Appearance

Identifying Characteristics

A handsome face framed by braided hair that seems messy at first glance, but closer inspection reveals is carefully contained chaos.

Physical quirks

Keeps her hands close to her face, often touch her cheeks, nibbling on a fingernail, or rubbing her forehead. Fidgets when she's in a situation where she should try to keep her hands away from her face.

Apparel & Accessories

Tends to dress in loose clothing that she can be comfortable in regardless of where the day takes her. Blacks, reds, and greens tend to be her preferred colours, although she prefer paler shades of red & green to vibrant or dark shades.

Mentality

Education

Taught by Ager and many of his friends in a variety of topics, and is an autodidact who can pick up new things from books quite easily. Her education has been broad but not very deep outside of a few narrow areas -- mostly combat and some of the finer points of running a town.

Employment

Currently serving as the temporary mayor of Ararholm while the newly elected city council figures out a charter and some laws. Once the charter that defines the role of a mayor ( if they even decide they want a mayor ), she'll step down so someone can be elected.

Mental Trauma

• Growing up without a mom has been hard, having Ager for a father didn't make things much easier. Has some abandonment issues, but is working on those with Birgitte


• Is under a tremendous amount of stress trying to keep Ararholm safe, stable, and alive. Tries to delegate and rely on friends as much as she can, but still feels the pressure.

• People will always matter more than things.


• Diplomacy is better than sneaking, sneaking is better than fighting, fighting is better than letting evil go unopposed.
