CLEMENTINE ADELAIDE TUCK

'The difference between right and wrong is a matter of perspective...
and those of us on the Land are always looking up.'​


Main Base || The Land
Nicknames || Mina | The Fox
Role || Criminal

Character Pitch || Named for her hair, which upon birth was a shock of bright reddish orange, Mina came into her family with very little - a citizen of Pariah Bay by necessity, not choice. Her father, once a famous tinkerer, known for his beautiful watch-craft, was left destitute after a terrible accident crippled his hands, leaving him without work. Shortly after his accident, Mina was born - their forth child - at a time when another mouth to feed seemed the worst curse life could offer their small family.

Yet despite the timing, Mina brought only a surprising spark of joy to the life of her mother and father, and while their struggle did not decrease, neither did their happiness.

Unrelenting, however, tragedy struck again ten years later, when two of Mina's siblings and her mother succumbed to the effects of oxygen deprivation during a particularly devastating smog storm. It was Mina's first real view of the world as it truly was, and the catalyst to the woman that she would grow up to be.

She did not plan to become a thief, but her growing impatience with what was perceived as an unfair system, and watching her father slowly dissolve in his own agonizing depression pushed Mina to act. It was her father's suicide that was the final straw. Devastated, Mina looked to those responsible for her family's fate and determined to see that no one suffered the way the Tucks had.

Oxygen was never easy to come by, and stealing from the people of the Sky was an ever increasing risk. Giving the oxygen away was an even great challenge, but with her father's intuition and intelligence behind her, Mina managed to make quite a name for herself... a veritable Robin Hood of Golden City.

Appearance || Despite growing up impoverished, Mina is no waif. On the shorter side of average at 5'5", Mina is stockier in build, with a fuller figure and strong arms and legs, honed from years of grueling labor. She possesses fiery red hair, curly and generally unruly enough that she keeps it tied up, and unusually bright amber-brown eyes. Her skin is a rosy hue, flecked with freckles, her features delicate when relaxed, but otherwise intensely expressive.
