I am new. Very, very new. In that, I just found this website maybe a half an hour ago. Nonetheless, I shall post my character concept here, and work on it as I become more familiar with the site, the community, and the lore of the world. : ) Pleasure being here, and please be patient with me!
Gender: Female Race: Svefra Age: 19 Height: 4'11 Weight: Light Build: Lithe Eye Color: Blue Skin: Tanned Hair: Dark, long, messy
There was nothing unusual about the young Svefran girl. She was marked by all the expected features of her kind – the dark, sun-tanned skin and bright, sea-blue eyes. Thick, long locks of shadow-brown hair fell carelessly to frame her small, round face, flowering over slender shoulders and down her spine to the small of her back. Many a strand was decorated with gleaming beads and cut gems, strips of colorful cloth, seashells and fish-scales, seabird feathers and glinting gold coins. She was a small creature – particularly so, seeing that she had not passed five feet despite her nineteen years of age. She was slender, lithe, and though her limbs were muscular, it was lean muscle – the type of muscle built for endurance, speed, rather than brute strength. Her figure was a boyish one – a nearly flat chest and only a slight curve to define her hips. It didn't help that her clothing was baggy, loose – a size too large for her tiny frame. Her garb was common. Cheap cloth, dirty, wrinkled. A white shirt stained with dirt, worn from use, tucked into billowing tan breaches, strapped down by a pair of belts tightly encircling her waist, each one bedecked with numerous pouches, large and small, as well as a number of trinkets strung together – gold coins, ivory figurines, and other odds and ends. Her wrists and ankles were decorated with bangles that clinked and clanged with even the slightest of movement, and bells dangled from her little ears, jingling with each turn and tilt of her head. Though her childish, round face often glowed with a toothy, mischievous grin, a certain beauty could be found in her features in moments of silence and stillness. The wide, blue eyes that glimmered and sparked with the shifting light – windows into her souls, filled with life and emotion, unfiltered, unguarded. The soft curve of full lips, the gentle slope of her nose. Long lashes that gently brushed her cheeks when her eyes closed. This beauty was not often seen, however, for her countenance rarely rested still. The liveliness of her expressions and childishness of her demeanor were too distracting. Her loud voice was perhaps unexpectedly deep, rough around the edges but nonetheless with a honey sweetness that gave itself well to song. And she smelled of the sea. Always of the sea, no matter how far from it she might travel, no matter how long away from the salty shores she might stay. The sea went with her where ever she tread – a refreshing, salty breeze that accompanied the brilliance of her smile and the melody of her laughter. She was as free and as fickle as the ocean itself. Emotional and rash, with a face that could express the black storms of rage as easily as the bright sunlight of a summer afternoon, she was a colorful, memorable figure, immediately recognizable, noticeable even in the largest of crowds. She was a creature to be loved and hated in equal measure.
This Svefran child was raised the way most of her kin were. She grew up on the deck of a small ship, and spent her seasons among her pod, swimming in the salt and spray of the vast ocean. What brought her away from the her home on the waves is unknown - perhaps her adventurous spirit spread beyond the waters of her home, urging her to step ashore and see the lives of other men. Her reasons, if she has any, remain a mystery.
