Age: Fourteen (14)
Gender: Female
Profession: Ranger apprentice
Appearance:
Gender: Female
Profession: Ranger apprentice
Appearance:
Her cropped red hair sits higher than her ears, going out only two inches. Hating the fact that she is a girl, she'd loped most of it off (used to hang past her shoulders) to 'fit in with the guys'. [Her parents heedless to say were mortified].Personality:
Her eyes are a shaded blue that lean more on the purple side, especially when she's irritated or angry (which is more often than not).
She's still flatchested and with her hair cut the way it is she can easily pass for a boy with her angled face and movements (walks more with the shoulders, doesn't have a 'correct female posture,' ect.), except for her hands. Though they're roughed with work and not at all smooth like a Lady's should be, they're quite small for a 'guy'.
She believes that being a girl is worse than death. They have to be submissive to the male race, stay at home, live a boring life, learn everything and anything to please the men, and no fighting. It isn't fit for a Lady. She hates that saying more than anything, well, except for Jordian Sharpe (childhood enemy who keeps teasing her because she's a girl, though at a distance after she socked him in the face and bloodied his nose).History:
Unlike a Lady, she's stubborn, picks a fight whenever she can just to prove that she's not one, 'damages her tongue' with curses, 'ruins her complexion' with scowls, and doesn't know when to keep quite to avoid punishment.
She'll take practically any dare offered to her just to prove that she can be an equal to any guy.
Born into a family in Araleun that already had two girls, her life seemed inevitable. Stubborn as a bull, she showed them wrong as she refused to act like a Lady. She picked up the sword first, but dropped it soon after once she found out that though she was strong, she didn't have the strength to defeat a boy. So she took to the bow. She practiced constantly everyday despite her parents wishes for her act proper. She still had to take the lessons on becoming a Lady, but she refused to kneal down to it completely.Additional Information:
She learned the lessons quickly, believing that if she used them enough her parents would leave her alone. They did eventually, but not completely. Still, it was better than spending all day doing them.
She was practicing one day when she was thirteen and a ranger happened to see her. When he headed back to Araluen, he looked around for someone to take her on as an apprentice. Though he wanted to be that person, he couldn't. He'd sworn to the girl's mother that she would never know of his true role in her life. He'd stay in the shadows, he was good at that, she'd told him and would find it easy enough to do - she was wrong.
A few months later, she was assigned to Monkuta Jay.
