WoW Character Profile: Esrasti Veltruvith
The Basics βββ

Physical Appearance βββ
Hair: White - Very white, mid-back Facial Hair: N/A Eyes: Bright Gold Height: 6'9" Build: Leggy, Slender Distinguishing Marks: Her hands glow with arcane energy. It can be difficult to miss. If Esrasti can hide it, then it seems she chooses not to. Scars: N/A Tattoos: She has very subtle arcane markings across her arms, legs, and her torso. There is an iridescent sheen to them, though this seems mostly noticeable more when light passes over them. When utilising magic, her tattoos glow, similarly to her hands. Piercings: Esrasti has a multitude of piercings, though the majority of them follow the bottom edge of each ear. She also has an eye dermal on each side. Common Accessories: In the public eye, and quite presumably the private as well, Esrasti is always donning a moderately decorated and feathered mask that matches her choice in garb for the event / circumstance. She wears a plethora of jewellery, consisting of rings, bangles, armlets, earrings, ear cuffs, and more. Esrasti loves grand gestures and looking grand, so a good deal of her jewellery can lean towards gaudy. Likeness: Lena Headey
Personal Information βββ
Profession: Esrasti is a painter and has been for so many years of her life that nowadays she would consider that to be her only course available. In truth, before separated from the Highborne, Esrasti was a priestess to Elune and still acts as one, though has kept that largely a hidden secret. She also serves as an archivist and Shal'dorei representative to the Order of Eversong. Hobbies: She loves to order others around and delegate responsibility. A quiet, judgemental socialiser, she's had years of going to galas, though largely keeps that to her own people. She's also prone to people-watching, appreciating other works of visual art, tending to plants (for the sake of pigment collection), milling, drinking wine, shopping, and spending way too much coin. Languages: Shalassian, Orcish, Darnassian, Common Currently Living: The Veltruvith family has a comfortable estate right on the water on the outer perimeter of Suramar City. Birthplace: A comfortable estate within Zin-Azshari. Religion: Esrasti upholds Highborne / Kaldorei religious beliefs, though is centralised more around devotion to Elune. Fears: Spiders, rats, other creepy crawlies, artistic failure, being poor.
Personality/Description:
Esrasti carries herself with a lot of grace and refinement, a very regal bearing, and it's not difficult to see that she is a byproduct of the Highborne. She likes to look her best and puts a great deal of effort to showcase the best sides to her physical person picking garb that complements her very dark blue skin, sharp features, and the contrasting porcelain-white hair. It can be assumed that Esrasti very much judges others based on their appearance and how they choose to present themselves.
When public facing, she is always adorned with a mask, which some may interpret as a means of trying to hide something. In truth, Esrasti's mask is merely a means of distinguishing herself from her other people. It is her way of standing out and creating a memorable impression, along with some enigmatic intrigue.
She is very good with her words and knowing how to conduct a certain type of conversation in the company of certain types of people. That is to say, she can read the room and know precisely who and what she needs to be in order to be a part of said room. This does not necessarily mean that it accurate reflects whatever personal feelings she may have on a matter or on an individual. She has had thousands of years to hone this ability and now interacts with others largely on muscle memory.
Although a boon, this also means that these thousands of years of developing habits means that she is a hard woman to change or to persuade to see things in perspectives outside of her own.
Esrasti loves her people dearly and is very dedicated to the notion that the Highborne were superior. In many ways this has transferred over to the Nightborne. She, unfortunately, is very much inclined to look at other races and perceiving them to be beneath her. Despite this, she has enough sense not to express this sentiment.
She's not a cruel woman. At least, not intentionally so. A bit unabashed, Esrasti is often straight forward and, at times, lacks tact, though presents this aspect of herself under a direct portrayal of thoughts and ideas. It would be an accurate assessment to assume that she is not the most sensitive or sympathising person. She values wit and cunning banter, and enjoys intellectual conversation, especially when it involves artistic discussion.

She is much more inclined to either have no relationship (citing that she's too busy for one), or likely to treat her partners as pets.

RP Hooks βββ
Esrasti is old and comes from an equally old family of nobility. This is reflected in how she carries herself, how she thinks, how she treats others, and how she speaks.
Before she was separated from the Highborne, she served as a priestess to Elune. Perhaps you knew her from her days in devotion. Nowadays, she continues to pray to Elune, largely in secret. Even when her family pledged loyalty to Elisande, for the sake of her family, Esrasti was a vocal supporter of putting down the resistance. She did not, however, personally advocate for the this or the additional intervention of the Legion, regardless of how it may have appeared.
She has the ability to heal, mend, and provide other charitable services by way of magic and on the infrequent occasion has made use of this skill. Given that she is not a charitable person, however, she does not put in the efforts to tend to the needs of others often. Unless, of course, she gets something in return.
Her paintings are not what she would consider particularly famous outside of her people, but perhaps you've seen them before. They remain largely in an exhibit native to Suramar.
Although she is willing to grind down her own pigment and even enjoys doing so, she is less willing to go collecting it herself. She frequently posts advertisements to hire others to fetch her painting supplies for herβfor a more than adequate amount of coin.
In general, Esrasti is more likely to hire others to do things for her rather than to do them for herself. She is often hiring others for simple jobs.
Looking For βββ
Friends, enemies, former partners, especially those of Shal'dorei and Kaldorei people, resistance members she may have wronged, maybe people who felt like she didn't pay them enough for doing something for her, rivals (friendly or non), other socialites, other members of nobility, and so on.
I like making connections with other players and really want to build relationships with other characters. I believe in organic development and will roleplay pretty much anything on the spectrum from joyful, domestic bliss to tragedy and anguish to murder and other reprehensible things. (I am pretty not good at writing combat; sorry in advance!)
I love the exploration and the growth between characters and their dynamics, be it positive, negative, or in some grey place.
