"People used to tell me I had my father's eyes and my mother's mouth - but I am learning that neither was a compliment."

There is nothing particularly remarkable about the girl - tall for a woman but short for a man, she has the build of someone who has spent a great deal of their life running but not carried very much. Her hair - brown, and not quite curly - has grown out down her back, though it still has the uneven ends from being cut off hastily and too short, and is generally worn up in a way that disguises the length. Her eyes are brown, or green, depending on how generously one defines 'green.' Only visible in the wrong light, she has several tiny scars along her cheeks where she must have picked at scabs until they healed wrong as a child. In her native Gondor, the woman is usually dressed in linen or wool in shades of cream, brown, and blue.
