PERSONALITY
Ilde is a restrained and polite young woman. She is not very outwardly expressive, which may give an aloof impression. Or it might exude peace to those who need it. While a bit difficult to engage initially, she is very devoted to those with a little patience.

Gardening is her life and she takes a great deal of pleasure in sharing the produce from her garden.

While an inmate, she began to develop a stronger sense of self, but is still quite new to the idea of having agency and impact on the world around her. Thus, she treads carefully and observes thoughtfully before she acts. She is curious about the experiences of others and the worlds they have come from, and is an engaged listener to anyone who decides to share with her. She is a compassionate confidante.

Much of her more toxic traits have eased, but she retains a manipulative streak. Luckily, she is mostly moved to manipulate stubborn people into realizing their own best interests on the Barge. She is not quick to anger, but her anger is very fiery and sometimes vengeful. She's managed not to act on it, so far.

She retains some psychic damage from her time in the Godking's court and is vulnerable to magic that invokes chaos and madness. She does sometimes forget the progress she has made and falls back into prior delusion. However, each episode is a little less intense and her recovery is quicker.
BACKGROUND
IMPORTANT
๐ŸŒน Dreus, the Godking;
The madman who controlled and terrorized Ilde. He destroyed their world.
๐ŸŒน Ba-Rahmy, the Prince;
A shadow of Dreus, the last of his good nature. Kept in the dungeon by Dreus.
๐ŸŒน Camille, the Witch;
Another girl Ilde's age, briefly a friend. Was a witch and tortured to death by Dreus.
Ilde was conscripted into the religion of a mad king. Godking Dreus, deluded by his own insanity, believes that the world has become too impure and must be destroyed so that the souls of the people can live free of impurity. He declares that Ilde is the saint who must die alongside him in order to purify them all. While they await the rapidly approaching day of apocalypse, Ilde works in a magic garden tucked away in the cliff beneath the palace. The magic there and Dreus's obsession for her has a certain feverish quality which easily pulls her into the delusion. She dies on the last day, hoping fervently that Dreus is not just a madman and that this will mean something.

Reborn on the Barge, she continued to puzzle her way through reconstruction.

Her road to graduation involved accepting the lies and fallibility of her former god, embracing her own agency and self-expression, connecting with others, and once again finding the will to live. What she needed most was to have nothing asked of her and to just be allowed to live for herself. Her warden, Xigbar, luckily was in no mood to rush her and allowed her to flourish at her own pace, while also enlightening her with stories about many different peoples and worlds.
ABILITIES
SHE TALKS TO FLOWERS
After being irradiated with chaos magic in the Godking's garden, Ilde developed a subtle extrasensory ability to understand the needs and feelings of plants.
THE GARDENER
The garden is Ilde's one true love and she continues to study garden science and horticulture. She is also very knowledgeable in how to use and process herbs and produce from the garden. She can make tinctures, teas, oils, etc, She knows how to dry, pickle, and otherwise keep produce for long-term storage.
VICIOUS
She's a much better and more dangerous fighter than she looks like. Her life in the Burned World was very dangerous and she will protect herself and others.
MISC
๐ŸŒนShe has a cat named Sweetest. Sweetest is fluffy, patient, cuddly, and has great self-esteem.
๐ŸŒนShe carries a military style knife. There are gently glowing yellow runes on the knife that will give you a headache if you inspect them. The knife is extra effective against shadow creatures. She also uses it for everyday utility. Given to Jinx [personal profile] ctrl_x
๐ŸŒน She has a living simulacra of her original world that she nurtures. This nurtures the regrowth of her world, which was revived with a deal when she graduated.
๐ŸŒน Her warden item is a floral wristwatch.

โ€” PERMISSIONS:

And then the day came,
when the risk to remain
tight in a bud
was more painful
than the risk it took
to blossom.

๐ŸŒบ FOURTH WALLING / CANON PUNCTURE: She's an OC, so unlikely.
๐ŸŒบ BACKTAGGING: Yes
๐ŸŒบ AVOIDED TOPICS:
TL;DR I don't like NPCing bigots. Text does not trigger or squick me, but I don't find it enjoyable to engage with external racism and homophobia (/other forms of hate). If it's appropriate to the setting, I'd prefer it be kept to an absolute minimum and then to move on. I mind it less when it's an internalized thing a character is dealing with.
