Ula del Rosario

Ula del Rosario is the young navigator of the Charon's Razor. Though she is only seventeen years old, her parents taught her many of their skills, allowing her to live and work as one of the pirates of Puerto Dorado. She’s a hardworking girl who’s determined to help protect the isle and its residents.

Backstory
Ula del Rosario is the second child of Jasmine (also known as Amihan) and Ollie del Rosario. As such, she is of Filipino and Chinese descent, though she also inherited her father’s siren traits. Ula was born in the American colonies, growing up on the coast with her parents, brother, aunt, uncle, and grandmother. Once she was old enough, she began to accompany her parents during their voyages to visit both Britain and the Philippines, learning from her parents many of the skills needed to contribute to the crew.

During one such voyage, her family’s ship was attacked by pirates, and she fell overboard during the fight. When she came to, the ship was nowhere in sight. However, she spotted the dark silhouette of an isle in the distance. Ula swam to the isle, soon discovering that it was the same Puerto Dorado where her parents once lived for a time. However, to her amazement, she realized that the isle’s flow of time was different from the one that she had experienced, because she had arrived just a year after Amihan and Ollie secretly left Puerto Dorado.

Realising that many of the threats that her parents once faced were still prevalent, Ula resolved to take up the same fight and assist the isle in what ways she could, relying on information she heard from stories growing up and extra details in her mother’s journal to navigate social relations.

Appearance & Gear
Ula is a slender woman who stands at 1.63 m (5’4”). She has light brown skin, brown eyes, and long black hair that’s often kept in a ponytail tied with a blue ribbon. Three feathers are incorporated into the ponytail: a gold feather from Amihan the diwata, a black feather from Corvus, and a violet feather from Stonks’ parrot form when corrupted by chaos.

Ula inherited a gold bracelet with pink stones and special engravings, which was originally given to her mother by Stray. The bracelet is enchanted so that Ula can’t lose it and no one can forcefully steal it off of her. The bracelet was made with four chaos diamonds, which absorb malicious magic directed at the wearer, though none of the Del Rosario’s know this. Ula wears it as an armband on her upper right arm, a couple of inches below her shoulder. Ula also owns a bandana that can change colours and a pair of fireproof gloves, both of which she bought from “Smiles” the Salesman. The gold clasp for her shoulder wrap can be opened—much like a locket—to reveal a small cross on the inside lid and a family portrait on the opposite side.

Due to developing an affinity for blades and thus developing her swordsmanship the most, Ula carries a rapier and several knives with her, most of which are throwing knives. She also owns Edvin’s favourite cinquedea dagger with a brig engraved on its side, which she inherited from her mother. It is a matching pair with Stray’s own dagger. If separated from her, the cinquedea dagger will reappear on her person again a short while later.

Personality
Ula is a quiet and observant girl who prefers to watch and support others from the sidelines. She’s polite and friendly to most that she meets, though she tends to hold people at a slight distance in order to keep her personal life private.

Due to her desire to serve as a natural support for others, Ula tends to put up a professional and adult-like front. Most personal worries and grievances quickly get shelved in favour of this façade, with Ula resolving to fix problems by herself in her own time as much as possible.
