Astrid is a hothead and a firecracker, but she is also moved by good purpose. She is a strong, charismatic character, due to her lineage but also tempered by the hard lifestyle in the mountains of Gyr Abania. Generally neutral towards new acquaintances, but she takes time to give trust. She considers everyone as a possible ally and comrade (except garleans), and likes to make new friends, but believes that trust must be gained.

Astrid is a hothead and a firecracker, but she is also moved by good purpose. She is a strong, rough but charismatic character, tempered by the hard lifestyle in the mountains of Gyr Abania. Generally a bit hostile towards new acquaintances, she takes time to give trust. She however does like to make new friends, but believes that trust must be gained.
  
She is a skilled blacksmith and armorer, but she outshines in axe and sword fighting, and throwing a punch. Her adoptive family taught her some techniques from the Fist of Rhalgr monks, fighting with axe, sword and shield, and spear. She later on learned about Magitek from friends, and is still studying it.

+
Astrid can read and write altho she is not too great at it, she can also sing, she has a beautiful voice although she usually sings by herself, or when she is drunk.
  
 
While she can brew, she is terrible at cooking food. Anything which requires more than simply be boiled or grilled, she would probably burn it to ashes. In Ala Mhigo they had stark food, and she was never taught the fine art of cooking, as usually grilling a steak and warming up some milk was more than enough.

She has ice cold clear eyes, some freckles, and a small but plump mouth. Long light blond hair, usually kept long and wild, with her sides shaved and the rest left loose and/or braided.

She is relatively short for her race but she looks strong and muscular, clearly someone who trains a lot. Her skin is pale, her hands are hardened by the use of axe and blacksmith tools.
  
  
She uses Magitek accessories such as jewellery and optics. Her strongest armor is made with steel plates and chains she forged herself and had them sewed to hard hide and leather from a skilled leather worker in the Dravanian Forelands.
+
She favors leather, fur and chainmails but in warm areas she usually goes for something lighter, also because she hates hot weather. She forged her own knives and knuckles, while her axe was a gift from her family. It is extremely rare seeing her wearing girly clothes, and she mostly feels awkward in them.
When she is not wearing heavy armor, she favors an Ul’dahn or tribal look. While it is not common to see her in a girly dress, sometimes she wears it and rocks it hard.
 
  
  
While her lineage goes back high, she didn’t take much gil with her, and she is not a money-maker, nor she is interested in material goods. She thinks that knowledge and power obtained through hard working, is the way to go.
+
While she is not much of a money-maker, she does like power and the power that comes from money.
She has a warm, strong and charming voice which lets out her ability as a singer.

P E R S O N A L I T Y & A B I L I T I E S


✯★☆✮

Astrid is a hothead and a firecracker, but she is also moved by good purpose. She is a strong, rough but charismatic character, tempered by the hard lifestyle in the mountains of Gyr Abania. Generally a bit hostile towards new acquaintances, she takes time to give trust. She however does like to make new friends, but believes that trust must be gained.

She is a skilled blacksmith and armorer, but she outshines in axe and fist fighting.

Astrid can read and write altho she is not too great at it, she can also sing, she has a beautiful voice although she usually sings by herself, or when she is drunk.

While she can brew, she is terrible at cooking food. Anything which requires more than simply be boiled or grilled, she would probably burn it to ashes. In Ala Mhigo they had stark food, and she was never taught the fine art of cooking, as usually grilling a steak and warming up some milk was more than enough.


Good Traits: bold, bright, brave, capable, charismatic, confident, dependable, fierce, hard-working, loyal, passionate, persistent, strong.


Negative Traits: hot-tempered, defensive, impatient, conceited, quarrelsome, rowdy, stern, unforgiving, vengeful, rugged, ruthless, moody, cocky.


--


- LIKES AND DISLIKES –

Astrid can hold a drink, she was probably already drinking mead as a cough medicine when she was a kid. She favours mead and strong ales when she can, otherwise she is fine with milk and spring water.

Her favourite food is red meat, popotos, eggs, mushrooms, bread, cheese, anything simple is good.

She believes her race should be preserved and yearns to meet another Highlander devoted to Rhalgr like her. She likes big, muscular and tough men and finds Elezen quite ridiculous and girly obviously, and while she tolerates their presence, she doesn’t like Twelveswood Elezen at all as she considers them stuck up at the least.

As a beginner in magical arts and only experienced in physical fights, she evaluates the strength of her opponent barely based on their size and the size of their weapon, unless they have a gun.

Even tho she is devoted to Rhalgr, she sees other people’s devotion towards different religions with an eye of respect. As her family was forbidden to worship Rhalgr, she came to a conclusion that everyone should be free to pursue their own beliefs, and she will be ready to fight for everyone’s freedom to do so.


- PROFESSION –

Astrid believes in hard work, and when she is not hunting for bounties, she takes commissions as a blacksmith, armorer, brewer.



A P P E A R A N C E


Lady Warrior

Astrid is approximately 37 years old, although her face looks a bit younger. She has ice cold clear eyes, some freckles, and a small but plump mouth. Long light blond hair, usually kept long and wild, with her sides shaved and the rest left loose and/or braided. She is relatively short for her race but she looks strong and muscular, clearly someone who trains a lot. Her skin is pale, her hands are hardened by the use of axe and blacksmith tools.


She favors leather, fur and chainmails but in warm areas she usually goes for something lighter, also because she hates hot weather. She forged her own knives and knuckles, while her axe was a gift from her family. It is extremely rare seeing her wearing girly clothes, and she mostly feels awkward in them.


While she is not much of a money-maker, she does like power and the power that comes from money.

OOC INFORMATION

Personal RP Limits
I will play mature content and themes as long as they're logical in a plot-driven encounter.
Ask about long-term and/or permanent injury and disfigurement. Long-term captivity or imprisonment. I might not like: if you constantly treat me and my character like we're inferior beings. Whatever floats your boat, but not in my presence.
I won't play permanent character death, anything outside of my (and my character's) morality scope, and constant drama-driven plots.
Disclaimer
Please be sure to communicate with me if any particular scene, event or line in RP make you uncomfortable. I like to keep the RP enjoyable for BOTH parties while sustaining immersion.
European girl, plays at EU times
All roleplay conducted remains bound into itself. IC and OOC mixing is not preferred.
