Allyria Ladybright

Allyria Ladybright is the second-born daughter of Lord Benedict Ladybright. Owner of, “The Peafowl’s Lyric” in King’s Landing, she is exploring life in the grand city while pursuing a dream career in entertainment. Visitors to the small tavern at the base of Visenya's Hill are often treated to the colorful performance of, “The Peafowl”, the assumed identity Allyria uses to discretely make her mark in the city.

Appearance and Character
A woman easy to consider beautiful, Allyria is of relatively average height and weight, with light brown hair and grey-blue eyes that shine easily in the light. She has a lithe frame, tight and agile from a life of acrobatics. To accompany her stage name, Allyria often wears a tight-fitting suit of rich blue, with a plumage of green, yellow, and blue feathers with the trademark spots of the peafowl.

A jovial spirit first and foremost, Allyria's priority in life has largely been to enjoy it. The usual trappings of noble life never held interest for her, minus it's obvious luxuries comforts. A person's worth, she always believed, was quantified by their ability and personality, not from any social status. Her own interests center mainly around the sensual and pleasurable aspects of life. Always one to hunger for the attention of others, she took an active interest in music and performance from a young age. Ever since beginning her life anew in King's Landing, Allyria has assumed the identity of, "The Peafowl", so that any notice she drew would be due to her and not her heritage.

History
Born in 421 AC, Allyria enjoyed a life of luxury in her family's coastal castle of Maiden's Fountain. She spent the majority of her free time growing up exploring the orchards of fruit trees, seaside coves and beaches her family owned. She rarely concerned herself with the political climate surrounding her. While her father had been always been understanding of his daughter's lifestyle, the tension of The War of Stone and Sky caused their relationship to strain as the war grew closer and closer. Now hemmed in by a father turned protective, she grew ever rebellious as her teen years truly set in. Sheltered from her old comforts of the outside world, Allyria turned inwards for entertainment, taking keenly to any opportunity to enjoy herself. The various instruments at her disposal drew most of her attention, as did the chance to study theatrics, but as she grew older it was her interest in men that began to blossom.

By the time peace truly returned to Dorne, she determined that life in Maiden's Fountain was too small for her to truly enjoy. On the condition from her father that she find herself a suitable husband, Allyria set out for Sunspear to make a life for herself. Her time with the Martells wasn't to last. Knowing freedom like never before, and an growing interest in romance, Allyria soon became deeply embroiled in a tangled web of rival romances that eventually led to a need to leave Sunspear lest violence come to her doorstep. Faced with the choice of returning home in defeat, or risking everything in a new location, she made her choice. Sending but a simple note home explaining her intentions, Allyria left on the swiftest boat from Dorne and never looked back - ahead of her, King's Landing.

Life in the capital proved difficult without the full comforts of a noble heritage to call upon. She had money, more than most could claim, but not enough for the life she so desired. Marrying a wealthy merchant or minor lord was always an option, but that sort of dependency was what caused her flight north in the first place. When it seemed she would need to return home in shame, a chance revealed itself. A small tavern at the base of Visenya's Hill, settled beneath the towering heights of King's Landing by the Street of Sisters. Allyria siezed the opportunity as it presented itself, but she didn't want her given name to be the one that would spread through the streets, lest jilted ex-lovers catch wind of her. She adopted an alias to shield her new life as a performer, donning a colorful outfit to match the colorful and mythic animal she would present as on stage, Allyria began a life unlike any she'd ever imagined - a life known simply as, "The Peafowl." The first months were the hardest, barely any crowds, and those that did come were more trouble than they were worth. In time, however, fortunes began to change."The Peafowl's Lyric" has yet to truly draw serious attention within the city, but business has been steady enough to make life sustainable for Allyria and several workers. A far cry away from the comforts of Maiden's Fountain and Dorne, Allyria will fight to keep this life of freedom and exploration she has carved out for herself.
