Personal history

Eva was born in the Norhtern Paxitari villiage of Hallen, at the far eastern reaches of the Eternal Floating Mountains of Krish. Her community was very isolated but her family was even more isolated - living on the outskirts of her town. She doesn't remember her father as he left when she was very young. She was raised by her grandma (who she was named after and who was highly religious) and her mom, who was a rebel and outcast from the community ever since she tried to convince her small town that bonding felines should be normalized among the Paxitari. Her mother became a drunkard after being outcast and wasn't much of a mother. Her grandmother became her primary caregiver for the first part of her life.
 
Since her father wasn't in the picture, her grandmother put her to work at a very young age to help pay the bills (since her mom was basically good for nothing except drinking and staring out the window). Every day she would go scavenging for the best herbs, flowers, plants, and berries to sell at the market. She often had to travel long distances to find the variety she needed to earn enough wages to cover the cost of living. Her grandma made accessories from wood, rocks, and plants to sell at the market as well. Eva quickly picked up on this trade and looked up to her grandma a lot. Her grandma taught her about nature and about Sye and Su. Eva internalized these teachings to her core. One of the best things she ever received from her grandma was a bar-headed goose named Susan (named after the God Su). The goose was a reject from the mail carrying service. Her goose helped Eva scavenge and carry small packages for her. But, more importantly, he was Eva's best friend.
 
At the age of 10, Eva lost her Grandma to a strange disease that took her life rapidly. Eva tried to find the right concoction of plants and herbs that could save her, but to no avail. One week later, she woke up and her mom was gone. All that was left was a few empty bottles of alcohol.
 
She continued to live in the house for a few months. She turned to thievery to help pay for food to feed herself. Eventually, she was caught and the house was taken away from her. The village authorities asked other families in town if they wanted her. No one wanted the daughter of the strange drunkard who wanted to break tradition by bonding a feline. So she was left to survive on her own.
 
For the last decade or so she has wandered the northern lands with her goose surviving off of the food that she scavenged. She has grown hardened, awkward, and finds it difficult to trust anyone. She is trying to grow closer to Sye and Su and to her grandmother's spirit to find some meaning to her life.
 
Since she has lived off the land for the majority of her life, she has a strong connection to nature and living things. She has decided to leave the northern mountains to explore more of the nature the world has to offer. Also, begrudgingly, since Sye and Su believe strongly in fertility, she believes it is her duty to find a mate so that she can bear children.

Education

Her Grandmother, Evalyn, taught her everything she knows about the local fauna and flora of the northern lands. She also taught her how to craft with natural materials.

Failures & Embarrassments

Her mom was super embarrassing to her since she was a drunkard and basically the town crazy lady. She has failed many times trying to make food in nature. There was that one time with the shrooms...

Mental Trauma

Being raised with no father, her mother was a drunkard who left her, the only person that seemed to love her died, and no one else wanted her so she was left alone to wander the lands. Yeah, she has some trust issues. A whole heap of self-worth issues.

Very smart when in comes to the land. Not smart when it comes to people skills. She learns best with hands-on activities. Her literacy is very very low. She can write but has terrible hand-writing and even worse spelling.

She believes in the Gods Sye and Su. She believes it is her calling to protect nature and living things. She believes the earth has given all and so the people must respect it and give back to it.
