fah sarika sathsilpsupa. cis female. she/her. presenting lady SURIN KACHAPRAI, thirty-year old earthbender and researcher from ba sing se. inquisitive yet obstinate, they find themself apprehensive to fire lord chaesanās reign. will this be their salvation or their undoing ?Ā
howdy !! iām mitzi (they/she) and iām v excited to be here with surin ^___^ havenāt been in rp for a hot minute and tumblrās new look is v much throwing me off so sorry in advance for any mistakes :[ anw!! everything important can be found on her about page but iāll include some more details and tidbits here too for funsies (+ convenience lol). if youād like to plot, then pls hit the like button and iāll drop by your dmās !!Ā
long story short: noble researcher from ba sing se conducting not-so-legal-or-permitted research on dragons and how to weaponise them for the earth kingdom :grimace:
backstory wise, sheās the bastard child of a minor house in ba sing se that specialises in research and allegedly espionage (if i have the dates right maybe they have connections with the dai li?). her biological father is the head of the house and her biological mother is someone sheās met only onceāresulting in the scar across her face.
when she was eleven, her biological mother tried to come back for her and things got out of hand resulting in a destroyed wing of the house, a missing person, and a kid with no recollection of what happened other than the literal mark it left on her.
nineteen years later and sheās more or less āoverā what happened, considering 1) she doesnāt even know what happened cos everyone just said it was an accident 2) sheās a bit too busy trying to uncover state secrets to even be curious about her own background lol!
has an awkward and tense rl with her family, feels obligated to carry out everything as instructed seeing as it was her father who got her her job in the first place (plus success in this specific task means thereās less of a focus on marriage). her loyalty to the earth kingdom (+ attitude towards chaesan) is v much influenced by them.
been in the fire nation for around 3 months now under the guise of doing research on *waves hands around* something vaguely ecology-related idkĀ
but her actual expertise is in social and environmental history so sheās a bit like š§ w the current task (even more so seeing who the new crown prince is). itās v intriguing nonetheless!
reports back to her father plus another senior researcher who havenāt proposed the findings (cos theyre still a wip lmao) to the royal family & co., so itās pretty unlikely that other earth kingdom nobles are aware of this
doesnāt necessarily have the mannerisms of a typical noble considering she barely attended any events beyond the ones she had no choice but to + was taught to remain somewhat unnoticeable and inconspicuous for various reasons. being from a minor family makes that a lot easier too.
good with books and information, alright with most people, absolute flop at earthbending aside from tricks for convenience and some defence rip
+ gets shit done, calm & easygoing disposition, fantastic at compartmentalising, meticulous in even the most trivial things, willing to risk certain things if that means she can carry out her task as needed
- loyal to a fault, stubborn when she doesnāt have to be, a bit of a poor communicator, not as efficient as she could be, prone to falling for the finer things in life as a means of stress relief (itās abt rituals yāknow)
as for potential plots... erm.... letās leave that for brainstorming <3
