Known Information

Background

Geneviève nó Orchis was the result of a retired Jasmine courtesan and an Eglantine satirist being drawn together by Naamah for a single night's pleasure. Unusually, the woman preferred the resultant girl-child be fostered among her Eglantine kin, for even as a babe it was clear she'd never embrace the heady sensuality of the Jasmine canon. Thus sequestered, she spent her childhood among the playwrights and thespians, developing a flair for the dramatic and razor-keen wit.

While she had skill as a performer, her talent manifested in such a way that laughter was inevitable. So it was, when she reached her tenth year, it was to Orchis House she went. She blossomed under the tutelage, adapting the lessons of Eglantine to the merriment of Orchis, melding them as both artiste and comédienne. Her comedy style is very queer, either preferring to speak nothing and convey all she need through her body or embrace absurdism and speak in non-sequitur or conflicting nonsense.

Several years after completing her marque, she went on a voyage to who-knows-where and returned several more years later speaking fluent Hellene and bearing the first draft of her now-infamous surrealist satire of the Trois Mille Joies. Without hesitation, her House accepted her back as one of Naamah's servants where she's served for two decades since. Running her own salon is not out of reach for the woman, but she's managed to duck the path to Dowayncy thus far and seems uncompelled to leave her House.
