Role

Chapter 8

Viera is obsessed with status. She wants to be the best, she wants to be
paid obeisance by as many people as possible. She loves being flattered,
especially by people she deems as high-status.

Related to this, Viera is also very vain. She likes owning and using
ostentatious clothing, equipment, books, anything. Status symbols are a
great favourite of hers. She tends to bring them up in conversations to
show that she is somebody important and rich. She also pays quite great
attention to her physical appearance, with both fashion and grooming.

Viera feels no attachment to her parents because she feels like she has
outgrown them in importance and status. She did just her duty in rescuing
them from a bad life, because it was better not to be considered a
traitor to one's own parents by society.

On the other hand, for persons she thinks are important, she will go to
great lengths to maintain good relationships with them. She might not
come across as sycophantic just because fire giants are terrible at it,
but from her actions and choices it will be clear that she is constantly
sucking up to her higher-ups, hoping one day to reach their status.

Although Viera loves sucking up to the higher-ups, she will nevertheless
try to reach power equal or higher to them. Upon which, she will find
someone else even higher up to impress. If she becomes the highest one,
then she will still have her God above her to obey and please.

Viera will lie about her family to people that she thinks she can fool.
She will pretend to be the scion of a noble family.

Viera owes an oath to the Black Sect. While this is not such a strong oath
as to make her potentially Anathema, she thinks that Daran Frostspear will
hunt her down if she does not return to the Black Sect.
