Thistle
Appearance
Race: Inarta
Caste: Avora
Gender: Female
Age: 21
Birthday: 1, Fall, 497 AV
Birthplace:Wind Reach
Appearance details: Fiery red hair, blue eyes. She likes to wear white and yellow glass beads in her hair. 5'10, 141 lbs willowy and well toned.
Character Concept
She's a hard edged perfectionist with very little sense of humor. Thistle enjoys hunting and is very proud of every ounce of skill she has as a provider. This Avora doesn't tolerate mistakes or fools in any capacity. If she's tough on others, she's even tougher on herself. Avora Thistle holds herself and others to ever high standards. No one has ever heard her laugh and the closest she gets to a smile is a condescending smirk. The only time she lets down her guard is around her beloved Peregrine Falcon chick, Strike.
Character History
Short summary with more details later as I RP her:
Thistle is the only surviving member of triplets and her Avora trainer will never let her forget it. The first time her trainer sent she and her brothers hunting, her brothers were foolish enough to try for a walrus. They whispered angrily between themselves on the best strategy to even approach the terrifyingly huge animal. Her two brothers were of course, for the direct and death wish approach regardless of Thistle's protests. They moved in to flank the ferocious beast while Thistle stood atop the ledge, reluctantly ready to attack from above with her many arrows.
It was her first hunt and she hadn't considered her surroundings as well as she should have. And she was about to learn that the hard way. Her brothers suddenly charged without warning, counting heavily on her volley of protective arrows to reach the two vulnerable eyes of the immense walrus.The impetuous young Inarta attempted to take a step and draw her bow but the jutting cliff left her no room to do either. Instead of standing properly sideways when perched, the back of her elbow jammed into solid rock while the not so solid stones slid from beneath her foot. Thistle tumbled down the slope breaking her left arm and ankle as both of her brothers were brutally slaughtered at only fifteen.
A very long day and night later, her Avora trainer was out checking snares and came across the trio. Laid out bleeding and dazed in a pile of rubble, she said,
"We tried to kill a walrus but I made a mistake!"
The trainer's face was a mask of deep anger as she answered curtly,
"Get home and cleaned up; you're a disgrace. When you got your brothers killed, you forgot one important life lesson: mistakes are never free."
