Charlotte Hemm

= Charlotte Hemm, the Drifter, the Strange One =

Charlotte Hemm is a bit of a ghost in terms of presence. She's travelled the world, but only ever joined up a nation once. She is self-preserving, seeking stability and shelter. She values nature in what feels like an inhuman way. Charlotte keeps herself under wraps, never revealing her true nature or intentions.

Childhood-Adolescence
Charlotte was never particularly social as a child. In fact, her only social interactions came from her parents and any fauna that happened to become enamoured with her (which was quite often). She learned to read and write very well. Not all was at peace in her corner of the world, though. War struck, as it often does, and Charlotte was left without parents and only a penny to her name.

She struck out on her own with her pack and her wits, foraging for food and killing if she had to. It's in the wild and the untamed that Charlotte grew up and learned how to survive. She learned self-preservation and fighting for her rightful share. She learned that there was nobody but herself to trust, and that she needed to keep her eyes open for a knife in the back.

Arrival to Rathnir/Eldham
Charlotte has two storylines taking place at once: one within Eldham, one within Rathnir. Her arrival to Eldham resulted in a quick join to Helos, where she is mayor of Ylille. Her arrival to Rathnir resulted in a short stay within the Vostok Republika, but she moved to Nullaria shortly afterwards. While technically part of Nullaria, she subscribes to no particular area and chooses instead to move around. Charlotte is a drifter at heart, but she's also a writer and a musician. It's common to hear her lamenting via song in the dead of night on a lone platform near the ocean. "'I do this not because I can, but because you said I couldn't.' -Charlotte H."



False Fae
As a False Fae, Charlotte observes a variety of cultural holidays and rituals. She values these greatly and she most often wishes to be left alone during them. Charlotte also feels a close bond with nature of all kinds as a False Fae. An excellent way to win her favor is to leave some flowers (specifically poppies) out for her, or gift her something from nature. She especially likes shells and sweet berries, along with shards of prismarine and turtle scutes. Charlotte loves quality time in nature above all else, so the best place to find her is along the coastline or in the trees.

Charlotte also has small vestigial wings as a False Fae. Hers closely resemble a Celastrina argiolus 's wings. She also has small anntenae, fuzzy in the way a moth's is, that she keeps tucked under her hair. Charlotte does her best to keep her position as a False Fae a secret, too worried that someone finding out will result in her death. If you recognize any signs of her being a False Fae, it is best to not say anything until you have earned her trust.
