"WENN DIE JAHRESZEIT DES VERGISSMEINNICHTS KOMMT"
ALIASES
her full name is ELRAINE FYURIN SOLFEGE, but everyone calls her RAINE in short. she insists you on calling her as such, because ELRAINE sounds too stuffy and LADY SOLFEGE sounds even stuffier.
AGE
she is already FIFTY-SEVEN, and despite her youthful looks she is beginning to exert the signs of aging.
GENDER
elraine is FEMALE, through and through. in the past perhaps she would have gotten away with cross-dressing, but it's not exactly a pleasant hobby she would like to partake in, and is very set in asserting her femininity to others.
RACE
HUEM
CLASS
NOBLE

APPEARANCE
having lost her right eye some time ago when beljur had waged battle against par'lia, raine is often seen wearing an eyepatch to cover her injured eye, which appears to be a dead, gray-white. not wanting to scare people with its disgusting appearance, she simply wears a pirate patch to veil this dis-figuration.
in addition, whenever she utilizes magic her eye would turn from a serene green to a livid blue when spell casting. it isn't really much of a perk aside from the fact that her blue eye signifies her utilizing her powers.
raine also appears to be a bit pale - given the fact that she doesn't go out in the sunshine too often and is always found shut inside her library, has given her a rather pale complexion that most people mistake her for being ill - which is completely not the case; most of the time, at least. her hair, which is pitch-black, contrasts greatly with her skin and makes her appear slightly frightful, if not, like a southern porcelain doll.
PERSONALITY-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
APTITUDE
• muse - known to harbor intricate and innovative designs, she lives up to her reputation as an architect as she continues to build and improve the world - all held in the palm of her mind.
• loyalty - she is known to stand by her loyalties to her allies and friends, thick and thin. her steadfast nature does not suggest she would easily give in to the whims of others.
• horror - anything that is remotely scary or has ghosts (because fuck, you can't kill a ghost alskfjsl;dfjs;dl) such as horror movies will bound to frighten elraine. she will suffer many sleepless nights just hearing a ghost story. nevertheless, ironically she is just as morbidly fascinated as she is, fearful of them.
• naivety - sometimes gullible (but she's getting better, she used to be worse off) to the point where she would almost believe anything and take everything literally, it's a natural flaw of hers that has resulted into more than one case of miscommunication with others.
• the king is alone - responsibilities are everything to her. if anything should ever go wrong, she feels the need to blame herself, and find a solution to the problem - by herself. the king does not need help from her subjects - the king is what the country needs, and the king will deliver. [/ul]

PRIMARY WEAPON[/size]
WEISSLÖWE ( broadsword ) - a large blue broadsword crafted out of blue stone. it has a pistol revolver chamber in the center, which acts as a medium for her to fire her condensed magical energy into projectiles similar to bullets, though elemental in nature. the sword is meant to be wielded with both hands - there is a second curved handle near the base of the sword for extra grip.
SECONDARY WEAPON[/size]
VERGISSMEINNICHT ( hairpin ) - the blue flower in her hair stores smaller hairpins which can be thrown as projectile needles/senbon. the leaves are also detachable, which are used as throwing spades. they are only used when she is unarmed or for last resort.

MISCELLANEOUS
Though extremely rare but not improbable, Elraine was born as an ARCHITECT - as well as an ELEMENTAL WIELDER with the innate element of WATER. Given that she is attuned with that particular element, she can only utilize water elemental techniques. Her weakness is LIGHTNING and WIND elementals.
HISTORY
Originally born and raised in BELJUR, Elraine used to be an obedient citizen in the luxurious capital until the city state fell into a corrupted ruin. Seeing no future for herself there anymore, she left the city with hopes to chase after a more adventurous dream.
Her journey took her through various perils - she lasted for a while traveling with a few caravans of adventurers who all had their own ambitions of creating their own kingdom. Yet, none of them were quality material to become a King or Queen - and their self-proclaimed "cities" were destroyed quickly by the passing veil of time. After parting ways with them, she decided to gather her own band of company, and wanted to try to see if she had any chance, at all, to create her own home. A place for her to be comfortable in - a place for her friends.
Discovering her talent as an ARCHITECT, she soon created the now-successful PARLIA, a gothic city filled with adventurers seeking a thrill from all over the place. Many foreigners and travelers would come to this city of guilds, where they would find work, get paid for their bounties, and moved on. Others stayed in the city to form their own crew or guild, and operated with their headquarters stationed in Parlia.
Unrest soon settled as many smaller, minor city-states began to spring up out of nowhere. The unease of having a potentially powerful, new enemy force conquering Parlia, combined with the bad blood that had developed between the city and Beljur, has caused a shifting dissent in the SOLFEGE family, who were then reigning as the nobles in Parlia. Soon, by this point, most of her retainers and trusted subjects had deserted her in favour for power from the other side - and she saw them off without retribution, simply sitting in her empty throne wondering what exactly had gone wrong.
Her son, who is to take on the Solfege name and inherit the throne, feels a constant distance from his mother, whom he feels pressured by the large burden she's placing on his shoulders. Elraine, who only wishes for the best for her son and a bright future, continues to persuade him to prepare himself better for the throne.
The restless days continue idly by.
