Hey,
naamah_darling - Remember that stream of consciousness story my brain spilled on LJ and wasn't sure what to do with?
As it turns out, it's just part of a much bigger story that started many many years ago. And also I finally know who that mysterious fourth Healthy Multiplicity character is, because this is her story.
That stream of consciousness story will be reworked. She in fact has a wife, not a husband.
The wife, Clara Kim, works as a transdimensional travel guide, and is also a IT project manager who deals with the bugs and viruses creeping into the specialized technology, which is why she is often out of town. The wife is by ancestry part Korean, part Norse, part Navajo. Dark blue-green eyes, pale olive skin, very black hair, prone to tempers, expert in several martial arts, battle tactics, performance arts, and shamanistic practices. She is a strong empath, and can naturally psychically open gateways to other dimensions, which helps in her tour guide job; and she has a magical genetic predisposition for self-healing, slow aging, and living for centuries.
The protagonist, Amber Kass, is an amalgam of several supernatural tropes: pagan witch, psychic vampire, transdimensional traveler, self-healing with slow aging, predisposed to live for centuries, psionic, telekinetic, sorcerer, able to connect with cosmic power sources, possible junior reality warper. She is Lithuanian, Estonian, Latvian - basically, her entire ancestry lies in the Baltic sea. (Get it? Get it?) Light brown hair with gold streaks, extremely fair skin, very full lips, brown eyes that shift through various shades of amber (get it? get it?), culturally considered "extremely beautiful" by various human standards (she looks kind of like this.) Born with specific neurological and neuromuscular damages that actually work to her advantage in her psychic life. Cannot work and is on disability insurance.
Clara is able to translate and understand various non-human languages. Amber is able to communicate telepathically and turn it into verbal language.
And so the Glass creatures have visited the Kim-Kass home often enough that the girls have had to name them to distinguish them, since the Glass entities have no genders (they use the xe/xir pronoun thing). Clara has gotten into fights with some of them; Amber has served a few of them rooibos tea.
Also, that is all I can get from my brain right now. Sorry!

Tell me more about Amber's specific sorts of sorcery! I are curious!

Date: 2013-05-20 02:27 am (UTC)Please ask! I'm kind of awful at world building. I need input and advice! If you are good at it you can teach me stuff!
I will most likely turn this into an actual novel. Then again, that means I need to finish Dana's novel.
I can show you the very first original story featuring Amber as a character, which planted the little seed that grew. I think I even put it on LJ. Lemme go find it...
