Mira’s Life from Her Perspective
I escaped my Sidhe Lord’s service after years of being used to capture young men and women for him. It took every ounce of courage I had, and desperation such that I cared not if I died in my attempt to escape, but I managed to flee through the very Shadow Gate I had used to lure the unsuspecting mortals to their doom.
For months after, I lurked in a pond at a park in Mythic City, scraping by on food provided by shelters and pantries and spending my nights in the soothing waters of my pond. Even better, I had discovered a Shadow Gate at the bottom of my pond, accessible only when certain stones were placed in the correct positions. I had my escape from to Faerie there, my own personal corner of Faerie. Continue reading Mira’s Life from Her Perspective
Less Seleman
Description
Less appears to mortals as a pale man in smoke-coloured glasses dressed in a shabby grey suit that is slightly out of date.
He appears to supernatural senses as a man with no eyes or mouth. His skin is somewhat shiny and takes on a slight shade of the dominant colour of his surroundings. The lack of eyes and mouth on his face is more than made up for many eyes and mouths dotting the rest of his body. They are all different and shift and express themselves more or less of their own volition. He is generally sharply dressed in a well-cut suit and hat, though the style of the suit is generally from a distant decade or century (when men knew how to dress).
Mira Naia
Description
Mask
In her mortal form, Mira has dark brown hair and dark eyes. Her mask grants her healthy, if pale skin tone. Mira used to dress in whatever she could find or what people gave her, given her lack of steady income. However, since her association with Rey Lafitte, she’s changed her lifestyle and might be found wearing anything from casual to formal wear. All her clothes are new.
Her hair has been cut short in an asymmetrical style, similar to the one Qora has in Tron: Legacy.
She is 22, 5’4”, 115 lbs, born July 7th. She is originally half Japanese, half American.
Hollow Love
The last portion of this may not be safe for work.
Mizuko had decided she was going to convince Amber to go out with her to a movie. When she asked earlier, Amber had mumbled something or other through her bedroom door that Mizuko chose to take as an affirmative. Now she was all dressed up in a nice brown and green skirt with black trim and a strapless top. She’d even managed one of those bras that were supposed to lend support without straps over the shoulder, though she was doubtful it was going to work very well. She hated the thing, but not only had she made the effort but she even made an attempt at a little makeup.
Amber hadn’t even come out of her room yet. Mizuko was about to plead with her that even if she wasn’t going to go to the movies, she at least had to come out for something to eat, when she heard the apartment door open. She turned away and took a couple steps down the short hall to where it opened into the large living and eating area.
Remy stood there, returning something to his suit coat pocket. He hadn’t noticed her yet, and there was a slight frown on his face.

Party at Gallery Mathius
Three days before the party Remy’d invited her to, there was a knock on the door. Mizuko was still staying with the two former prostitutes in a small, rented apartment in Santa Fe. One of them, Lea, was also working at a waitress and had managed a day shift at a family restaurant. The other, Kiera, was working at as a receptionist at a chain auto repair shop. Both were out working in the mornings, which left Mizuko a chance to sleep in from her evening shifts at Corazon’s.
