Ostia Character Traits
🕑 Added 2021-08-20 21:25:24 +0000 UTCOver on Tumblr, I had someone ask after Ostia and her viewpoints.
@randomimperialcitizen:
"Some interesting implications here. Does she throw herself into combat in some suicidal bid? Or does she simply not have the patience? After all, the quicker she kills the foe, the faster she can go home."
Which is such a good take I had to respond.
Ostia is stubborn, and very angry. She conquered the Knight wholly through the seething grief of sitting in the very spot her beloved old sibling sat where this construct annihilated their spirit.
On the one hand, she resents having to pilot the knight and its constant reminder of what she's lost. At the same time, her sibling and her family's honor is on the line and she can not afford to run away from her duty.
On the other hand, she is not ready to have two Haldus scions die on the throne in such a short span of time. She's angry, she's grieving, she's seething and hellbent on each mission being a success, but at the end of the day, she's going to live.
Her Knight actually rolled the characteristics of 'Grim and Resolute', which I think makes the two of them as a pair make a great amount of sense. Both Ostia and her Knight are commited to whatever the task at hand is, no matter the surrounding circumstance.
