Name: Circe
Breed: Elf.
Gender: female
Age: 231
Skill: warrior
Mount?: Kieran. a brown grulla mare.
WOC: cutlass / sword thing. a very thin sword you might say.
COB: Rhovanion
Appearance: tall and thin, like most elves would be. but she is also tanner than most elves, for she grew up in rivendell and spent almsot all her childhood in the sun. she has green eyes and blonde hair that does get somewhat darker in the winter time, when there is less sun.
Personality: Circe is kind, but off, some might say. She is very clever and quiet when she finds it needed, and usually that is in the presence of a newcomer or stranger. When she is with a friend or someone she can trust, she is playful and energetic, much like a child. She values life above everything, and therefore hates war. Though she is a skilled oponent, she would rather fight to defeat, not death. Often she may appear as not one of the elves, because she does things most wouldnt do, like climb trees for her own enjoyment.
History:
Circe did lead an almost normal life for a short time. her mother was indeed a half-elf, and so she is part half-elf. Circe knows not of her father, for her mother only told her that he had gone away from the world, yet was not dead alltogether. and so she lived on in content for a few years. and then diasaster struck, and Circe was forcefully abandoned. (their town was attacked and burnt to the ground, she and her mother fled, and her mother died) Circe was barely able to care for herself, and roamed the woods to the north of the place she was born. and therein she was found by the elves of rivendell. they questioned her for facts of her family, but she was young and could not reply easily. after the elves found out that her fther had been indeed an elf, and a rivendell elf at that, they accepted her in warmly.
and so from her young age of 16, she learned the ways of swords and archery and many other battle-related skills. she refined her gardening skills and earned herself a horse, though it was not Kieran. then it was a stallion whom the elves of Rivendell called Aear Lor; or sea dream. for he was very gentle and sensitive for a stallion. and so life for Circe continued in the way of the elves for quite sometime.
of course, as she lived in Rivendell, she came to know Arwen closely and met Legolas when the fellowship formed (she was 132 then) Arwen acted as a sister to Circe, and Legolas was but a mere friend at that time. though she had no say in what he did, she did feel a want to join the fellowship as well. it wasn't strong enough to provoke her though.
around her 150th birthday; not that she was counting; she decided to leave the peaceful ways of Rivendell in search for something new nad different. a bold taste for adventure was born within her at this time, and so she set out, for mirkwood. this was long after the fellowship had broken up and ended the ring. and so mirkwood was a great goal for her, becasue it was far enough away from Rivendell to promot a challenge, and when she had arrived, the living conditions would be somewhat of the same sort she was used to. and so she set off. around 10-12 years later, she arrived in mirkwood and has lived there ever scince. (she took many off-road trips to visit small towns and such. to catch up on gossip and such)
Anything Extra: Queen of Mirkwood
her theme song:
eh, i was dying out on the personality description. its hard to find words that fit her... perhaps the song might lend a description of her? who knows...
