Outward Appearance

Upon a rare glimpse of her, one would notice that she seems to be both young and old at the same time.

 

Her hair is shot through with streaks of grey and white and perhaps, once upon a time, her hair had been a very dark shade of brown. She most often leaves it unbound and wind-tusseled. Occasionally, she can be spotted wearing a braid here and there for ornamentation, though for what remains to be decipihered.

 

Her eyes are the color of new bark upon a young oak tree and yet they seem to hold both the fire of youth and weight of age and tragedy of hard-learned wisdom within them.

 

Her skin is warm tawny-chestnut color and has few wrinkles or signs of age upon it but her hands are those of someone used to laboring in the wilds with many callouses, scars, and minor abrasions.

 

To those who are tall, she would seem short but, in truth, she is quite average height amongst the cumulative race of Men. Her frame is quite slender, like a young sapling and, when she walks, she tends to sway slightly.

 

Depending on where she is seen or what company she keeps - if she keeps any company at all - she can be found in various amounts of outfits, depending on whether she wants to make herself known or blend in well. All of her clothing appears to be extremely well-worn. 

 

This is character is meant to be psuedo-mythological.

Background

Though the ancients and the wise are long gone, there are those who still remember...

Amongst Cymry and even the forgoil, tales are told of a woman, neither young nor old, who often wanders through the hills and woods of Enedwaith and Dunland... perhaps even beyond to the plains of Rohan, the craggy cliffs of Angmar, and the gilded shores of Gondor. There are those who say she is benevolent to those her mean her no harm. Others insist she is an evil spirit, seeking to upend their tenuous peace and survival. And still, many cannot seem to decide if the tales of her being born from the base of a great oak tree are true; that she is not altogether a Woman. Or, perhaps, she may have been a mere Woman once and, if she was, she is no longer.

What conclusion will you come to, I wonder?

Friends
Everyone and no one.
Relatives
All are long since dead.
Rivals/Enemies
Everyone and no one.
Loves
So few things these days.
Hates
Unnatural and undue cruelty, though many things in life are cruel by nature.
Motivation
To walk the road less traveled by.
Quotes
"The heart can hold shadows darker than night."
