Vanity (PC)

Vanity is a young aristocrat living with the twin witches Virgo and Margo in the Lavorne Mansion. She exudes an immense charismatic presence anywhere she goes and seems to have a lot of very specific skills in both the magical arts and espionage trade. One wonders where she learned it all.

Appearance
Vanity's name is one very befitting of her. She only wears the finest silks and jewellery within the empire and spends a lot of time each day on the way she looks, seemingly viewing her beauty as her greatest asset in life. Vanity is most often draped in pastel pinks, reds and violet dresses, which impeccably match her rosey-coloured hair and eyes.

Personality
Though Vanity may at first seem a little stand-offish to outsiders, anyone she talks to quickly warms up to her and her charms. Her pragmatic and perfectionistic demeanour sometimes hide the fact that Vanity cares greatly for those close to her.

Biography
Before the Mansion

Fit snuggly between the many, hobbly hillsides and meandering rivers of the old-country of Doren lies the wonderful city of Brovnoia. Before the annexation of Doren by the Alberean Empire, Brovnoia used to be three small towns by the names of Kyzul, Stavartov, and Mensk. All three were primarily governed by the craftsmen of the towns, only divided by a single river-delta, yet all with wildly varying cultures. When the empire invaded, they saw great opportunity for the towns as a hub for trade. An iron-fisted ruler was appointed as steward of the newly-conjoined towns, now to be known as 'Brovnoia', and was given a small army to enact her rule. Her name is Elena Catteau and she has governed Brovnoia since.



Ever since, Brovnoia has become a great place of respite for weary travelers, tired soldiers, and as a hub for cultural conjugation. The one thing that has truly remained from the olden times are the noble families of Brovnoia. Thrown a bone by the empire, they were given great wealth to maintain a certain level of civility and status quo during the annexation of Doren. Greedily, they accepted the Emperor's gold and built great courts with it from where they would live as the wealthy elite of Brovnoia. These three lineages are the Volkovs, the Nowaks, and the Dubois family. In the court of the latter of these families, Vanity spent most of her youth. In the halls of the Dubois estate, she learned to walk, talk, and behave like nobility. Vanity barely ever talks about her youth at the Brovnoia courts. One would expect it to be the most fairytale upbringing one could ask for. But perhaps there is more to her that meets the eye, or the Brovnoia nobles for that matter...

Vanity's Secrets

In Episode 2, it was revealed to the viewer that Vanity had been relaying private information about the Lavornes during her stay at the mansion to Imelda Violet, head of the Witches' Association. Imelda had apparently blackmailed Vanity into spying on them for her with some dangerous intel on her past.

In Episode 3, it was revealed that Vanity had been harbouring a number of secrets from her family at the Lavorne Mansion. Her old family at the Dubois Estate in Brovnoia appeared to no longer be alive. What exactly happened Charles Dubois and Celeste Dubois, remains unclear. However, the estate seems to currently be run by three of its servants (Zofia Wiesniak, Velmer Voss, and Dotti Voss) in an attempt to hide the fact the lords of House Dubois are no longer in a state to represent it.

In this same episode, it was also revealed that Vanity is a half-elf, her mother Celeste being a Montclairoise elf from Arlevaux.
