Personality answers:

What does your character think about physical appearances? Are they the sort to meticulously primp themselves, or could they not care less?

- Navia is the picture perfect example of a Fontanian lady. She is dressed to the nines, not one hair out of place. She cares about her physical appearance, and takes pride in it, but also doesn't mind getting her hands dirty. As a child, she would run around in dirt and grime in her silk dresses and be all too happy about it. She keeps herself maintained to keep the right image for Spina di Rosula - fancy dress, hair in curls, jewels on her hat and clothes. She is the face that everyone sees, and so that is the face that she puts forth. That won't stop her from getting her hands dirty though - if she wouldn't do something, she won't ask the people under her to do it. She doesn't judge by appearances, however, because that isn't fair to anyone.


What would your character say is their best trait? What is truly their best trait?

- Navia would say that he best trait is her determination. She's determined to see the truth in everything, determined to solve every problem that comes her way, determined to help everyone she can. To her, there are problems you can fix immediately, and problems that just take a bit of time to solve. She wants people to see that she is dedicated to whatever cause she is fighting that day, and that she is determined to fight whatever injustices that may come their way.

In reality, Navia's best trait is her eternal optimism. While yes, her determination is great, her ability to see the brighter side of every bad thing that's happened is what has caused her to succeed. So much has happened to her in such a short amount of time - she's lost both of her parents: her mother in childbirth and her father in a duel that he sacrificed himself in. At one point she lost her then best-friend, and she's lost two of her closest confidants. She's gained her best friend back, and she's gained new friends since then. She's cleared her father's name, helped those that needed helping, all the while saying that bad things may happen, but keeping a weather eye on the horizon is what lifts spirits.


What is your character's biggest ambition at their current canon point? To what lengths would they go to see it to fruition?

- Navia's biggest ambition at her canon point is to live up to her father's legacy. She's become the definitive head of Spina di Rosula and she's cleared his name of any wrong-doing in the eyes of the law. She's been able to help save the people of Fontaine from a prophecy that would have killed them all. There's still part of her, however, that thinks she's not doing enough for everyone. That she's not good enough to step into her father's shoes and lead Spina like it should be. She's still learning the ropes as it were, and while people around her will say she's doing a good job, it's not stopping her from feeling that way. While ideally she'd go through every length to make this possible, in reality she's just trying to do the best she can for everyone.


What is justice to your character? How important is it to them?

- Being from the nation of law and justice, it is a huge part of her life. The courtroom is a massive show to them, an opera of defendants, prosecutors, and witnesses performing a show in front of the grand Iudex. Navia has learned how to work the law to her favor, having Spina di Rosula help Fontaine's law-bearing body with cases and finding criminals that might think they are above the law. She's also provided her assistance as a lawyer to Tartaglia when he was on trial, and helped bring to justice the man who killed several women in Fontaine - which in turn helped clear her own father's name of a crime he was unjustly tried for. Navia feels that everyone has a right to a fair trial, and that they shouldn't suffer under the law.

Justice may be blind, and Navia supports that. All are equal in the eyes of justice.

Inventory: Her Geo vision, her Gunbrella (a large parasol that has a gun built within), Verdict (her axe-like claymore), a picture of her parents
Powers/Abilities:

- Navia is an Allogene, who is a person from her world with particularly powerful desires who have the potential to ascend to Celestia to become gods themselves. Allogenes who accomplish their goals will cause the gods to receive an abundant gift, while a person deprived of their Vision will lose that ambition, which would cause them to undergo a massive change in personality.

- Vision bearers also have some level of elemental sensitivity and Elemental Sight. Visions themselves can also resonate with other sources of elemental energy, which causes them to glow. They can resist being in a yaksha's presence for long periods of time without being severely affected by their karmic debt, can withstand being in the Withering Zones of Sumeru, and are capable of breathing underwater in the waters of Fontaine.

- Navia is deceptively strong, able to wield large swords called Claymores, as well as have fast reflexes.

- Navia was bestowed a Geo Vision, which allows her to manipulate and channel Geo (think of geokinesis). This allows Navia the following abilities:

* generating crystal shards that allow a form of elemental shield around the holder

* Ceremonial Crystalshot: She fires bullets of elemental Geo energy from her gunbrella that can penetrate opponents. periodically, a surging blade will be summoned to do damage as well.

* As the Sunlit Sky's Singing Salute: She releases a massive canon bombardment on opponents in front of her, dealing damage and providing cannon fire support for a duration after.

Player Goals: Putting Navia into a world where hardly anyone knows her was one of the biggest draws. Back home in Fontaine, Navia and the Spina di Rosula are household names, and she uses that to her advantage to help people. If she's going to help people here, then she's going to need to make a name for herself and not rely on the legacy of her family name.

Plus, the Genshin cast is one of the best and I am dying to play with all of them.
