Kinship
Outward Appearance

Appearance: One could say, she is not particularly beautiful or fair, not at least if you view beauty in traditional manner. She is fairly tall and muscular for a woman and in general her outer appearance is, in many ways, manly. She bears two scars on her face, one on her right cheek and another on her chin. She often has heavy dark circles under her eyes.

 

Her hair is fiery red and often oily, she tends to comb it back. The oil holds it still, nicely. This beautiful hairdo experienced a grave loss just recently as she lost a bunch of her hair during a brawl with Flagteun, leaving a bald spot on her head. 

 

In combat: This tall woman is very strong and has much endurance as she is very fit and muscular. She can swallow almost any amount of pain as easily as a spoonful of porridge. As a downside to this, her movements are crude and she often just uses force on force in combat as she has no training methodology. She is not very good at evading either and she usually just 'takes' the hits as they come. Though now a days she has learnt a little about evading a strike, from her friend Carlotta.

 

Persona: She might seem to be solely cocky, rude and hot-headed, but beneath the lava surface she actually holds very honorable intentions. She would never hit a child nor a weak lass and she would never kick a beaten man. In fact she might help a beaten man back on their feet, even if it was her who beat them up. She considers lying dishonorable and speaks very bluntly, which some might view as 'rudeness'.  

 

”I’ve slaughtered men. I'm not really worried about being polite.”
 

She is prejudiced against Dwarves and Elves. She has little knowledge but she is somewhat smart street-wise, though her wit is often surpassed by her temper. She sometimes soothes her fury with massive amounts of beer, and can be later on found passed out near the Inn. 

 

Skills: She can not write, read nor swim. She however speaks fluently Westron and Rohirric. She is also an excellent rider and knows how to manage a farm.  She tends to learn practical skills quickly. 

 



A strange hooded man offers her a vial of poison, asking her to use it to poison her enemy. Aureliyn looks at him with disdain,

 

"Why would I do something as cowardly as to poison the man? ...When I can just honestly punch his face from the front? I don't know who you are, but I already know you carry no honour in your actions. You seek to poison a man through another person, that's as low as it can get, chap. I'm brave enough, to face my enemies."

 

Background

Background: Aureliyn hails from Rohan, from a small farmers' settlement northeast of Edoras. She is farmer Aomir's eldest daughter. She has (or had) two little sisters whom went by the names Adaelyn and Aevalyn. She considered them both as foolishly adventurous and helplessly naive and saw it was her duty, as the firstborn, to keep them from the harm's way. She rarely succeeded in this.

As a child Aure dreamt of one day becoming a member of The Royal Guard of Edoras, later on realizing that a farmer's daughter would not be accepted among the ranks of such men. She grew bitter, but trained herself to become a fairly good fighter. She learnt most of her skills by starting fistfights with the boys of her age. 

When she reached her twenties Orcs and Hill-men were already a growing menace at the borders of Rohan, raiding the farms. She became a farm guard and swiftly gained recognition as she was able to push back every assault attempt she encountered. 

The grief her little sisters brought to her seemed not to end even though the flock had almost reached adulthood. Carefree Aevalyn who enjoyed climbing, was once climbing upon a mountain's ridge when a sudden gust of wind swept her into her death. The family took her death heavily and few months after this absurdly tragic event Adaelyn ran away, never to be seen again. Maddened with fury and grief Aure traveled to seek her. She was rarely able to catch her track as she was not a particularly good tracker and she lacked the skill to 'ask around' politely. 

While seeking Adaelyn, she was found by Aevalyn, who some years ago hadn't died in the dramatic fall down the cliff. How this happened, is another story.
