Personality : How to define my personality, hmmm...Well I can only think of one word. What you guys think about 'Awesome'!? What, no? That is not good enough? But I am awesome. What? That doesn't say anything about me? Ah come on! Really? You need an in-depth description? Okay okay..damn it...
So first things first. I do care about other people, but important things comes first and that will be ... me! Yeah you could say I do things as long as I can get the better of it. Nah I'm not that egocentric, I just have to take care of myself first, right? In the end you yourself will be the one you have to live with. Besides that, at the core, I just don't like people. They can't be trusted. I like it more when I'm all by myself, but that is something I keep for myself.
And you know what. I'm pretty good at getting what I want. I'm not afraid to do what I need to do to get what I want or what will be helpful in the future. I can be pretty deceptive if I need to be. I'm also in for some fun from time to time, you could say I'm a mischievous one. And curious, I have a great time finding out new stuff and love to explore things, when I'm not having my midday nap off course, you can't be too active, you gotta need some rest. I'm especially lazy in the day, because I'm more comfortable at night. That is mostly the time I do another hobby I'm found off: thievery. Hey don't judge me, I would only do that if business goes bad... or if you got stuff I really want to have .... you know like...shiny stuff...and such...
I'm not even that stupid, I'm not a rocket scientist, but I do am smart. You know, you won't say but I'm quite good at learning and I do know how to make use the situation. Well I love to have control on a situation. You could say I'm a very good actress and have a feel for what people yearn to.
So in one word, I'm just awesome.
History: You also need to learn about my history? Really? Why? It's not that interesting. ... I'm not going to get out of it? Ah well, might as well tell you something then...
All right...here we go. I grew up in a warm family, we didn't had a lot of money, especially compared to the other people in the town, and we always had to keep an eye on our expense. But we had enough to come by. We lived in a small but cosy house on the border of our village. My parents always loved me and tented to make sure I had everything I wished for. Therefore my dad worked hard, especially to make sure I could go to school.
School wasn't really my kind of thing, I got bored quite easily. But because my dad worked so hard to let me be able to go there I kept going.
You know, my dad was running a repair shop and I found it quite interesting work, so I wanted to help out and learn the trade. Not only because of that, but also to show my parents that girls could do this to. Silently my parents always wanted to have a boy to take of the trade later. Well this was also my chance to show them what I was worth. And I loved doing that work.
So I went to school and helped my dad after that. Some of the tasked was delivering the repaired goods to the owners. That was something I almost always took care of. When a good was repaired, my dad would tell me to bring it to its owner. My dad had kind of a strange mentality to let people decide what to pay for his work, 'cause helping people he found more important than money. I didn't quite understood that, people were greedy, especially in the town where I grew up in. Money was everything and they tend to make use of my parents. I still haven't figured out if my parents were just stupid or had too much faith in people. Anyways, that mentality was one of the biggest reasons why we didn't had a lot of money to go by. Also my mother volunteered a lot, helping a lot of other people. In that village I had totally learned the mentality of other people, the times we needed help they would just turn their back on us. And my parents just accepted that, saying that it was no problem and that we could just make the best of it.
Then my mom got pregnant again. And luck was totally at our side, she got twins... Even though I was only 13 years old at the time I knew that I could do something to at least help them out. Mostly because of my own mentality I decided to take the route of thievery and deception. You could mostly blame me grudge against the people in the village. It suited me and I had fun with it. A lot of fun. Good thing was that my parents were so busy with the newborns and work that they didn't paid any attention to me. And to explain the sudden source of income I would tell them that I had found a new job. Which was actually not a lie.
They months following were great. Mom and dad were more happy, less stressed and more healthy, while the newborns were healthy growing too. And I just had the greatest feeling that I was supporting my family.
Until one day...
I'm not sure what went wrong. Didn't I paid enough attention? Was I too cocky? Was it because I chose the daytime instead of night? I don't know. But the fact was that I was caught on one of my usual hauls. I didn't repent, the rich people just asked for it and I didn't had the feeling I really did anything wrong. They could just replace it. The only thing I regretted was the disappointment I saw on my parents faces when they found out. It was easier for me if they just got mad at me, just yell at me, but no, they gave me the silent treatment. Which stayed for weeks. Of course they made me work at the place they caught me to repay for my deeds, which was made me feel humiliated. Luckily I kept silent about the other things I had stolen. Otherwise I would probably had to work there too.
After that , in which I mostly isolated myself in my room or in the forest nearby, I had enough of it. I decided to go away, you know travel the globe, get jobs and earn money for my parents, the right way. I also couldn't really stay in that village again, I felt humiliated and in some way betrayed. I also really ruined my parents reputation which made them have an harder time at the shop. So it was time for me to go. I would totally miss them, my little bro and sis the most. Good thing they were too young to understand anything. I started making plans to archive my plan, even starting to get some lousy jobs around nearby towns to save up some money, good thing my reputation didn't had reached those places yet.
The time I became eighteen I decided to set out. Even though I was a huge source of problems for them, my parents didn't wanted me to go. They understood though, eventually. I wasn't going to come home until I could make them proud at me once again.They even gave me some of their savings. At first I couldn't accept it, but they didn't bunch.
For about a year and a half I travelled around taking all sort of small jobs to get by and learning stuff about all kind of things. Old habits don't stop that easily so I didn't stop thievery and deceiving. In a matter of fact it actually helped me a lot. I even found a partner. One day an homeless houndour puppy walked to me. He kept following me, don't know why though. So I eventually kept him. Named him Koto. 'Cause well...he is just a thing. An handy one though.
Eventually I learned about islandgroup Raccolto when I was around 19 and an half years old and decided to go there with the money I had gathered and saved up. The sea breeze seemed nice to me and I thought they would probably be in need of a repair shop. At Rapture Retreat I bought a crappy place where I could live and start my repair shop. It seemed to me as a perfect opportunity.
Got enough information now? Good, because if you want to know more you'll have to talk to me.
A few Cirque Festivals ago I ended up as a Gothorita. No that I dislike my Poochyena origins, but being a Gothorita felt good. Good enough to want to stay it a bit longer, maybe even permanent. For now.
Since a while now, I missed my Poochyena self. It just didn't felt right anymore. Being a Gothorita was fun, but my heart lies with my original totem. So obviously I used this year's Cirque to go back to who I were. I feel more complete now~
