*'''Bartender (Fame 1)''': Lark is the hotshot (nearly midget) bartender of the Sideshow, known for being incredibly good at her job. Those of a barfly sort who pay attention to such things may have heard of her; there are even the occasional times she indulges in a show of her own, though this is usually only when there are other performers on stage. Catching her is sometimes a trick, as her schedule seems without any rhyme or reason. She is incredibly good at her job, both in the serving drinks (and picking drinks) category, as a showman, and also as a sympathetic ear if she's caught when it's not busy. '''NOTE''': Lark will not hesitate to throw anyone's rear end out of the club (or call the police to do so) if they don't follow the rules.

*'''Off the Record''': Off the Record is a coffee shop, music shop, and bookstore; it sells espresso and coffee as well as pastries and sandwiches. Typical coffee shop fare. Of the musical bits, they sell new and used records, CDs, and sheet music, rent and sell from a small collection of instruments. Book-wise, they sell both new and used. Mostly fiction, with a Fantasy and Science Fiction bent. There are several other store-fronts in the building (which Lark owns) that are for rent, as well as several studio apartments above (also for rent). Renting a shop or studio requires an interview with Lark; they're not advertised in general. They are mostly reserved for other Changelings, though a down-on-their-luck artist might be able to get a spot.

*'''Pickpocket/thief''': She's not quite a kleptomaniac; she's not quite an intentional thief. It's only that if she sees something she wants, it doesn't occur to her that perhaps someone might not want her to have it. It's not entirely unconscious, but she doesn't wake up in the morning and decide it's going to be a thieving day, either. If you have something shiny, she might want it. Not the best way to meet someone, but it's a way to meet them! '''(Please do not just assume she's stolen from your character without clearing it with me first.)'''

*'''Bartender (Fame 1)''': Lark was the hotshot (nearly midget) bartender of the Sideshow, known for being incredibly good at her job. Those of a barfly sort who pay attention to such things may have heard of her; she used to put on quite the show on regular occasion. She was incredibly good at her job, both in the serving drinks (and picking drinks) category, as a showman, and also as a sympathetic ear if she was caught when it's not busy. While she's mostly caught up in running her own place these days, she does still occasionally put an appearance in, usually on Friday or Saturday nights.
  
 
*'''Short''': Lark is a tinyperson. She's 4'9" and fully an adult. She wears huge shoes to try and counteract this, but really, she's never going to reach a high shelf without a ladder. While she's not terribly sensitive about her height (she will pretend she is, mind), it's certainly a conversation starter.

*'''Randomness''': While she's actually pretty together beneath the surface, Lark cultivates an air of randomness, strangeness, and crazy. She has no apparent understanding of personal boundaries, touches everything, has no shame, is incredibly intrusive, is horribly presumptuous, and...is very random. A whole lot of random. She can be pretty much anywhere doing pretty much anything. If there's a particular aspect of your character you'd like to see brought into play, feel free to let me know.

*'''Druggie''': She is one. Dealer? Fellow addict? She's certainly always willing to get high with somebody. It makes the hurting stop, and hey, the more the merrier, right?

  • Off the Record: Off the Record is a coffee shop, music shop, and bookstore; it sells espresso and coffee as well as pastries and sandwiches. Typical coffee shop fare. Of the musical bits, they sell new and used records, CDs, and sheet music, rent and sell from a small collection of instruments. Book-wise, they sell both new and used. Mostly fiction, with a Fantasy and Science Fiction bent. There are several other store-fronts in the building (which Lark owns) that are for rent, as well as several studio apartments above (also for rent). Renting a shop or studio requires an interview with Lark; they're not advertised in general. They are mostly reserved for other Changelings, though a down-on-their-luck artist might be able to get a spot.
  • Bartender (Fame 1): Lark was the hotshot (nearly midget) bartender of the Sideshow, known for being incredibly good at her job. Those of a barfly sort who pay attention to such things may have heard of her; she used to put on quite the show on regular occasion. She was incredibly good at her job, both in the serving drinks (and picking drinks) category, as a showman, and also as a sympathetic ear if she was caught when it's not busy. While she's mostly caught up in running her own place these days, she does still occasionally put an appearance in, usually on Friday or Saturday nights.
  • Short: Lark is a tinyperson. She's 4'9" and fully an adult. She wears huge shoes to try and counteract this, but really, she's never going to reach a high shelf without a ladder. While she's not terribly sensitive about her height (she will pretend she is, mind), it's certainly a conversation starter.
  • Washington: This is where she's from. Specifically, Seattle and then Spokane. If your character is from these areas, hey, maybe they know one another. IT COULD HAPPEN. Drop me a page.
  • Streetpeople: While she is employed and does actually have somewhere to live right now, Lark has spent quite a bit of time on the streets (and no, it did not always go terribly well for her, given the givens). She is likely to be familiar with other people whose life revolves around this particular lifestyle.
  • Seer: This is what she is. She has nightmares, and she also is very gifted with Soothsay. If you want to use this for a plot / some character development, I'm happy to participate, just let me know. However! She has had HORRIBLE experiences with this in the past, so don't expect her to participate in any conversations about the topic. Usually she will just bolt if the subject comes up. She will not ignore her visions, though. Ever.
  • Surreal Quality: She has this flaw. It makes her attractive to mortals at inopportune moments, makes her stand out as something strange, makes her the first target for things that go bump in the night. Feel free to notice her.
  • Bard's Tongue: She also has this flaw. If you want her to say something to have it come true later, feel free to tag me about it and she will spit it out.
  • Sidhe: She hates (most of) them. It's nothing personal.
