History: A studious child she never was much for a social life, not because she was unlikable, but because she did not seek it out.

She has dyed her greying bronze crest a little too much giving a sharp bronze color. Her half smiles and gold eyes are beguiling and draw you in.

Personality: She seems absolutely devoid of it. She stares off into space and will respond with overly literal and minimalist answers to questions. More though she will beg to come along on any journeys. She will attempt to stowaway on any ship she can in the hopes that it will get her further away.
