personality ---
bejah matsen is a simple, quiet and mellow person, but she sees the world grandly, in great colors as an equal playing field. all bejah tries to do is be happy; she's never needed great success or over the top adventures to please her.
as an only child, bejah grew up quietly, spending a good amount of time alone or with animals, which to this day pleases her more than large crowds do. she is a quiet sunrise, not a rowdy sunset and has much more fun floating down the river or running with the dogs than dancing at a party and having all sorts of lavish times.
bejah is not an idealistic optimist. she sees things as they are, very plainly, but she is nearly always positive. bejah thinks that with enough love and hard work anything can be accomplished and she sees no point in doing things that you don't want to. it's a good thing she is self-employed, she would never have to heart to make it in an actual workforce.
bejah is simple, and easily fulfilled. she spends her days volunteering at the community center and taking care of plants and animals on the farm. she has never had or needed that many friends and most nights is happy hanging out with her husband and just a few others, doing something simple and pleasant. bejah is entirely content living on ehu island for the rest of her life, happily married with a few children and some cows and rabbits maybe. she views everyday life as a big enough adventure.

history ---
bejah ipo-jane matsen was conceived in the states and conveniently born on a warm autumn day along the shores of ehu island. her then pregnant photographer of a mother and easily sunburned medic father were those of a select group of individuals who settled the island of ehu and brought it into standing with the western world. despite being the only daughter of two very caucasian americans, bejah has only been to the continent once in her life and was born and raised on ehu island. she despises the tensions between natives and haoles, because while not ethnically native to ehu island she knows only the life of one.
bejah attended public schools across ehu island as a child and was lucky to be the sole inheritor of creative and patient parents, who spent a lot of time fostering her abilities outside of the classroom. as a teenager bejah took up dancing and attended bouscher academy, but dropped out after entering a very spiritual phase during only her second year there.
she got a job as a children's dance and gymnastics teacher at the community center in town and it was here she met her soon to be husband. bejah, never being one to have a large amount of friends or consorts, was taken aback by the chemistry formed between the two. with both having decided on settling in ehu for eternity, it didn't take long for them to realize they should just spend the rest of o their lives together. after saving up enough money for a cottage and land for a farm, the two eloped after maintaining a steady two year relationship.
with a new farm to take care of, bejah quit her job at the community center and she and her husband decided to dedicate their time to cultivating precious mushrooms, feeding the island around them in colors. it has been a steady few years and honestly, bejah is content with where her life is. she currently wants a baby and has been secretly trying to get pregnant for a few weeks now.
