SURVEY
WHAT IS YOUR CHARACTER'S SOCIOECONOMIC BACKGROUND? WHAT IS THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO WEALTH?:
Baela is from a royal family, of which money has always worked itself out for her family. She lived with her parents in Pentos as guests of a local Prince who hosted and funded their lives in her youth in exchange for the protection Daemon and Laena's dragons brought them. Then she grew up in Dragonstone with the rest of her family after the passing of her mother, an austere life but not lacking to care for all of Baela's needs without struggle. As such, Baela hasn't had to think difficultly about money. That doesn't mean she doesn't appreciate that there are others not as privileged as she is, but that doesn't negate that her upbringing was smooth enough for a young woman. As such, she tends to see money as something that will either work out or can be negotiated with transactional deals that her privilege grants her.
WHAT WOULD/DID YOUR CHARACTER MAJOR IN?:
Political science is the best answer here, but some sort of archery or other similar escapade should be an option as well. She likes to be well-rounded.
WHAT IS THE MOST INTERESTING THING THAT HAS HAPPENED TO YOUR CHARACTER?:
She has to name just one? A toss up between the day her dragon egg hatched and birthed forth Moondancer... or the day her life changed with the upsetting and traumatic death of her mother.
DESCRIBE YOUR CHARACTER USING ONE SONG FROM THE EARLY 2000S:
Help I'm Alive - Metric
NAME 1-3 VICES YOUR CHARACTER INDULGES IN:
Temper/Grudges - anything based in brash anger. Impulsivity.
WHAT IS YOUR CHARACTER'S LIQUOR OF CHOICE?:
Any good wine, but white wine goes well with seafood which she has a fondness for.
HOW DOES YOUR CHARACTER LIKE THEIR EGGS?:
If she has to choose, sunny side up is quite nice. But she's really not picky, so long as the eggs are well-prepared however they're served. Please don't ask her to prepare them herself.
IF YOUR CHARACTER HAD TO DRINK SOMEONE'S DIRTY BATHWATER, WHO WOULD IT BE AND WHY?:
Jacaerys. He's her betrothed. What more elaboration do you need than that she is devoted to him and would do anything for him? If her Queen called for it, though, she wouldn't hesitate to drink the bathwater of Rhaenyra Targaryen. It wouldn't be her natural instinct to do so, but she wouldn't refuse and would do so without a second thought if the Queen requested it. After all, she trusts Rhaenyra.
