3– Wyx is an empath; she feels other people’s emotions as her own. Growing up in a tiny village that when one person was affected by something, the whole village was, was really difficult for her. She often had severe sensory overloads her older brother had to calm her down for. Upon moving to Vesuvia, however, she got a suppress magic charm tattooed into the back of her neck (in a private roleplay with a friend it done by Wyx’s housemate, Suny, but it was probably performed by Asra in any other setting) that allows her to know how other people are feeling, but it’s more of an aura instead of it overwhelming her own emotions.

4– It would probably be the Fool; Wyx is a naive disaster who just just stumbling blindly on her intuition. Because of her empathic abilities, she often carelessly and completely trusts people. If they are hostile to her, she will notice right away the change in attitude. Granted, this means she ends up surrounded by people who are of good will and good intentions but may be toxic in the long run.

9– Ravenclaw. Wyx is very curious about a lot of things, since Vesuvian culture is vastly different from the culture she grew up with. She’s kind of a devil’s advocate, too, and is always trying to find the truth in everyone’s perspectives.

11– Wyx is so sick of Asra leaving. Wyx is also sick of all the barely-there emotions that Asra puts off– she knows they’re there, she can feel each one bubbling beneath the surface, but he refuses to address any of them. On one hand, she hopes he leaves and never comes back. But another part of her, a larger part of her, is already so deeply attached that it’s more like; ‘Damn it, he’d better come back, otherwise I’m going to find him and kill him.’ She absolutely adores the art of tarot, again a thing that is wildly different from her more druidic village and the very arcane Vesuvia, and would have loved to practice with it had she not been disturbed that night.

12– Nadia scared her. Actually, Nadia still scares Wyx, but she’s learning to play her ‘game’. Nadia arrived to Wyx in such a state of distress that Wyx, being the absurdly compassionate person she is, wanted to help. But Nadia was feeling such deep-rooted negative emotions that night it almost overwhelmed Wyx– a thing that hadn’t happened since the Charm was placed on her neck– and Wyx was genuinely terrified of entering the palace gates and getting wrapped up in whatever the Countess was needing her for.

13– Wyx, with her empathic abilities, adores animals. She has for a long time. Growing up in an isolated farming village, she made quick friends with most of the livestock because ‘their lives are simpler’. Wyx likes Mercedes and Melachoir (i don’t think that’s spelled right????) but is wary of them– she is fully aware they are trained guard dogs. The eels though? She knows they’re suffering and it makes her so uncomfortable.

15– Wyx likes the arid hotness of deserts but also loves storms. The biggest determiner for how comfortable she is in a weather is whether or not she can wear clothes without getting uncomfortable or not wear clothes without freezing to death.

17– Wyx has accumulated a variety of… things? Just, like, things. Typically bottles, stuff she can put her other things in– like nice rocks, dried flowers, ground herbs. Wyx is one of those who just sort of picks up things and takes them home. She professionally collects star charts and books on the planets and their influence (astrology with an ‘L’, not astronomy. She couldn’t handle the vastness of space honestly).

19– At first sign of conflict, she scoffs. She bites off more than she can chew, in most cases, letting her mouth do the talking, not her brain. She is very emotional, so when she gets too deep into it, she typically runs away to cool down, or just cries until they let her leave (she hates doing this, though. It’s embarrassing.) When faced with a problem she can’t flee or cry her way out of (like long-term issues, like being more or less forced to find an alleged murderer who is actually really nice???), she is in the worst state: sulking, brooding, a lot of thinking, overthinking, more crying, especially with things that have potentially world-altering consequences.
