Description

The ragged clothing that Maika wears is black and loose, and looks to have once been a dress before one portion was ripped apart for easier movement. Her white gloves and her sandals are not in much better shape, having old stains and lots of wear. The only neat part of her outfit is the black ribbons that she keeps her blonde hair in pigtails with. Her brown eyes are almost yellow from the lightness of their color, and when she is in a calmer set of mind, they look wide and curious. When angered or in battle, they instantly lose all childishness and become those of a crazed fighter.

Personality

Maika's greatest strength and biggest flaw is that she will say whatever she thinks. No matter how insulting her perspective might be, or how inappropriate a conclusion she draws is, she has no issues with telling everyone around her. This is even more glaring when she decides something without knowing much about the situation or all the facts. On the other hand, it also means that if someone is her friend, she will defend them with loyalty matching any good guard dog's. She has no fear of being hurt in battle. Rather, she finds it exhilarating to show that she is strong, strong enough to not suffer at anyone's hands again. A lot of this is a tough shell that has grown around her to keep her protected from her experiences in life so far. Should it be pried away with much persistence, it might be seen that deep inside is a young girl who desperately wishes for love from parent figures, since hers were taken so early in her life.

Character Traits

Character Flaws

Contacts / Friends

*Olivier Joachim: Her brother, who is now fourteen. She calls him 'Ollie' most of the time. Her greatest desire is to find him again.
*Jedrek: A fellow slave who is a decent thief that she calls 'Jed'. She looks up to him, seeing him sort of as an uncle figure. His fate after their escape is unknown.

Enemies

*Raider Boss: Identified by an earring with a small fang on his left ear that he never removed. She never heard him addressed by name, but only as 'Boss'. A desire for revenge eats away at her when she thinks of him.
*Lavia Priston: A rich woman who owned her as a slave. She never forgets a transgression or the face of someone who wronged her. Though not strong physically, she has some skill in magic.

Born in a small village that was a good distance from any towns or cities, Maika Joachim's first five years of life were peaceful. Her parents were both clerics of Pelor, thus she was raised to have faith to that deity. Partially because of this, and partially because of who she was, she grew up with a huge protectiveness over her little brother, Olivier Joachim, who she usually called Ollie. Only one year younger than her, he was still much more timid and docile than his older sister. He often would cling to her hand and follow behind her, something their parents thought was adorable and a great sign of the siblings bonding.

Near the end of when she was five, the village was attacked by a group of raiders. The peaceful community had a few warriors, all of who were cut down before they could do much to help. Maika's father blocked some of the bandits long enough for her mother to get Maika and Olivier out of a back window. She told Maika to keep Olivier safe. That was the last Maika saw of her parents. She ran into the forest, tugging her brother in the right direction. One of the raiders spotted them trying to run, and knowing they could not outrun him, Maika told her Olivier to keep running in a different direction. It took outright threats to get him to leave; he insisted on staying until she snapped that he would slow her down. That was not how she felt, but it did make him run the other way. Maika then caught the attention of the raider. Though she was captured, she saw no signs of Olivier in the group of prisoners that was gathered after the attack, meaning he had gotten away safely.

The leader of the raiders, a man with an earring on his left ear that had a fang, was someone Maika loathed from then on. He treated her and the rest of his captives cruelly, so much that one of the townspeople died on the way to the city that was their destination. Once at the city, the remaining villagers were promptly sold into slavery. Maika was purchased by a rich woman, Lavia Priston, who needed physical laborers to build on her land, mostly additions to her mansion but also some other structures. Her reasoning was that children were cowed far more easily than adults and had greater energy due to their age. While she did own some older slaves as well, Maika was not the only child she had working for her.

That might have been the case for some children, but Maika was not one of them. She rebelled against her hated owner whenever possible, whether it meant breaking something being built or outright attacking the people who were instructing them on where to take materials. Even though she was beaten over and over again for her actions, Maika still caused trouble, preferring it to becoming one of the submissive and quiet slaves she was surrounded by. Due to the life she was trapped in for the next ten years, Maika remained more like a child than ever growing into an adult when it came to mentality. That was the biggest effect, though others also shaped her into a bit of an oddity. The strength her muscles had increased from having to move so many heavy objects, making her far stronger than most girls her age. On the flip side, she never learned to read, since her owner saw no point in a slave learning how.

She would still have been in that position if not for a new purchase that Lavia made less than a month ago. The older man, Jedrek, saw that Maika was the only slave to have utter defiance to her situation. Jed, as she called him, suggested that they try to escape together. He revealed he was a thief who was good with picking locks, so he could get their manacles off. The plan was to do this and sneak into Lavia's house to kill her, so that everyone else could be freed. Due to some wards that they did not expect, she caught on to their plan. Jed wound up shoving Maika into a river, and having never been in a situation where she had to swim before, Maika was carried away despite her resistance. This action saved her from being caught again, but it left Jed's fate unknown.

Alone once again and completely lost, Maika began to walk with only the items she had stolen before being knocked away. Several days later, she finally found signs of civilization: a town called Gloomy Vale. She began to approach the gates, not sure of what she would find, but knowing what she wanted. Even after so many years had passed, her desire to find her brother still burned strong in her. The loss of Jed also troubled her, and even though she did not know him for more than a few days, she had grown to like and respect him, making her want to find him as well.
