    Personality and Abilities


    Personality Traits
    • (~) Religious - As a stout Sancellist Unionist, Ms. Perrin is devout and gives donations to the church every week, ranging between 50-300 regals. She owns many copies of the Unionist Creeds, and carries one on her at all times. She attends church and fully supports Freya Lo's position as a religious leader.
    • (-) Bitter - Lacking a husband, family, and any real friends, Ms. Perrin is spiteful. She dislikes women in general, and will only converse with them if necessary, because she sees them as competition. Also, unfortunately, she views men in a rather negative light as well; seeing them as brute and emotionless as compared to herself.
    • (-) Stubborn - Her opinions might as well be writ in stone. She is loud and proud with her opinions, whether she is wrong or not. She does not admit fault in herself, and even when recognizing her wrongness, she does not bow down to anyone but those demanded by Unionism.​
    • (+) Passionate - Audry is passionate about her hobbies; painting, sewing, hunting, knitting, and collecting. She has vast experience in all of these hobbies, having a more lavish life than one focused on combat. She runs a business of goods she makes, selling them for slightly above average pricing, making a decent profit off of
      anything she parts with.​
    • (+) Artistic - Ms. Perrin is a portrait painter, having been employed by noble families to paint their matriarchs and patriarchs over the years. She also does landscape paintings, and her Nimbinoldor, Zeusis, is often a centerpiece in her works.​
    • (~) Collector - Audry collects antiques and relics, having a vast collection of items to her name and in her house. From old records to old Ithanian paintings, her collection is ever growing and ever accumulating a hefty price tag. She alco collects minerals and crystals from the markets, having an entire three shelf wall storage full of them.​
    Strengths
    • Intelligent - Being middle aged, Ms. Perrin is experienced in life. She is witty, well-cultured, and well-connected. She has read hundreds of books, about alchemy, noble lineage, even elven psychology. She is wise with her money, and a good investor.​
    • Good Stamina - Despite her old age, in her good health, Audry is able to run quickly and for a long while. She can maintain an activity for hours at a time, whether it be a hobby or physical labor, she is up to the task. In cases where she is unable to keep running, she is good at hiding.
    • Healthy - Audry is very healthy, having a morning exercise routine, a good diet, and appropriate clothing for all seasons. Her immune system is in great condition, her metabolism works great for her age, and she does not suffer from arthritis or any sort of disease middle aged women usually suffer from.​
    • Tri-lingual - Audry speaks Common of course, but also Alt-Regalian, D’ithanie, and surprisingly, modern Elvish. Her knowledge of D’ithanie is due to her Ithanian upbringing. Her knowledge of Alt-Regalian and Modern Elvish are due to her reading and studies; multiple books on language and culture.​
    Weaknesses
    • Aged - She is not as limber as she once was. Despite being in good health, she is not combat ready in any sense of the word. She is more often given to giving her assailants money if she is attacked. She is currently also going through menopause, which makes her rather moody, and sometimes fragile.​
    • No combat experience - Not trained in any sort of combat, Ms. Perrin lacks even basic weapon skills beyond slashing her dagger out at an assailant. No footwork, no hand-eye coordination on that subject. When she is engaged in combat, it is more likely she will throw regals at her problem until it goes away (literally, sometimes.) She is incredibly cowardly when it comes to physical altercations.
    • Lonesome - Unmarried, with no family besides two distant cousins, Audry does not have children, and very little friends that stick around without money. Since she is such a prudish woman, and not to mention xenophobic (exclusing Tigran, for reasons stated below), she makes for poor company.​
    • Impulsive - Her tongue is always on edge. She will speak out about anything she disagrees with, and will insult other “inferior” races. She is not impulsive with her money, though. Her sharp tongue lands her in hot water when she is the minority in the space.​

    Life Story


    Birth and childhood

    Audry was born to two wealthy vineyard owners in central Ithania in the year 252 AC. Her childhood was lavish, even her room was curtained in lace. She enjoyed the highest end toys and attention from expensive nannies. All of her needs were taken care of.

    Her parents owned seventy acres of land for their wine business - a vineyard of impressive size. She grew up alongside underpaid tigran workers, and made friends with the children of them. As most Tigran spoke Common Elvish, she began to hook on to some of the words, which she would later in life strive to complete her knowledge of the language.


    Around Audry’s tenth birthday, she first began to take an interest in the arts. Singing, dancing, drawing, even knitting became like secondary functions to her. She received her first falconry bird, a baby Nimbinoldor, and domesticated it on meat scraps. She took an interest in trophy hunting, and used the bird to help her on her trips. She toured Daendroc with her family, before an infected water source in a rural outpost infected her parents with Cholera. Without knowing the cure for this disease at the time, her parents grew very sick and left her orphaned at the age of fourteen, but with a substantial amount of money to her name. She inherited the house, the workers, and the vineyard. With no family besides two distant cousins to turn to, she was given the option to live on her own, with the workers as guardians.

    Adulthood

    At the age of eighteen, with her rights fully instilled as an adult landowner, she sold the business, preferring to move to Regalia, the Holy City. Audry was told stories of the city as a girl, a city where Unionism presides, where the Holy Emperor himself lived. She bought passage on a ship to the Regalian Empire’s capital city. In the first few years, she bought stock in a blacksmith company, which steadily rose in value. She was able to buy a house in the Old Ithanian district of the city, absorbing herself into the rich cultural melting pot. In this time, she, having bought her way up the ladder of society, began to research Alt-Regalian, a language usually only reserved for noble families.

    On her twenty-fifth birthday plus one month, her Nimbinoldor pet passed away, and she immediately invested in another. This one, named lovingly after her favorite flower, Hibiscus, was a female, already five years of age and domesticated on a diet of insects and whatever else it caught, including other small birds. Audry moved to the outskirts of the city, preferring to be close enough to the wilderness to go out and hunt with her bird. She spent the next ten years of her life quietly, compared to the excitement of her early life.

    In those years leading up to her thirty-fifth birthday, Audry read up on many different crafts - sewing, painting, collecting, and even fletching (for a brief two months.) She used these crafts to open her own odds and ends store - perhaps one of the first knick knack stores to actually profit from the selfish streets of Regalia. In the shadows of that business, she also involved herself slightly in a bootleg alcohol business, one that brewed out from under the nose of tax collectors.

    Once again, at Fifty years old, her falconing bird passed away. Like she did fifteen years ago, she went and bought a young Nimbinoldor from a merchant of a caravan crew. She tamed it herself, training this one also on meat scraps, like her first bird. She named is Zeusis, and he can usually be spotted flying a few dozen feet above her head, or perched neatly on her shoulder.

    In the current times, with all the political turmoil, she thrives on rumors, and puts in coin to elections. She still keeps her stock in a few shops around the city, mostly ones run with permission of the queen. In the violence, she is able to sell alcohol to businesses with thirsty soldiers. While not often, she does partner with The Corpse in the Gutter, selling them bootleg spirits that have been tampered with Vocadine.

    I will be reviewing this character sheet.

    Expand on this trait a bit more, at least another sentence or two. How exactly does her religious tendencies show in her day-to-day activities? What sorts of things encourage more religious responses out of her?



    I find that these two traits are very similar to each other. I'd recommend summarizing them into one main point and coming up with a new negative trait.

    I would replace this Strength with something Physical-related. Aside from her being Healthy, does she have any sort of perks about her build?

    Expand on this Weakness. What would she do if she were forced or put into a fight? What would her reactions be like, where would she fall the most in terms of opponents and tactics used against her?

    Rename this to something like "Isolated," "Lone Wolf" or something of the sort.

    Make any and all changes in blue. Tag me in a reply when you're done! @Betterer
