She gives you speeches. She gives them head.

You gently tried to stop her from following him into the back bedroom at the party, but you couldn’t. And she made a show of it too. She made sure people could see her going in with him and leaving you behind.

Now the deed was done and to your everlasting horror she exits the room 20 minutes later with (ample) evidence of her infidelity. She cheated on you…. with that cocky jerk from the party who (you thought) you both hated. Now it’s her intention to walk straight through the party and out the front door with you in tow, sporting her viscous trophy proudly! You try to remind yourself that this is necessary as the blood rushes to your face and the sound of the party is dwarfed by the thump of your own beating heart. She’s right, you tell yourself over and over: The only way to beat the patriarchy is to destroy the hold that monogamy has on society. You know this will send a huge message to everyone who witnesses it. You’re also pretty sure that ‘the patriarchy’ will all be knocking on your girls door soon, and that this battle is only just begun.

Biography -

Deametis was found by a convoy of Demon soldiers after she had been left in the forest to die of starvation. She was no older than three, had no memory of what happened before she came to be there, and was brought back to HagaFosiel, where Lord Tarac made sure she was looked after properly. Six years later, having grown up almost as if she was Tarac’s child, Deametis had a run in with Ream Toalk, who informed the Demonlord Varamadras that she was a magician and a Dark Soul. The years had gone by so fast, she was a girl at court, where few children held their home, since the city was never the safest place, and Lords always talked about the best way to escape back to Yartihn. Suddenly a life she had known, had to be left behind. The orphaned WoodElf was thus taught in the way of the DracoMancers, and graduated under Bastivan Nowell.

At HagaFosiel Deametis lived like the rich kids, she was woken in the morning by servants, who brought her breakfast while in her room, and she dined with the Lords and Ladies of HagaFosiel. She learned from the books in the biggest library of the world, and had an important man as her adoptive father. She had a life worth living, and that changed when she was sent to join the DracoMancers, most importantly because she saw her father even less than she already did. It was all so different from what she was used to. She had to make friends, which was hard, had to work in groups, which was harder. But she managed, taking a lot of time off to be on her own when she felt like she couldn’t breathe anymore.

Personality -

She likes to manipulate those around her into doing things for her, like she managed to at HagaFosiel, where she was a child all alone in a great castle. She still thinks of Tarac as her father, though she is aware of her heritage. Though most of the Mancers respect the Demonlord, Deametis has a hard time finding in him what others do. She’s very patient when it comes to making friends or getting what she desires, allowing herself to think that not everyone is up on their feet in no time. Even if she’s always hanging around others, making them do things for her, she’s also very reserved, and takes a long while on choosing who she wants to be friends with, which on a daily bases has become a kind of a hobby. Alike Tarac, Deametis has no last name, since no orphans in the Demonlands are given last names. She sometimes simply calls herself Deametis Tarac. 

Deametis shares a father-daughter relationship with Tarac, who has accepted her as his own. She very proud of this, since around the Mancers her adoptive father is well known. She has befriended Gearett Toss, who’s easily manipulated, Milian Zarkof, Juvion Modord and Dynas Soaro, since they like to hang around girls, and Maia Anthousa Fortuin and Darqa Castcar, with whom she shares a popular circle. Her main goal at the moment is to win some favor with Orractous Darfoe, but he doesn’t make it easy for her. 

Fate -

Unknown

Connections -

Tarac ❖ Tarac found her when she was younger, and he always looks out for her, no matter how much she would tell him she could look out for herself. However, she is proud of him for who he is, what he has accomplished with the fact that he is not a warrior nor a Magician. He will always amaze her.

Gearett Toss ❖ Through manipulation she has managed to become friends with Gearett Toss, who she wants to keep close because he’s important and well know. Beside her popular circle, she wants to be friends with more important people. Gearett is a step in the right direction.

Milian Zarkof ❖ Milian will never cease to flirt with her, and while she knows he doesn’t do this because he’s really into her, she enjoys his attention. It is through Darqa that they became friends, and as long as they are both friends with Darqa, Deametis will never give Milian any reason to hate her.

Juvion Modord ❖ Deametis finds Juvion rather funny, he’s patriotic and a Demon nonetheless. She thinks he’s perfect for Darqa, and likes to listen to his jokes. Her guesses are that if Darqa is the most popular girl among the Mancers, than Juvion is the most popular guy among them, meaning she will have to stay friends with him.

Dynas Soaro ❖ Deametis likes Dynas even more. For one he doesn’t flirt with him, and he’s always straight to the point, the second is that he knows more than any of them. He will find out whatever is amiss with the Elite, he will grant her the best gossip, and she’ll never have to ask him for information, because he already knows what she wants to hear.

Darqa Castcar ❖ Darqa and Deametis share their cruel nature, their love for gossip, and their need to connect with people. They have been friends for a long time, and they are like sisters to each other, counting Maia into that equation. She had never decided to become friends with Darqa, if the girl hadn’t invited her in first.

Maia Anthousa Fortuin ❖ Becoming friends with Darqa meant meeting and eventually ending up loving Maia, a girl to her heart. The three of them make the cruelest and meanest bunch around town. They love their gossip, their guys, and especially the fact that they are all ambitious to reach some kind of goal.
