ODDS AND ENDS
Notable Weapons
The Last Round - An old cast iron frying pan that, according to family myth, Saf's great-grandmother D'hligni used to knock out unruly patrons who wouldn't leave at the end of the night.
Betsy - A kitchen knife Saf used for home defense when an intruder came knocking. She now proudly keeps it on the front counter next to her favorite pie dish.
Notable Mounts
Lark - a pale pink chocobo she received as a hatchling for her ninth nameday
Notable Minions
Wheatley - Saf's pet rabbit. Tiny, timid, and does little more than sit in her lap and demand ear rubs.
Keepsakes/Mementos
A rough-cut green stone encased in worn, tangled metal wire that she wears as a pendant - it was a gift from her brother, made with his own tiny hands at just five years old.
Chronic Illnesses or Disabilities
Saf is known to experience bouts of prolonged, significant depression, especially during the colder months when the sun is less prominent.
Nearly two decades of harp and piano playing have left her hands prone to stiffness.
Like her mother, she sometimes has to spend her heats under the supervision of a chirurgeon. Instead of intense arousal, they can sometimes leave her too weak to stand and in so much pain she requires heavy doses of liquid painkillers to sleep.
Education Level
Homeschooled through her youth. Never received a formal diploma from an institution. Despite this she is proficient in low- to mid-level maths, can read at a collegiate level, and has a fairly comprehensive grasp of biology and history through her own pursuits for knowledge.
