JOCASTA VITA
Name: Jocasta Vita
Traditionally Pronounced: Yo-casta Vee-ta

Commonly/Personally Pronounced: Jo-casta Vee-ta
Signature: IOCASTA VITA
Other Names: Jo

Race: Human
Ethnicity/Culture: Asrakosian

Gender: Female


Age: 25
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual

Romantic Status:
Taken
Home: Eldpoint

Places She's Been To: Astrakhan (hometown), Linlea, Storm's Landing, Sangrian lands.


Occupation: Soldier, Seamstress, Falconer, Poet

Physical Description: Jocasta is around 6 feet tall, with a slightly broad-shouldered, mesomorphic frame that weighs about 156 pounds, most of which is well-sculpted, powerful muscle. She carries herself with a straight, proper posture, but that’s essentially the only thing proper about her. Her skin can generally tan, but it’s quite pale and rosy at the moment, as she hasn’t seen a proper summer in three years. Jo’s hair is generally a dark, dusty brown, whilst her eyes are more chocolate-toned.

Personality: Jocasta is a deeply empathetic, reckless person, and enjoys being around large social situations. A typical Asrakosian, she enjoys making friends, partying, and is generally an enthusiastic, amiable, if slightly talkative individual. However, her trait of being a social butterfly comes at the cost of her becoming easily bored in formal situations and easily manipulated by her worst insecurities and by those closest to her. While she lives for the thrill of dangerous activities, such as bear-hunting and combat, she is, at heart, quite at home amongst her poetry and bolts of cloth, and can often be found humming away at a loom for hours at a time.

Originally quite the wallflower, Jocasta has since found her more extroverted side, yet still struggles with her self-esteem and anxiety issues. When alone, her thoughts become darker and more self-punitive as she struggles to believe that people truly enjoy her company and that she is not worth love and respect.



Drinking Habits: Jocasta can drink a lot, but she's still liable to get tipsy, but she makes sure to never go farther than that. She mostly drinks tea, now though; it's a habit Hadley put her on to.

Smoking Habits: Has never and will never touch a cigar in her life.

Other Substance Habits: None.

Eating Habits: She’ll eat most things and she eats when she’s offered food, even if she’s dislikes it. Her favorite food is chicken, usually broasted.


Exercise Habits: Jocasta keeps herself in good form by taking long runs or walks, shadow-boxing, or by running from awkward situations. She usually exercises in full panoply, with all her weapons and her marching kit strapped to her.


Family: Jocasta’s family live as textile-makers with moderate means. Her father (Kosmas Vitus) and mother (Agathe Vita) were competitive, outgoing and helped instill her with an intense drive to learn about the world around her. Her brother is an infant, and her younger sister- Galla- is a part of the Basileos’s Tagma of Amazons. Her eldest brother- Kaeso Vitus- died in battle, which allowed Galla to join the Amazons after serving in the Legion for four years.

Sadly, the expectations set by her parents for their children were high to the point of being toxic, and when Jocasta failed to join up as an Amazon due to being unable to meet physical and disciplinary requirements, her family showed intense disappointment and began to consistently compare her to Galla, which neither sister was pleased about. Galla had to keep her mouth shut about her displeasure towards her parents if she was to keep in their good graces and find a place in their will.

The decision to leave Astrakhan, therefore, was made out of anger, ambition and jealousy.

Jo finds herself being dragged back to Astrakhan for one thing or another, but it's not so bad because she likes most of the people there, nowadays.

Inventarium e Abilita
(Inventory and Skills)
General Outfit and Inventory:

Being in the colder north, Jocasta has cast aside her shorter tunics in exchange for a longer tunic, a set of boots, and a pair of pants.

- Her longsleeved Basic Tunic that she wears with pants and boots/sandals

- Her white, summertime tunic. This goes down a bit past her knees and she often accompanies it with sandals. Doubles as swimwear.

- Her Bearskin Cloak, taken from a brown bear she took down herself.
Here.

- Her new kopis, which she uses as a weapon and a utility "knife."
Here.

- Her daggers and knives, which she keeps strapped to her hips.

- A basic knapsack filled with bandages, bread, and water.

- A coinpurse.

- A little bag filled with dried dormouse treats for Casca.


Fancy Outfit/Special Equipment:

- A fancy, silk tunic she purchased on a drunken impulse. In this link, it's the one on the far left. Sword not included.

- Her brother's rhomphaia. Right now, it's a rather rusty and bent up- she's hoping to get it fixed so she can properly train with it.

- Her own rhomphaia, which is pretty plain. She's hoping to use it on someone who deserves it at somepoint. Here.

- Her sister's armilla- military armbands that serve as an award for good service. Galla gave them to her before she (Jocasta) swanned off in the middle of the night.
Here.

- A bronze-faced steel, Greek-style panoply.


- A large, round shield covered in indigo-dyed leather.

- A simple winged hunting spear.

Casca:

Casca has been Jo's constant companion for her three years of travelling. He is a northern goshawk, and being untrained, he is rather snotty and likes to screech (when he clearly knows it's not allowed). However, he has been slowly learning the trick of the falconing trade, even if he does use it to sniff out and steal sausages. Jocasta likes to complain about how whiny and uptight the bird is, but she loves him dearly, and Casca thinks of her as his mother. Here.



Skills:

Falconry- 4/10- Jocasta’s skill’s at falconry has largely fallen by the wayside. She takes Casca on her hunts, but she normally just lets him fool about in the forest.

Poetry - 4/10 - She likes reading poetry, but she’s quite horrible at actually writing anything other than cheesy free form.

Tailoring - 5/10 -
Recently, she has been getting back into tailoring and general seamstress-ing, though it's taking her some time. She intends on opening an armor-tailor shop combination with Vulyre called Battalion Beauty.

Insults- 6/10- She's very good at poking fun at people- but doesn't like to make people feel bad, though she will often unintentionally do so anyways.

Fisticuffs- 6/10- While she can block, jab, hook, knee, elbow, and generally make use of her body as a weapon.

Knife-play- 5/10- She can stab you pretty well.

Rhomphaia- 10/10- Jocasta can use her rhomphaia with deadly precision, able to perform such feats as slipping it beneath the armor of foes or slicing through shields.

Drinking- 6/10- Jocasta is slowly learning how to hold her alcohol- or maybe she's learning how to operate effectively when she's drunk off her ass. It's difficult to tell. Either way, the six tankards of warm beer a day are helping her.

Dancing- 10/10- Jocasta loves to dance, but will never do it in front of people.


Languages/Dialects:

Common (Language): Fluent.

Asrakosian (Dialect): She knows all the words and phrases of her homeland. Yet, her intense fear of being ridiculed or even attacked by the Northerners she’s surrounded by makes her usage of it to be limited.

(Relationships)
The Vitus/Vita Family:

Father (Kosmas)- Jocasta dislikes her father for his inability to admit his own mistakes and his habit of trying to live vicariously through his children. Still her dad, though. (NPC, but is up for grabs.)

Mother (Agathe)- Likewise, Jocasta dislikes her mother for the same reasons as above, as well as the fact that Agathe tries to pit her children against each other for her maternal affections and whatever property is in their will. Still, she's her mother, and she cannot help but feel some love for her. (NPC, but is up for grabs.)


Eldest Brother (Kaeso)- Jocasta was just five years old when Kaeso died, but she misses the stability his mature nature brought into the family. She has come to the understanding that his death was the likely catalyst for their parents' bad behavior. (NPC, but is up for grabs.)

Eldest Sister (Galla)- "You're a giant teddy bear, even if you don't want to admit it." Galaxy

Youngest Brother (Nikolaos)- Nikolaos is just a baby. She misses him. (NPC, but is up for grabs.)

Garrett L. Herennius (Adopted Brother)- "You are a grown man now- and still you get yourself hurt! Ah, it doesn't matter; I'm so proud that you're finally on your own! I'm always here for you if you need me, Garry.." Galaxy

Romantic Affiliations:

Vulyre:
"I always knew working out together was more romantic than sitting down and having dinner! I'm glad to have met you, my love; you bring the best out of me, and I aim to do the same for you.
We'll make Battalion Beauty a reality yet: I just need to relearn my tailoring skills.. " Olligreen

Friends:


Maple (Fellow Amazon)- "You're gonna get killed in the coolest way someday; we should totally go beat something up soon!" Opal

Mira Laranja (Neighbor, Fellow Brawler)-
"You need to take me on your next adventure; I can't be one-upped by a vyre who has to sit in the dark all day!" drbrownca

Lana Wake (Bookworm, Poetry Lover)- "Let's try again." I am Wake

Count Leighton Altham (Boss)- "Just when we were developing a friendly report, you up and vanish! I miss all our tea-time chats, boss! But, no, really; you've given me everything I could have asked for; a home, a good job, and plenty of arms and armor. I wonder how you'll take my suggestion to go abroad for more work, though.." Mapboy

Countess Carling Altham (Kephale, Fellow Seamstress)- "I wonder where you've gone off to, too.. I hope you aren't too swamped in work, wherever you are. Maybe when you can come back, we can compare weaving styles, hm?" MelodyComplex

Acquaintances:

Remus Herennius (Cute Bug Kid)-
"I'm glad that I won't have to take care of your insectoid messes anymore, Rem! Still, it's fun watching you hop around like a grasshopper and annoy the crap out of people.." ShamelessSauce
