~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Name: Averia* Luelli
*prefers to be called Veria
Age: 41 years (human -> 27)
Gender: female
Species: bird demon
Height: 168 cm
Job: tailor and owner of the cloth shop
Weapon: Staff of the Forgotten Wind - increases power of wind spells. Averia has also a dagger but it mostly acts decorative.

Abilities - Averia is mainly a wind mage but sometimes uses weak water spells. Her psychical abilities are rather weak - she uses a dagger only when she doesn't have other option to fight:
- Flight - she has wings and she's able to fly
- Wings-hiding illusion - only for 'beauty' purposes or trolling - she likes to hit people with invisible wings, especially when she's angry. Veria sometimes hid them, to not cover the shop display.
- Breeze - spell which increased speed of the caster and picked by her allies.
- Blowing shield - shield looking like, flowing around the person covered by it, wind. It knocks back everyone without high magical defense and disable to get closer.
- Windy edge - quick and strong blow of wind, which is able to cut like a sword. It's possible to see this attack (as a waving air) but harder to avoid due it's speed.
- Steam ash - cast with flapping, makes the ash rise and together with steam (from spell) creates something like a smokescreen.

Birthplace: Town in Ganbaata Tundra (she doesn't tell it's name to anyone, because it doesn't matter)
Current residence: Tahir

History:
Family life
Averia was raised in rather poor arean family with a lot of siblings...to be specific - brothers. Due to various problems (with food, for example), her parents decided to give her under her grandma's protection, who agreed to keep an eye on the only one girl, who could she teach her profession...
Her close family wasn't connected with sewing or crafting things, more likely with merchandise or war art (as they had to fight against others to live). This was boring for a little girl, so she was grateful as she started learning sewing in grandma's household. She also learned how to play piano then.
She was living peaceful with her grandma and learning all the old tailor's secrets (and sometimes visiting her family) for a long time. Meanwhile she was sent to the school and finished it... but then... She was told to come back home then but she refused. She knew that her family will force her to come back, so instead of staying in grandma's house, she left it, promising she'll be back someday.
She knew the traveler mage, Jeida, before and she decided to join him in the journey. They were visiting a lot of wonderful places, not caring about anything. She asked Jaida to teach her a bit of magic.

A birth of the dream
The time passed by and she was better and better in casting magic. Her favorite became wind magic and she only learned it. After a few years, she was getting bored of traveling...
...And then the Moon prison was taken away... It meant the end of peaceful days as the fractions fought again. One time, when they were travelling, Averia saw areans fighting against caelian flight division. She looked at winged, beautiful, enemy troops with amazement. It made her want to fight too. In a army against the true enemies, not drunkards in taverns. Against...someone. But who - she haven't got idea then.

Shop and sewing
.Veria decided to interrupt her journey and go back to grandma's house stay there for a little. She worked in a shop as a tailor for a year and...terrible thing happened - her grandma has died. Averia's grandma before a death wrote down in her last will that Veria is going to inherit her shop as she knew what to do. In the last will was also written the story of her predecessors, who were from Caelius and was send to Ares.

Changing sides
Girl was grateful for this gift but she decided to move it...to Caelius. She had enough of living in the dark Ares. What's more - she haven't got any friends in Ares except Jeida...and a lot of enemies, so she had no grudge, while she had left. She has settled down in Tahir and has open new shop. It was prospering good and original style of clothes, other than in this part of Zion was desired by customers, so she got a renown quickly. Also she got a friends there.
However she missed her 'days of freedom' and from a bit of greed she has joined Dairiel's adventure team, because the young half-dragon promised her a lot of treasures. She pulled Jaida into it. It was a little before the end of this team, so she wasn't there too long. After team's dismiss, she came back to her beloved work as tailor.

Joining the war
.But when her business started to be worse than usual due to war and accidents with a rift monsters, she decided to follow her almost forgotten dream and join the army... She knew that she could fight against those, she met before but she didn't care as long as she can fly in sky division and protect her business. She couldn't stay peaceful anymore. Not when... Dairiel's adventure team came back to life again. Not when so many things happens!

Personality:
Oh, my, my *jumps* Dear Helia, your clothes are awesome. *with silent and envious voice* Could you tell me where did you get it?
She loves fine clothes but as a tailor she's envy, when someone has great clothes done by someone else.

You can watch me, you can praise me...but not touch me and anything there!
She loves to be praised as she was lacking of this in her childhood and she don't like if someone touches her (bad experiences from the past) or her things (because you can get it dirty or worse - destroy!).

I need no friends, only business partners. Trusted business partners.
She may say so but she has a few trusted friends. She won't trust someone from the start but also she won't hate anyone from the start. Everything needs a time.

No need to thank me... I'm just doin' my job...
Even if she likes to be praises, she doesn't like to be thanked unnecessary.

It's not like I don't believe in gods... I highly respect them but still...we must have the last word in our lives' case
She doesn't treat gods as godly beings. In her meaning they're just a someone more powerful than others. It's maybe caused by the fact that they did nothing, when her family was really in poor state...
