Description

At five-foot-nine in her stockings, Veronica is a taller than average woman who appears to be in her mid-twenties. She has the trim, athletic build of a dancer with long, graceful limbs and unmistakably feminine curves which in no way distort the sense of strength about her. In addition, her clear, pale complexion and gracefully smooth movements evidence a life beyond that of a common laborer. Wavy locks of light brown frame her heart-shaped face from which hazel eyes gaze onto the world from above high cheekbones.

Outfits

Begman Vest, Blouse and Skirt ensemble

She is wearing an ivory colored cotton blouse with a high collar and full upper sleeves that tighten below the elbow into rows of tiny pin-tucking to the wrists which are encircled by tiny white bobbin-style lace rosebud motifs which are repeated down the front of the shirt parallel to the small bone buttons to fasten the shirt closed. Over the blouse is a double breasted, cotton flannel vest with a tiny hounds-tooth pattern of bistre and cream colored threads with two rows of small, covered buttons and wide, notched lapels. With this she is wearing a chocolate brown, twill walking skirt which is short in front but dips almost to the floor in back. Beneath the skirt her legs are covered by black hose which has thick opaque stripes alternating with thin, nearly transparent, stripes that extend the length of her limbs. Black, high heeled boots are laced up to mid shin and complete her outfit along with a brown fedora and a yellow smiley face pin worn at her neck.

Black and Gold Sari

Black Gown

She is wearing a black bustier dress which is backless and floor length with a basque waist. It has a single strap over her left shoulder that splits into a Y across her back. Her shoes, although unseen, must be high heels as she currently appears to be six feet tall.

Black Mon-Lace Dress

She is wearing a dress of black floral patterned Mon-lace with a square neckline and long sleeves that reach all the way to her wrists. The dress extends down to mid-shin and contrasts against her pale skin where it can be seen though the lace. Beneath the outer dress, keeping it from being completely scandalous, is a silk black skirt and matching top with spaghetti straps that almost perfectly blend into the pattern of the lace above it. Tight fitting, black leather boots rise up to just beneath her knees, covering her legs from that point down.

Black on Black Adventuring Outfit

She wears a blouse of midnight cotton with circular, onyx buttons and a nehru collar that is cinched at her waist by a leather belt with a black enameled buckle. Beneath her belt the blouse dangles about her hips leaving her long legs visible, hugged by leggings of the same color that sparkle slightly due to silvery silken threads interwoven in the fabric. Boots of black leather climb up to just beneath her knees, covering the leggings from that point down. Additionally, she wears a well-cared for jacket made from wrinkled leather that is slightly stiffened by age.

Accessories

Flora's Ring

A delicate silver band with a setting of carved silver in the shape of a floral arrangement adorns her left middle finger; the carving is enhanced with emerald chips and amethysts which add color to the leaves and petals respectively.

Smiley Face Pin

Years ago, Dirk (her first cousin twice removed) gave her a yellow smiley face pin as a random gift. She still wears it to this day.

Stetson Fedora

On August 18th, 14 (2017), Iolion sent Veronica a classic Stetson Fedora

Waterfall Necklace

About her neck hangs a necklace made up of a hundred or so strands of silver that is known as a "Waterfall Necklace".

Character History

Veronica is the daughter of a Montevalnan servant and Lord Nathan Chantris of Amber. She was recognized as Nathan's daughter by Duke Cyrus of Chantris in late 2009 and around the same time she opened Pelle e Pizzo, a clothing store, in Amber at Main Concourse and Weavers Street. She had been missing for years but is active at her shop again and spending a lot of time at the Chantris Manor as well.

Background

Below are detailed descriptions of Veronica's family background, personal background prior to approval in 2009 and a brief summary of the previous RP in 2009 and 2010 (with links to the character's LiveJournal from that time below in the logs section). All of this is slightly spoilery so you are free to choose not to read it as you wish.

Family Background

Veronica Nayelenor Chantris is the descendant of Amber Royalty and Nobility though a pair of Montevalnan serving women, her mother and grandmother. Her father, Nathan Chantris, was an adventuring noble from Amber who, while visiting the home of Lord Mikael Tanto of Fiorra (the Montevalnan City of Canals), became smitten with Veronica's mother, Elenor Nanicolette, one of Lord Mikael's wife's chambermaids. Nathan was last seen in Montevalno sailing away to travel to the isles of Sukho, departing before anyone knew that Elenor was pregnant.

Veronica's tie to Amber Royalty is though her mother by way of her grandmother, Nicolette Sorto, who was a chambermaid in her youth for Lord Mikael's mother. She caught the eye of Sir Mordred of Lyonesse, Black Knight and son of Princess Deidre of Amber; Elenor is the product of their dalliance. (When she met her grandfather, Mordred commented on Veronica's remarkable resemblance to her grandmother, to the point where he almost seduced her before realizing that she was his granddaughter.)

Personal Background

Veronica grew up in Lord Mikael's household with her mother, until Elenor died of consumption when she was six, then her grandmother. Having been born around the same time as Rebekah, Lord Mikael's youngest daughter, she was selected to be the noble girl's companion and maid. Additionally, her liege also arranged for her to have private tutoring in his home from the Guild of Attendants training her to be Rebekah's bodyguard.

Veronica's association with Rebekah ended when her charge married into another noble house to cement an alliance when they were twenty-one because her new husband forbade her from bringing anyone from her father's household into his. Since her father had given her control over Veronica's indenturetude at her cotillion, Rebekah released her friend rather than sending her back to servitude under her father.

Equipped with a substantial purse given to her as a parting gift from her friend, Veronica used her new found freedom to travel though the principalities of Montevalno and, by purchasing berths on ships plying the seas of shadow, other worlds as well becoming an adventurer like her father and a "procurer of rare objects and antiquities" while remaining an emeritus member in good standing of the Guild of Attendants.

In 2009, while visiting her grandmother in Fiorra, Veronica found her mother's journal and some pictures she hadn't shared with others in a cache hidden in the walls of the rooms within Lord Mikael's familial home which her family had occupied for generations. Among these were sketches that could have gotten her mother killed were she still alive: including ones of Veronica as a child warrior, quite obviously flights of fancy based on conjecture, as well as some she couldn't place. Many of the pictures she couldn't place were of a handsome man Veronica didn't recognize. One of the pictures of this man was labeled with the name "Nathan" and from the journal she discovered that this Nathan might have been her father and that he had come from a "far away land" that was "further than the common ship can sail." It was easy for her to put two and two together which lead her to seek an audience with Contessa Rosamunde in Aventia. Upon finding out that the Contessa was visiting the royal court of Amber, Veronica bought passage on a Minosian ship heading to Amber.

Logs and RP Summaries

Year 3 BC

• Missummer's Day: A Wedding Crasher. Veronica meets an uninvited "guest" at her best friend's wedding.

Year 6 (2009)

Past Journal Entries: November

November

• November 18th: Veronica wrote about staying in an inn in Amber after meeting with Contessa Rosamunde that day. That the meeting was pleasant and the Contessa recalled their past meetings and presented her with a letter of introduction to take to the Duke of House Chantris.
• November 19th: Veronica wrote about having breakfast at the Crown and Rose, where she'd stayed the night before. There she met a woman who turned out to be the captain of a ship called the Midnight Sirocco and gave "Captain Bloodwhiskers" as her name. She also mentioned putting off her meeting with Duke Chantris for at least one more day.
• November 20th: Veronica wrote about meeting with Duke Cyrus of Chantris that evening. During the meeting she showed him a picture of Nathan that didn't feature his name on it and between that, her talent with languages and her age Duke Chantris acknowledged her as part of the family and installs her in a guest room at Chantris Manor.
• November 21st: Veronica made two entries this day…
  • In her first entry, Veronica noted that she was given the letter of introduction back and was able to read it. In it she found out that her Contessa is known by Rosalynd in Amber and that her proper title is Princess.
  • In her second entry, Veronica notes that she has been given leave by Duke Chantris to claim a room in the mansion as her own. She notes that she chose an infrequently but well equipped guest room as her own. The entry also stats that she visited the family library and read a book about the family. She also officially declared her desire to change her name to Veronica Nayelenor Chantris that day and was informed that she must learn how to sail.
• November 22nd: Veronica wrote of time spent with the captain of the Midnight Sirocco (who has given her name now as Kestrel) the night before, exploring the shops of Amber that afternoon and the meeting cousins (Liam and Fiamme) at a mead hall that she went to for dinner.
• November 23rd: In this entry, Veronica noted that on the 19th Cyrus told her that she had a half-sister (Imre-Ulani) who stays in their father's old room in the mansion which is just down the hall from the room she selected for herself. She then explains that they finally have met and how happy having a sister has made her.
• November 24th: Veronica wrote about a startling near-encounter with a black-haired man with a pale complexion and menacing demeanor and of meeting up with Liam Chantris again and his escorting her the rest of the way home. She also comments on how she shouldn't have been so afraid and how he vanished from one moment to the next so she isn't sure who he was. (OOC: The menacing man was none other than her grandfather, Mordred.)
• November 25th: Veronica wrote about doing research in the Chantris Library this day.
• November 26rh: Veronica wrote about how it had been years since she drew anything and that she woke that monring with the desire to do so. A trip to the palace ends up producing a rough sketch of a tree. Instead of being a realistic picture of a tree it is impressionistic, lines on the page define the shape of a tree in such a way that if one were viewing it at a distance, or if the viewer was squinting, then the missing parts are filled in by a natural trick of the eye finishing the impression of a tree. She also mentioned being referred to the owner of Frozen Seas in the lower city and then meeting her, an undine named Meijanni Kell, before Lady Celeste Mandrake arrived and bought Kell's stock out completely. While there she drew a rough, caduceus-like sktech with no real detail: in it, replacing the winged snakes, are two undine with their snake-like lower bodies twisted around a pole and their upper bodies arcing backwards from from it like the traditional wings.
• November 27th: Veronica wrote about going horse riding and watching an encounter between Celeste (as a dragon) and a man named Syed. She also notes having found a perfect location for a shop/studio at the intersection of Amber's Main Concourse and Weavers Street after which she talked to her cousin, the Duke, about financing it; he agrees to do so and also grants her leave to take passage on any Chantris ship.
• November 28th: Veronica wrote about opening her shop: Pelle e Pizzo.
• November 30th: Veronica wrote two entries this day…
  • In the first entry, written in the morning, Veronica recorded spending the previous day setting up her shop during which Kestrel visited. She also noted considering hiring help.
  • In the second entry, written in the evening, Veronica noted that she finished and opened up Pelle e Pizzo, including hiring a seamstress named Polly.

December

• December 2nd: Veronica wrote two entries this day…
  • In the morning she wrote that the day before she had a few customers come to her shop from the lower city before a royal customer (Dirk) came and placed an order for formal attire as well as picking up a shirt and trousers off the rack. The engty goes on to explain that her uncle Liam took her walking though Shadow and got them lost for a while before returning to Amber.
  • In an evening entry she wrote about meeting her cousin Beatrice (Her Grace Beatrice Solaris, Duchess of Arden Pass, First Lady of Court).
• December 5th: Veronica's entry this day reads "I returned to Fiorra via a Chantris ship to Minos and a Minosian craft after that for a brief visit. Saw my Nana. Plan to return soon."
• Discontinuity: Veronica was captured and detained for a few weeks in Montevalno before she could return to Amber. She is rescued by Duke Cyrus and Duchess Dinah along with her little sister Imre-Ulani
• December 19th: Veronica writes about being rescued and brought back to Amber.
• December 22nd: Veronica wrote two entries this day…
  • The first of the two entries, written in the morning, is about a social event at the palace the evening before which was hosted by Duchess Beatrice and Princess Rosalynd; among the many guests was Princess Florimel. There was singing, poetry, an exhibition of works of art and then philosophic debate before a heated argument broke out.
  • In the second entry, written that evening, Veronica wrote about being called on by Syed before being summoned by Princess Florimel. In the entry she states that Flora prepared Montevalnan tea and then interviewed her about her past and offered her a position in the Sun Court and a job as her social secretary.
• December 29th: Veronica wrote two entries this day…
  • The first entry is about another meeting with Princess Florimel occurring the day before when she formally accepted the offered position and notes that Flora gave her a signet ring as a token of authority. Additionally, she went on to write that her customer Dirk visited her and took her to a place called the Mermaid's Cove. There she appreciated the whale skeleton handing in the place and Dirk told her that he is Dinah's brother and that they are children of Prince Caine.
  • The second entry talks about an event days previously where she ran into the man she'd previously seen stalking her along with Lady Emma Feldane (who insisted on being called Emma). She learned his name, Sir Mordred, and sketched him because he'd stated that she looked familiar to him and this lead to a throry she had to visit her grandmother to find out the truth. Using a Chantris ship named The Elenor by their father before he vanished, Veronica and her sister went to Montevalno where they find out that Modred is her grandfather. During the return voyage Imre told Veronica about how he had threatened them as leverage for her good behavior with him.
