Strengths: Avery can read/write. Avery is currently using her spare time to write a book about Corus. She also have basic skills with a knife, nothing fancy just some maneuvers that her brother thought she ought to learn so she can defend herself. She is a hard worker and gets along well with most people

Weaknesses: She is blind to the faults of other people (and herself) She does not believe bad of anyone and this often gets her into trouble. She would (and has) wandered down a dark alley with a perfect stranger. Her brother is constantly saving her from various predicaments.

Personality: Almost criminally happy and cheerful. She never sees the bad or dangerous side of anything. (Obviously there are some exceptions to this, she wouldn't go sit down and chat with a man carrying a bloody knife. She would however see nothing wrong with talking to the cloaked, brooding man in a corner) She has rarely gotten mad her life. However the few times she has her outburst have been severe. For example, when she was 12 her eldest brother cut off her hair when she was sleeping. When she awoke to find her hair gone she flew into a rage and managed to break his arm with a cooking pot. She also dislikes people who question her closely, it makes her uncomfortable.

History: Avery lived on a small farm on the Scanra boarder until the war. Her family raised ponies as the growing season for crops is short and unpredictable. Her farm was one of the first attacked when the war started. Avery’s eldest brother and sister both died and the rest of her family fled to a refugee camp. Her twin brother, Tristan, decided to move to Corus in hopes of finding a job. Avery’s parents decided that she should go with her brother and join the priestesses of the Great Mother Goddess, partially as punishment for her love of writing which her family considers foolish.

What is your character most ashamed of? For most of her life Avery has been ashamed of her interest in writing. Her parents told her it was a useless skill and that she ought to learn more practical things such as weaving. When they found that the one thing she had rescued from their farm was a book of (not very good) blank parchment they sent her to the temple in hopes of ‘curing’ her of this strange love. She now writes in secret though she does do scribe work for the temple

What makes your character unique? Her talent for writing.

Why is your character coming to the Inn? Her brother often works at night. Lonely Avery wanders to the Inn in search of company and in search of a inspiration for the book she is writing.

So clearly she wouldn't be wearning that sort of clothing, but the general appearance is right
