Character
"We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot." -Eleanor Roosevelt
Appearance
“There is no exquisite beauty… without some strangeness in the proportion.” ― Edgar Allan Poe
When Astrid was born, she was a true beauty. Her mother seemed so proud of the small specimen her much older husband and herself had created. But as the child grew and the constant sicknesses kept arising, her mother no longer saw an ounce of beauty and complained that the child must have been stricken with something far worse than ear infections and stomach bugs... she was convinced some virus was sucking every ounce of pretty straight from the child's blood. Astrid's pale hair was slow to grow and it seemed she would be bald her whole life. And at eighteen months of age, Astrid was stricken with an infection that not only took the eyesight from her right eye but also all the pigment. This left her eye nearly completely white and it didn't function as well leaving the small child looking cross eyed quite often.
Astrid's father always reassured her that she was a true beauty, but in her mind that was something all fathers were expected to think and say of their own daughter. She grew self-conscious and did very little by means of trying to look attractive. She had no reason to... she was rarely allowed out of the house.
Now, as a young woman, exploring the world and developing a sense of self she has become more self aware and caring of what she looks like. She is still small in stature, standing no more than 5'4" and weighing only 100lbs. She takes great care in making sure her hair is well kept and even wears a bit of make up on most days. Recently having cut her light blonde hair with a bit of fringe in the front and most often wearing a headband. She takes care to always be clean and wear light polish on her nails.
Her clothing is more often practical than fashionable, but always well fitted. She likes simple jewelry and rarely comes across a hat she likes to wear.
