| Kinship |
| Outward Appearance | Derosyn is a Hobbit of Fallohide descent, with a tanned yet gentle complexion lightly teased with freckles, her eyes are strikingly blue and deep, giving off a very alert if not fierce look in her eye. Light strawberry blonde hair graces her fringe and she is often seen wearing a somewhat tatted but sturdy leather hat. She would also wear a checkered neckerchief that would drape down her shoulders. Derosyn is a tad deal slimmer and taller than most Hobbits, standing at about 3'7" and significantly less wide than most of her kind. This could be down to her Fallowhide heritage or simply unlike most Hobbits she seems to be very active and almost always full of energy. A gardener and crop grower by trade, Derosyn seems to be rather connected to the Earth, it is not unusual to see her with the bottom of her trousers and feet covered in dirt. As for attire she tends to wear simple clothes and is very fond of her brown hat and checkered neckerchief. Though she tends to be somewhat scruffy at the best of times and is not one to wear a dress she does have more formal and fancy attire if the occasion ever requires for it, she's fond of earthy colours such as greens and browns. A lover of woods and fields alike, Derosyn often wanders into the forests, she enjoys foraging for nuts, berries and mushrooms and knows a lot about the local woods. A quiet soul by nature despite her rather extroverted personality, Derosyn can sometimes appear quiet and lost in thought if something is on her mind. She is quite an enigma |

Background
Derosyn was initially from the Brockenborings of the Shire where her father worked in the quarries of Scary, Derosyn grew up poor yet proud, tiling the garden and growing crops for her particularly large family seemed to be one of her most fondest pass times, though Derosyn was known to wander astray and find herself further and further afield from her familiar village... She was incredibly fond of the woods and used to wander alone for hours exploring...
How she ended up in Staddle even she can't rightly remember. Derosyn does visit The Shire though her parents are ever more disapproving of her new way of life.
'Rosyn has a fairly childlike mentality and is easily distracted, she is aloof and very much a scatterbrain, though she is for the most part sensible and well mannered.
It would be correct in saying that Derosyn explores the world with all of her senses, she can be very touchy-feely and at times simply can't keep her hands to herself, her impulsiveness often lands her in trouble, even if it's something as small as stealing mushrooms from Barliman's pantry. She is a sensitive creature and is not afraid to express herself, even when it may be considered inappropriate.
Derosyn is good hearted and extremely affectionate, her innocence and naive nature often catches people off guard, it is almost impossible to read her, she does as she will and can at times be considered very unpredictable at her worst times.
But despite her attitude, she is a fairly wise Hobbit and more worldly than would give her credit for, Rosyn is very mothering and grows attachments to people easily and will try to protect and nurture them however she can.
Derosyn also has a fond interest in far away places though she's far too comfortable in Breeland to be going on any silly adventures. She tends to let the 'Big Folk' do that sort of thing.
While she is perfectly confident around the Big Folk and has learned to slip out of the way and avoid large carts with ease, she has always had a nervous fear of dogs, especially large slobbery mutts!
