Skills/Talents:
Girl of Many Tongues – Having grown up in many different countries, Arissa had quite a knack for learning languages. She’s fluent in Greek, French, and Italian. Her German, English, and Swedish is functional at best. She’s learning Japanese, but it still needs improvement. Lately picking up languages has been more difficult than it used to be when she was younger.

Silver Tongue – Arissa can be wickedly insightful and is always willing to tell someone exactly what they want to hear. She can almost always find some way to compliment someone at the drop of a hat. She speaks in a soft, et melodic tone that draws you in close to her.

Backpack Contents:

• Various Accessories: For when you want to change the little things!
• Change of Clothes: One for a fashionable run, and one for just running!
• Self-Defense Kit: Spray Can of Deodorant mixed with lemon juice, a set of sharpened keys, and if all else fails, a very high-pitched whistle. Because every fragile flower has to protect herself, no?

Digivice: Gold and White Digivice ic

Personality:
Selectively Driven: Arissa doesn’t know the meaning of the word “restraint”. When allowed she goes on until she’s physically unable to, and only rests so she can get back out to her own devices. Due to her pampered upbringing she believes that life is but a series of pleasures and is always eager to move onto the next.

Always Eager to Please: Despite her social status, Arissa is almost desperate for the same attention that she gives to other people. As such, she’s willing to bend over backwards if it means pleasing someone. Despite her social status she’s willing to get down and dirty in order to help someone – until she loses interest in whomever she’s helping.

Intimidatingly Intimate: She shows very little concern for paltry things like personal boundaries. When in a casual setting she’s typically uncomfortable unless she’s touching someone or at least close enough to feel their warmth. Even though many people can get uncomfortable from this it makes it all the more important for her to help them get used to this.

Passion Comes: Arissa is an incredibly passionate girl unfortunately mistakes her need for people’s affection for genuine attraction. As such, she’s easily infatuated with other people. Gender or body type make no difference for her; if she finds someone interesting, she gets especially attached to them. Sometimes she’ll fall for multiple people at once, but she isn’t particularly bothered by it. Though she’s aware this trait makes her seem… intensely flirtatious, but she doesn’t let that perception people have of her bother her. It’s just how she is.

Passion Goes: Due to her upbringing, however, she knows that for her, all relationships, however one-sided, will come to an end eventually. So just as easily as she gets smitten by someone’s eccentricities so too does she lose her passion after a short amount of time. For many people she meets, you’ll be her best friend for a day, then just another name on her contacts list after a week. That isn’t to say such passions can’t be easily rekindled, however, but she no longer takes it personally when someone she meets never contacts her again.

Passion for Everyone: Arissa doesn’t just use wicked talents just for herself. She encourages everyone she meets to let loose and see where their vices take them. When in large groups, this can lead her to urge two apparently compatible people to try and hook up. 

Lover, not a Fighter: Despite her graceful demeanor and sweet words, Arissa can be quite clumsy. She absolutely abhors physical labor, not for the effort that she must exert, but because something always seems to go wrong whenever she tries to apply herself. She would much prefer to stand back and let someone more capable handle the work. After all, it only helps her maintain the “dainty flower” persona she’s built up.

Appearance: According to Arissa herself, she has “A voice like honey, the face of an innocent angel, and the legs of a goddess. But that is it.” Her styles of clothing can be a bit showy, but she sees any beauty she has as a gift that must be shared with the world. Modesty is not a concern when picking clothes. She keeps her hair rather simple medium-length, but she does like to use it to frame her face. She can be admittedly eccentric in her choice of fashion, as she enjoys wearing the odd accessory or two. Also, she staunchly refuses to wear high-heels. Not since the tragedy of her thirteenth birthday.


FaceClaim: FIRE EMBLEM • mist • Arissa Elodie Moreau

Personal History: Arissa is the daughter of a French ex-supermodel and an affluent Italian investor. While she was born in Athens, Arissa never really remembered living there when she was a small child. Her parents were affluent and eccentric, so they moved around seemingly on a whim. At the age of four the three moved to Marseilles, France. At seven she lived in Munich, Germany. At nine it was Toronto, Ontario. At eleven New York City. At twelve Stockholm. At fourteen Venice. At sixteen Paris. For Arissa’s entire life she never truly had enough time to get close with anyone around her age. It would be expected if Arissa were unable to make friends and keep to herself. But Arissa always loved doing the unexpected.

She was the only daughter of some rather… eccentric people, and the girl learned to make do. While she never truly got to know many other kids deeply, the sheer number of different kids among different cultures she met expanded her perceptions. She would never be extremely popular simply because she was always an outsider, but she came to realize that no matter what culture you’re in there are things that every human socially craves regardless of their society. And Arissa became adept at pointing out and fulfilling those needs. Be it a compliment, a passionate embrace, even a simple pat on the back, Arissa quickly found out how to quickly warm up to other people, and even become close enough to fall in love.

But of course, she also had to learn to deal with the heartbreak of separation, but as she matured into the young woman she is today she has learned to deal with that as well. She looks onto the past relationships she’s had not with mourning but fond remembrance on the pleasant times she had the pleasure of experience, and the hopes of making more.

But life does not always throw you pleasant things. Freshly seventeen, she was abducted and held as a ransom to her affluent parents. Thankfully she was able to be rescued before any harm came to her, but the incident terrified her parents. They were not comfortable with their living situation, but she decided that she was planning to live on her own, regardless. So, her parents flew her to Japan, where she lives alone but under the protection of a translator/bodyguard; a circumstance the young woman finds stifling at present.

But Arissa plans to make the most of her new circumstances. In order not to draw attention she's not able to live nearly as extravagantly as she used to, but ultimately she believes she can make. Plus it's a chance to meet new and interesting people. After all, when life gives to lemons, you should slice it in half, and find someone to suck on it together, no?

Digimon Name: Le Papillon (Paps)
Default Form: Morphomon
Gender: Male (Genderless, but assigned Male by Arissa)
Alignment: Neutral
Skills/Talents:
Cool and Calm - Paps is highly skilled at maintaining his composure under any circumstance. He has an unflinching poker face. 

Pollinating - For some reason, Paps gets the urge to go out and pollinate flowers like a normal butterfly. And because he has no idea how to do this, he ends up sprinkling his magic butterfly dust to cause plants to grow and mutate into bizarre, but ultimately harmless forms.

Holosuit:

Personality: Cool, calm, collected... That's what everyone sees when they meet this cool blue butterfly. And to an extent, that perception is correct. Paps is a mature Digimon that values respect, honor, and duty, but deep down this noble exterior lies the heart of a painter.

Unfortunately, his aesthetic choices have caused others to believe that he's either untalented, or hopelessly misguided. But this doesn’t bother Paps at all in the slightest, as he insists that his art is simply ahead of its time and will simply tell their critics, “True beauty comes from a patient heart.” Whether or not it’s just an excuse or not is still a mystery.

Choosing to hang out with Paps means having a great deal of patience. He's not a quick thinker, nor is he a conversationalist. Everything he says or does has some significance to a degree, and sometimes it takes him a while to respond to even simple questions. He's always thinking on some grand scale, like his choice of ice cream flavor creates some kind of unseen cosmic consequence further into his life. But once Paps decides on his ice cream flavor (Blue Moon, always), you can be sure that it’s his final answer.
