Selena Arpin![]() "Even the brightest of minds can be swayed." Gender: Female Race: Human Ethnicity: Glace’omme de Nord Age: 21 Height: 1.73m Weight: 60kg Faith: None Occupation: Craftsman Residence: Has no fixed residence Physical Description: Selena is a beautiful woman. Her inquisitive blue eyes go well with her dark hair, and it is all tied together with her shapely body. In political and formal situations, she enjoys wearing dresses of exuberant colors that enhance her elegance, whereas in the field she can be seen wearing a fashionable, yet secure lightly plated armor. Personality: As is expected from her interests, Selena maintains a very dettached personality. As opposed to making blunt statements, she prefers to guide others in the direction where her thoughts are. While well-intentioned and warm-hearted, she still sets her eyes on her goals and understands that there are always ways to reach them. Incredibly polite, she portrays elegance and grace in events that allow her to do so and hardly loses composure. Relationships: - Perhaps some other Glace’ommes History: House Arpin of the Heart Caste has had a long legacy as a House of Note with prime non-combat transmuting, but it has yet to become the case that one of theirs is named Grand Foreman. Selena represented an incredible opportunity. Being identified as a prodigious transmuter since birth, her family chose to cultivate that talent and shape it into a powerful influence within the Heart Caste. To Selena though, while transmuting came to her naturally and she did her best with it, her true passion lied in the realm of politics. For one to become Grand Foreman, they must gather a collective support from the Heart Caste such that they are nominated. It was still a long time away from such events occurring given her age and experience, but in the realm of influence, one must start early. Educated on the political intricacies and arts of the Heart Caste, Selena has always found it to be the true challenge. Making use of magic to manipulate materials was far too easy for her mind. Manipulating the minds of others simply counting on your ability to read them? That was the true puzzle. Masquerades, banquets, parties, and more, those are her arenas. Her tools? Elegance, beauty, charisma, and a well-inserted slip of the tongue. It is far easier for one to believe you when they WANT to believe you. She has distaste for the battlefield. Minds are ignored, strategy is based around the “calculus of war”. The arts of persuasion and cunning are lost in such a brute environment. Plus, you get dirty. Yuck. Despite all she had going for her, things became tough. At certain times, No matter, how much respect one can build, it can all be thrown out the window by a curveball. After the war started, House Arpin stood on “the wrong side of history” as the other houses like to point out. Standing against the war was nearly political suicide within the Heart Caste, but the head of the House, her father, Renauld Arpin, stood adamant on his position, defending that the prosperity of the Glauce’omme in this new age could still be achieved through peaceful means and resources should be devoted for that cause. Attempting to gather the spread out opposition did not go unnoticed by the majority in favor of the war effort, and soon enough that lead to the consequences. Contracts, swept form under their feet. House Arpin was powerful, but it was still merely a part of the organism in the Heart Caste. Like any living organism, it tried to shed its impurities. House Arpin lost much say in affairs within the Heart Caste. The title of Grand Foreman belonging to their household now a distant dream, as protecting the legacy became priority. Still, one final blow. How can you crush a House and force it to fall in line? Simple. Take away its hope. In this case, Selena. The one being shaped from birth to become Grand Foreman was taken from her House and pointed towards the war effort. Perhaps the intention was that she could be killed by some Valerian soldier, perhaps it was simply to hold her father hostage to the whims of the war effort.
