Honestly didn't think I'd make this considering I just moved 400+ miles, like...two days ago :'D I'll fix the coding when I actually get WiFi; for now I'm limited to phone data ahaha





Basic Information

 Name: Jacintha Lagana

 Time Spent in Aethara: 7 years (25)

 Gender: Female/she, her

 Pokemon: Carbink

 Typing: Water/Fairy



 Level of Expertise: Intermediate

>>Jacintha has been honing her skills as an illusionist since her arrival in Aethara those few years ago. When she's not creating her jewellery or working on clothing for merfolk and humans alike, she's honing her ability to create illusions, mainly through the use of light shows and/or her gemstone creation. She's fairly skilled at creating illusions that last anywhere from 10-15 minutes, though the span they can cover is only 10 ft and the movements of the illusions (if a person) are very basic. 



 Primarina's Kiss: Left upper arm/bicep


Character Information

 Personality:

[+] Calm: One of Jacintha's most dominating traits is her calm demeanour. No matter the situation at hand, Jacintha has been shown to react mildly instead of losing her patience or acting rashly/quickly.

[+] Gentle: Jacintha has a soft-hearted, caring demeanour in addition to a soft-spoken voice. She naturally exudes a rather loving personality, treating those whom she meets with kindness.

[+] Considerate: Always keeping in mind others' feelings, Jacintha goes out of her way to help others in any way she can, always eager to help. She is willing to listen to and give any kind of guidance she can, and always seems to be aware of a person's emotions, yet thoughtful enough to not pry or question unless there's true danger or the person is willing to open up.

[/] Motherly (protective babying, caring): More or less adopted from her own parents' caring demeanour, Jacintha has a tendency to be very motherly towards those she meets, making sure a person's needs are met and consistently looking after their health and well-being. Unfortunately, especially for those who are within her age bracket or older, it can come off as pampering or even babying, which on its own could be misconstrued.

[/] Humble: Despite coming from a fairly affluent family, Jacintha has a very modest view of herself. She does not brag, does not boast, and is not proud. Though thankful for comments, she often flusters easily upon receiving them, as she does not view herself as any different than anyone else, and at times even less than that. Her humility has caused her to put others ahead of herself, which at times can get her in trouble, especially if there is a situation that would require her to get medical help.

[/] Obedient: Jacintha is very submissive, quick to take direction and follow it. She will not fight nor question anyone, and will do her best to carry out the task she was asked. Unfortunately this can make it easy to manipulate her, as her meek heart, while not completely gullible, can still be used against her if asked to do something that, while not wrong, may not be for the best or comfortable for her.


[-] Doubtful: While Jacintha normally has a fairly proper view of herself, there are times when her humbleness turns into slight self-depreciation. She still feels as though she has much to work on in herself, and has a strong lack of confidence in herself. She also beats herself up at times for her parents' death despite knowing that she had no role in it, feeling at times as though it should've been her who died since she never fully accomplished her dream.

[-] Insecure: This trait goes hand in hand with her doubtfulness - expected to follow in her parents' footsteps yet straying completely from that path has caused her to question her own thoughts, feelings, and desires, and often leaves her wondering whether she really is a decent person or not, especially since she has more or less abandoned her parents' lifework with her "rebirth" into Aethara.

[-] Weak-willed: Jacintha, in an effort to please others (especially since she feels she's a disappointment to her grandparents for having disappeared/neglected the winery), often finds herself overworking herself, as she is unable to say no. She also, at times, has trouble fending for herself, as her insecurities has weakened her bravado and self confidence.

 Backstory:
[Trigger Warning: Car Accident, Death ]

Alexander Lagana originally grew up in what was considered the ghettos within Sinnoh's Eterna City to a poor family that often struggled to make ends meet, barely managing to do so through long hours of hard, laborious work. However, the arduous efforts of Alexander's parents had not gone to waste, as Alexander himself grew up to become a shrewd man. He had moved to Camphrier Town not long after his 25th birthday, and with the money he had earned helping his parents work, had managed to buy a vast, but run-down vineyard within many of the fields just outside the town. Several years later, and the product that Alexander Lagana had successfully managed to create from the crop within his vineyard had been deemed a masterpiece by Luka Bisset, a well renowned sommelier in Kalos and the father to future wife and beginning sommelier, Lydia Bisset.

Several years after that, enter Jacintha Lagana. Jacintha, being their only child, was taught the ins and outs of the winery, as well as how to care for the vineyard itself from an early age. Having gained prominence as an "artisan" of wine and as a trusted sommelier, Jacintha often ended up under the watchful eyes of others around them, expected to either take over her father's business or follow in her mother and grandfather's footsteps. Jacintha, however, had no such interest in these things. Sure, she had come to grow a fondness for the fields, having gained some cherished memories of she and her family playing within them and spending quality bonding time with them, but in the end Jacintha's interests and passion had fallen towards designing and fashion.

While her parents initially had accepted it as nothing more than a phase, as Jacintha grew older it became clear that her love for design was much more than a mere hobby. Under the influence and consistent urgings of her stern grandparents, her parents began to push her more towards the family's winery business, dragging her along on meetings with sellers, forcibly getting her involved with the operation of the vineyard, and even going so far as to cut out any free time she would normally devote to leisure or her passion of design into education on the different types of grapes, wines, and other things needed to run the winery. Her parents, seeing that the business just wasn't for their daughter, would try to show sympathy and ease the burden of caring for the fields, trying to find solutions for her to be able to pursue her desire to follow a career of fashion design while lessening her responsibilities to the vineyard despite the increasing pressure of the peers in their fields.

A life changing point came in Jacintha's life when she turned 18. The family's vineyard had won yet another reward for their winery, and as a result they all had gone out to dinner that evening to celebrate the occasion. Jacintha had been excitedly talking about a design sketch she'd come up with for a family logo at the dinner table when their car had been hit by another driver who'd ran a red light in a drunken frenzy. The next thing Jacintha knew, she was in a hospital, facing the devastating news - Lydia and Alexander's sustained injuries had been just too much to overcome, and had not survived the crash.

Jacintha had now been faced with not only the blow of losing her dear family, but it seemed as though the  need to stop pursuing her dream in order to take over and care for the family's vineyard seemed imminent, especially with the pressure from her grandparents to take over the vineyard. Faced with an overwhelming amount of despair, loss, and numbness, as well as a loss on where to continue, Jacintha requested for a leave of absence, choosing to vacation at the Hano Beach Resort in Alola in hopes of getting her thoughts together and seeking solace for the pain she felt in her heart. It was there, on the waters further out into the ocean after a storm had abated, when she heard the sweet, alluring melody of Primarina's Song, accepting Queen Arina's promises for a better life and a second chance at happiness.




Extra Information

- designing apparel or jewellery
- sketching (mostly in relation to design, but occasionally she'll doodle in general)

- reading
- surface watching at night (she loves the city lights at night)


 Companion: N/A

 Trivia:

- the veil thing over her tail is made partially of gems, and partially of light from her illusion ability
- Her gems glow when using her abilities
- On land, her hair is black, but with a blue sheen when it catches the light. Think of Wonder Woman and the way her hair is portrayed in the comics. As a mermaid, it is Sapphire blue
- the fur on her neck is extremely soft
- the bands at the end of her tail is made of the same material as the giant gemstones on her tail
- the gems she makes are the same consistency as blue topaz. The ones on her tail, however, are aquamarine. The ones made are a lower consistency than the ones on her tail, as she cannot separately produce the same quality (or higher quality) gemstones(the same nutrients aren't put into them)
- is really good with kids
- Waifu material.
