She will often not speak, to avoid stuttering, and to allow herself the proper time to adapt to her current situation. How would your character express feeling Happy? Contained smiles, laughter.

If you make her proud, she may run up to you and push you about, it's simply how she expresses herself, and often perceives it as bonding. How does your character view Law and Authorities?

To lose her father’s bond-wife Elsa. The woman who raised her, and gave her the best life she could manage even in times where bread was scarce, and hearths were barren. Elsa was the biggest role model to Dagheidar, for her beauty and subtle prowess, even after her patch changed. Life Story Year of the fledgling On a cold december evening Ulvhild, Sol-Kvinne of her father Karl, gave birth to Dagheidar. But she was far from the home she would grow up in, as the marriage of Karl and Ulvhild was strained and distant living conditions were almost mandatory. Soon after she was birthed, she was shipped back almost alone to her father who lived in a small coastal village in Hedryll. Not even two weeks after her birth was had, she was in the arms of a woman she would always consider her mother, Karl’s bondwife Elsa. Her older half brothers were not too pleased with having to share the household with Dagheidar, but eventually treated her just as another sibling. The hunt Throughout Dagheidar’s childhood and pre-teen years, she surrounded herself with boys. But this was involuntary, as she had six half-brothers from Elsa, who gave her no sort of special treatment. Rough housing, scars and bloody noses were commonplace. Though Elsa let them live their lives independently, she was always there to patch a scraped knee and fix supper, all the while Karl was off raiding other settlements and cities across the Northern belt. While her father wasn’t often present in her early years, she still had a connection with him through the stories Elsa told. Her brothers taught her everything she needed to know about hunting, fishing, and fightings. Even in her current years she wrestles about with those she considers friends as a way of bonding. The grasp of winter Throughout Dagheidar’s late teenage years, she faced many hardships, shortage of food in her village, the threat of oncoming raids, and her brothers getting scent off to start their own independent lives. When the time came, her village was raided, and she was only barely saved from being taken as a slave and possible bond-wife, as though she was too frail to fend off the slaver, her brother got to her in the knick of time. This left her with a sense of weakness she was unable to cope with, causing her to abruptly leave her home at the age of 19, a year after the raid. Just at the curve of her eighteenth name day, she joined the School of Skagger. Filtered into Ulf-bein lodge, to begin training as a Vargklor. Hjemgang Her fifth year of training she made strong bonds with the women and men she trained with, and a deep respect for her fellow warriors, which she make a point of showing. After the devastation of the Burning of the north, she was left without her childhood home, dozens of her fellow students who were just as close as family, and a part of her being all together. She still cannot recover from the painful losses that came with the death of her friends and family, and sometimes refuses to come to terms with her own loss, even now that she has moved from her past to pursue a life in Regalia.
I would recommend expanding more on each question to at the very least two sentences, there a lot more room to grow and have more explanations or further cement pre-existing ones, though over all a lovely read! Tag me and highlight edits when you're done.
