ylasco

a strange person who lives (you guessed it) in the sewer under a major city. the strange part being that her specific dwelling is inside a train car, a single isolated train car, lodged in sideways across said sewer. she won't elaborate on how it got there, whether she did it herself or not, nothing. she loves to antagonize people in ways that are physically harmless but very, very rude.

she knows a lot about the ongoings of the city above her, but won't tell unless given info or object of equal worth... but she's very fickle in deciding what counts as equal. she somehow has a lot of information on the knights' order, the church, and some classified incidents... that information, though, is much harder to get out of her than anything else.

personality

• enigmatic - she talks about how great she is, but anything deeper than that is held close to her chest
• lazy - she will never do more than the bare minimum and that's her promise to you!
• rude - there's not much more elaboration to be done on this one - she just kind of sucks
• observant - gotta pay attention if you want to learn everything you can, right?
• sentimental - she keeps everything that's traded to her - she may be mean, but she understands the importance the keepsakes have, or had...

design notes

• her cloak and boots are the same texture, like rubbery waterproof fabric; the shorts are just a shiny material
• the right side of her body (your left when viewing her) has a large burn scar on it, running from her face down to her thigh; her right eye can open, but not as much as the left
• she has short eyebrows
• her hair is fluffy, covers her scarred eye, and cut like a pixie cut at the back
• she has a kind-of fat crocodile tail, but you can draw it however you'd like

motifs

• reptiles
• train cars
• fire, ashes
• string lights
• manhole covers

trivia

• she's fluent in every language on teres
• there aren't any signs pointing to her train car, but she does decorate it with string lights - once you see the colourful flickering, you know you're on the right track
• she sleeps on a hammock inside of her train rather than on the seats or beds
• she has an incredible sense of direction
• despite everything said above, she is kind to children, especially if they somehow ended up at her train

inventory

item	item info
	coins ★★☆
	a rarely used form of currency in teres. it's useful for when a client wants something more material than information and less sentimental than someone's old treasure.
	multitool ★☆☆
	given to ylasco as part of a trade. she had no idea how convenient these things were until she got one herself.
	cans ★☆☆
	ylasco's main source of food. often stolen from the surface, which she doesn't even have to do; you can literally just ask?
