'''Alias(es):
13 (as a ghoul) '''

'''Real Name:
(as far as she knows) Ester Lyra'''

'''Apparent Age:
15ish, but closer to Natalie Portman circa ‘The Professional’'''

'''Concept:
Shiny Ingénue'''

'''Physical description:
Ester walks with a light and springy step, her head held high, bright brown eyes wide and darting from side to side. She moves as if she could fly away at any moment, but observes everything around her with intense, polite interest. She looks like a young teen, is a bit over 5ft tall, and has dark hair. 
Ester’s head is covered with a small cap or headdress, she always wears a shawl or cape, and has archaic-looking jewelry piled on like she is playing sorceress princess occult dress-up. 
A small brown mouse peeks his nose out from the small pouch attached to her waist. 
Ester has a distinct aura of innocence about her ((merit: Sanctity)).'''

“She '''is''' a cute little toaster,” Rictor

Ester pulls out a squirmy brown mouse from her hip pouch and holds him before you, “This is my ghoul, Spike. A Gangrel heard I was thinking about a pet mouse many years ago and caught him for me. I really named Spike ‘Matthew’, but then all these Nosferatu and Gangrel in different Domains kept telling me he wanted to be called ‘Spike’, so I decided that he was either a very social Mouse with Opinions, or that this was the greatest prank ever…. So I ghouled him and named him Spike.”

“Ester is a Cowgirl and the Queen of the Hobos and a Pirate Queen. Also other things.” [[Randall Scott]], clanmate

“All knowledge is worth having.” Jacqueline Carey

- [[Sheniver DuBois]] made Ester read Twilight 
- Ester wants a monkey more than anything 
- [[Randall Scott]] owes Ester a zombie horde 
- Ester has held congress with Celestials 
- Ester consorted with [[Elias Beecher]] 
- The elder gods are rising, and Ester is the only one with enough ancient lores to hold them back 
- Ester and [[Randall Scott]] have had a falling out 
- Ester hasn't been seen in public society since 2013; her Clan has isolated her to fight things which man was not meant to know
