Regina "Laurel" Decker

Regina "Laurel" Decker, more commonly known as Reggie, is a Seelie Korred Changeling who lives in the city of Hamilton. An old acquaintance of Gloriana, she has taken to operating with her under her new form, Celestine. She is an established novelist and experienced adventurer.

Personal History
Regina was born on the west coast, but her parents moved to Hamilton when she was young. After experiencing her chrysalis in the Hamilton Public Library and a dozen adventures in the city, she quickly grew to love the town and decided to live full time. Over the course of her life, she has spent much of her time avidly studying esoterica, fringe theories, and getting involved in a lot of the communities around it. As a korred, the collection of secrets and information is one of her core driving factors.

Most people know her as a famous author of several fantasy series, the most popular of which is the Halfman Series, following a collection of unlikely magical people stuck perpetually between the real world and the world of magic. These are of course blatant rip-offs of her own adventures and the adventures of other changelings she has interviewed (with their permission, of course).

Personality
Depending on how charitable you're feeling, you'd describe Reggie as either "ecstatic" or "obnoxious". Full of a lust for life and adventure, she tends to force her way through things in a blunt fashion, giving her opinion unheeded whether you want it or not. Prone to assume she knows better than everyone else, she's only somewhat saved by the fact that she's usually right.

In spite of her many flaws, Reggie is a good councilor, affable adventurer if you can get past her roughness around the edges, and stops for nothing once she's working towards a goal. Her dedication is more than just her own personal knowledge: she wants everyone to learn and share information with each other, firmly believing in cooperation over conflict wherever possible. However, when push comes to shove she'd rather fight than flee, and doesn't back down from confrontation.

Description
Reggie is very short, just shy of 5 feet, but with the personality to match. She has brown skin with a large poof of curly hair and eye-catching bronze eyes that she usually keeps hidden behind rounded sunglasses with one red lens and one blue one. That's only the start of her questionable fashion choices, however, as she usually wears a red hawaiian shirt with cargo shorts on top of that, and is never far from her trusty leather backpack. Underneath it all, she's not awful looking, but damn if its not a lot to take in. Her bearing is one of barely restrained energy combined with just a touch of haughtiness.

In her korred form, Reggie is much shorter and covered with fur. She's seen wearing simply but effective explorer's clothing, with orange fur and bright blue eyes. She has been described by those who have seen her chimerically as a little bit 'gremlin-ish'.
