Name:
Camille Lederer, called Cami
Position:
Herald-trainee
Age:
17
Physical Description:
Tall and leggy-almost coltish-with what she feels are ever increasing curvy
bits, Cami looks much like her mother did in her youngling days and will most
likely end up with the same standard tavern wench shape as an adult. Cami's hair
would be quite pretty, if she had the time or desire to preen more often; the
long black curls currently look a bit scraggly. With almond shaped hazel eyes,
pale, if freckled, skin and a ready yet crooked-toothed grin, Camille has the
look of someone just not quite good enough to be the pretty village darling.
Personality/Attitude:
At first glance, Cami comes of as cold and aloof, though in reality she's
terrifyingly shy. By fourteen she'd reached a point where she preferred the
company of animals to that of people, having a strange sort of comfortable
affinity with the area barn cats and plow horses. Though her trust is difficult
to gain, a small number have, finding the young woman loyal and courageous, but
somewhat scatterbrained. Camille once complained that numbers and ideas get all
jumbled up in her head, like a mudpuddle someone's stepped in.
Brief History:
The third child of Holgate's blacksmith and the local tavern's woman of all
work, Cami had a simple upbringing, with most of her emotional support coming
from her two elder bothers. She loves her siblings unendlessly, but learned very
little about being feminine from them-instead she can ride, fight, and swim just
as well as any boy her age and loves climbing things. When her brothers left of
join the Guard, Camille wanted to follow, but here, at last, was where her
mother drew the line. Her
brother's hand me down tunics, trews and boots were replaced with skirts,
slippers and ribbons, and Jemma Lederer would have at least one child stay home
and lead a normal life, and the war be damned!
Goals:
Camille is unsure what she desires from life, though not to long ago she
daydreamed about sneaking off and finding some Hawkbrothers so she could live in
the forest all the time.
Gifts:
Mindspeech, farsight, weak animal mindspeech, and mage-potential, though no mage
gift per say
Companion/Bondbird:
Remali, a stallion, stands approximately 17 hands, and it's nearly all legs.
He's
lean, with a long, noticeably crested neck and a thick mane and tail with
somewhat trademarked curls. Remali's eyes are a dark shade, mostly cerulean,
with navy rims and interspersed teal flecks. He's very vain, but also a notable
athlete.

Author's Comments:
Cami's mind works along the same lines as a dyslexic person's-she'll get
confused,
frustrated and angry when she can't understand something as easily as she feels
she should, and has serious problems writing and reading numerals.
Stab me if I talk to much, as I like the pretty words,
and I'm sure it'll get annoying sometime. ^^
