If left to her own choice Elizana would greet all of her friends with a hug, and spend the next hour listening and talking about what is going on in their life, and with strangers she would want to make them friends soon after meeting them. Her life has taught her though that such openness can be dangerous especially in Lorien and among other nobles.
Elizana no longer instantly trust people, though she wants to. She is still a eager person and while she follows the social rules of her class in regard to behavior only just barely. She isn’t a reserved person, she is intelligent though, her true passion being archaeology, and the drawing of old things she sees.
Since her marriage and widow hood there has been a shift in her personality. She realized that despite it all she pawn in Lorien politics. There is an underlying fear for her that her new freedom will be stripped away from her and she will be forced into something worse.

History
Elizana Octavina Celamyrsa was born on the 1st of Glade in the year 96 during the Age of Steel. She was born to then Baron Octavian Celamyrsa and Nyvene (Alderset) Celamyrsa at the Dawn Palace in Skaven the Kingdom of Lorien. Less than an hour later her twin brother Vincent Alder Celamyrsa was born. The two were the eldest children of the Baron and Baroness and were also the oldest grandchildren of the Count Vincent Celamyrsa and Elizabeth Celamyrsa.
Despite being younger Vincent was the heir to their father and grandfather. Originally attempts were made to separate the two, but it was discovered to be easier for everyone involved if the two children were schooled together. Elizana and her brother were educated not only in the way of the Lorien Celebrant but the ways of the Celamyrsa House. By the time they were eight both could and in unison quote and answer any questions about their family history.
It was at that point Nyvene Celamyrsa insisted that their education be separate. They both were destined for different parts of Lorien society she said and so both must learn differently. She had an ally in her father in law Count Vincent. So the children were separated for lessons. Both of them suffered greatly from the separation, and their school work and even there health began to decline. Their grandfather insisted that they would get over it.
It was during this time that Elizana really began to discover her interest in history and old things. As her mother took her around the estate and insisted that she learn everything about it and its operations she was introduced to the antiques. Having always enjoyed the lessons about history previously she loved seeing object that had belonged to that time or people she had learned about.
It was also at this time she began to learn draw. It started with her drawing pictures of her brother that she was missing, and then her father who was semi band from spending time with her as he spoiled the child to much. Then she began to draw pictures of the objects around the place. She found it was relaxing and in a way for that moment could be with those she missed.
That isn’t to say the siblings never saw each other. Their father was cleaver and would find chances to bring the children with him on trips around the kingdom as he handled the families’ affairs. The two twins would relishes these trips and time together.
It was when they were 12 that their Grandfather passed away. Their Father became count and he lifted the ban on his children’s lessons. Lessons such as history, grammar, and math he said they could do together. For lessons specific to their futures they would continue in separate classes. Both children’s health began to improve, and there grands improved almost instantly.
Elizana had learned about magic and specifically semblance which allowed you to study people and things around you. The young woman wanted to learn but in Lorien you had to be careful about learning magic. Both of her parents were hesitant about the doing it. Not because of any distance for magic, but for fear of her surviving the threshold sickness. Eventually they agreed, but with the understanding it was to help the family. They contacted the Pact about having her awaken, quietly. Mages being the way they were many didn’t but a few were interested, so because they were willing to talk, and others for the money.
Elizana meet with a few and let them get to know her. Eventually a Madam Betinca agreed to initiate Elizana. The family still wanted to keep her abilities secret so they did the initiation under the pretense of a case of the flue. It was a struggle for Elizana but she made it through the threshold sickness. She joined the Pact so she could legally do magic, but wasn't very active and then began to expand her knowledge of semblance, and also picked up Scrivening. During this time Elizana also began work as an Archaeologist and began to make excavation around Skaven.
It was when she turned 20 years old that her parents informed her that they had made an arranged marriage with Count Horatio Tredramo. Elizana was shocked and upset when she was told and her brother was also upset. Their mother informed her that she would be doing it as it was the alliance the family needed. The count was old and had decided he wanted a heir. Elizana father approached her privately and said that if she did this he would make a deal that after the Count died she would be allowed to choose, within reason, her future.
Elizana agreed to the deal and married the Count. She soon discovered that he did have a heir in his nephew, who Elizana found to actually be fairly reasonable, but the Count age and the whispering of the Kindred had turned him extremely paranoid. Elizana didn’t conceive the hoped for heir, but that was due to the Counts own shortcomings. She also discovered that the Counts Chamberlin was also a voice in the Counts ear, and he had hoped to have a child on the counts seat so that he could control the child.
The Count died peacefully in his sleep and Elizana found herself free. Her only real act as Countess, as no one allowed her any authority before, was to support the nephew as he took Count’s seat. With the new counts support, friendship and with an intact alliance between their houses Elizana returned to her family and her promised freedom.

Arcane
Novice Semblance
Quirks
You know that’s a Fake right? - Apprentice Quirk
► Show Spoiler
Elizana semblance rune has alter her abilities as it has been affected by her love of archaeology and history. All things have an Aura, sentient beings have the largest with animals and objects have the smallest.
This quirk makes it so that she perceives the aura around objects as if it was twice as large as it would be for a normal Semblance caster. Which makes it easier to detect and read information about object.
On the reverse the aura around animals and bugs seems half the size it normally would. This makes it harder and requires more focus then normal.
An example would be if she walked into a room her semblance would be able to instant sense that there were a number of antiques in the room but wouldn’t be able to sense the litter of puppies sleeping in the corner. Her eyes and other senses might tell her that the dogs are there but unlike the antiques which she would know instantly were old thought not how old but with the puppies to get anything out of semblance she would have sit down and focus on a read of them.
Fellow sentient beings are unaffected in either direction. So her normal perceptions of emotions and such would continue the same as appropriate to her level.
Technique
Structure
► Show Spoiler
An aura will reveal to the observer the physical structure of something. In this way, a wizard can use it as a means of sensing the presence of other people or objects around them. However, their sight only extends so far. Clothing is easy to bypass, walls are more of a challenge.
Physical Properties
► Show Spoiler
By far the most straightforward of all aspects that can be gleaned from an aura are physical properties. Semblance allows the wizard to use their aether as a proxy for their senses. Taste, touch, smell, sight, sound are all possible avenues of study through the use of semblance.
Emotions
► Show Spoiler
Recognizing that emotions are present is one thing, identifying the nuance of more subtle emotions is something that requires time, focus and skill. Emotions that are strongly felt are very easy to identify as they present themselves at the forefront of a person’s aura. The more nuanced emotions tend to be more difficult to interpret and are easily concealed.
Echo
► Show Spoiler
Auras leave imprints upon the world around them. Semblance users can study these imprints to varying degrees of proficiency. A beginner might be able to recognize that a person just recently had a cup of tea with breakfast as the imprint is very recent. The flavor, smell and warmth of it might still cling to the individual who drank it. A master could stand in a house that had at one point completely burned down but had been rebuilt. They would be able to pick up on the echo of the fire’s heat, the smell of the smoke, perhaps even the emotions of people who were either trapped or present inside the building as it burned.
Magic
► Show Spoiler
Semblance users are able to study and observe the aether of that which they come into contact with on a very deep level. The longer they have to study something, the deeper they can delve into studying its aura and aether. In this way they can discern magical properties of that which is brought to their attention. The more complex and powerful the magic, the longer it takes to glean the details of it.
Alteration
► Show Spoiler
A semblance user has the power to mask or alter their own aura as it is perceived by others. This is a useful ability that can be used to fool others and mask their intentions or things about themselves as would be present in an aura.
Focus
► Show Spoiler
An aura can reveal what a living creature is focus on. Where their attention is directed can be revealed with careful study. A powerful wizard can follow this focus and even predict where it might shift.
