(Whoo, character rehash. x.x)



Person --
| Name: Aera Uhtric

| Dominant Side: Right-handed.

| Joints: She does indeed have knees, elbows, wrists, the works.

| Hair color: A dark shade of pink.
| Hair style: Her hair is cut a bit past shoulder-length, straight and parted in a common style.

Attire --
| Shoulders: Aera's shoulders are always bare, even when armored, to allow for a freer range of movement.
| Torso: She wears a sleveless top, colored black with red trim. The outfit is custom-tailored for her figure and very slightly oversized to prevent tearing when active. Hung from her neck is a metal, cross-shaped trinket without any personal religious significance.
| Arms: On the inside of her left bicep is a small, curved, two-pronged tattoo with a hole in its center.
| Hands: Aera wears two simple dark gloves with cut-down metal bracers by the wrists.
| Hips: A belt of three chains parallel to one another is worn at her waist, each link slightly deformed to attest to the belt's amateur, handmade origin. Attached to the belt in one way or another are a money pouch at her side, a well-made but cheap dagger at her rear, and two leather pouches in a pair of red and blue.
| Legs: Aera's bottoms of choice are usually some sort of leather or denim.
| Footgear: She normally wears comfortable, travel-worthy shoes; luxury footwear is appreciated and gladly worn but in no way a priority in Aera's mind.

Gear --
| Dagger:

• Alias: None
• Length: 1'6"
• Hilt: 6"
• Blade: 1"
• Recognized Owner: None
• A run-of-the-mill blade, longer than a knife but shorter than a small sword.

| Dust Pouches:

• On Aera's belt are two leather pouches, one blue and the other red. Within both are collections of fine-ground Water and Fire Elemental Stone, transorganic chalk mixed in either. The powders are utilized in a fashion not unlike gunpowder: When 'lit' by a spell of the corresponding element, it reacts and brings forth a blast controllable by the user, assuming the user has at least basic control over that element in whatever form. In contrast to the usage of normal Elemental Stones, this consumes the material in its entirety but is an effective tool for novices of elemental magic.

| Chainmail

• A medium-quality steel armor made of hundreds of ring-like interlocks. While arguably not as protective as plate armor, the mail is a fine deterrent from blades and blunt force trauma. It lacks sleeves and coverage below the arms in order to match with and stay hidden behind her clothing.

| Huge Sword Thing:

• Alias: None
• Length: 10'
• Hilt: 1'
• Blade: 9'
• Recognized Owner: Aera herself, though not by any sentience in the massive hunk of metal but instead a simple etching of her name in its hilt.
• Built of steel with a lead-centered blade, the 'weapon' is more fitting to be a giant's dagger than the personal tool of a young human girl. Even she finds it impractical, however; it's almost never carried on Aera's person in the rare occasions it is brought out of her hometown.

Rumors --
Aera lacks any notoriety far outside her hometown, but within, a few rumors cycle, mostly centered around the teen's immense physical strength. Some believe her parents to be adoptive, Aera herself of a different race than that of her mother and father. Some think her blessed or cursed. Others assume substance abuse developed her body, maybe with the help of a foreign alchemist or botanist. A few that know of Aera's developing magical study think she augments herself directly, though such a feat would be lost to someone only proficient with fire and water to a basic degree. While most rumors speak about the origins to Aera's inhuman strength of body, no stories at all are told of her endeavours, mainly due to her not really -doing- anything notable in public other than just looking odd.
