Name:
Amaya-cora (it means Maiden of the Night Rain)

Nicknames:
May

Position:
Tavern Girl

Age:
12

Physical Description:
Amaya-cora is short for her age and thin looking. She is not too confident in herself and often is pushed around. Her vibrant green eyes are always hid by her downward turned face, and shoulder length red hair. Her skin is pale, and her hands are callused from working.

Personality/Attitude:
May is very shy and nervous around people, and when she is in a large groups she tends to become very easily panicked. She is often considered a doormat because she does what people tell her to because she is scared of what they will do to her.

Brief History:
May was given up when she was five years old and put to work as a tavern girl and kitchen help. The owner of the tavern often would become drunk and watch her like a hawk. As soon as she did one small thing wrong, he would come up to her in a wild rage and beat her till she was black and blue. It wasn't only him, but some of the workers would think she was useless and would often burn her with hot pans, or spill boiling soup on her to get her in more trouble. When she was only seven years old she was sold to a customer for the night, without knowing. She brought up his dinner and was pulled in and raped twice in the same night by the man. She hurt so much that she hid in the small horse stable to avoid having to work, but the owner found her, beat her, and sold her again to another man. She has since then been programmed to listen to what anyone says, and is always afraid that someone will hit/ rape her.

Author's Comments:
I have put a lot of thought into Amaya-cora, and though I know her gifts are... well, VERY unusual I was looking for a way to break out of the stereo-typical gifts that are being used. I got my basic idea from Mercedes Lackey's Oath Blood: The Talisman. May does not have her gifts yet, as I want to RP the awakening of them.
