Name: Princess Queen Blanche Lamarre. Age: thinking early to mid twenties, tbh.
misc fiddly bits: gonna make a journal entry at some point but i'm feeling inspired to try and make a stat/growth spread for this girl. godspeed.
basic facts (backstory):
- Blanche was born into the royal Lamarre family, and of it's four children, she was the youngest of them. Though trained to be refined and poised, Blanche never really had a good relationship with her parents. - For starters, they were a bunch of war-mongering assholes. For as long as Blanche has remembered, their country has been seeking out war after war to destabilize the countries around them and take over. Both her mother and father spearheaded these terrible deeds, and for as long as Blanche has lived, she's despised her parents for such things. - Of the royal children, she was the one who dealt with the people the most; she probably went into town often, and she got to know the townspeople pretty well and learn their suffering. Which if anything really got the ball rolling on her needing to do something about her parents. - Blanche was often treated poorly by both her parents and her siblings alike; the butt of their jokes, the object of their ire, teased all the time by her siblings for being soft-hearted. It's what inevitably resulted in her hardening her heart. - Eventually, enough was enough and with years of careful planning alongside Alaric, she saw her family killed; Alaric taking care of the siblings, and with him watching her back, Blanche taking care of her parents. (Either by way of magic or by sword, but either way, they did not go gentle into that goodnight to say the least.)
basic facts (powers):
- Blanche specializes in dark magic! I'll have her be rather slow in comparison to Alaric, but in terms of FEH stats she's the unit you'd see with a +Atk superboon on a base 41 attack stat. Girl nuke. Girl also has probably a poor HP/Def stat in exchange. (I have not decided if she got away with training this in private or something else, but for now, I'm gonna go with 'she's got an innate affinity for it she's been training for a while'.) - She also has a fair amount of training in white magic as well; she does double duty as both the party healer and the party mage, basically, at least at the start. Still, she heals about as hard as she hurts, which is to say a lot, but probably has less utility than a normal healer we'll get later. - She might also have some MINOR sword experience, by way of like. Being a little cautious about using her magic to kill her parents. ("alaric can i borrow a sword to kill mom and dad" "but you don't know how to use it" "well teach me" "alright alright" and then she just fucking stabs them. incredible, 10/10.) Basically, in 3H terms, swords would probably be her hidden talent. Not quite attached to this though. - i'll go more into this shit on the journal entry when i make it
basic facts (personality):
- Blanche is a woman who has been taught well in the art of being refined and poised; she's a woman who can play her part well as a noble when push comes to shove, but there's definitely almost always a cold, icy air around her that keeps most people at arms length. - Most people might be inclined to call Blanche emotionless, or simply very severe even on her good days. It's probably because of the fact that she uh. Kind of sucks at expressing herself? Do we have a charisma stat in this damn party is the real question of the hour jfc. - But for all of her seriousness, she's got a different face that she shows the people; one that loves to help others, and is more than willing to keep people safe with every bit of strength she can muster. - Basically, she's Chaotic Good; Blanche acts for the good of the people, but her actions are definitely things that most would deem reprehensible. Like murder! Mostly murder. - i need to decide on more shit but like. i think she's PRETTY damn violent deep down? she doesn't solve every situation with violence and of the two, blanche is almost certainly the more yielding hand to alaric's, but even blanche has her moments of white hot rage that might make her just as bad as him when provoked lmao. (i'm not entirely attached to this though, and i'm willing to nix if it'd be better if she were less. this.) - also, she's not very good at expressing happiness. like, at all. girl legit does not know how to smile anymore. she can express anger and even cry surprisingly easy, but actual happiness tends to get just...more of the same stony expression as ever. - She's a very objective person; Blanche usually tries to think logically about any given situation and go for the best option. It's just that she tends to be rather insane and risky when the best option requires it. See exhibit A: TANKING A POTENTIAL LIGHTNING BOLT BECAUSE HER SERVANT WOULD DIE IF HIT WITH IT.
