Other: She has an everyday look, which makes her blend in with the big crowd. Nothing about her stands out. She is neither a striking beauty nor repulsive. Most people have a hard time remembering her facial features and would have a lot of trouble describing them or recalling them if they had to. What color did her eyes actually have? And what color was her hair?! Her aura is perfectly uninteresting. She is just a moving part of the background. There are other more colorful, beautiful, knowledgeable and powerful figures… to be invisible like this makes her a damn good thief.

| HISTORY

• Vaiva was born in Bergast, the capital city of Brelan.

"There is an alley in city, when you walk through it, it feels darker than all the others. The alley is narrow, the old stone buildings and houses are empty or inhabited by beggars. The alley is shaded, except in the middle of the day, by the mighty shadow of the big castle. This alley has a reputation in this city, it is popularly known as "Dead Children's close". Unwanted children, usually illegitimate, are left here. No one really knows where they go, but it is a way to get rid of their trouble. There I was left.”

A woman and a man left their 2 year old child in a notorious alley. Vaiva could barely walk, but she has a special man to thank for her life: the Bergast's "Father of Thieves". It was he who found her, took care of her - as he had done with many orphans. "The Thief Father" provided for the children's needs; food, clothing, shelter. Along with a bunch of other unwanted children, she learned the tricks from "The Thief Father". Vaiva escaped a certain death thanks to that man. She were trained to steal and swindle whatever she could, most of which ended up in the pockets of her tutors. Often the children of "The Thief Father" didn't see any of their loot after they turned it in, but sometimes the loot was split equally between all the children.

"The Thief Father" is a well established in the underworld. None of the children were encouraged with thoughts of being allowed to stay or the hope of becoming a companion to "The Thief Father". When they were old enough, it was time to move on. She and a few others from her cohort left as teenagers, they were all their own "experts" in surviving. You can probably think that life on the streets would be easy for them, they grew up on the streets. But it is not that easy, trusts were tested, many probably sold themselves to rival gangs, to the mists of alcohol, the soft embrace of drugs or to one of the city's pleasure houses. Vaiva saw one by one of her friends vanish, most of them would end up in the gallows.
