Mental Trauma
Having a hard time learning that not only does she wield a crystal related to The Flower Goddess of The Moon, but that she herself holds some fraction of that power. Not sure what that means, and is now all the more interested in learning more about her parents. Experiencing an identity crisis of both her personal identity as well as her humanity, and what her presence and value as an individual means on a moral value of life level as well as a risk to those around her level.
Intellectual Characteristics
Open to a lot of new things, but can be shy and go with the flow to her own detriment. Not well educated, but has a good sense for common sense. Tries to be optimistic, but is secretly kind of depressing. Relatively low patience, which either results in her ditching out or spacing out. Very skilled disassociator.
Morality & Philosophy
Do good, don't starve, and don't trust big anything
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Initially sought work with the NPC as a means to see more of the continent and find a home for herself, maybe even learn more about where she came from. However, after the events of the NPC Proving Games, she seeks the answers behind what The Occulent Collective is up to and what it has to do with herself and her party.
Likes & Dislikes
Enjoys dancing, art, flowers, meat kebabs, apples, and cheeses. Likes flowy clothes, feminine accessories, and soft fabrics. Shiny objects and a variety of music are things she can easily get lost in. Likes when people are flexible, but assertive, and finds supporting flexible people much easier than rigid people, but appreciates the structure rigid folks can bring.
Dislikes having to swim, overwhelming smells, wearing heavy boots, and loud noises. Not one to hold still for too long, and doesn't tolerate being bored terribly well. Doesn't like having her toes constricted, but has gotten used to dancers shoes for certain venues.
Virtues & Personality perks
Kind, caring, witty, and overall pleasant to be around. Makes an effort to get to know those around her and find ways to make them feel good about themselves. May struggle to stand up for herself at times, but almost always finds ways to have the energy and assertion on behalf of others. Has a strong "get it done" attitude in a crisis. Inclined to accept cultural differences, even when she herself isn't a fan of them.
Vices & Personality flaws
Conflict avoidance often leads to her sacrificing to appease others or leaving situations that might otherwise be beneficial. Learning to identify herself by herself is particularly hard, as she is a bit of a people pleaser and feels her lack of "family" origin makes her somehow less of a person the way others are. Tends to go with the flow, often detrimentally. Inclined to dissociate rather than deal with strong emotions quickly. Has an anxious temperament regarding her personal identity and value.
Hygiene
Not afraid to get sweaty or dirty, but prefers not to be. Prefers to stay clean, and is very conscious of how her cleanliness, or lack thereof, could affect those around her.
Social
Family Ties
Parents unknown, raised by nomadic desert tribe. Tribe eventually split and merged with other tribes shortly after her departure.
Religious Views
Gods exist, but that's about it. Not a firm worshipper of any particular god, but is generally drawn to nature overall.
Social Aptitude
Expresses herself better through dance and art than through words, but isn't bad at reading people and adjusting accordingly. Leans towards problem resolution/avoidance.
When Chioni came of age she decided to follow her feet across the continent to meet new people, and, maybe, find a family and home to call her own.
