gift: clairvoyance - the ability to perceive events in the future
title: princess of aereithel
sexual orientation: bisexual
- calla had an easy upbringing. her family was generous with their love, and she always had her older brothers to rely on when things got hard. being the youngest, she was always protected and sheltered from the harshness of the world.
- she grew rebellious in her early teenage years despite all of the love. her parents wanted her to be safe, and because of it, they were overbearing and had her locked up inside all the time. she could not go out to the gardens without being chaperoned, and it started to dawn on her that perhaps her entire life would feel like living in a prison.
- calla acted out a lot because of this, but it was never anything her parents could not handle. if she broke something, they would get someone to clean it up. if she escaped the guards, they would get someone to find her. she was constantly screaming to be seen and to be set free but they would not give her the time of day. they knew what was best for her, after all, and that was to be kept safe by any means possible.
- the rebellion ceased almost entirely when her headaches began. she was 14 when they started. at first, it’d just been a dull ache in the back of her head, no more painful than a simple bump to the head. then the pains began to grow more intense and fervant, rendering calla bedridden for days at a time. it wasn’t until she’d been so sure that her head would blow from the pains that the images started. flashes of the future, of people she knew and people she’d never met before, all of them converging together as one to create a single vision that told a story that had not yet unfolded.
- she saw atrocities, she saw beauty, she saw grief. calla saw the futures of not only the elves but the humans as well, and experiencing those moments - all the good and the bad - her love and compassion for all around her grew tenfold. she could sympathise with each of them, because she’d seen an endless amount of destinies.
- seeing all the lives affected by her gift changed her outlook on life. and although still rebellious in small outbursts, her parents noticed she’d become less insistent on leaving the palace and more focused on the people inside of it. it was only because she wanted to test the limits of her gift and all of the possibilites it could show her that she became engulfed in it. she was so busy learning about herself that she could not think about leaving.
- but, seeing the future and trying to alter it so often lead to many days and nights spent in her bed sobbing with the pain of a migraine. it was a horrible night when she was 15 where she could not stand the pain any longer that she felt magic seeping from her hands, flowing through the fingers pressed against her temples and into the nooks and corners of her mind.
- she immediately recognized it as divine magic, a healing gift that was similiar to the one her brother possessed. her parents were made aware of the surfacing of abilities and she was sent off to the circle to hone her powers. there, they were able to help her access her healing and her clairvoyance. but it was obvious which of her gifts were stronger. seeing the future was easy, but tending to a wound was not.
- after calla’s time at the circle, she returned home inspired and refreshed. she’d learned so much in her time away, and she’d made real friends for the first time in her life. it was after this that she knew that she wanted to help the world and to push it to grow in a better direction.
- because of her clairvoyance, she is able to slip out of the palace grounds with ease. under a disguise, she visits the people of aereithel and heals those that she can and push others in the right path when she can see it.
- at home, she whispers predictions of the future to her father, in hopes that he will make a decision that will help their people for the best. even if they aren’t always true, her father does not question her ability to perceive the future, so he is often taking her lies as truths.
- she does her best with what she is given, and she hopes only to one day travel the world and to make it a better place for both humans and elves.
- calla is a typical princess who get’s locked up out of safety. she becomes rebellious and lashes out often.
- temper tantrums cease when her clairvoyance surfaces at 14. they come with painful headaches that render her useless. the sight of future comes with a price.
- it’s interesting and world changing, so she does everything that she can to mess around with it to see what she is capable of. because of this, she gets more and more headaches.
- one night she is cradling her head in her hands when she feels magic coming from her fingers. she is able to ease the pain within moments. she knows immediately she has been blessed just like her older brother leo’dryne, and that she is a divine mage.
- she goes off to the circle at 15 and makes new friends and learns new things. when she comes back, she’s made it her goal to make the world a better place because she has the ability to do so. she can heal and she can tell the future, she will do with it as much as she possibly can.
- calla is so, so, sweet !! she’s very empathetic and always has a lot of love to give. she sees the best in people no matter how they treat her, because she knows that the simplest thing can change someone in the most drastic way
- although she is very loving and caring, she is also very guarded. she does her best to protect her family and the people she loves, and despite being easy to get along with - what you know of her will always be superficial. she doesn’t talk about her personal life very much or allow others to come too close
- very kind, very soft spoken
- she has headaches quite often, and because she’s spent countless nights using her magic to soothe her mind, she is exceptionally good at healing mental hiccups - and lacks equally in physical healing. headaches, anxiety, amnesia, anything of the sort she can deal with in minutes. cuts and bruises, however, are much harder for her to tackle
- very rebellious ! she doesn’t like being told what to do, because her parents always did it to her when she was younger. now, she doesn’t like to boss people around because of them. the people who work for her seem to adore her because of this and because of her kind hearted nature. she will just tell you to do as you please
- she is a lonely creature. a lot of her friendships within the palace aren’t real. she knows they are put in place by her parents, or they are fueled by the simple fact that she is the princess. she often yearns for true friends who love her despite her status
- very mischievous. she can get into a lot of trouble if she feels like it. most of the time she does think about the consequences of her actions, but a lot of the time it doesn’t stop her. she just likes to do as she pleases, basically, but never at the expense of someone else
