  ♀ GENERAL
  
  Full Name: Carmen Yasmin Domingo-Alvarez
  Nicknames/Alias:
  *Canta (most commonly used nickname in all business and social dealings)
  *Karma de la Mortaria (alias for criminal activity- this is the only name that will easily draw up links to her past and La Mortaria cartel, known to only those associated with her past or the very trusted)
  *Tula (childhood nickname- rarely used now)
  *Cara (mother's nickname for her; never used anymore- maybe one or 2 childhood friends use it now but it raises a great amount of hostility and emotional pain when used)
  
  
  Age: 28

  ➙Appears: Mid to late twenties. Of age.

  Gender: Female, cis-gendered.
  Species: Long-tailed Chinchilla (Chinchilla lanigera) **

  ➙Sub-species: Costina variety; blue-gray fur.

  
  Profession: Entrepreneur and business woman. |
  Hobbyist Perfumer; scent distiller and creator of essential oils. Under the table overseer of a drug cartel, petty smuggler, tonic maker, poison crafter, and drug seller- specializes in import of cocaine and information extortion.
  
  Social Class: To the naked eye and through interaction she very much appears the self-made businesswoman in mannerism and comportment: a middle class merchant, if you will. In truth, she is High Merchant Class, bordering on Nobility, although her fortune is almost entirely made of dirty money. She is an heiress to an export company and drug ring- there is quite a bit of money to her name, but she only keeps enough on her to keep her accounts afloat at any one time. As of right now, she will not even tell the closest of her new allies of her origins.
  
  
  Marital Status: Polyamorous. She is quite stifled and unhappy in the binds of monogamy, and would grow wildly discontent if ever bound to one person. She is prone to affairs but is also quite picky about who she takes to bed. These individuals must build a certain rapport with her in order to stay in regular company. Content to pick, choose, and remain unsettled for the moment- it will take a significant offer for this to change. She is technically single in the eyes of her family and any sort of law, and quite content this way for the time being. She may be looking for an arrangement in the distant future, however, as her remaining relatives are hesitant to leave her inheritance unsecured.
  

  ➙Paramours: Some lovers find their way deeper into her life than others. These individuals are set far apart from any other she may hold intimacy with, as they have shown unwavering loyalty and trustworthiness through many trials. They stand the test of time past any option of betrayal and find their place securely at her side through each tribulation. These are the few that she trusts with her whole truth, identity, and heart. These are the few she guards most fiercely above all others, and ones whom she hopes will stay close until the end of her days. Currently there is only one who holds such a station: Her pirate king,

  Sexual Orientation: Polysexual, with the ability to appreciate all genders and sexes with the right level of attraction. Outwardly, she may state that she is heterosexual to preserve her safety and station in certain company, though her body language and mannerisms with an individual she is attracted will most often speak to more than a passing interest.
  
  Voice: Accent.
  
  
  
  ♛ APPEARANCE
  
  Weight: Fluctuates 140-150 pounds/ 63.5- 68 kg
  Height: 5'3"/ 160 cm
  Build: Petite, but curvy. Big busted; thick waist still holds a pleasant shape as it's dramatically indented and corset-trained. Modern day measurements would be something like 41-34-46 (follow Jada Sezer's measurements for real life reference). Whiplike tail that flares out to a fluffy tip- sort of looks like a flexible feathered quill.

  Facial Structure: Heart-shaped face. Strong jawline, full lips though not outrageously disproportionate. Face is generally proportionate and a pleasing mix between soft and hardened features.
  
  Eyes: Very dark, nearly black. Pupils and irises often catch the light in ways that seem to make them amalgous and very big. Lids are weighty and slightly hooded; circular to semi-oval and big when compared to the rest of the features on their face.
  
  Hair: Pitch black, though it has highlights that make the tress appear blue if it catches the light right. Long and generally straight, medium thickness, ends about mid-back though sometimes she gets temptation to cut, style, and dye it randomly.
  
  Fur: Very soft to the touch. Mainly blue-gray, with sparse dapples of white here and there.
  
  Body Modifications: Two ear piercings, both at the back and base of her flared ears. A discrete nose piercing on her left side that she usually keeps fixed with a small stone or a gold bead. Snake eye tongue piercings.

  Vertical clitoral hood piercing.

  
  
  
  
  
  
  Accessories & Trinkets:
  
  

  Nearly Always on Her Person
  
  1. A golden pocketwatch. Polished and in mint condition, save a few scratches on the back that betray its age.
  
  2. A cane crafted of hardy cherry wood, silver handled and tipped. Shows no intrinsic need for the thing.

  Perhaps it has sentimental value?

  The cane's wood is a touch thicker than normal canes, and the handle can be pulled and unsheathed with relative ease to reveal a sword-like blade, although it's relatively thin to fit in a cane. She rarely uses the sword- she much prefers to simply knock people in the gut and kneecaps if need be.

  
  3. Two daggers, one throwing and another long-bladed, usually strapped to her garters.
  
  4. A pipe and flavored tobacco.

  
  
  

  Often Carried
  
  1. A darkly-tanned leather satchel. Well maintained, although it is beginning to fray on the areas of most weight bearing, indicating age and a long love for the article. Often carries documents or scent samples.
  
  2. A pair of half-moon reading spectacles. She doesn't necessarily need them, though she fancies their appearance and they do aid her somewhat in close up reading tasks. Kept in a case in her satchel.
  
  3. A flintlock pistol. She rarely uses the thing, again, as it is so cumbersome to load. Still, it gives her some security from the memories of a very well-aimed shot.

  
  
  
  
  Fashion Sense: Fluctuating, depending on her responsibilities of the day. Practical and nearly masculine when working in business relations or intensely laboring over her tasks: riding breeches, boots, suspenders, long sleeved and cuffed shirts with buns or ponytails.
  
  When her schedule is more relaxed, her style becomes much more effeminate. Depending on her mood, she will wear lose and flowing robe-like garments, or something more contemporary and Victorian. She has a penchant for pushing buttons, so many times her effeminate garb can be revealing and scant if only to draw reaction and emulate a distinct sort of confidence (see also).
  
  Almost always wears a heel despite whatever fashion she wears to somewhat level the playing field in terms of height.

  ♀ INNER WORKINGS
  (For more, look under the tag 'deep')
  
  Personality: Tenacious, charming, playful, and witty at first appearances. The woman is liquid charisma, and seems to have an infinite sort of patience when dealing with the petulant. Behind the screen, she is always planning: a careful loom artist, weaving webs of scenarios that will act in her greatest favor. She is not outwardly malignant, nor means any direct harm to most, but she will not spare favor for most if they stand between her and her ambition. True friends might see different treatment, but it has been quite a long time since the woman has ever endorsed real friendship. Overall, she is fairly unapologetic about the way she lives her life, and her internal confidence permeates the air around her.
  
  Virtues: High ideals, generally kind and well intentioned, generous in honest investment and helping others financially in certain situations. Has the ability to be fairly compassionate if someone earns her trust. Reasonably high confidence.
  
  Vices: Licentious, freely polygamous (considered a vice back in the day- NOT making a comment on its virtue OOCly), manipulative, can easily have a cruel streak and can elicit a quality of sadism bordering on evil if provoked in the right manner. Can have a hard time being empathetic and be fairly bullheaded on some issues.
  
  Addictions: None disclosed.
  
  Dominant or Submissive: Unyieldingly dominant. The furthest she willingly will compromise with this is to agree someone is equal to her.
  
  Likes: Socializing, cooking (only does this in private- no noble lady cooks for herself, right?!), enterprise and business, cutting deals, perfuming, sex, tobacco, hard liquor, high fashion, body modification, good fitting leather boots and shoes, showing skin, some Domina activities, chess.
  
  Dislikes: Submitting, wine, the drugs she sells, compromising on things she strongly believes, scuffing her boots, and prudes.
  
  Methods of Getting What She Wants: Carmen much prefers suggestion and subtle manipulation than outright demands. Think of her as the devil on your shoulder.
