Clothing: Black casual
Comportment/Cadence: Confident
Supernatural Qualities: Her gaze darkens and widens with a curious appeal, while that webbing between digits does grow more pronounced, and her skin darkens from a golden tan to a hue of glistening gray; her mortal attire is replaced by black voile of modern yet simplistic design, easily removed; water seems to drip from her hands and face and rivulets flow down every luscious curve of her body: she's always wet, head to toe; that beauty still borders on the erotic and is ineffable, to say it simply; meanwhile, she's well-known in the area for playing by her own rules and not caring a whit for anyone thinks, even if it does (and it has) offend them
Accoutrements: A fishing pole with a small net, almost like a lacrosse stick (mollusk snare)
Traits: Appearance 5 (provocative); Style 1; Surreal Beauty; Notoriety

"Oooh, that's a nice, big specimen!"
History
Date of Birth: December 2nd, 1986
Home: Half Moon Bay, San Francisco, California, United States
Family: Harry and Belinda Haight (parents), Misty (younger sister); Terry (birth name)
Chrysalis: Personal Tragedy (She grew up in the Bay Area, a bit spoiled even if her navy father wasn't wealthy; her parents let her be on a loose leash, and she became quite the beach party girl; her Chrysalis arrived when she was caught in a particularly nasty rip tide while out swimming one evening and nearly drowned; a harbor seal swam up and saved her and then, inexplicably, became her), 2000
Mentor: Ondine
The Test: Trial by Influence (chimerical gulls informed the local Selkies of the incident and she was brought before Queen Ondine to learn the ways of her Kith and be Sained, renamed then as Tyche; even then, she felt aloof from her fellow Selkies, perhaps due to a profound Unseelie streak)
Comrades: Drew Donnelly, Aila, Lawrence Temblador, Ula Morrigan, Laena Pickett
Key Event #1: Awe & Wonder (so, Tyche broke off from the nest and took up her own lifestyle in solitude, content as a humble shell-collector/conchologist)
Key Event #2: Awe & Wonder (it was an easy life, she ate cheap, often hunting fish for herself, slept on the beach or in natural coves, and enjoyed the occasional hook-up with a cute boy or girl, but she blew off most other fae long-term, and so it earned her a bad rep in the area)
Transition: Shift in Purpose (she did provide local guide assistance to a crew of fae pirates once, taking up with the crew's diving specialist and fellow Selkie, Drew Donnelly, but she was not a joiner and remained content on her beaches)
Remembrance
Magnitude: Tyche's memory reaches back about a hundred years.
Details: She's been in the Bay Area that entire time and has always blown everyone else off, content in her relative solitude.
Chimera
Mollusk Snare
Appearance: A simple wooden pole to which a net is attached for the purpose of catching bottom-dwellers, namely clams, mussels, snails, and other mollusks.
Origin: Inherent
Bunk Styles
Style: Magic Realism
Examples: Listen to a seashell, sunbathe, whispering to the spirit world, run/swim a lap
Significant Other
Name: Drew Donnelly, 2007
Nature: Erotic
Drew
Weakness
Solo Seal
Seals are not meant to be solitary animals and Selkies are no different. Tyche prefers her lifestyle but it is dangerous, especially since she's rubbed some of the local nobles the wrong way.
Likelihood of Corruption
Average.
She stays out of "the trouble" but she also does it alone, rendering her more vulnerable than if she had someone to keep her constantly in check.
