Equipment

Marquisate Dueling Dagger Wear: 0/2 Value: 5 Load: 0 Ranges: Intimate, Close Weapon Skill Tags: Disarm, Parry Special: +Quick -Incriminating

This is a high-quality curved, single-edged dagger. The back edge of the blade is thick and solid for parrying, with a notched cut-out for catching an opponent's weapon. The designs and markings on the hilt and pommel make it clear that it is a Marquisate officer's weapon: this was stolen from Captain Malthus and given as a gift to Vix by her old thieving partner, Luna.

Multitool Bangle Wear: 0/2 Value: 3 Load: 1 Special: +Hidden +Thief's Kit -Weighty

To casual eyes this appears to be nothing but an ornamental bangle or bracer -- made from steel with a shaped pattern and a few pretty inlaid stones, but nothing particularly fancy or expensive. It's actually a sophisticated gadget which can be manipulated to extrude different small picks and tools, and unlocked to extract and use others.

History

Victory, by preference known as "Vix", is a fast-talking and flirtatious Fox Thief. When she is not actively engaged in infiltrating a secure position -- that is to say, once she's been rumbled, or when she is interacting with people at her ease -- she dresses flamboyantly in colorful clothes, although in her current circumstances her wardrobe is long past its best state of repair. Her most prized accessory is a blue-and-green stripy scarf, rather newer than the rest because it was stolen from a humorless Eyrie magistrate.

As a young kit Vix grew up in Clockton until her adolescence, when she fell in with a group of young ne'er-do-wells, some of which were sons and daughters of privileged citizens and Marquisate officers. Dearest to Vix was the feline thief Luna, the daughter of a prominent Marquisate Captain named Malthus. Vix and Luna staged a series of ever more daring crimes in Clockton until Malthus himself became obsessed with tracking down the daring mystery thieves. When a patrol under Malthus' command finally cornered them during an inevitably botched job, Luna seemingly attempted to betray Vix to save herself -- Vix barely managed to slip the trap, but she has never been able to forgive Luna in the few times since that their paths have crossed. Malthus, on the other hand, has never truly given up his pursuit of Vix, as he blames her for "corrupting" his daughter. Vix's father Renard is a widower and a foreman in the workshop of a prominent Clockton engineer. Authorities occasionally keep tabs on Renny, watching out for any contact from Vix.

Since then, while Vix has not stinted at many jobs that could keep her fed, if not comfortable, she always feels a little extra motivated to strike at the Marquisate. She's not hugely inclined to any of the major factions, but is a lot of ways is more inclined to those that aim to overthrow the more authoritarian groups. Some of her feats have gained the notice and approval of sympathizers and operatives of the Woodland Alliance, and the place that she now feels most confortable calling home is the Reaches where Vix's aunt Sunny has a small farm.
