[Alevadra Druva]

Alevadra Druva Picture from DeviantART by destroyinc Basic Information Race: Human Birthday: 3rd of Winter 485 Age: 28 years old Gender: Female Current Location: Syliras Physical Description Alevadra would be considered small by most standards. She stands at five feet and two inches, short for a knight. Her frame is small and fairly lean, with small cuts and scars across her body from hours, days and weeks of training. Her face is strong, with sharp angles, her cheek bones are high, her face is thin. Dark brown eyes peer out between thick lashes. Her hair is naturally a pale blonde, which Alevadra has gotten into the habit of dying with various plant and even fabric dyes. Her hair is a variety of purples and blues, all of which are dark shades, her hair appears almost black unless the light is bright. While on duty, Alevadra wears her full plate armor with mossy green, linen (Or wool, depending on the season) surcoats and tunics. Usually she wears a tan pair of suede pants and black leather or suede boots--again, depending on the season. While Ale is just about town off duty, she dresses neatly, but never looks particularly "girly". White and other pale hued tunics that better fit her form are common as well as black, leggings and her boots are usually either black or tan. Character Concept Alevadra is a strong soul, she is determined to rise among the ranks of the Syliran knights to bring pride to her family and the Druva line. Even with her slight physical disadvantage she has always shown perseverance and determination. She will happily assist the visitors and community of Sylira, but she is also willing to kill if it comes to it. Alevadra is ruthless to criminals, she has no tolerance for illegal activities and makes it well known to visitors. Her true joy though, is outside of Sylira, whether it be adventuring or just travel, time on the road or at least outside of the city walls is her preferred location. On a more personal level around friends, family and fellow knights; Ale is a very welcoming and friendly individual. She's often smiling to others when socializing, happy to hold a conversation with nearly anyone. A playful, free spirit, she enjoys stories and games while off duty. While on duty, she's a much different beast, appearing almost cold with her stoic expressions, and showing a reserved level of welcoming to others. Character History Current History Alevadra was born to not only one, but two knights. Both Alevadra's mother and father were knights and the same fate was expected of Alevadra. Her father was of the Durva family, so once married, Alevadra's mother took the name and it was passed on to Alevadra to hold proudly. At a young age she began her training as a page, at the age of ten she left her parents to live under a sponsor to fill out her page duties. At the age of thirteen she moved to being a squire, where her training continued. A few seasons after becoming a squire, Alevadra's mother died of illness, with her death, the woman's bow was passed down to her daughter. Her training continued without much further ado, there was mourning and Alevadra took awhile to adjust to the loss of her mother, though once she did, she began to honor her by learning her skill: archery. There was never a particularly "normal" visit with her father once Jasme had passed, he became consumed with being a knight, spending little time at home or with his only daughter. Alevadra continued her training under Ser Patrick Frent, Victor Druva's last squire. With an untimely turn of events, Ser Frent was killed, leaving Ale alone as she approached the time for her knighthood quest. Training Skill Points Total Earned Prog.
