Greetings, y'all.
Emma here with Card number 3, ironically a Three of Diamonds, Lelial Scott-Hughes. Not from the Deck originally, she's a writer from the Outside who made her living and fortune writing inspirational books, poetry, memoirs, ect. Full info is here, feel free to browse. She's been part of the Suit for about a year, but has only recently returned from Outside where she's been promoting her latest publication and is more than glad to be escaping the hustle and bustle which that entails.
A further note: Lelial was not born blind, but rather suffered a traumatic accident during childhood (of which she has never spoken nor has ever been disclosed to the public) and had to learn to live with her handicap. She overcame countless obstacles and trials to achieve an independent adulthood and semblance of a normal life. She has a deep passion for helping others with abnormalities, but prefers to remain aloof from the spotlight, instead letting her works speak for her in the public venue. Her writing success has made a considerable difference in her life, as money always smooths even the roughest terrain, but financial stability is secondary to her need to share her innermost thoughts and connect with others on a wide scale.
Despite her handicap, she remembers voices very well and can still use a keyboard to write and a pencil/pen, if necessary. She also reads Braille very well. Her vision is not gone completely, (IE: she doesn't exist in total darkness) but she can differentiate between "light" and "dark", and makes her way through her surroundings well, despite lacking visual cue. Just...don't ask her what happened for her to lose her sight, because she won't tell you.
So. CR anyone?
