Tierra Age: 12 ( 68th Spring 505AV) Gender and Race: Female Human Appearance Tierra is an average child of her gender and race. Standing in just under five feet tall and weighing in under 100 pounds this child has nothing remarkable about her that makes her standout by appearance. Her mousy brown hair and green eyes are smudged by the daily lives of an Orphan. Concept Orphan Child aspiring to become a family assassin – possibly Mortanis? History Tierra was left at the orphanage when she was just a year old, spending the first years of her life just being kept alive and raised to praise Rhysol. It is to this devotion and dedication to her life that the girl ultimately picked the track at the Orphanage to be Family oriented. Being an orphan her whole life allowed her to pretty much become a part of the woodwork. At the age of 6 Tierra was adopted by a nondescript man with a penchant towards hitting Tierra. It was during this time that Tierra picked up becoming statue still and doing her best to remain hidden where she stood. The man was a drunk and if he didn't stumble into the small girl or look too closely there were nights were Tierra could go into a light sleep without fear of being beat during the night after the man passed out in his bed. She wasn't always this lucky though and found herself on the receiving end of whatever angry tirade the man's drunken mind could create. The news of this of course made its way back to the Orphanage owners – the Galatos Family – and they beat the man one night when he returned home from drinking at the local tavern. During the beating though Tierra ran from her adopted home, swiping the only thing she could in the case that she was found by the man and she needed to protect herself – a razor blade. An item she knew full well was not allowed in the orphanage and she had no idea how to get back. Afraid of the man's anger though took the girl's mind out of her thoughts and actions when she fled and thusly found herself in the middle of the city lost. Only knowing she wanted to return the Orphanage the girl took to begging citizens and trying her best to stay out of the watchful gaze of guards and others of the watchful types alike – granted it was futile but the girl did not know that at the time. When sunset was nearing Tierra took to hiding the blade she confisicated from her would-be adopter's home. Stashing it behind a loose rock near one of the many canals that acted as streets the girl hoped she could remember where it was, some day in the future. Even though she feared the adopter coming back and demanding she be brought back his care from the Orphanage Tierra also longed to be free of the fear of being adopted once more to another person that was no different. Yet the Orphanage was the only place she knew as home, it was the only place she felt somewhat comfortable with. It took Tierra a day to get back to the Orphanage where she was welcomed back with a punishment she took willingly. Tierra kept her eyes on windows and doors though, hoping she could flee from the place she called home in the hopes of removing the fears that were held over her head. Skills
