The Widow: Jen. The Child: Chie. Expected Activity: Skill Activity. Social Status: Patrician (aristocracy).
Information: The two surviving members of gens Aemilius (or in the feminine form, Aemilia), are a mother and daughter who could not be more different. Women who have exited their first marriage and inherited property have a power in society far superior to other women, and the widow is an expert in exercising the nuances of those privileges, jealous of her prerogatives and looking to ensure a secure, comfortable life for her family.
Her daughter is carefree, disrespectful, mindless of the niceties of society, and constantly threatening the good name of the family and her own marriageability prospects. Evasive, the daughter usually avoids her mother's uncanny skill at making ehr behave responsibly by simply not being there.
Exclusive Skill (Widow): Widow's Wiles. The ability to play upon the pride of a social superior so that they treat you according to the social expectations of their reputation.
Exclusive Skill (Child): Enfant Terrible. No matter the social situation, you automatically know the inappropriate thing to say to bring an awkward silence crashing down, or an uncomfortable truth popping out.
