Description:
When you look at Tesla you can tell she's a non nonsense type, she wears clothing to cover her body not to look "pretty". No makeup, no jewelry nothing special, for her it's all practicality. Her hair is long and a dark almost black brown, she brushes it and sometime pulls it back with a piece of leather to keep it out of her face. Some would look at Tesla and call her plain especially for someone of Silvian ancestry. But she really doesn't care much, she is a hunter; she typically wears leather clothes with soft fur linings. Her eyes are very dark, so much they almost look black.

MENTALITY
Quirks: Tesla very rarely shows emotion.
Fears: Fire, a result of a bad experience she had as a child.
Likes: The outdoors, nature, quiet music, having a good hunt.
Dislikes: Obnoxious people, when things don't go as planned, being threatened.
Personality:
Most human males refer to Tesla as "the cast iron bitch", because of her lack of expressing emotion. It is not that she is emotionless; she just feels that showing emotion only adds to the problem and can sometimes hinder herself and others. Even so Tesla has a habit of making smart ass remarks especially towards men. Not that she doesn't like men (oh believe me she does), she dislikes men's attitudes towards women of any race. There are few that see emotion in Tesla, and typically they are very close to her, someone she would consider like family. Tesla also has trust issues, something that came from a hard childhood.

HISTORY
Life

Martial Status: Single, she was engaged once but it didn't get anywhere.
Family: Tesla was the only daughter of a Human man by the name of Liam Herot and Silvarian by the name Linesstea. She had three older brothers who became warriors and all died in battle.
History:
Tesla was raised human for the most part, her father was a soldier turned blacksmith so she grew up playing in the soot and dirt of her fathers shop. Her three older brothers taught her how to hunt, fish and fight which got her into into trouble on more than one occasion. Her mother was hardly ever around and spent most of her time with her people, sometimes especially when Tesla was ill her mother would come to help with, her but as soon as Tesla was well again she would be on her way. This was something that was hard for Tesla to understand and her father explained that it was her mother's nature to be aloof. Despite all this Tesla grew to act more like a human child.

But not everyone was happy with Liam and his half breed children, when Tesla's brother left home to join the Army, someone came in the night and set their house and the shop ablaze. Tesla was able to claw her way out but her father did not. This is when her mother came and brought the child back home with her. It was quite the culture shock at first for Tesla but she soon adapted to her new way of life in the land of the Silvarians. Many time she was heckled and teased by the other full blooded children but Tesla soon began to progress and prove her worth to the people.

When she was a teenager many of the other Silvarian children her age were that still children; because she aged more like a human. So Tesla's mother sent her to live with a tribe of Amaranth, once again she felt alone. This is when she decided her emotions were holding her back and that she needed to suppress them as much as she could. She excelled in the Amaranth community and soon made her way into the hunting parties. She hopes to keep this life she has made going not wanting to go through with another major change.
