ID: SD402
Name: Emery
Suit: Hearts
Rank: Ace
Gender: Male
Animal: Vermin (Chipmunk)/Bird (Fisher Bird)
Region: Villa en Miir/Highlands
Dealer: Callypso (Gifted by Xenon <3)
Notes: His parents sold him to a neighbor in Corvistowne who raised him like a little brother until she died of a sudden overdose of painkillers.
He's got a knack for street smarts and a good bit of biology and chemistry, but likes to let others buy him food.
Currently, he's living with a Highland family in the nicer areas of the Capitol, playing "cute" for the family's little girl, he'll move on whenever he feels too crowded, or if he gets picked at. His word reads "Just" in Blue.

Highlands: Residents are usually white with swirls of gold and red slash-like markings. Some can have either one marking or the other instead of both, but that is a rare happening.
Many consider the Highlands to be the most beautiful Realm in the world to date. Lush, rolling meadows, rich fields, thin stretches of forest, distant mountains, and quaint brooks make the Highlands one of the most respected and idolized Realms in which to work and trade. The residents of the Highlands tend to hold themselves in equally high regard and they are often respected, no matter the rank, if that is where they hail from. It is rumored that those from the Highlands are destined for greatness, and they are often groomed from birth to think so. The Highlands actually border the Courts and even overlap a bit into the Court of Hearts. Many have regarded the Hearts Court as the Highland Court for quite some time, though others have ruled there. Those of the Highlands rarely leave and will often sneer at the thought of breeding with anything other than another Highlander, though they have been known to deign to make love to Avingtons and Yarrows without too much fuss. Highlanders tend to despise those who hail from the Lowlands, as indeed many do, with nearly as much hatred as the Josggiy Marsh dwellers, despising the vague tie to them as “counterparts”. Also, according to the research of one Bernard, all Highlanders are allergic to sunflower oil to some degree.

Villa en Miir: Residents are usually a light violet with pink and dark blue in complex, thin, script-like markings.
The Villa en Miir is a cliff-side realm with beautiful residents and scenery. They reside on the rocky crags that spring up above Corvistowne, though they tend to detest the unsavory and scatter-brained group that lives below them. The Villa is literally carved into the rock face and those visiting usually request a guide to help ensure they don't tumble off the face of the realm. Trees grow over the side of the crags and give the impression that the Villa en Miir is just a forest growing out of a mountainside, though the constant strain of music that drifts down tells you otherwise. They are fond of jewelry and have a few mines of their own, chiefly diamond, emerald, ruby, and opal; these are constantly exported to the Courts. The residents of the Villa are viewed by most Realms as being quite lovely and they apply themselves to this image. They will often adorn themselves with one stone of choice, usually given to them by their mother once they reach a certain age. Those of the Villa tend to be musical or in some other way artistic, and they dearly love plays, paintings, and concerts. Villa residents do not dislike other realms, but they have a hard time respecting those who don’t appreciate their art. They are often whimsical and love a good story, though they are intelligent and enjoy haughty conversation as much as the next Highlander. The script on the body of a Villa will often dictate an aspect of their personality, though it can be interpreted in many ways. Parents will often agonize over a child’s words and try to see them in the best light before explaining them to their children in order to give them a better spin on their personality…though it doesn’t always work.

Vermin: Vermin are easy to locate and, even though their name may bring other thoughts, they are generally quite sweet and docile. They live anywhere that food is plentiful and tend to stay away from the Selkie Lakes. They usually look like rats or mice, though gerbils are not unheard of.
Birds: Birds are seen fairly often across the Realms. They are a far cry from hard to find, yet slightly rarer than a Feline or Canine. They are usually found outside of the Marshes, which they tend to despise, and will often roost in the Highlands until chased out by the residents. Birds can be anything from predatory to a common sparrow.

Heart: The Claw
Hearts are a bit rarer in society, and are also the most revered. For parents to receive a Heart as a child is a blessing and a delight, as the child will probably bring them power that they do not have. The ferocity and short temper of the Suit is legendary, but not necessarily true for all in the Suit. Hearts have a tendency towards recklessness and wildness in their actions, though their ability to muster power at the snap of their fingers is most assuredly true and remarkable. It serves them well as the most feared and respected of the Suits.
The symbol of the Hearts, the Claw, is most fitting, as there is nothing more brutal than to be hit in the face with something sharp; be it their wit, their magic, or their fist, the experience won't be pleasant. Hearts tend to delight in the fact that they are represented as ruthless and unkind. Some of them feel that power cannot truly be gained with kindness, though others resent the fact that their friendships are all superficial and that their lovers are all two-faced. They may attempt to make themselves seem different.

Ace: Aces are seen as the degenerates of society. They are beneath even the meanest Club and some parents, upon receiving one, are so horrified that they kill them at once. Aces will never possess magical abilities, never be able to rise above their rank, and never be able to attain a Human form. Aces are not respected by anyone and even some members of other Courts, such as the Cats and Jacks, feel that it is beneath them to speak to an Ace as an individual. Aces do the most repugnant jobs and are frowned upon by all. Most Aces tend not to recognize Suits, as an Ace is an Ace and everyone treats them like dirt, but occasionally an Ace of Hearts or Diamons will attempt to lord that small status over other Aces.
Aces can only breed with other Aces, though an Ace can result from any breeding.
