GENERAL INFORMATION

Arie tries to act aloof, but all too easy it's clear that the girl lacks a lot of basic knowledge of how the real world works, often spouting inaccurate or just completely incorrect information about people or places as if they were fact.

APPEARANCE

Red hair, Arie's eyes are bright green. Not much coin to her name, she gets by with keeping what few clothes she has clean and mended to the best of her ability.

PERSONALITY

Arie comes off as uppity, and as a know it all even when spouting wrong information. She's often wrong, so one would think she could at least apologize well... that is not the case. She loves to learn and practice her skills. Seeing an improvement in her skills is a great mark of pride for her, and she can easily put aside the need to be right in order to learn something, even though that doesn't often come with an apology. She's nervous around strangers, though she tries to hide it.

L I K E S ⦾ Night: Arie loves night time. She loves the stars and the moon. She loves the fireflies that come out that she can chase. She loves the sound of the crickets and most of all, she loves the smell of the cooling earth after being baked all day. ⦾ Learning New Things: Arie simply loves to learn new things, or expand her knowledge on a subject.	D I S L I K E S ⦾ Storms: Arie has a fear of storms, not so much rain, but lightening. She once saw a tree get struck by lightening, and now even the flash makes her run for cover. ⦾ Cold: Arie enjoys warmer temperatures. Not a fan of cold or Winter for that matter. She likes the warmer months and will often seek someone to use for body heat if she gets too cold, randomly cuddling up to their side if they aren't paying attention.	H O B B I E S ⦾ Reading: Arie will spend a major portion of her time reading if she can. ⦾ Training: Going along with reading and learning new things, Arie enjoys practicing the things she knows and has read about.
S T R E N G T H S ⦾ Smart: Arie is smart, often leading to her seeming like a know it all but she picks up things quickly. ⦾ Loyalty: Arie can be loyal to a fault, once one gets past her layers of prissy attitude.	W E A K N E S S E S ⦾ Smart: As much a weakness as it is a strength, Arie's intelligence can often hinder her from seeing things from a more simple perspective, making it difficult for her to relate to people or situations. ⦾ Curious: Arie can be extremely curious, about everything. Even dangerous things, and it has lead to the girl getting herself in more than a little bit of trouble.	M O T I V A T I O N S ⦾ Learning: Arie strives to know as much as she can when something catches her attention. ⦾ Belonging: Arie wants to belong somewhere, she wants to be cared for and wanted. This is something she wouldn't say outloud, but after leaving home, she can't help but feel alone.

COMBAT & WEAPONRY

Arie is minorly trained in hand to hand combat, swords and daggers. She is adept at their use and can mostly defend herself if the need arises, but her real interest lies in the magical arts, of which she is trying to presently learn.

OOC NOTES

OOC INFORMATION Player Note I expect a clear IC / OOC division in RP. Their feelings and my feelings are separate. I prefer clear lines of communication with whomever I'm RPing with, and those I'm RPing with should always feel free to send a /tell to clear up any questions. I'm normally OOC, so please send a /tell before approaching for RP. Personal RP Limits I like to consider myself a flexible player who is willing to commit to a number of different types of scenes and role-play scenarios, but I have a single rule that will not falter, and it's best anyone interested in RP with me is aware of it. Going to be blunt here; I will not, I repeat: NOT, subject a character to a story only for the person I rp with to be purely interested in ERP or similar. I am after story and long term interactions, I have been around the RP scene enough to know that I do not enjoy, nor am I interested in, a purely ERP set up. If that's your thing, power to you, but it is not mine and I will not compromise on this. If your character gets that far with Bubbles and you only bug me for ERP, rest assured I will be ICly distancing my character from yours. Dedication and mutual respect is highly important, don't degrade my character or waste your time. ⦾ I will play Most anything platonic, dark, light, casual or story. ⦾ Ask about Starting a long term rp! Darker themes are fine as well. ⦾ I won't play Purely ERP based relationships. Disclaimer ⦾ If an aspect of RP makes you uncomfortable in a scene we're playing, please send me a /tell, letting me know. Communication is very important, more important than potentially keeping immersion.

CHARACTER TIDBITS Potential Plot Hooks While the below is by no means comprehensive, it's a kind of spring board for walk-up RP. ⦾ This section is a work in progress. Character Lore Adherence Information in this Wiki is Lore Compliant to the best of my knowledge.
