HI! Soooooo this is character number two for me (Æolyn). I couldn't help myself. I fell in love with the name Roran when I read "Eragon" and had to use it so here she is (yes I realize Roran was a dude in the books, but its better name for a girl imo)!!
And because of my unholy love of numbered lists and the fact that I'm trying to update my boyfriend's iPod here is an overview of her personality:
1) she's 24 years old
2) born in Redcliffe to a barmaid
3) father was a traveling rebel that her mother thought she was in love with... ahhhh young love -__-
4) mother remarried when she was six to a Redcliffe guardsman
5) Tristan Langley (step-father) started teaching Roran to fight when she was nine
6) Kahlyn, Roran's mother, discovers she's pregnant with a second child
7) the Fifth Blight begins that year, Ark Eamon falls ill, the attacks on Redcliffe begin and the Warden's save the day, inspiring Roran to want to become a Warden.
8) Tristan is sent off to fight in the battle of Denerim and Kahlyn later gives birth to a son, Brynn Langley
9) Tristan returns home from the war with an injured leg but otherwise unharmed
10) Roran joins the Redcliffe guard and starts training with them while training her little brother to fight as well
11) one evening while sparring with him as their mother washed clothes nearby, their mother is captured by bandits who demand money. Roran gives them everything she has on her (which isn't much) and when the bandits say they should kill her mother out of principle, she yells at them and charges. they drop her mother and run for their lives but when Roran turns back to her mother and brother she finds that her mother hit a rock when the bandits released her and fractured her skull, bleeding out.
12) Roran goes into a depressive state for a week before Brynn finally breaks it and Roran decides its best to pour her emotions over the loss of her mother into her training rather than wasting her life away.
Andddddddd that's her history. as for her personality... she's an Andrastean and doesn't know of other religions, so in her mind her's is the only one that exists. She won't mean to offend anyone with other religions when she learns about them but she probably will. I apologize in advance. She's very loyal to the crown and the laws set forth, including the laws on magic. She believes that magic is evil and that all the mages should be locked away for life. She's rather naive on the subject of mages, which is what breeds her hatred. She believes that any mage outside the Circle is maleficar and is deathly afraid of them. Well she's afraid of any mage really, not just maleficar.
She's a tomboy because of the lifestyle she's chosen. Growing up she'd rather have play fought than have played with dolls, so she's always been seen as "one of the boys" and thus has never really had a romantic relationship. She probably wouldn't even realize she had feelings for someone if that were to happen. She might think she has indigestion or something. She's rather short for a human (4'11") and a woman, so those are her two main faults. She's always trying to compensate for those facts and pushes herself the extra mile even when she may not need to. She over thinks things because of those qualities and it sometimes costs her time and judgment.
That is Roran in a nutshell. It's better written in her bio as I'm sure you all know. She's never left Redcliffe so she'll be joining Group One. I'm game for any lines with anyone really so lets hear what you have to say!!! :D
