Ethelia

[Ethelia]

Ethelia Luckdrawn Appearance Race: Human Gender: Female Age: 18 Birthday: 91st day of Summer, 496 AV Birthplace: Lhavit Appearance: Pale skin that is only emphasized by the dark charcoal stream of hair- the girl's appearance is of one that has always been well-fed. The usual signs of malnutrition are absent- she stands at 5' 2" which is two inches above her mother, her skin is unblemished and has a healthy pinkness, and the hair that falls in straight dark sheets is thick. Equal parts muscle and fat, Ethelia is as heavy as a commoner can get growing up in the mountains of Lhavit- her weight wavers at around the 120lb mark. Right below her navel is a small crescent shaped birthmark that mimics the placement of her mother's scar left by the doctor whenhe was forced to cut Ethelia out and pull her from her mother's womb. Character Concept An aspiring squire of the Syliran Knights filled with a fairytale-esque idea of knighthood and honor. But instead of being filled with longing for a knight of her own, she's determined to become one herself. She knows her beliefs and morals but hasn't fully developed the logic behind them yet. Despite this, Ethelia is a very willful person. Once she sets her mind on something, it becomes very hard to reel her back. Character History As the youngest child from both her mother's and father's side of the family, Ethelia grew up heavily doted upon by all her relatives. Her childhood was filled with idyllic adventures with her older cousins, some of whom were part of the Shinya and had hopes of recruiting her whilst she was still young. Her father was an Okomo shepherd who had been saved by Syliran Knight when he was a child. Through him, she developed a deep admiration of the Knights order, thus eliminating all hope for her cousins to take her for the Shinya. But that did not keep her cousins from teaching her a variety of ways to fight, including with a lance which would later become her preferred weapon. ---Learning Symenos--- On the days in which she was not preoccupied with pestering her family for adventure, Ethelia roamed the paper-lined shelves of the Bharani library. It was here that she picked up a smattering of Symenos words. Her initial interest in the language would've been lost had it not been for a Harvest that took one of her Shinya cousins whilst defending the city a few days later. At the news of her cousin's disappearance and the sight of her family's grief, Ethelia dove into the single book she had found in the library and set herself upon learning all that she could about the "Widows" that dwelt so close to them- hoping that she might be able to rescue her cousin herself.
