Quote: "The Universe is full of mystery, your past is your history."
Mini Bio: Purple was born to be a Pristess, not only because it suited her but also because it was in the literal sense. She was raised among countless "sisters" and raised by other Pristesses. Purple didn't know why exactly she was raised as such but she instinctively knew she was always supposed to be a priestess. Purple has always been near her sisters, finally deciding to take her pilgrimage to a far away place. All pristesses take this pilgrimage, normally, when they first come of age. But Purple was a "rebel" and didn't go until decades later. Purple took this additional time to learn and grow the bit more she felt was needed. Since she left for her pilgrimage she has found so many unique people. She loves to be able to help them in their time of need. The deity that Purple prays to is a deity of healing, allowing her- just like her fellow pristesses- heal those in need. She can, much like Reiki, heal through energy and using her hands as the conduit gives the healing energy to the one in need. This is nothing overly special to the pristesses but is an incredible feat for those receiving the healing. She is able to mend fractured bones and bring health back to someone who is sick. It is a wonder to watch her heal.
Purple, however, doesn't just use her pilgrimage to heal, in fact it is a search for fellow pristesses. While her sisterhood does find their own pristesses, those on a pilgrimage are asked to find others to learn more from. This can be an internship like learning or a few day retreat to learn. Purple has done dozens of retreats and is looking for more to do with her life. She will never leave her priesthood but she knows life is about more than just learning from fellow pristesses. They are ready to spread their wings and fly. Purple has plenty of time in her life to learn from fellow sisters and instead is hoping to find a place she can take a break from being a pristess. While it is hard for her to imagine life without learning from sisters, they are excited to learn from her fellow spirit family and/or companion if she is the first companion. For Purple, helping others in the ways that she has shows she takes her livelihood seriously and would never take it for granted. Though there are times Purple has thought "what if" to the possibilities of having been a normal Forest Elf with a normal occupation. But those thoughts are quickly brushed away when she thinks about how amazing her life has been and how it will be more amazing with companionship.
In companionship, Purple is looking for someone who will see her for her and not the pristess or the healer. Someone who will see she is a unique individual who decorates her antlers just like the rest of the Forest Elves. She knows her companion will be gentle and caring and be someone who she can rely on no matter what. For her, it will be a home away from home, a safe place she can rest her head and with someone who is just as kindhearted as she is. In return, Purple would like to make her companion feel at home with her. Someone they can turn to when things get too rough. Be it minor or major, she wants to be there for you. She gifts her healing when it is needed and will never turn away a companion in need. She knows her more understanding nature would make her a rather easy person to get along with. Purple knows that she can help teach her companion easy healing techniques if they were keen to it, but would never force them to learn. She just offers her knowledge to help her companion or potential spirit family. For Purple, whatever she can do to help her companion is what she will do, she has fierce loyalty and is not afraid to show it.
