Hi! I just found this sub and wow the art is amazing on here! I wanted to try a LFA because wow y'all are amazing.
A little background: Yue is a really unique character for me--I tend to play sort of dumb and straightforward characters, so playing someone who cunning and two-faced is a new and ridiculously fun experience for me. I've grown super attached to her as one of my good friends plays her sister and the two of us have spent way too much time crafting these two over the past few months. So SORRY IN ADVANCE FOR THIS LONG RAMBLE ABOUT HER I just adore her and was excited to info dump haha.

Yue Chien is a shou human divine soul sorcerer (wow that’s a mouthful) currently trapped in the hellscape that is the underdark. What she lacks in kindness (a lot) she makes up for in cunning and charisma, and is willing to put anyone else, including her forever devoted sister, in danger for her own benefit. Even though her power source may be divine, Yue is anything but religious; her older sister Revati, an aasimar treated as a blessing from the gods by both their family and hometown, has always overshadowed her, leaving her spiteful and bitter towards not only the populace but also the deity that blessed her. This was only compounded when at age 14, Yue took an interest in magic, hoping to remove herself from her sister’s shadow. As she began to study wizard’s tomes, Helm, the very god who had blessed Revati, blessed Yue with magic assuming Yue was learning it to support and protect Revati. Somehow, Revati has generally managed to avoid Yue’s scorn; likely because Yue is convinced Revati is the only person who truly cares about her. There’s also the fact that Revati is dependent on Yue—she’s mute and Yue is the only person other than their parents who can translate Revati’s sign language to the rest of the population.
The two have long since left their home, and travel together, with Yue capitalizing on Revati’s divine status to con people. The two arranged to enter a great tournament (with only Revati fighting of course—Yue would work behind the scenes to ensure victory) to make a quick buck, but before a single round of combat could begin, them and 10 others were captured and sold into slavery, delivered to the drow in the under dark. The rag tag group of adventurers somehow managed to escape their captors and are now currently trying to navigate the region and return to the surface.
Yue is approximately 5’3 and fairly slim. She’s got a soft, attractive face, with sort of bored dark brown eyes. She’s got long black hair, with a slight bounce to it; she generally swaps up styles dependent on the occasion, but prefers it either down or in a high ponytail. When not on the run from slavers, she spends a lot of time on physical upkeep—nail polish, make up, skin care—and it absolutely shows. She prides herself on her appearance, and takes care to not get any cuts or blemishes. However, she does have a single marking on her skin—the outline of an eye, on the back of her left hand. It’s the symbol of Helm, which was plastered onto her skin when she received Helm’s blessing.
While normally Yue would be wearing something more fashionable, at the moment she doesn’t have very many options. She’s currently wearing a sort of silk, lingerie-esque, black dress (adorned with small spider motifs) that she stole from their captors as they escaped. She has a few bangles on her wrist that act as her summoning focus, but beyond that has lacked the time to properly accessorize.
