Character Name: Charlotte Chase Ahnric
Nickname (Optional): Charlie Chase
Age: 14
Gender: Female, though she dresses adrogynously to look like a boy and has an ambiguous face (looks more female with feminine clothing, male with masculine clothing...)
Land of Origin: Grew up in Heartland (was born near King's Cross)
Appearance (formal and informal clothes as well as height, eye and hair colour, and overall appearance): when not wearing boy's clothes or military regime standard clothing she prefers to look pretty in frilly dresses with her hair curled to complement her extra long eye lashes, though she ususally keeps in a locked chest plenty of outfits and make up for lots of appearances from street beggar, dark clothes to hunt in, her white dress to blend in during a wedding, and many styles of boy's clothing.
Dirty Blonde Hair because she usually leaves the hair putty in place so no one knows it's naturally Bright Blonde
Light Blue Eyes like Ice
Slightly Tanned Skin usually year round
Weapon (Optional): stilettos and one hunting dagger from her Da
Armour (Optional): usually none or light leather
Personality: whatever you want it to be, she would tell you with a wink and a smile, but as much as she is lack~a~daisical and naive, don't let her lazy attitude fool you, it's a front. if she isn't out on a con job, she's usually that lazy to relax. when she is working, it's with the intent to make money and/or connections, or mark her next target.
Form of the gift (Additive and Subtractive, Prophecy, War Wizard, etc.) (Optional): latent ability for a sorceress (classical four elements)
Affinity for Air~ she has small spurts of the ability so far making the air around her stopping her movements from being noisey as she is coming into her gift other than gales when she is mad and surprisingly hasn't noticed that she is what is creating them... lol
Talents (Innate Abilities non~Magical): is Ambidexterous, can use Thieve's shorthand gestures for communicating, and is literate but can naturally act like something she is not (illiterate, dumb, mute, etc...) as she has great potential for acting and theatrics
Past or Current Career(s) (Soldier in the D'Haran army, wizard for the Old World, etc.) (Optional): currently, is an apprentice to an herbmistress for learning simple first aide as well as a courier under a guise on her days off, or when she tells the Mistress and her Madame of the shoppe of her family emergencies (yeah, right)
Short History: Her mother's line is D'Haran descent, as her skin and eyes suggest so. Her Great great great grandmother lived in D'Hara before the walls to divide the land went up. Each woman in her line has lived a long time, only having children after the age of 28. Charlotte grew up with her grandmother after her own mother died from what we would now know as cancer. Her mother had a tumor that ruptured her brain. The stress of her mom never quite learning how to control the sorceress' gift ending up accelerating the death. Charlotte's mother was loving enough, but really resented magical ability in herself and her children, even though her own mother was adept at it. So after mother died, Charlotte lived with her grandmother for a few years until she was old enough to become apprenticed off to an herbmistress and her business partner.
Having been a rough and tumble kind of kid, Charlotte ususally hung out with boys as they weren't put off by her since she already sees herself as a tomboy. She is associated with a couple of local gangs of children who spend more time rough housing than actually being a gang. One of the older kids' father taught Charlotte how to fight dirty and use a stiletto, and upon her besting him, gave her his proud hunting knife. His name was Chase. So, after leaving her hometown to work for the women in the shoppe, she took on his name as her middle name. It was Chase who suggested she adopt a uniform name like Charlie to blend in more easily.
Charlie isn't even aware that being an apprentice will kickstart her career into becoming an assassin. She knows the older women are hiding something from her, but considering her own secrets, she still trusts them completely, with her life and her effort to prtect their shoppe from thugs. Something is bound to happen soon, as the shoppe women are more perceptive than Charlie realizes, and her crimes and abilities are about to catch up with her, quite quick!~
That and some woman keeps tailing her that she has to lose whether she is dressed as a boy or as a girl, she's like, "What's that about, I like boys not older women..." *cringe* The strange thing the woman can be fooled for a while, but ususally picks up her trail every couple of days. Yeah, she's got a stalker, and boy does Charlie have a surprise encounter for her... *wink*
She never did realize that it was the shoppe keepers that sent for the Priestess of Light, whoops *sweatdrop*
