Brief Description of Persona:

  • Nerissa comes from a line of sea fairers, and therefore tans very easily. People who know her well say that she looks at the sun and she darkens. She is 5'2", and is fairly lean, what one might consider an athlete. She has short light brown hair that curls naturally, and her eyes are the color of the sea on a stormy day. She has a beautiful smile that appears often. ens to her chin aproximately.

    Rissa is always the center of attention and popularity, and what's more, she loves it. But she doesn't always have to be, and she can share the spotlight, if needed. She is as happy-go-lucky as any girl can get, and she always has a new joke up her sleeve. She doesn't easily anger, and tries to turn everything into a joke, which annoys some of her friends, especially when they are trying to get serious.

    Brief History of Persona:

  • Nerissa comes from a long line of sea fairers, but her great-grandfather was the oddball of the family at the time. He settled down in Coral Reef and took to carpentry. And his family had to admit that he was good at it. This change of occupation carried on down the line of the males in the family until it got to Nerissa's father. Though he had no sons, and Rissa was his only daughter, he still taught her his trade, and she took to it like a fish into water, as the locals say. After learning her trade for a while, she sailed to Crystal Crescent Cove to set up her own shop as a holder.

    Description of Pet:

  • Cali is inherited the shy gene from her mother. She has to know you for at least a turn before she will let you hold her. But it takes only a little scratch under the ear for her to start purring her little heart out. Though she hates the water, she knows that living near the ocean brings more water than usual, and accepts it. She can always be seen accompanying Nerissa to her shop.
