Character:Alyssa
Alyssa is a young, and fairly obviously affluent, woman although a close eye may suggest that her youth was a hard one. She takes care to present herself well, although she is at most pretty rather than beautiful. Her eyes do not reflect youth or naivete, but rather hardened calculation. Although usually she speaks with a Port Calin accent, and one that suggests a high birth, she occasionally slips and reveals a Great Forks accent.
It is not Alyssa's habit to discuss her past or her resources, but she owns a modest estate on the fringes of Port Calin's influence. It is an ill-kept secret that the estate is built around an Air-aspected Manse.
