A person of many faces, Alea spends most of their time playing a persona. Their entire demeanor changes at the drop of a hat. They can be whoever they need to be, for the right price. Their work as an informant has allowed them to master the arts of persuasion and deception, their words unfounded in truth serving only as a means to an end. However, their deceit is not heavy-handed; if you believe they're being facetious, it’s usually an intentional blunder to distract from a wandering hand in your belongings. Spending so much time playing a character has its consequences; they often finds themselves struggling with their sense of identity. They becomes an amalgamation of the people they interact with in hopes of finding a sliver of their former self in one of them.Those who have spoken to Alea recognize that they have a rather blunt way of speaking, preferring to spare the formalities and make conversations as efficient as possible. Their default reply to offhand remarks is a nod or a hum to acknowledge the speaker without having to form a longer response. They hardly mean to come across as rude or disinterested. If anything, they find it rude to prolong a conversation past its time. However, this need for effective communication does not stop them from adding their two cents when a situation allows it—even if their intrusion would have an unsavory outcome like in the case of an escalating fight. Despite their best attempts, they can’t help their underlying urge to provoke. They take great interest in learning others’ true natures.Few have gotten to know them more closely, but anyone who has taken the time would find pleasant conversation. They try much harder to actively engage in discussions, abandoning their head shakes and grunts for a clarifying question or two. If they're feeling especially playful, they may attempt to crack a joke or two, though they tend to come out rather clunky. Their strength lies in dry or sarcastic humor, as their normal tone often leaves others wondering whether or not they are joking. They typically uses this skill to malign others, especially those who attack their peers, in an underhanded way that rarely leads to a confrontation. Those who have gained their allegiance will have it until they decide otherwise. Even still, they hold these people at a distance—they would hate to lose everything again.

feeble savior
"he ensures i do not fall, i kill all foes that cross his path. fair trade, no?"
HOOKS.
metaphor.
"you can't trust a single thing i say."
have you ever seeked out insider information? you might have interacted with alea before! as an informant, alea has a wide web of contacts, each with valued information that she holds closely to her chest. that said, the sound of a jingling coin purse is often enough to loosen their lips...or tighten them.perhaps your character is an active client of his, seeking information. or perhaps you've never met and aim to benefit from his network. just remember, everything comes at a price.
✩₊˚.⋆⁺₊✧
poison.
"poison running through my veins."
over the years, alea has taken a liking to potions; more specifically, he's taken a liking to poisons. they have made it their mission to curate several, brewing into the late hours of the night—even going as far as to test them on himself. they have even begun to sell their large collection to any patrons who dare to ask.if your character is even more familiar with the seedy undersides, they might know about alea's side hustle. maybe you were a buyer of hers in the past. if not, maybe you would like to be.
✩₊˚.⋆⁺₊✧
killer.
"there's a killer, and he's coming after you!"
when they're not spilling secrets, they're spilling blood. alea has also taken up a side job as an adventurer for hire, and for the right price will slay anything—or anyone. luckily, this job meshes well with their others.if alea's schedule is too light for her liking, she might be inclined to take a task or two. if your character is low on coin, do not fret; alea takes information as payment, too.
✩₊˚.⋆⁺₊✧
running away.
"running away is easy, it's the leaving that's hard."
alea, in their informant work, has had to wear several different hats to find out information. in separating from his true identity, he easily falls into a caricature—but it can be awkward when people find he after such an elaborate lie.your character might know alea under a different name and profession, maybe even a different personality altogether. unfortunately, she might not recognize you.
✩₊˚.⋆⁺₊✧
gladiator.
"smash your competition, baby."
if your character is familiar with the tribes of the steppe, or perhaps encountered them, you might have seen a formidable lancer by the name of alea igras. the resemblance is stark, almost uncanny. your character might wonder if they have any relation.though, igras was definitely a xaela au ra, and the one sitting in front of you is raen without a doubt. but that feeling of familiarity is far too hard to ignore...
✩₊˚.⋆⁺₊✧
double life.
"oh, the thrill of the double life!"
