Description
A self-described "nerd-for-life", Yvonne is a Hermetic mage who specializes in entropy and forces. The door to her room in the chantry house is identified by a Joker and a Queen of Hearts taped to it, as these cards basically sum her up. When she's not changing the resident Cultist's marijuana plant into a tomato vine, she's usually in the chantry library translating classic literary works, studying steganography, or working on cryptography problems.
Yvonne is a regular at local and regional poker tournaments, and sometimes travels back to the States to play and visit her father.
She loves Nutri-grain bars and anything from a coffee bean.
Background
Yvonne came from a modest background, having been raised by her car-mechanic father since she was 12. She was born in Phoenix and graduated at the top of her class, knowing six languages fluently and the highest-ranked math student. She began her college career at UCLA, double-majoring in English and mathematics, with hopes of becoming a influential professor. After a few friends from her Contemporary English Literature class introduced her to the leisurely pasttime of poker, she discovered what she thought was a natural talent. She began playing poker online and entering a few local tournaments, and was soon invited to tourneys in different states. After accruing a generous amount of winnings, she decided to leave UCLA and become a professional poker player. She continued to collaborate with her statistics professor on scholarly journal articles via e-mail correspondence, and attributed her poker successes to her strong affinity for recognizing probabilities and patterns.
