Height: 5’6”

Weight: 127 lbs.

Appearance:
Adira has average curves for her age, maybe slightly better defined because of her hard laboring, with a small waist and average C cups. Her skin tone average, borderline tan and her eyes are hazel (altering between green and brown). Her hair is a light brown color reaching just above her shoulders and she rarely does anything special to it, usually just leaving it down (although she typically wears a helmet when she’s riding). Adira has a nature scent about her; smelling of the dense forests, icy waterfalls, rolling plains and vast mountains that she lives in. All in all Adira looks like a strong, young, independent woman, her body and posture only complimenting the image. Though not of exquisite beauty, Adira is a beautiful young woman... of course this fact may be better known if only she were to take off her riding gear once and awhile.


Outfits:
Adira rarely dresses up except in her riding gear consists of her helmet/goggles, leather top and riding skirts as well as leather bracers. Often she wears only her riding clothes and never anything fancier, for she does not have access to such fineries where she lives. The only two decent items of clothing she has are;
1. the dress she fled in eight years ago (link) and it is short for she does not have the proper fabric to lengthen it and
2. Her mother’s dress, the one Adira is wearing in this link
She also has some colder-weather gear including boots, arm bracers and a long cloak made of rabbit's fur (two ears sewn onto the hood at the demands Vastrin). There is also a longer riding skirt (made of rabbit's fur and leather) and a second top made of slightly heavier leather withfur lining on the inside that covered a little more skin without restricting movement, for colder climates. All of her clothing is packed in Fel's saddle bags along with some other supplies.

Accessories/Weapons:
Adira has a helmet with a pair of goggles that she rarely takes off, even when not riding Fell. All of her weapons are enchanted. Her sword, Stenr-jierda (also translated into “Stone-Breaker” in the Ancient Language), stays in its sheath the majority of the time and has been imbued with the power to cut through the strongest metal or mineral from the earth - supposedly with a powerful enough blow it would be able to make mountains crumble, however she'd never been eager to test this rumor. She also carries on her a hunting knife with a bone handle that never dulls and similar enchantments - the ability to slice through any material, though only if this is what the wielder truly wanted (as in, if she had to cut the throat of a loved one, the knife would be no better than a butter knife). In the pouch at her side are crude throwing knives. On her back is a quiver of arrows (which she also makes herself) and her long bow, with a string that'd never slack and a bow that'd never break. Being a hunter by nature she typically prefers long-rang combat, however she fights melee extremely well too.

Scars, Tattoos, Jewelry and/or Piercings:
She has a great number of small and medium sized scars from where a stray Fanghur claw or tooth cut her flesh. Her right ear is also pierced and she has a black, perfume-bottle shaped earring that she wears for protection; however this "protection" is not for her but for her loved ones as it contains an elixir of death, as she knows that were she to be captured then it would threaten the lives of all those at home. And she would rather take her own life than bring upon the deaths of her family and friends.

Personality:
Young, brave and determined with natural leadership qualities. Adira is extremely head-strong. If you tell her she just can’t do something, she’ll do everything she can to prove you wrong. Her limits are higher than a dragon dares fly and when she’s put her mind to something, very few things can stop her. Her stubbornness is not entirely a bad thing, however. When it comes to protecting the things she loves, she won’t stop until their safe. If you can earn her respect she will do what you say without question, but it is very hard to earn that level of respect. She likes plans but if one doesn't seem to be working she’ll act on instinct (and it usually works out... most of the time). Around large crowds she gets rather nervous, since she isn’t used to seeing many people, and would much rather be in the forest. But when talking to individuals (or small groups of individuals) she's pretty friendly. A heart that seeks the approval of others and fears for her loved ones hides beneath her fearless heroine exterior. Adira is still only a teenager and her emotions still play into her actions (however deep down she may push them sometimes). Often she daydreams of the day she can ride into battle upon Fell and imagines herself in the mist of battle, perhaps even becoming a famous warrior and bringing the glory and respect to the Fanghur. The only way to tell if she’s crushing on someone is that she will try to talk to them and she’ll treat them as a friend she’s known for ages.



Bad Habits:
Adira has a fondness of dreaming because her dreams are so vivid, like her mother’s. They often help her sort through problems and occasionally will show her a piece of the past or future. This means she takes nearly every chance she can to sleep.

Likes:

*a fair fight
*helping others
*being outside
*music
*animals
*dreams
*praise

Dislikes:

*Loathes King Nazar with a passion (see History)
*the sound of something shattering/breaking
*large crowds
*rockslides
*liquor of any sort
*being told that she "just can't"
*traitors/liars/cheaters/slackers

Hobbies:

*hunting
*cooking
*singing / playing music
*training in both melee and throwing weapons
*riding/breeding Fanghur

Fears:

*The discovery and mass murder of the Fanghur breeding grounds
*the enormous number of deaths that Fanghur and their riders will amount to when the attack on King Nazar is launched
*losing Fell (or any loved ones)

Strengths:
Adira has a way with wild creatures, especially reptiles. She can tame all sorts of animals with ease and when she starts fighting she’s not going to give up. Any goal set in front of her she will do most anything necessary to complete it. Totally trust worthy with any secrets and you can always count on her to have your back. Adira is also a very good melee fighter and prefers a challenge. If she and her Fanghur, Fell, fight together in combat they are very, very strong. Adira enjoys helping others in nearly any way she can and is a talented hunter. With her keen tracking and sneaking abilities she could easy hunt down a rat and surprise it from behind in a field of dry leaves (or at least that's what people have said). Though she is extremely skilled with a bow and arrows, she believes its important to be a jack of all trades rather than a master of one, so she also uses spears, javelins, darts, daggers and any other sharp throw-able objects. It's well known that her aim is flawless and in order to keep up her skills so finely tuned she is often seen practicing, almost absentmindedly. She also knows some magic, though hardly enough to be considered an apprentice.

Weaknesses:
Though she knows how to use basics magics, she's not very good at it and so she tends to avoid it in battle (unless desperation forces her to). When angered she becomes fearless, which means she does not take into account the risks or consequences of her actions. She’s extremely headstrong and will keep fighting until she is physically unable to fight. Her Fanghur, Fell, has to come to her rescue on many occasions and they find it very hard to function without one another. Though Fell is one of her greatest strengths, he is also one of her greatest weaknesses as they are so close Adira would sacrifice anything without hesitation were Fell at risk.

Special Powers/Abilities:
A talent for melee weapons and skilled at throwing projectiles as well as long range (which is typically her preference). Adira possesses a gift for befriending wild creatures and understanding them (though she'd cannot directly understand them, they seem to be able to understand her fine). Though she only has the basic knowledge of reading, writing she learns very quickly. She's very skilled in first aid due to her years of having to care for injuries to both herself and others. A talent for cooking as well as making music, with a strong preference to more chilling songs rather than cheerful ones. Though she is far from being considered a wizard, she does know some basic magics (such as making flame without flint, healing minor injuries, casting small bolts of lightning from her fingers, creating a shield, etc etc) that she deem essential to her travels and in/after battle. Adira inherited from her mother the gift of dreaming where she dreams very vividly and with have a vision of the past or near future. The visions they are very rare and come only on occasions (for example: when King Nazar's army was coming to draft the village’s men). Adira has had only one vision in her life time (see Ambition/Life-Long Dream), the rest of her dreams are just dreams normal dreams that are very vivid.

Ambition/Life-long Dream:
Adira (literally) dreams of the day that the Fanghur will be accepted into the rebel army. Then, after joining the Rebellion, the Fanghur and their riders will charge into the battle and fight against King Nazar. She was only her way to meet the rebels when she was whisked away to The Rend.

Occupation/Job: Works with her small family to take care of the Fanghur.
