+Personal Information+
Personality/Demeanor: Amaris is changeable, adaptable and almost mercurial in her moods. At work, and this is the most frequent face she shows to the world, she is witty and playful and social. She pretends to be personable but if one looks closely, it is all an elaborate act to distract the eye from who she really is. To family and very close friends Amaris is quieter and less outgoing, seeming to shed her cynical worldly shell. But mercurial or not, there are of course some constants in Amaris's personality. For one thing is is loyal to those she considers friends, and is always there to provide support or simply a kind ear. For another she has a soft spot for children, and they in turn have a knack for bringing out her nurturing side.

Strengths: At work, Amaris's ability to just plain listen works to her advantage.

She doesn't believe in things that she's told right off the bat, and will do her own research before deeming any piece of 'new' which comes from the grapevine true. She is also a whiz with children, they love her and she loves them in return.
Weaknesses/Flaws: Amaris's unflinching loyalty can and has been a problem. She will rush to the aid of any friend, and this is the only time that her inquisitive and cautions nature goes out the window. She will do anything she can for said friend even if it means bringing harm to herself.

+History+
Amaris was the product of a fling between two old flames. Being the person he is, her father was absent for a good chunk, or if not all of her childhood. Amaris was raised instead by her mother, Lilias, and it was in this time frame that it was discovered, to the relief of certain parties, that she took after her mother more than Cardinal. Basically, Amaris proved to be a very curious child and was always asking questions about this and that and everything else in between. And if these questions could not be answered by those she asked, Amaris would be even more determined to find the answers. As she got older, she took this independent route more and more finding that she rather enjoyed discovering things for herself instead of just asking around. From an inquisitive child, she evolved into one who was independent and perhaps a little stand offish. Whatever she discovered in her wanderings she kept to herself.
When the time to choose a House rolled around Amaris choose the House of Faire, both attracted and inspired by it's beauty and because she thought it romantic to follow in the footsteps of a crush. It was a youthful choice and not entirely the right one on Amaris's part. She soon found herself mixing with the darker, edgier Faire's and from there cultivated her talent in song writing. After a handful of human years in the House of Faire, Amaris left. She was Houseless again for a little while, taking the time to do a bit of soul searching to travel and to fall in love with her now ex Nikhil Frost. During this time, Amaris initiated into the House of Gealach and became pregnant with her son Saga. They were a happy family until the Third Court War rolled around.
Amaris was kidnapped along with most of her Housemates and when she resurfaced suffered from bouts of memory loss. Her reunion with her family was strained and trying at best. Their time apart had made Nikhil distant and helping her piece her memories together only served to drive them further apart. When she was well enough, Nkihil left. The now have joint custody over their son.
