Character 100-ish 042: Eti the Younger
Mar. 2nd, 2014 10:15 pmI seem to get most of these things happening when there's cricket to watch. YEAH CRICKET.

Original reference photo was a much more 'YAY!' kind of child's face, but since I still have problems with kids, and with YAY! faces, sticking the two together at this stage... didn't work. So she's more reserved now.
NAME Eti
WHO IS THIS PERSON Second daughter of Thiras, the token Tsaythi
GENDER Female
AGE Five
BRIEF BIO Eti--and Thiras--don't know who her father is, only that he's obviously Kazinian, with the green eyes and the slight strawberry tinge to her hair, and much paler skin than the average Tsaythi. Thiras has never sat down with her and said 'you're a bastard; this is what that means in our society' or anything like that, rather she's gradually taught her through telling stories of her own life.
She's dealt with the same sort of prejudices as all bastard children do in Tsayth, but part of her mother's lessons have taught her how to respond--or not respond--to certain tauntings.
She hasn't started learning Thiras' arts of wind witchery yet, and won't for several years. Tricky business, wind.
CHARACTER Happy, excited, very precocious, 100% Thiras' child. She isn't at all afraid to speak her mind, to strangers or those she knows, and loudly defends her mother whenever anyone speaks against her. She asks lots of questions, especially the sorts of offensive questions only a five-year-old could get away with, and generally comes across as a very intelligent child.
POINTS OF INTEREST
Eti is named after Thiras' mother, hence 'the younger'.
Eti loves chickens. Thiras keeps three chickens and Eti loves to pick up their eggs, and chase them when Thiras isn't watching.
She also likes collecting sea shells, a habit both Mum and Nanna have picked up from her.
