<br/><div class="floatright">(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/7/70/InannaLewis.jpg)</div><br/><strong>Name: </strong>Inanna Lewis<br/><br/><strong>Age: </strong>17<br/><br/><strong>Gender: </strong>: F<br/><br/><strong>Living Quarters: </strong>Stable loft when the weather is good, loft 18 in winter, with her mom.<br/><br/><strong>Orientation: </strong>Uncertain<br/><br/><strong>Marital Status: </strong>S<br/><br/><strong>O&amp;O: </strong>https://elliquiy.com/forums/onsoffs.php?u=54379 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/onsoffs.php?u=54379) for the player; the character herself is pretty unformed sexually, and rather vanilla ATM.<br/><br/><strong>Job:</strong>Vet assistant plus general labor<br/><br/><strong>Skills: </strong>Learning veterinary medicine; naturally good listener; empathy; animal handler; decent cook; light but pleasant singing voice.<br/><br/><strong>Appearance:</strong>Pretty much as appears in the picture; small-breasted, somewhat wide in the hips, full face. Long blonde hair, usually braided while working, loose all the rest of the time.<br/><br/><strong>Model: </strong>Vivian LeFleur<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong><br/>Gentle, quiet, and pretty shy, Ina might have been considered 'slow' in the outside world.  She really isn't- she actually has a low-genius IQ rating, but she relates to the world differently from most, preferring to walk in the trees, listen to running water, or be around her beloved animals. That's her major gift- calming and soothing their work animals; even the most skittish of the wild things which are appearing more and more often close by the settlement will tolerate her presence, if she doesn't get too close.<br/><br/>When she's not helping the vet with a birthing or other responsibilities (it's assumed she'll take over the job when the current Doc retires or passes), she's happy to take on the most repetitive or dull jobs, especially ones she can do alone: weeding, fence walking, whatever's needed.<br/><br/>She's not at all antisocial- she has friends, and has had a few flirtations that never got terribly serious, and is always ready to talk or listen- but she seems to need a lot of solitary time, as well.  The only time she seems really comfortable in large groups is during the community's impromptu religious gatherings.<br/><br/>Some folks worry about her- the settlement is still a potential target for hooligans and raiders- and she's so very gentle and trusting; others, more mystically inclined, see her as a 'pure' child, untainted by the outside, a face of the Goddess.<br/><br/><strong>History: </strong><br/>Both of Inanna's parents were college professors Outside: her mother in Comparative Religion, her father in Sociology and Urban Planning. Ina was a late-in-life baby, their 'magic child', hence her name.<br/><br/>Both adult Lewises were becoming more and more alarmed by the breakdown of civil society and the growth and entrenchment of intolerance and formal hate groups, so they began looking for alternative communities.  When Ina was six, they took early retirement, cashed in their assets and began their quest.<br/><br/>Their first two communities were well-meaning, but collapsed due to poor planning and personality clashes. Another was raided by the police for growing pot; a fourth suffered a devastating fire, believed to be arson, and never recovered. The fifth rapidly turned into a sex cult, the members expected to pair off with whomever the 'Mayor' decreed- and him, of course.<br/><br/>Ina's family was about at the end of their rope when serendipity struck: a professor Ken Lewis had had marginal contact with, Paul Matthews, heard about their quest. The timing was ideal, since New Eden was just getting started. Matthews brought the Lewises and Sarah Walters together, and Ken was deeply involved in planning the community's layout.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, Ken didn't get to enjoy his labors for long- he died of a sudden stroke about a year after their arrival. Ina's mother, Caroline, is now 61, and acts as one of the community's school teachers and helps keep the archives.<br/><br/><br/><br/>
