    Name: Suxen Mer
    Race: Northern Hylian
    Class: Tinker
    Age: 19
    Gender: Female
    Place of Origin: Castle-Town
    Alignment: Lawful Good
    Statistics/PWC:
    3/4/2
    Power ***
    Wisdom ****
    Courage **
    Height:
    5'9
    Weight: 147
    Instrument: Bass
    Craft: Botanist Lv2
    Profession: Tinker Lv2
    Equipment:

    Weapons: Not much of a fighter, Suxen only carries tools of her trade with her. The closest thing to an actual weapon is a small, sheathed knife that is used for cutting cords and fuses. She also carries a hefty iron spanner, which she could probably use as a decent club in a pinch.

    Clothing and Armor: The closest thing to armor that Suxen wears is the leather apron she uses at work while working on various bombs and other things she tinkers with. The apron has large pockets on the front, for storing her tools and bits of what she is working on. When it is hot and she isn't actively working on something, she undoes the heavy leather strings around her neck to let the top part of the apron hang down. Along with that, she also owns a hefty pair of leather work gloves, which are dark brown like the apron. She also has a heavy pair of work goggles that often are resting loosely around her neck. The strap is a dark brown leather material, but the frames are steel and the glass thick and solid.

    Underneath her apron she wears a dirty, white linen tank-top, and a pair of loose, brown leather pants with large pockets. The pants are kept up by a simple leather cord tied at the front, and she wears light leather sandles. She also owns a leather satchel she carries a books, inks, quills, rough schematics and anything else she needs to carry around.

    Treasures:
    Racial Perks:

    Business (open)
    Business is a utility trait, and a universal racial perk. As such, any character can choose to gain it as a perk upon character creation. Because this treasure is a universal perk, no character may acquire it after creation.

    By gaining this perk, the character may freely gain the first level of any one Crafting or Profession treasure.

    Suxen started with the first level of Botany.
    Sense (open)
    Sense is a defensive trait, and a racial perk for both Hylians and Tokay. As such, a member of either race can choose to gain it as a perk upon character creation. If a Hylian or Tokay chooses to gain this perk at some point after creation, the perk costs 15 rupees less than the listed price. Other races acquire this treasure normally.

    Those with this ability can automatically detect the presence of and vague location of other living creatures purely by instinct, particularly those who are dangerous or intent on doing the user harm. The range of this sense is roughly five meters (or 15 feet), and penetrates all forms of barriers, even those which deflect magic.
    Bonus Treasure (open)
    Bonus Treasure is a utility trait, and a universal racial perk. As such, any character can choose to gain it as a perk upon character creation. Because this treasure is a universal perk, no character may acquire it after creation. A character created with this perk may be created with any an additional treasure for free. The gained treasure must be in the Lowest Cost category, or be any one treasure with a set cost of less than 30 rupees. Of course, the character must be able to meet any prerequisites of the treasure to be gained.

    Unlike most perks, Bonus Treasure can be taken multiple times. The user can either gain multiple Lowest Cost treasures, or gain a single more costly treasure, as follows.
    • 2 Bonus Treasures: the user may gain any single treasure in the Lower Cost category.
    • 3 Bonus Treasures: the user may either gain any single treasure in the Low Cost category, or one Lowest Cost treasure and one Lower Cost treasure.
    Through Bonus Treasure, the user can never gain any set cost treasure with a cost of 30 rupees or more. Similarly, the user cannot use this effect to gain the Crafting or Profession treasures, or additional levels of either.

    Ember Seed Supply was Suxen's Bonus Treasure.
    Craft:
    Botanist Lv2 (open)
    Botany is the art of creating specialized items from seeds and plants, to create potions, poisons, bombs, and other items which are consumed or used to create a temporary effect. One who practices this art is known as Botanist. It is one of several crafts which utilize materials to create new items. The other common crafts are Weaponsmithing and Outfitting, which respectively focus on crafting weapons and crafting armor.

    Suxen earns a bonus 4 Rupees from a Quest/Dungeon, though she can forgo 2 Rupees at a time to recieve a Botanist Seed instead.
    Profession:
    Tinker Lv2 (open)
    While a character can hold a job without using this treasure, only through a Profession will a character receive rewards from a job. Professions could be anything from Politician to Waitress, from Town Crier to Cook; it could literally be anything a character could use to make money. The sole purpose of this treasure is to earn extra rupees. A character cannot benefit from multiple Professions.

    The Business universal racial perk can make it easier for a newly created character to excel in a Profession.

    Each Profession holds 10 levels of expertise. For each level the user has, he can gain an additional 5 rupees at the end of a quest or classic dungeon. Normally, these profession-based rupees cannot be put towards a treasure in the quest which they are earned. Only the character with the profession can gain these bonus rupees.

    The first level of a profession always costs 30 rupees. Every level thereafter costs an amount equal to its level x 5. For example, the second level of a profession costs 10 rupees, the third costs 15 rupees, and so on. Coincidentally, the amount of rupees earned by a level (after the first level) is equal to how much that level costs. The table to the right compares a profession's level, the cost of that level, the total cost of all levels inclusive, and the amount of profession rupees earned at each level.

    Suxen's Profession is "Tinker", which involves the study, creation, and repair of mechanical constructs and inventions. She earns 10 bonus Rupees per quest/dungeon.
    Skills:
    Seed Collector (open)
    Seed Collector is a utility technique, and a racial perk for Tokays. As such, a Tokay can choose to gain it as a perk upon character creation. If a Tokay chooses to gain this perk at some point after creation, the perk costs 15 rupees less than the listed price. Other races acquire this treasure normally.

    On the Tokay homeland of Crescent Island, seeds of certain varieties are widely used in a system of bartering not unlike Hyrule's system of using rupees. As such, all Tokay originating from Crescent have been conditioned to have a natural talent for seeking out seeds. A being from another race can learn to recognize seeds with specific and intentional training, but it is relatively difficult.

    Once per quest or dungeon, a user of this technique can gain one of the following materials for free. The acquisition of the seed must be specifically mentioned in the role-play.
    Items:
    Ember Seed Supply (open)
    An Ember Seed appears as a small fruit, with a color and shape which resembles a flame. When an Ember Seed is struck against a hard surface, it bursts open in a fiery spark that can damage those near it. These seeds work effectively as a means of igniting a flammable object or as slingshot ammunition.

    This treasure represents an ample supply of these seeds, and as such the owner always has just enough for routine use of them. These seeds are enough for practical use, but they are not pure enough to be grown and cultivated by a Botanist. For pure, individual seeds suitable for cultivation, see Ember Seed. A skilled Botanist can consume four pure seeds to produce an effective Supply.

    Rupees: 10

    Physical Description: Suxen stands around 5'9 and weighs around 147 pounds. She has lightly tanned skin that is usually covered in dirt, soot or grease. All except for around her blue eyes, because of her goggles. On her arm, much like her outfit, are minor burn marks from working with hot metal and explosives. Her muscles are developing well from all her hard work at Uncle Leo's Bomb Shop in Castle-Town, mostly to keep up with the Goron owner himself, Leo Fireleaf. She has jet-black hair, bangs that are parted in the middle and brushed to each side, strands that go infront of her pointed ears, and the back of her hair reaches just below her neck. Her bust is modest, often banded back with padded leather straps under her clothes, to better keep her bust from being in the way as she works over delicate materials.

    Residence: Suxen lives with her parents still, in the residental district of Castle-Town. It is a modest home, though Suxen spends more of her time at Leo's Bomb Shop. While the shop is technically in the Goron Slums/ Ex-Merchant District, it is pretty close to the residental district of the city. The shop also doubles as the workshop where they build the bombs that they sell. If she isn't in the back measuring out ingredients or assembling bombs, she works in the front behind the counter when needed and in off hours cleaning up.

    Personality: Suxen is ever the optimist, smiling happily as she works at the shop even though it is hard work. She likes to daydream, as it gives her time to think about the endless possibilities of her work. She generally likes to avoid combat, as she as little to no combat training and isn't really built to be a warrior. She enjoys her work, but dislikes swimming because she hasn't learned to swim properly. She loves sweet foods the most and will drink alcohol on occasions, usually just with her co-workers at the Bomb Shop. She can easily become curious about strange contraptions, and is always on the lookout for inventive new things to try and build.

    Backstory: Growing up in the city, her father working in construction and her mother at the local blacksmithy as their book-keeper. She had a happy and simple life, but with all the Gorons that moved into the city, she became fascinated with the big rock people and would take to watching them from the upstairs window in her room. When she was about ten, she would wander from the house and sort of follow them around, not meaning to seem creepy, she was just curious of what Gorons did and why they were different from Hylians.

    One day, while following a Goron around, he walked into a shop near the edge of the Goron Slums. While she had a hard time reading the sign, which had been written on with paint in very bad handwriting, she could see a blue sphere on it. Peaking inside, she didn't see anyone around, so she wandered inside to take a look around. Snooping around the shop, she crept behind the counter and found some round, blue spheres. Picking one up, it was heavy and she was about to see if it bounced when a booming voice behind her told her to put it back. Screaming in terror and turning, the large Goron she had followed was standing before her, arms crossed across his chest, staring at the girl as she put it back. Worried she was in-trouble, she quickly started to explain why she was at the shop and that she didn't mean any harm. To her surprise, the Goron wasn't mad at her, but amused at her endless curiousity.

    When he escorted her back to her home, he explained to her parents what had transpired. While she was afraid she was going to be in even bigger trouble, it had turned out to be the beginning of her greatest passion. Since her parents worked a lot, the kind owner Leo Fireleaf agreed that Suxen could come and stay at the store, and even help out if it pleased her and he would pay her accordingly. While she started out just watching the going-ons of the shop, she did eventually start to help out. She would sweep the floors and clean the shelves, be adorable infront of customers, and assist the workers in doing inventory. Leo would always pay her for her work, and made sure she would get home safely. She got along well with the Gorons who worked at the store, and they would always be willing to take a moment off from their work to explain what they did if she asked.

    While she was the only non-Goron who worked at the store, it ended up helping Leo's Bomb Shope quite a bit. The shop was cleaner then it had been because the Gorons really didn't mind a little dirt, and it was always a cheerful environment with her there, singing songs and telling jokes. The best thing though was Suxen pointing out that the sign for the shop was near-unreadable. Leo admitted he hadn't put much thought into the sign, and his writing was horrible. So Leo had Suxen re-do the sign, giving her a blank board of wood and a bunch of paints, and the end result was quite hilarious. She had written clearer, the sign saying 'Uncle Leo's Bomb Shop' in bright pink bubbly letters. She had drawn lots of blue bombs, some of which surrounded by colorful explosions and she had drawn all the Gorons around the side, with Leo and herself in the middle. All the little brown and yellow goron heads, crudely drawn and smiling, made all the workers chuckle. Leo loved it though and he hung it back up infront of the shop, and it's been the same sign since.

    Once she was fifteen, Suxen was allowed to work the counter, selling the wares of the shop, but always having one of the Gorons a simple call away to deal with rude customers. When she turned sixteen, Leo gave her an apron and tolols and that is when she allowed to actually learn to make things and work in the back. She still worked the counter a fair bit, having a knack for it, but she would also help the workers out, preparing tools, bringing them ingredients, learning techniques, and in general just working as an extra pair of hands. Not only did she learn the art of building bombs, but in her spare time she tinkered around with learning mechanics in general, as it was safer then working on bombs which Leo still wasn't confortable with her working with.

    Recently, with the announcement of the building of Impa, her father will be travelling to the town to help with construction, and her parents decided it was a great time to move, thinking Impa would be a nice change of pace. Suxen was against the idea, not wanting to leave the shop she loved, but Leo told her she could always visit, and the world experiences would good for a budding young inventor. Really unhappy about the idea, Leo eventually convinced her to go travelling, and that she could come back and work anytime to show him everything she learns in her travels, while also spreading word of Uncle Leo's Bomb Shop to any travellers she meets who need any explosive goods.
