[edit] Story

[edit] Early History

Chime was an orphan taken in by King Epitav and his wife when she was young. Her mother, a gypsy Selkie, worked for King Epitav at one point. Not much is known about her father other then he was a Clavat. When Leo was born she grew to think of him as a little brother and became protective of him. When King Epitav left their old Kingdom, she was one of the few people who believed he hadn't abandoned them. After the miasma destroyed their old home, she wandered the world with King Leo and Hugh Yurg looking for a new home until the miasma was cleared from the world.

[edit] The Promised Land, Padarak

The tavern run by Chime.

Chime along with Leo and Hugh Yurg eventually came upon the frontier land, established by King Epitav. After King Leo received the power of Architek, Chime's job became to assist him when he summons her by ringing a bell. She helps Leo in constructing new buildings, demolishing them if needed and raise the morale of the citizens. She also awaits in the castle to provide counsel to the king and help him to develop the realm. Each morning, beginning the day after the first adventurer return from a behest, Chime will present the king with a report of the day before; it details the doings of every comissioned adventurer and the economical balance of the realm.

When the king gains the ability to create Taverns, Chime scandalize on the idea that the king wants to create such a thing. She in turn shocked Leo by running the tavern herself (and any tavern the king builds). Chime also shows interest in the Black Mage Academy, according to her reports, she was ready to enroll and hone her abilities, however in the end she decided against it; that is because as long as she could teleport to the king when he needs her that would be enough.

She was appointed to be the Chancellor of the king, but once the Dark Lord is defeated and Lord Epitav return to the throne, she'll be relieve of the charge and free to do as she please. She keeps a chronicle of the realm and its king, and hopes to shared the tale with her children if she ever becomes a mother.

[edit] My Life as a Darklord

Chime helps a pack of adventurers defend a city when a Flying Tower arrives. Her magical abilities proved to be useful against the menace, but in the end the day was lost to the Darklord. However thanks to the humorous-looking shape of the tower, instead of cower in fear, the villagers celebrated. Mira then left the city in order to resolve the issue.
