Appearance
Eris is a human woman of average height with a lean, athletic build shaped by hard labor and frequent escapes. Her close-cropped black hair emphasizes the sharp angles of her face, and her pale skin carries a faint dusting of freckles across her nose and cheeks. Her eyes are a striking sea-glass green, cool and analytical, always measuring exits, lies, and weaknesses. She wears a dark shirt, simple trousers, and a worn leather jacket with a frayed collar, the sort of practical clothes that look right in a holding cell or a back alley. Even at rest, she seems ready to move first and ask questions later.
Mannerisms
Eris speaks in a low, measured voice and rarely wastes words. She scans rooms before she sits, prefers to stand where she can see both doors, and absentmindedly taps two fingers against her wrist when thinking through an angle. When she is amused, the expression barely touches her mouth, but her eyes sharpen with interest.
Personality
Eris is composed, sharp-witted, and habitually skeptical. She likes clean plans, hidden exits, and honest results, even when she achieves them through dishonest means. She is not cold so much as disciplined, and she shows respect by taking people seriously, especially if they are clever enough to surprise her.
Ideals
Freedom. No institution, gang, or law should be able to claim ownership over a person’s choices. Eris steals, schemes, and smuggles because control is the only thing she believes is worth fighting for.
Bonds
She will not abandon the few people who once helped her disappear, especially the old fixer who first taught her how to turn paperwork, routes, and timing into survival. She keeps a hidden cache of cash, documents, and contacts tied to that old life, and losing it would feel like losing a part of herself.
Flaws
Eris assumes every lock has a weakness and every person has a price, which makes her brilliant at planning and terrible at trusting. She hates being cornered so much that she will sometimes escalate a problem just to create an opening. When someone challenges her competence, she can become cutting, dismissive, and reckless in proving them wrong.
Quirks
Background
Eris learned early that the world belonged to people who could see opportunity faster than other people could see danger. She started as a courier in crowded streets, moving small packages for larger criminals, then became the sort of thief who could slip through locked doors and crowded checkpoints with the same easy smile. Her intelligence made her valuable, but her instincts kept her alive. She was never the strongest in the room, never the loudest, but she was always the one who noticed the loose panel, the distracted guard, the paper trail no one else bothered to read. By the time she became a smuggler, Eris had built a reputation for impossible deliveries and clean getaways. She could turn a holding cell into a planning room, a dead end into a detour, and a bad deal into a profitable one. She trusts locks less than people, and people less than patterns, but she still remembers every favor owed and every betrayal paid back. What she wants most is not wealth for its own sake, but leverage, the kind that lets her protect her own freedom and decide who gets to move through the world without being crushed by it.
