Description: Short and voluptuous, she stands an inch or two over five feet but holds herself taller, moving with a supple indolence that economizes her stride. Her thick, shining hair, a shade darker than white-gold, tumbles over her shoulders in an unruly mass of curls and waves, forming the backdrop to the leonine cast of her features. Her complexion glows a deep bronze, complementing the proud height of her brow, the bold strength of her cheekbones, the smooth sculpt of her jawline, with large, round eyes as rich and warm as molten chocolate. Pouty lips and plump cheeks complete the fullness of her face, with a dainty slope of a nose perfectly at the center. Lush, womanly curves exaggerate her silhouette while gracefully long limbs make the most of her lacking stature, the delicacy of her slender hands and overall softness of her figure suggesting a life led in luxury.

Personality: If two words had to be chosen to describe Phoebe, they might be "effervescently vibrant". Not that Phoebe would ever use just two words. She's bright and vivacious and endlessly chatty. If someone else isn't feeling quite so chatty, she's happy to fill in the gaps for them. She adores meeting and befriending people from all across Arvum and all parts of society, and has a particular penchant for inquiring about others' interests.

She has her own spin on the family business, in that she particularly enjoys investing in people and derives considerable joy from simply watching somebody's project come to fruition. Still, it is most certainly still business, and for all her bubbliness and generosity of spirit, there is a shrewd undercurrent to Phoebe when it comes to finance. She's careful and clever with money, always watching for good opportunities.

Background: Phoebe is the scion of a small but exceedingly affluent family of commoners from Arx. For generations, members of the Cordelle family have acted as financiers and bankers for people throughout the Compact. Usually, the family's investments are strictly profit-motivated, although from time to time, they have been known to take a risk on something unlikely to yield any return or even to engage in purely philanthropic endeavours.

Being the only child of the main branch of the family, Phoebe's formative years were spent being educated on every particular of how money works, of how to use it, and of how to conduct herself in polite society, with it being assumed and expected that she would have to mingle with people from every walk of life. Then, upon reaching adulthood, Phoebe threw herself into being a socialite with the utmost zest and has quickly established a reputation as a vivacious bon vivant. She even used funds provided by her mother to buy a house, where she has taken to receiving all manner of guests. While usually unspoken, it is clear that at least some of Phoebe's day-to-day engagements with people have the good of the family business as an underlying motivation. Many others though? They're just for the fun of it.
