Appearance:
"Don't I stick out like a sore thumb?"
Avellana is rather short for women in her village, seeing as she stands at a mere 5'2, but her hair is her signature feature. The platinum blonde, which looks silver to a certain extent, makes her one of the prettiest girls in the village. Her dark brown eyes act as a supplement to her hair color. As for clothing, Avellana dresses quite plain. While she's tending the bar, she wears a slightly tattered dress that falls at her ankles. If she's going out, or attending one of the village festivals, she exchanges her work clothes for something a little more elegant, along with a fancy updo. She doesn't wear much jewelry, but she always wears the cross necklace her Father had the local blacksmith mend for her on her 10th birthday.

Personality:
"What you see on the surface is what's inside."
Avellana is the type of person that anyone in her small village would want to be around. She acts just like her mother did - kind, caring, sweet, helpful... she does everything a true lady of her time would do. When Avellana makes a friend, she stays loyal to them, and will do anything in the world for them. Avellana always strives to be and do her best, whether its a difficult or easy task. But, she tends to be cautious. Being sheltered by her mother as a child, Avellana is always cautious. But she is curious. She desires to see the world beyond her village- although she knows it will never happen. Whatever the day, Avellana is always in a good mood. It's all she has left to her character.

Flaws/Weaknesses:
"I'm not a Royal. I'm definitely not perfect."
Although nobody's perfect, Avellana only has a few flaws. One being that she is too nice to people. She tries her best to do everything she can for other people, and usually it backfires. People take advantage of Avellana's kindness, and often "walk all over her," so to speak. Avellana is also too trusting of people. That's why- even though she is acquaintances with every one- she tends to keep most information to herself, and only engages in small talk.

History:
"Why does it matter?"
Avellana has always been the standout within Stoncliff. From her odd-colored hair to her strange personality, every one in the village knows who she is. Avellana grew up with overbearing parents, who cared too much for their two children. This was subnormal, seeing as most parents did not get attached to their children. But, Avellana's parents were over attached. So, she lived her childhood within her family's small home, cleaning, cooking, and learning the ways of the home with her mother while her father went to work in the fields and her brother attended school. Her brother managed to teach her what he could about reading and writing, so despite not being formally educated, Avellana became literate. Her parents passed away in her teenage years, customary for the time period, so Avellana and her brother were left with the house. And the debts. Instead of being in the house, Avellana began to tend crops in the fields. It wasn't a hard job, and Avellana actually enjoyed it. That's what she's been doing since age 15, and she's gotten used to it. Now, that she has been claimed by one of the demons who cursed the village, however, her whole life- and her whole world- is about to change.
