Character Background information:
Thea is the daughter of Ralaith. She believes and remembers that was raised in Saoire's realm / Saoire's Dream by her mother. She knows who her Immortal father is. She believes she knows the Thunderbussells (see her mother's history) and other "key" folks - but she's been very much in the background as her mother is so shy and quiet. In truth, the fully grown Cadouri is, in fact, brand new (see below)
Character concept:
Thea remembers that she had a really lovely upbringing. She had a perfectly happy childhood and is adored by her mother. However, Thea has an insatiable need to travel. To see the world and learn - not from books like her mother does, but from people and things and history and .... things! She's a street rat in some ways - certainly of no fixed abode, but that's because she hasn't settled down sufficiently because she wants to see the world.
In truth, Thea is actually mere days old when she starts. Please see MB creation story.
Appearance:
A two-foot high mouse cadouri , it is in her eyes that one can make the link between Thea's Immortal father and herself. Her face, by virtue of what it is, is stern and serious-looking and her eyes are exactly the same shade as Ralaith's. (OOC NOTE: Can we agree what colour Ralaith's eyes are, please)
Mortal Parent:
Tia Ditt
Race: Cadouri (Mouse)
Personality: A shy and studious individual, Tia is a quiet member of the cadouri population. She has a very sorrowful backstory as she has a deep and unrequited love for a certain HoratioThunderbussell. Of course, he has eyes only for his wife and Tia's adoration goes unnoticed and unreturned.
Tia lives in Saoire's realm / Saoire's dream on Scalvoris. While Thea may visit, she's not keen to and she tells her mother that she should get out of there.

Mortalborn story:
Ralaith was visiting Saoire and met Tia quite (she believes) by accident. However, he had in fact watched her and spoken to Saoire about her. Tia was a lonely woman with a lot of patience and love to give and she was desperate for a child. By the time that Ralaith visited Saoire's Dream, Tia was too old for a child. Saoire spoke to Ralaith and asked him to give Tia the baby she so desired and the memories of having had her for many arcs. Ralaith agreed because he liked Saoire, and also because of the story she told him about Tia. Tia's unrequited love struck a chord with Ralaith, and he spoke to Tia, telling her what he could offer her. She agreed, desperately grateful.
And, thus, Thea Ditt was created - in Saoire's dream - by the Immortal Ralaith. She was adored by her mother and raised in a happy, carefree childhood that everyone involves remembers completely as though it was real. Yet, in truth, Ralaith gave Tia the time in a pocket - and it is the remnant of that which led to Thea's "Blink" ability.
Mortalborn domains:
Hibernation, Tchotchkes, Shelter
Mortalborn abilities:
Hibernation:
Blink: Thea can blink out of the world, essentially hibernating for a period of time and return again at the same place, without having aged etc. unaware of how much time has passed, literally an arc could have passed and she will feel like she blinked.
She can activate this ability at will and she can determine the amount of time she "blinks" for. The duration of time that she is gone is no less than a 10-trial. However, it can also happen unbidden.
Tchotchkes
Hoard: Thea loves knick naks. Like a magpie, she adores little trinkets and treasures - things that are pretty or shiny or interesting or just plain weird. With this ability, which is innate, she finds a lot of unusual, quirky stuff. The vast majority of this is utterly useless (but she loves it) and is entirely just story-driven - where it is useful, magical or powerful in nature, this will need to be approved by a moderator and can happen no more than once a season in unmoderated threads. In moderated threads, mods may use or ignore this as they choose.
Shelter:
Burrow Thea is able to sleep anywhere. Anywhere that she rests, even if she lays on the floor of a cave, outside on a frozen tundra - this is a safe burrow for her. No matter what the actual environment, when she activates this ability she immediately falls asleep for 8 hours (not one minute more or one minute less) and is comfortable, safe and warm. If the landscape changes during that time in a way that would harm her when she wakes (like, for example, a volcano erupts and she gets covered in lava) or she is shaken awake etc, then she'd wake up. In the case of the volcano, she'd wake before she got crispy. However, while she sleeps, she is immune to harm.
Ticket: Approval
