Personality: At first glance Tulia is quiet and shy. Its once you get to know her that you realize that her being quiet is not by choice. Shes not shy, shes watching and listening. Tulia smiles and lets her dancing speak for her. She spends her time at the bar she works at dancing, and when shes not dancing shes waiting tables. All the locals know her. Everyone speaks to her, almost as if she were a bartender. All their troubles, their guilt, their happiness. For good reason, Tulia is one of the most trustworthy people you will ever meet. To most people, that is. She keeps their secrets and only uses it when she has a job and never in a way that would break anyones trust in her.

Advantages: Tulia is like a spider. She'll climb her way into the tiniest spot completely silent and wait for the perfect time to catch her 'prey' before leaving with it just as silently. Has the complete and utter trust of most of the more less fortunate community. Knows just about everything there is to know about the workings of the 'underworld'.
Disadvantages: Tulia was born mute. She is unable to verbally communicate with anyone around her, which makes her work solo most of the time. No one trusts her to be able to warn them in time. She also has a bit of a temper that gets her into more than a fight or two. Her size makes most of these fights almost impossible for her to win.
A brief history: Tulia has been in the slums her entire life. Her mother was a druggy who became knocked up at a young age. Luckily, the only thing that Tulia aquired from the nine months of involuntary drug use was the inability to speak. It could have been much worse. The people at the bar her mother worked at took care of her. They made sure someone was always there to keep a roof over her head as her mother lay passed out on the floor. As she grew she rarely even saw her mother, taking more to the people on the streets than the woman who birthed her.
It was on the streets that Tulia witnessed her first dancer through the window of a bar she was not old enough to go into. This wasn't like the bar she was raised in...no...this dancing was emotional not sexual. Tulls wanted to dance like that and was willing to do anything to learn. She began pick pocketing to get the money she needed for dance lessons. As the years progressed she continued her lessons and was molded into a beautiful dancer. Her other skills progressed as well. No longer did she rely on simple pick pocketing, she was an accomplished thief.
She dances in the bar she grew up in, mixing the emotional and sexual dancing to produce movement fit for the environment around her. On her down time, if you know who to talk to, she will take the occasional job.
Appearance: Tulia is such a tiny little thing, weighing in at only about 92lbs. Long black hair with a bit of natural curl to it. Despite her size, her body still has shape to it. Her eyes are as crystal blue as the sea set in lightly tanned skin.
Clothing style: Jeans, tank tops, and boots
Height: 4'11
Build: Very small, but still contains the curviness of a woman. She is lean and muscled, keeping her body well toned for both her careers.
Distinguishing Features: Ears have 2g black plugs in them. Her naval is pierced with a black hoop. No tattoos. Scar to the left of her naval, a few inches over, from being shot in the abdomen.
Other information: Tulia can speak sign language. There are many regulars at the bar, with whom she grew up, that can also. She carries a little note pad and pencil in her back pocket in case someone can not understand what it is she is trying to say to them.
