Galiena Maksimov is a 27-year-old married woman who has been presumed dead after going missing for 5 years. Once a perfect housewife enamored with her husband, Laszlo, Galiena's life turned dark.
Her idyllic marriage, filled with dreams of domestic bliss, was disrupted when they received an ornate, mysterious vase as a wedding gift. While Galiena was overjoyed, Laszlo felt puzzled by the anonymous sender. Despite their excitement, the vase soon became a harbinger of misfortune, plunging their once-perfect household into chaos.
Galiena, now isolated and unhinged, creates fabricated scenarios to cope with her deteriorating mental state, leading to aggressive tendencies. This internal conflict highlights her struggle to reconcile her past with her current reality, showing her shift from a hopeful romantic into a troubled soul lost in her fantasies.
Plot Hooks
- Galiena is a Howl Marken. She will seek out territory to claim as hers and is open to meeting other Marken (positive/neutral/negative relationships).
- Galiena is a romantic but is not romanceable. Please spiel about your character's relationships, drama or otherwise. In exchange, you will get somewhat delusional stories.
- Galiena is a trickster who wants friends but struggles to accept genuine friendship. Because she thinks everyone is lying to her, she lies here and there.
- Galiena is insane about her husband, Laszlo. If you're looking for narrative-driven combat roleplay, you can antagonize her by targeting her messy relationship or her views.
- Galiena sells dolls made of yarn and trinkets. Some of these will be cursed. If you want your character to be temporarily cursed, we can discuss it.
- Galiena is searching for her husband (semi-closed plotline) and the Greater Demon that haunted her. Open to bumping into other Spirits, Demons, or Demon-affiliated for conflict.
