Galanthus Bardot (a.k.a. Khione)
Galanthus, also called Khione, is a human woman from
Icedale. The name Galanthus means a type of flower which blooms in snow drifts, harkening to her northern origins. Khione means snow, given to her because of the circumstances of her rebirth in a snowstorm. After the accident Khione was trained in the art of combat, wielding a rapier and dagger combination.
In the group she takes on the role of Nightingale's lancer, foiling off her with Galanthus' pure emotionality. Galanthus and Khione are both driven by and at the mercy of their volatile emotions.
In modern Moumin her name is written as: ga-ll-en-th-is bar-dot kh-eo-n.
Physical Description
Physically fit, with an ample figure that has lost some weight. Not exceptionally muscular, but surprisingly agile for her size. Still dealing with lingering aftereffects of nearly freezing to death.
No upper lip, a distorted and shortened nose, numerous scars all over.
A special dagger and rapier set.
Mental characteristics
Presents as very feminine, but clothing isn't skirts and dresses.
Bisexual, but with more attraction to men than women.
No formal education, can barely read and write at a basic level. Only started learning how to read as an adult.
The fact that she did not learn how to read or write until she was an adult causes embarrassment anytime she needs to read something and especially when she needs a word explained to her.
Lost all of her memories for months and became a whole new person until her memories returned. Now she has two identities, one of whom is legally dead, that she needs to balance those two identities so one doesn't overtake the other. When one identity is present the other will talk like Deadpool's boxes. Has what we would classify as Dissociative Identity Disorder or Dissociative Amnesia, but she doesn't have access to a resource that could diagnose her.
Personality Characteristics
Used to be addicted to
Yersdonine like her cousin, but once he died she decided to stop.
