Description

Daena has brown hair with reddish tones (NOT streaks) which is shoulder length and curly. Her eyes, which are large and almond-shaped, are a striking green. On her face, her most petite feature is her mouth, which is described by an anonymous former lover as "perfect". Her nose is slightly wider than perfect, allowing her to pass for a male. Her skin is pale, but not so much so that she looks like a ceramic doll. She is tall for her sex at 5'6". Her build is extremely skinny, with almost no 'curves' whatsoever. Her muscles are long and toned, like a runner or an archer. She has no tattoos, but she does possess an interesting scar on her right shoulder. She normally wears a commoner's rags, preferring the loose garments of a male worker than a dress.

Personality

Personality: Daena is rather serious about things. She never ignores a major threat. She doesn't waste her time with meaningless hobbies and pointless crafts. She has grown into her sexuality and enjoys a bit of fun and flirtatiousness. She is also not afraid to speak her mind. (And she's not exactly a slut, but she will sleep with someone if they're nice and they aren't trying to persuade her to do something.)

Secrets: She doesn't hide her past from anyone who asks, but she won't share her heart with just anyone. You have to earn her trust first.

Personal quirks: She refuses to ride on boats if she has any other choice. She doesn't like fools or idiots.

Fears: Death, the future, the ocean, fire, commitment

Flaws: Daena is rather intolerent of others' opinions. Doesn't play nicely, doesn't work well with others. She also will save her own life and leave the others behind.

Weaknesses: She is rather weak when it comes to pure physical strength.
Strengths: However, she is an excellent runner, a decent archer, and a decent swordfighter. Also, she's quite humorous, in a sarcastic sort of way.

Moral code: Do unto others as they've done unto you. Your intuition isn't always right... just the majority of the time.

Equipment

Equipment: Since she travels a lot, she doesn't carry much. Everything she owns is in a small cloth satchel that she can string over her shoulder. This includes whatever money she has, some dried animal meat, a whittled flute, some flint, and a dagger.

Powers: Daena has no powers. However, for some reason, she is highly vulnerable to immediate effect magic, but she loses the effects of long-term curses very quickly.

History

Daena was born in a slovenly village; her mother died in labor. Her father was a drunk and abused her frequently. She is lower class, through and through. She finally ran away at age thirteen, when her father threatened to sell her into slavery to pay off debt. She began life on the road, where she sold herself off as a mercenary to pay for food and quarters. Now she works as a freelance mercenary and assassin.
