Appearance
Long dark-brown hair in a side braid dotted with tiny purple flowers, a gentle smile and a quiet strength in her eyes.
Signature outfit
An olive-green pinafore dress over a cream sheer blouse with puffed sleeves, with a pale purple satin ribbon. The look is soft and natural and echoes the purple bouquet in her hands.
Where you will find them
A florist shop late at night: a large arched window with a full moon, a warm brass hanging lamp, shelves of lanterns and glass bottles, and a table with a ribbon spool, scissors and a lit candle. She is wrapping a bouquet of lilac and cream roses in paper with a purple ribbon.
Personality and what makes them interesting
Gentle, with boundaries
She is as soft as water yet holds clear principles, and knows how to protect her own world.
A harbour at night
People who come at night carry stories, and her shop is a quiet place to land in the city.
Characters that pair well
A customer who cannot express themselves
They want to apologise but cannot find the words, so she helps choose a bouquet. It fits a healing short story.
A mysterious regular
The regular buys the same flower at the same hour, hiding an unfinished past.
Story hooks
An order at midnight
Someone orders an unsigned bouquet late at night to be sent to a hospital. She decides to deliver it herself.
The last white rose
Only one white rose remains and two customers want it. She must decide.
A knot of her own
In the quiet of the night she carries an unresolved feeling, and through talking with customers she slowly lets it go.
Character card FAQ
Does Liu Minya fit healing stories or romance?
Both. Her core idea is speaking through flowers, which can be romance or a reconciliation between family or friends.
How does Liu Minya stay recognisable outside her night-time shop?
The side braid with purple flowers and the olive pinafore dress are a stable pair, with the night-time florist shop as her main setting.
Can the story take place in daytime?
Yes, but the warm night light and the moon are part of her mood, so keep some night scenes.
