IC:
Name: Núria Belmont í Fuentes
Age: 20
Personality: Núria is, at first, everything you would expect from a petite young woman. Reserved, polite and exceptionally formal. Her exterior is charming, welcoming and well-practised, and it is not so much a façade, but it is an outer layer that she very rarely lets drop.
She doesn't like conflict, of any variety. In fact, Núria is the type to purposefully lie, should it help to avoid any kind of conflict. She doesn't really consider this lying at all, though, and thinks it to be for the greater good, even if the consequences of the lies get her into further trouble. In this respect, she's also quite two-faced; she might well lie about liking something or someone, even if she believes the complete opposite, if she thinks it's the best thing to do.
With that said, she is exceptionally naive. She is very convincing, but likewise, she is just as easily convinced by other people; quite impressionable by their opinions. She isn't argumentative in the slightest, and is very easy to push around. Her naivety takes another form in her incredible obliviousness, as well; even the most obvious of things can often fly straight over her head.
Sensitive and innocent, if someone does manage to get their point across to her (read: get their crap past the radar), it's fairly easy for them to upset her. But of course, in spite of her oddities, she genuinely is kind and hospitable, and will never intentionally mean anything but well.

Three choices for positions:
- Eight of Diamonds: Núria's naivety comes from having a sheltered life. As part of nobility, she was coddled from birth and never really allowed to see the world outside her window until she came of age. In fact, this rose-tinted view on the world is still one she carries with her, which makes traversing the kingdom/s risky (particularly with all the jewellery she's fond of wearing). At the very least, her parents are smart – and wealthy – enough to give her a guard to travel around with. That doesn't smooth out all the problems, though, of course.
- Five of Diamonds: Hospitable and downright eager to please, Núria is well-suited to a role that requires direct orders. It's possible she obtained this job through noble connections within the kingdom; of course, being a handmaiden or assistant isn't a role one can hope to hold onto unless they're capable of it. She simply likes to work hard to help others to the best of her abilities, be they royalty or otherwise. The only drawback is that her naivety may pose a problem... But so long as the tasks are laid out simply enough to her (in other words, don't use big words in front of the airhead), that shouldn't be much of an issue.
(to be honest if there's an issue with a five, just switch it to a two; the same reasons will apply) - Three of Diamonds: In this case, Núria will have inherited a merchant's business from her father (who still technically owns it, but is probably getting too old and rusty to run it himself). Likely her family made a comfortable amount of money through this trade, primarily selling tobacco and silks as well as exports from the other kingdoms. Though haggling with her is very easy (very, very easy, actually), her friendly and hospitable disposition makes her an excellent businesswoman. She's also pretty good with numbers and stock checks, which is just as well.
