appearance » Her hair is a dark shade of brown, and she likes it long and straight just like her mother. She braids it often or ties it in a ponytail. Her eyes are a warm shade of amber which she got from her father. She is all legs and arms and has a thin figure, which she admits is useful when sneaking around and climbing tall buildings because she has a better reach. She has lean muscles that allow her a good equilibrium but not a lot of raw physical strenght. 

style » Stella enjoys wearing leather as she find out she can easily move and always has a sort of cape covering her head and hiding her face. She finds herself enjoying white because it's the colors of the buildings, and she's so good no one could see her even if she was wearing bright pink. Back in her robin hood days she would wear darker colors as she wasn't as experienced with sneaking around.

" The White Cat was here, wasn't I? "

" I'm the most honest thief you've ever seen."

PERSONALITY Traits » Free-spirited, Blunt, Cheerful, Revengeful, Confident

personality » Raised an orphan with a family of dozens and dozens of thieves in the form of the Guild, Stella's education was, let's say, peculiar. She was taught how to lockpick before she could walk and was thrown in the air enough as an infant to never fear accrobatics. Soon enough Stella was a bright child who could easily get along with everyone and know everyone. She is free-spirited and care little for the rules, which she constantly break without any regard for thos who uphold the law. A very energetic and mischievious girl, Stella can often be seen sneaking around and casing a house for her next grand heist. Stella enjoys pranks and doesn't stop herself from stealing from her fellow thieves friends, only as a joke, though. Those she'll always give back. She also never hides from the truth which led her to say she was the most honest thief in Kalsem about herself.

Stella is a bit egocentric and confident in her abilities. She believes she is one of the best, and her pride lets her take challenges from other thieves. She calls herself the youngest Queen and the thief prodigy and often boast that no one is better in her trade than herself. A good spirit, she is able to laugh about herself and is often the life of the party with her impossible stories she always tweak. She enjoys making things a tad more dramatic. She likes to make fun of people, often sneaking on true but embarassing comment about someone. Always with a smile when she is not at work, she suddenly becomes very serious during one of her missions. She rarely works in team, mostly because no one ever asks her. If she likes someone, though, she will not mindlending a hand.

 

Generally nice, she genuinely wants the best for everyone she likes and she likes the whole Guild, considering it her family. She will always forgive her family but never those who harm it. Stella is not forgiving of one particular thing: traitors. If you cross her in any way, Stella will do her best to make your life a living hell. From small pranks (frogs in your bed, poison ivy in your clothes) to bigger pranks (framing you for the thief of something and getting you arrested) she can do it. Youngjae was one a victim of the poison ivy in his shirt after he broke a promise he made to Stella when they were kids. Because she finds it so hard to forgive and forget, Stella's anger toward her father will probably never subside and is what fuels her to become better each day. She hopes of one day when she get caught, if she ever gets caught, to tell him exactly whose daughter she is and ask if he is proud of her before escaping.


trivias » Stella's favorite thing ever is the starry night sky. Not because of her name, but because to her, stars are the only shiny things she will never steal, not that she wants to. She thinks they are okay right there were they are. For that reason she dislikes cloudy nights during which the stars are hidden. Stella is especially good at tumbling and doing parcours. Sometimes she'll throw a little extra jump or pirouette because she knows someone is watching. Stella who was raised by thieves is not the most ladylike person you could find. In fact, she must be pretty low in the list. Stella's favorite things also include warm soup, the kind Youngjae's mother would make her after a harsh day of training. Stella likes to run out of town to the nearest lake or source and bathe out in the open, under the starlit sky. She know it isn't polite, and has been told off a few times, but Stella enjoys pointing at things and people. She is a very dramatic-inclined person who enjoys putting even more emphasis on the things she is doing. Stella's eyes and eyebrow are very expressive and you can usually see the whole spectrum of her emotions on her face. She is a night owl, prefering to rise in the early afternoon (2-3pm) and go to bed in the early morning (5-6am). It helps that her job is mostly a night shift. That is why you will never see Stella up around 8am at the breakfast table. That won't stop her from eating breakfast, though, as it is her favorite meal of the day. Picture the table at 6pm in the Guild, with people eating their dinner and Stella just back from her first round of training, eating eggs and toasts like it's nobody's business. Sometimes all of her day's meals are breakfast. Another thing Stella enjoys is heights. She just feel that much closer to the sky. She is often found climbing trees or resting on the highest roof. A very social animal, Stella doesn't like being alone. She has lived all her life surrounded by the whole Guild and she gets really bored and antsy when left on her own. Which is why the best way of dealing with Stella when she is annoying is probably to ignore her. Stella is not the best thief in the guild, that is for sure. But somehow, most people that are better than her are just too busy to try to knock her down a peg. Besides, every one knows you need to take Stella with a smile, rather than be offended. But everybody can nonetheless agree she is very good at what she does. Despite her youth, she is as talented as someone twice her age. You'd expect someone is making the cards for her, but Stella does it herself. She finds it relaxing. And the guild is a little bit upset she always leaves a dagger on the scene. They think it's a waste, which is why Stella sometimes has to go get it back from the police office. She mostly uses it for bigger heists to try not to waste her cards and dagger too much.

 

What made me who I am.

background » Child of a courtesan and Kalsem's King, Stella's life could have taken a very different turn had her mother not decided that she didn't want her child to have a similar life as her. Giving birth to her in secret from the public, Violet Belladona instead entrusted her baby to the thieves guild, knowing they would keep her safe from her father who could have wanted her death had he heard of her existence. Growing up raised by thieves, Stella quickly learned the ropes and just how hard she had to work to survive. Without any clue as to who her parents were, Stella didn't have a last name and was simply known as Stella the cat. When she got older, she chose to be a Robin Hood and steal from the riches to give to the poor. Some years of experience taught her that she needed to be careful who she chose to give back to, as some weren't as trustworthy or who they pretended to be. After one particular heist ended up in a pursuit through the capital city, Stella ended up pleading to the courtesan guild to hide her before she got arrested. Amidst the women who hid her, then, one instantly looked familiar to Stella. It was the very same face she was looking at in the mirror, only many years older and more mature. When Stella asked if they were related, Violet didn't dare deny it and they spent the evening talking about the event that had led to her birth and what had happened after. Stella learned of her true lineage: she was a bastard child of the king. A father that would have killed her had he known of her existence. That is when she swore to herself that she would take revenge of the royalty by becoming the best thief she could ever be. She trained even more with some of the best masters in the guild and finally reached the level and age required for her to become a queen. She was already renowned enough in the guild for starting at such a young age, but now it was time for the rest of the kingdom to know her too. She enjoyed the irony of her title. Queen. She officially adopted her mother's last name and made her card a cat symbol. She usually stabs it with a dagger on the scene of the crime. It looks like a normal white playing card with her symbol and the letter Q in the corner. On the back of the card, there is a red maze, her way of saying "You can look for me but you won't find me". Most of Stella's jobs are stealing from the nobility/upper class because she believe they can live with it, something she retains from her Robin Hood days.

 

family » Her mother is Violet Belladonna, one of the favorite courtesan of the King. During one of his visit, Violet became pregnant with a daughter at only 20 years old. The king still visits her sometimes, although he nowadays enjoys the favors of younger courtesans too. 

 

friends/rivals » Stella's best friend is Yoo Youngjae, who she considers her personal informant. They are the same age and grew up together. They are always seen bickering in the guild but once on the streets are both very professionals. Stella received her training from Lee Donghae, 30 years old, one of the better Night Walkers. He used to be a King but prefered to walk the shadows and the unknown. He is also one of the few who raise Stella.

 

It's dangerous to get too close.

Personality Traits » Calm, Patient, Smart, Organized

personality » While Stella lives in the stars, Youngjae's domain is the earth. A calm a patient person, he is the kind to be able to wait for something he knows will be worth it. Easily the brains behind every of Stella successful thefts, he stays humble and lets her take all the credit. A good friend, warm and caring, Youngjae was raised in a family that always showed him affection which he will give back to those he likes. Incredibly smart, Youngjae finds it easy to read people and he know when to talk and when not to. He believes in a plan, and sometimes Stella's improvisation when something unplanned arrives makes him sweat.  He will always tell her that she made him lose 5 years of his life and she always retorts that if that were true, with all the times he said it before he would be already dead. Despite his line of work and the fact he is usually a calm and collected individual, he can get restless when things fall out of plan. A natural born pessimist, Youngjae's way of dealing with his nerves is to take into account every possibility. It only makes it worse when something doesn't go right. Stella finds it quite enjoyable to push his buttons and see the serious Youngjae turn into a nervous wreck. Youngjae has a very restrained circle of trust and easily doubts people's motives. It is difficult to earn his trust because his job has made him very wary of people who only strive for themselves. He also finds it difficult to express his own feelings, as he is more used to talking about facts. 

 

first meeting » They first met when they were children barely able to speak, at the Thieves Guild building. Coming from a family of informants, Youngjae was bound by fate to follow the same path. Youngjae's family helped Stella whenever she was feeling down or lonely. They grew up together and are childhood friends. They learned their trade together, they failed their missions together, they were practically inseparable.

 

interactions » They like to bicker like children. They will make bets about who can drink more or who can win at darts game and they are both highly competitive when it comes to each others. They often sleep in the same room, sometimes in the same bed although it is innocent, because they are that close. There is a real relationship built on trust because out in the field, outside the guild, if Stella doesn't trust Youngjae's information she is done for and if Youngjae doesn't trust Stella will succeed, he can put her mission in jeopardy. It always impress people how they can be like two alley cats when they are together in the guild, but how they are so detached and trusting of the other when it comes to jobs. Youngjae likes Stella as more than just a friend, but he is willing to wait for her to see him the same way.
