[b]Small disclaimer: all spells, magics and rituals Simura performs as a character are fictional and only loosely based on real-life witchcraft. Take it all with a pinch of salt!! [/b]

[h1]Looks[/h1]

Simura is on the smaller size length-wise and carries some curves and a healthy weight. Her facial features are very feminine and smooth, with the centerpiece being her piercing mint green eyes. Framing her face are waves of light brown, edging on dark blonde, half-long hair. Most of the time it’s kept loose under her hat, though occasionally she will put it up in a ponytail or braid to keep the hair out of her face. In the center of her visage, her lips are almost perpetually parted in a dazzling, carefree smile.

Though barely visible, Simmy sports a prosthetic leg. Her right leg had to be amputated from the knee down after an accident, but her prosthetic is often covered up by robes or pants.

Often dressed in earthy, green tones, she occasionally switches it up with a deep, dark purple - the royal colors of her region. Her usual attire consists of robes and a witches’ hat, though since arriving in Cerynia she frequently switches it up with more modern, casual outfits. In general, she is quite stylish. With every outfit,though, her neck always remains embellished by an amulet with a clear amethyst that shimmers in the sunlight. Her ears, wrist, neck and any other possible place are adorned by numerous trinkets and jewelry, all intricate and slightly odd.

[h1]Personality[/h1]


Simura embodies an eccentric and happy-go-lucky persona. Having experienced a somewhat sheltered youth, she carries an innocence and naivety about the broader world. Despite her kind-hearted and good-spirited nature, Simura often overlooks the gravity of certain situations, remaining somewhat detached from the harsh realities of the world. Growing up with an abundance of money, she displays a hint of spoiled behavior, evident in her carefree spending habits. Nonetheless, Simura, who prefers to go by Simmy, captivates with her endless charm and magnetic personality. Her talkative nature, combined with an insatiable curiosity, makes her a chatterbox, peppering conversations with countless questions. Always adorned with a smile, she finds joy in life's simple pleasures and maintains a strong connection with nature and her surroundings. Proficient in the arcane, Simura possesses a deep spiritual connection.

Beyond her individuality, Simura thrives in social settings, embracing her extroverted nature. Social anxiety is a foreign concept to her; she finds comfort and joy in the company of others. Ever ready to offer a helping hand or a listening ear, Simura remains unflustered by most situations, rarely succumbing to anger or offense. This composure is, in part, due to the emotional walls she has erected, shielding herself from more complex and profound emotions. For when difficult situations arise, Simura is prone to turn a blind eye. She can be quite avoidant and often prefers to simply not know or get involved, despite knowing better. On the rare occasions she does lose her temper, she can have a real mean streak to her.

[h1] History [/h1]
[h2] OOC[/h2]
Simura was born the second child of Venyra and Asger, and became known to the land as the new princess of Aetryske. Her older sister, Shiketh carried the burden of being the crown princess, so Simura spent her earlier years without much of a care in the world. The royal family’s castle was situated close to a town, but was surrounded by wildwoods. A small court lived there, but mostly, it was quite lonesome. As such, she grew up sheltered, spending most of her time with her older sister and out in the forest. Her deep love for pokémon, nature, and the world finds its origin here. From a young age, she excelled in the arcane her family was well known for.

Still, it was quite lonesome to grow up the way she did. For a social butterfly as Simura proved to be, she deeply missed the social connections. Her parents were on the older side, and she differed 10 years from her sister, who was often caught up in preparations to one day take over the kingdom. Simmy loved her sister deeply, as she always attempted to make free some time for her. Unfortunately, that was rarely possible.

Sensing that she was growing ever unhappier, her parents tentatively allowed Simura to get a pen pall. Figuring it was a relatively safe way for their daughter to engage with her evident love for foreign countries, and give her the social interaction she so desired.This is how Simura got into contact with Shaelyn. From a very young age, the two shared everything in letters they sent to one another, without ever meeting.  

As she grew older, Simura started to gain more responsibilities.Something she absolutely despised. Simmy wasn’t quite keen on growing up, and was more than happy to leave any and all responsibilities to her sister. Unsurprisingly, this put a lot of strain on Shiketh. One day,they had a fight about it, as sisters do. This fight, though, was a particularly nasty one. For a week or two, the sisters did not speak. 

This would take a turn, however, when on a faithfull day, Shiketh suddenly grew very ill. Baffling all doctors and even her mother, skilled in the art of healing, the crown princess was not getting better. No cure seemed to help, and as the months passed she grew weaker and weaker. Their fight quickly forgotten, Simura refused to leave her sisters’ side, up until the very end. A few days after Simura turned 18, Shiketh passed away. Suddenly, Simura was not only an only child, but also the new crown princess.

Shrouded in grief, she was suddenly flooded with new expectations and responsibilities. Now the only daughter and heir, her parents grew even more controlling and protective. The free spirited Simura struggled with this greatly, feeling restricted by her parents’ reign and this newfound expectation. She never wanted to be a heir, let alone rule a kingdom. Her dream had always been to travel the world. 

On a fateful day, at 20 years old, she’d grown tired of it all. In a desperate attempt to escape, she fled the castle into the forest. Misfortune befell her, when she traversed the woods during a particularly bad storm. A tree fell, and badly injured Simura. It took several hours before she was found, at which point she had lost a lot of blood and was growing hypothermiac. In great distress, her parents called upon the best surgeon they knew of. Viktor Vektor managed to save most of her legs, and also her life. 

The recovery took more than a year, in which her parents kept an awful close eye on her. Going so far as to hire another personal guard for her, who she initially came to know as Dakota. Though their relationship was a bit rocky at first (Sim wasn't very happy to give up her privacy and freedom), they eventually grew quite close. Perhaps[i] too[/i] close. In their forced proximity, a spark ignited and though they had to keep it very secret, their professional relationship grew into a more personal one. 

Eventually, though, Sim managed to make a full recovery. The prosthetic on her right leg was left as a permanent reminder.  At 22 years of age, Simura was back to her almost regular self, [i]physically[/i]. Meaning that Dakota's job was over. It was at this time that he left to go back to Cerynia, and confessed that his real name was Cody. 

Sim was left alone again. And what was worse, she was quickly expected to go back to her duties as crown princess. After the shock of a near death experience and falling in love for the first time, Simura decided that it was enough. After yeasr of begging to participate in the Royal exchange programme in Cerynia, she came with an ultimatum: either her parents gave her permission, or they didn’t - she’d go regardless. Sensing that they might lose their only remaining daughter, Venyra and Asgar finally relented and allowed her to go - but only under strict supervision of an assigned bodyguard. Simura did not like this one bit, but eventually agreed. 

At 23, she left for Cerynia, where she started studying and  opened her own shop, [i]The silver kettle[/i], right in front of Viktor's clinic.
