Physical Attributes

Kyth is a young woman, twenty-two years of age, though she is frequently mistaken as much younger. She stands at a mere four feet tall, and though her body is fully developed, her ubiquitous cream-colored coat and the baggy clothing she tends to wear underneath frequently conceal that fact.

Her heart-shaped face, delicate features and sparkling green eyes likewise add to the appearance of youth. The small woman's hair is cut short for the sake of convenience, though she keeps it clipped in a pageboy bob for the sake of style.

Despite the fact that Kyth is an immigrant from another planet, she is human, or at least so close to it that it makes virtually no difference. Her height is not influenced by this, as she was apparently considered just as short on her homeworld as she is here. The only difference identified thus far is a slight deviation in brain chemistry that manifests itself in the way her body processes alcohol. Specifically, alcohol does not act as a true intoxicant for her, but rather an aphrodisiac, and a fairly powerful one at that. For this reason, she very rarely drinks it.

Personality

Kyth is outgoing and very inquisitive. Though she tends to dress quite professionally, even severely, there is something undeniably childlike in her demeanor. Part of this my be her overabundance of nervous energy...she seems incapable of standing still for any length of time, always bouncing and pacing about. Even when sitting she'll be fiddling with something or shifting position, as if eager to be up and moving again.

Kyth is very friendly, though at times she can be quite naive about social relationships, possibly indicating a sheltered life. Likewise, she can at times be very thoughtless and selfish. However, this is a trait she is trying to improve, and will react with true contrition if she's called on it. She has an excellent sense of humor, ready to laugh about almost anything. She'll even enjoy the occasional crack about her short stature, so long as nobody's being deliberately hurtful or derogatory.

When it comes to problems, Kyth has a direct and logical way of looking at things. When faced with a dilemma, she would prefer to tackle it head on in the most efficient means possible. At times, this can be a good quality, though if the problem is of a delicate nature she sometimes forgets that this approach can lead to hurt feelings.

Essentially, Kyth will usually find herself in the middle of things, despite not always knowing what to do or remembering how she got there in the first place.

History

Kyth is quite free with the fact that she comes from another world, assuming (usually correctly) that the inhabitants of Yuriba will take such information in stride. However, she has thus far proved unwilling to share any specific details of her life before arriving on Earth.

Abilities and Interests

Undeniably, Kyth is something of a mechanical genius. Her particular passion is with clockwork. The minute precision and delicate dance of springs and cogs is a source of soothing beauty and peace to her...indeed, despite her usual ebullient energy she can sit contentedly at her work bench for hours, her concentration wholly occupied with tiny adjustments to her latest project. She is currently making tentative plans to open a shop for her creations.

Though she doesn't draw particular attention to it, she has some expertise in more scientifically advanced fields as well, such as mathematics and physics. Magic tends to make her nervous. She has nothing against those who choose to use it, but she finds much greater comfort in what she feels are the more solid and less unpredictable realms of science.

Kyth also has interests less technical in nature. She is always eager for an opportunity to go dancing or skating. Additionally, she is in the process of learning how to draw, though her early forays into the field indicate that this will probably be a very long process.

Pinion

Pinion is Kyth's most treasured creation and constant companion. It seems difficult to believe that the tiny bronze sparrow is merely a collection of gears, given his ability to fly and his undeniable intelligence. But when pressed on the point, Kyth will generally just smile and attest that his construction "wasn't easy."

The little bird has a very distinct personality. He likes shiny objects, particularly golden ones, and is also attracted to hair, which he likes to preen. Thus, he'll frequently perch on someone's head without warning and tends to react indignantly when his creator chides him on his poor manners. He's quite vain and very susceptible to flattery. When someone seems to be feeling low, he'll usually try to do something to perk them up, even if that something is swiping a particularly shiny ornament from their person.

Relationships

Between her recent arrival and her attempts to adjust her schedule to the local time, Kyth hasn't had a chance to meet many people yet. She's been in Leona's on a few occasions, and has made some friendly contacts there.

Thus far, the only person she's been getting close to has been Nisa, a shy but very kind bunnygirl Kyth met soon after her arrival and has hit it off with famously since.
