Personality:

Diminutive in stature, Bastianna is not lacking in character. Everything about her is dramatized. Though she practices Santeria, she is not as devout or as powerful as she would have everyone believe. She wields her words and her powers as more of a shield than a weapon. Keeping herself as mysterious and dangerous seeming as possible without going into details, is what's allowed her family to flourish in this business for so long. She cloaks herself in the supernatural and makes even the non-believer's hesitant to mock it.

Bastianna knows how to keep a secret, her family has been doing it for centuries. Completely trustworthy unless crossed, she "buries" the secrets of her clients until they want them dug up or until she deems it appropriate to bring up the past.

Found: Won | Dropped
Date of Maxing:

Temper: Foreboding- (implying or seeming to imply that something bad is going to happen.)

Breed: Long Lost Family Member
Breed Appearance: Mini-corn and Nixie
Height: 7.1 hands
Personality:

The second youngest of the Casquette family, Sabine is the trader and the builder of the family. Most of their trade relations are through her as she seems the most innocous of the group. Two of her major traders are within the flock--Tessalime who trades for aromatic mean in exchange for dyes and region specific plants and Vanraulimore who supplies weaponry work in exchange for precious metals/gems amongst other things.

She's grouchy, loud, and often crass--which is why she is often used to create diversions. Because of her Nixie ability she also is the keeper of the underwater vaults. Sometimes she sees things in the water, in what her family calls "water waking".


She does not truly believe in her family's religion but rather in the strength of family. All-in-all, she's a foot soldier who is devoted to her family and their way of life. It doesn't bode well to cross her.In a very rare sentimental streak, she preserved the stone masonry rose her grandfather had made for their grandmother Agatha and placed it in Bastianna's room as a sign of love and devotion

Quirks/Character Traits:
✶Can communicate underwater and hold breathe for hours.
✶ Can haggle a zebra out of his stripes.
✶ Builds the mausoleums/does the masonry work most of which is inlaid with family blood to give them protection.

Lives in the partially sunken room of the masoleum. There is an alcove for her and her familiar to sleep with some actual room before a set of stairs led into the river-fed pond.

Backstory:

Second youngest of the Casquette family, she has finally made it to Bonaventure, Ville de Mort.
