Goldina Hedgewick
Goldina is a ruthless and unabating lover who uses their sharp mind and passion to not only succeed in their profession as a Matron of the The Graceful Bloom but to become so well known that The Crimson Lily aggressively recruited Goldina as a spy and informant.
Sexuality
On a personal level, Goldina is attracted to those with power and enjoys the feeling of having some kind of control over them, especially during sex. Feeling relatively insignificant for their entire youth, they discovered how much they loved the sense of power they felt over the people who paid for Goldina's services.
Personality
It may seem cliche but Goldina uses their sexuality as effectively as a thug uses a hidden dagger. They are attractive and sensual with a great deal of experience manipulating others by using sexual attraction. Presenting themselves as appealing to a specific individual is basically how Goldina survived life in the capital city alone under the protection of The Graceful Bloom.
Adopted at a young age by the madam of the Etude Graceful Bloom, Goldina is a master manipulator who uses her considerable charms to discover all kinds of way to help her clients - she's actually quite altruistic despite the lurid and exploitive reputation that lingers over the industry. Despite moving to Claiver to run the Graceful Bloom bordello, Goldina is still very close with Elise Redding, the covert leader of the ciminal organisation known as the The Crimson Lily.
Although she's certain Elise is more than she seems behind her maternal and martriarchal demeanor familiar to those who know her from the bordello. Thusfar it's been beyond Goldina's ken to deduce that Elise is secretly one of the most hunted criminals to every exist. She may not know exactly what Elise is hiding but not much would surprise her, regardless. Elise essentially raised Goldina and the loyalty the two feel towards eachother is akin to siblings.

Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Petite and graceful, Goldyna moves with an elegance that hides a surprising physical strength for someone so little. When working they always present themselves with polish and poise including their clothing, cosmetics, and hair.
Mental characteristics
Education
Raised in the backrooms of a brothel, Goldina didn't have much for formal lessons when it came to education. They were taught how to read and write Cadence, as well as basic mathmatics and a few medical lessons so they could support themselves as a prostitute without being a burden to the others working at The Graceful Bloom.
The closest thing to 'formal' education that Goldina received was how to read others. Goldine isn't a selfish person but loves being able to understand the motivations of others with a glance and often picks up on details others overlook.
Employment
Beginning as a teenager, Goldina worked as a consort in the The Graceful Bloom until their natural talent and passion for the work was recognized by the previous Mistress of the brothel and Goldina began to ascend in noteriety, eventually taking the role of Mistress when her matron stepped down.
