Profile And Skills


Even at her young age, Miss Taimiev has already demonstrated herself as a formidable player on the international political theatre. A daughter of one of Chechnya's remaining few noble families and de facto heiress to her family's wealth, Yisa comes from old money and an older pedigree, bred from a proud bloodline of princely dignitaries and soldiers. She is especially famous for having survived a political ransom during her war-torn country's insurgency, only to escape and subsequently parry her captors, seeing an entire Russian forces platoon convicted for evidence of war crimes. Any further progress into her short political career, for the moment, has been curtailed by her sudden move to continue post-secondary studies in Japan as a foreign resident. Some say the decision was made for her -- on the behest of her family -- purely to keep the hot-headed, inexhaustible young woman out of trouble.

History



Personality



Persona and Resonance


"THOU art thee.

I am ME.

You have been the White Queen.

So shall I be.

Can we hear when SHE is near?

When yesterday shall arrive, you will already know. Once you remember tomorrow, then we both must go."


Perhaps one of Lewis Carroll's more mysterious characters, she is the total embodiment of chaos and instability, regarded even by the eccentric characters of Wonderland as someone who is "truly mad." The opposing foil of the Red Queen, the White Queen remains in a constant chessboard battle with her foe, even if her own piece makes moves that are deemed strange and foolish, if not completely illogical. But there is a method underlying the White Queen's madness, something few ever realize; even the astute Alice could only partially unravel the Queen's mysterious manner, learning that time crawled backward for the woman, and for whom the effect would always precede the cause.

In subsequent retellings of Lewis Carroll's Alice series, the White Queen has evolved somewhat from her befuddling role into the archetype of a warrior queen, albeit one who remains somewhat unstable and unsure of herself. Whether mad or not, she always opposes the fury of the Red Queen, assuming the duty for a host of reasons: she knows the role she must play in the conquests of Kings, she knows that is how the chessboard is played, and she knows that the Red Queen must be opposed since she both understands and shares the woman's darkness.

The White Queen has developed into a construct who, while appearing destined to be the heroine, strangely may not possess the talent or capacity for the role. She's neither truly virtuous nor truly noble, with the saving grace of her principles the only thing keeping her from becoming a Red Queen, herself.

  • SENSE: The sensation of standing in the eye of a storm. All around is a tempest of calamity and chaos, but here are the precious moments of safety and sanity. However, the eye is moving, and the madness must draw near...

  • SMELL: The many enticing smells of some basking royal's indulgent breakfast, such as tarts and buttered pastries, and most exquisite of all... raspberry jam.

  • SOUND: The slow, measured ticking of an ornate grandfather clock. The sound of clocks being wound and spun.

    • Nika Rumyantseva - Yisa ran into the young woman for the first time during Sumaru's Culinary Festival. The confrontation came to blows within seconds. Despite not even knowing the girl, Yisa cannot explain the inexplicable feeling of rage Nika incites in her. Inexplicable... and all-consuming. There's something about her presence Yisa cannot explain... something that feels both like hatred and home.

    • Izo Imaizumi - Even if Yisa knew his name, she's still sure she wouldn't be able to decipher him. What she thought was an unassuming bar bouncer, Izo shocked her with his ability to surgically cut her open to her very fears. But that didn't stop her from punching him in the face. Despite that, he admitted he's a Sumaru student. That places him under her protection. Even if he disorients her to distraction.

  • XI - STRENGTH
    • Masahiko Irie - Yisa met him briefly during the Culinary Festival, and found herself surprised by his impromptu "rescue" of her from the black-out and strife that ultimately beseiged the grounds. Her crusading spirit somehow made him become "an angry dinosaur." Yisa still isn't sure if she parsed the Japanese right.

  • XVI - TEMPERANCE
    • Naomi Suzuno - An old childhood friend, Yisa recalls her during her previous years studying in Japan. They were charm school classmates. Yes, try to imagine it. Now she's reunited with her friend, much to Yisa's private delight. She's grateful to have a familiar face in Japan.
