Born and raised in the captal city of Tom, Aria is the eighth daughter of Lord Alistair Faltin. Currently the youngest of her bloodline, she is an aspiring initiate of the Assassins Guild.


## Appearance

Aria, like all of the Faltin sisters, is considered beautiful. She stands in at about 5ft6in and is currently the shortest of the eight siblings. She has clear, pale skin and sports sharp facial features, giving her a fierce appearance. Platinum blonde, lightly curled hair frames her face and has recently been styled and cut to a practical length, as to not cause her problems at the assassins guild. Her eyes are an alluring pale blue and under the right kind of glare, can act themselves as an ice cold weapon. Despite her sharp features, she tends to keep her expressions fairly light.

Aria has a lithe build and is mildly toned from her prior training in both dance and combat, making her a fairly flexible individual. Currently, she wears the grey robes of the assassins guild first years, opting for a uniform style that mimics the stories she was raised on.

## Personality

Considered calculating by some, Aria is a quietly confident character with a burning, deep set sense of ambition. While she is usually reserved; preferring to stay in a calm and focused state, should the notion take her she can become concerningly intense, especially if something is coming between her and her goals. Aria is a character who has no qualm with detaching emotion from a difficult scenario in order to make a hard choice, especially if she feels that such a scenario threatens her in some way. Despite this she is not a particularly aggressive person, preferring to take the respectable route through most situations.

Aria is as close to a workaholic as a student can get, she will frequently push herself to points of exhaustion with her studies if she thinks she can get away with it. When it comes to her grades she takes things very seriously. 

Raised in an excessively competitive family, she learnt early on that any form of recognition had to be fought for. She quickly developed a heavy frustration towards her position as the youngest, as she could never quite out-compete her older siblings, especially once they entered a guild. As time progressed she could only watch as the gap between her and her sisters widened leaving Aria to come to the realisation that to catch up, she would have to be consistently exceptional. This ideal began to form a lot of self-set expectations, less than perfect was no longer an option. Over time she has become fairly proficient at internalising a lot of the pressure on her shoulders, keeping up a composed façade to help strengthen her resolve. 

A lot of Aria's moral standpoint is book learnt, growing up on glorified stories of noble assassins who'd free Taleros from the tyranny of mad kings. She has a great admiration for these characters and though a somewhat naïve goal, she aspires to be just like them.
