Traits

Backgrounds [21-6]

Avatar: 0 - Tsubomi was not originally born with an Avatar at all. However, new ones must come from somewhere and it may as well be teenagers with Willpower 10.
Contacts: 1 - Orikawa Makiri is Tsubomi's talent agent, a well connected woman with decent sized portfolio. She's always hoping Tsubomi will take more work but knows better than most how prickly she is.
Demesne: 5 - Sachiria was originally a childhood imaginary world. Later on, it was partially recreated as a player-generated instance in the aging, pixel based social MMORPG Al Cadia. Currently, it is known (among those in the know) as an unusually stable realm in the Maya. Among Otherworld travellers, it can function as a strategically significant crossroads between layers though not - so far as anyone has found yet - into the material world.
Resources: 1 - A spartan lifestyle. Takes a modelling gig once in a while so she can keep staying alone but could probably make a lot more.
Uncanny: -2 - An intimidating, beautiful and memorable presence.

Lore (Sachiria)

1: "It's a fantasy type queendom in the Maya - the Dreaming. The queen's a real bitch. You'll be attacked straight away if it's during the day."
2: "You can get to it via the Digital Web too. Some kind of instance on an old MMO. Security's kinda spicy but if you dodge it, you might be able to get up or downring."
3: Undergoing some kind of magitech revolution recently. Currently ruled by a Great Princess pending her formal coronation in less than a year.
4:
5: Sachiria is, in occult terms, a phylactery. It is carrying the immortal soul of Tsubomi herself. So long as the realm exists, Tsubomi cannot die.

Characters

Grand Princess of Night - Tsubomi's official position in Sachiria prior to coronation. Only a Grand Princess so that there are regular princesses to dominate.

Lein - A dark elf assassin. She's a foreigner but seems loyal.
