Full Name:
Serene Verbena
Other name:
Siren
Race::
Sorceress
Side:
Varden
Birthplace:
Carvahall
Age:
25
Gender:
Female
Birthday:
7th June
Eyes:
Brown
Hair:
Dirty blonde with natural highlighs. It’s wavy, and reaches down past her shoulders, at its longest it reaches the middle of her back.
Weight:
130 lbs
Height:
5’5 feet
Magic User:
Yes
Clothing:
Serene wears a red dress, long sleeves making her able to move her arms freely, a lot of fabric used, and the skirt-part of it is split up both sides by her thighs for swift movements including riding. Around her waist is a black leather belt, broader and slightly thicker on her stomach to work as minimalistic armor. On it, swirls and other symbols are carved into the surface, from her right side hangs a leather pouch. She also wears black leather protection around her arms which also covers the top of her hand yet leaves the rest unprotected, making her able to move fingers and wrists easily. However, these are only used while riding or if in a battle. Here legs are completely unprotected apart from a pair of boots, soft, black leather covering the outside of them. Around the boots treads of dark red are bound.
Preferred Weapon(s):
Serene has her magic, but she’s also a skilled archer. If too tired to use magic, the bow is always ready, a bounch of arrows fastened at her back. The bow is light in colour, veins of red running down its sides. It’s smoothly carved, as are the arrows.
Personality:
Serene is a gentle person, yet she often wants to do things her way, often even if it’s a foolish choice she believes that she can do everything alone. She’s stubborn as hell, and will easily lie if it suits her needs. Being a determined character is both positive and negative, and it’s not unusual for her to pass out after using magic because she always pushes her limits as far as she can. Serene has a strong will, and is not easily bent if forced, which is both good and bad. She’s just as likely to out her own safety first as to do it the other way around, and may be a seductive person if the need is there, but really, Serene is a humble female with good intentions
Likes/Dislikes:
Serene tried to be a bard as well, believing it was easily earned money, so she enjoys singing even though it didn’t last for long. She’s fond of dragons but has never seen one, and flickers though books as often as she can. She enjoys being on the road, and loves very rainy or very sunny weather. She can’t stand the desert, and heights scare her, as does small rooms.
Family:
Mother: Jolene – Bard (singer) – Teirm – Alive
Father: Clive – Merchant – Teirm – Dead
Grandmother – Elda – makes clothes – Teirm – Alive
Grandfather – Sid – Sorcerer, not working – Teirm – Dead
She’d got an uncle (Markus) in Gil’ead, but she doesn’t know of this
Brief History:
Serene was born in Carvahall, but she neither stayed nor came back. Her parents were travellers, her father being a merchant and her mother being a bard, singing whenever she could make a small fortune. Clive, her father, was doing well, and they returned to Teirm whenever they had sold all they had or had gotten all the money that they needed. Even at home they were able to earn some with Jolene singing and her grandmother selling clothes. She made them all herself, and she is the one having made Serene her clothing.
Serene’s grandfather was a sorcerer, and he’d expected his son to be as well, but that never happened. However, when they all came to know that Serene had the ability, he was as happy as ever. Sid was skilled in magic, and taught Serene all that he knew, how to never cross her limit and all the words in the Ancient language that he knew.
Growing in power over the years, Serene stayed in Teirm, practising archery with her friend Angela almost every day, and learning about magic every night. This went on from the day she turned 10, and since then she’s gotten better at each of them.
And, every year her father went out travelling again, selling stuff everywhere. Both Serene and Jolene always came with him, and more than once Urgals nearly killed them. Fortunatly, they were never great in numbers, most likely they always ended up facing those having abandoned or lost their group.
However, one day when Serene was about 19 years old, they weren’t as lucky. Both her dad and her grandfather died while fighting off the Urgals, and her grandmother, herself and Jolebe made it to the closest town. Cithri. Serene decided to stay, but the rest of her family travelled back to Teirm. She haven’t seen any of them since then.
Anything extra:
On her forehead she has a tattoo shaped like a long, far from wide droplet, coloured red as if almost brown. She got it as s child, a gift from her grandfather when she figured she was a sorceress.
She bought a horse too, Century Child, which is a gray anglo arab with white mane and a long tail with the same colour. He’s 12 years old with a broad chest, legs flexing with muscles from all the travelling, and his neck is proudly built with clearly visible muscles there as well. His legs are often covered with the same black leather armor as Serene’s arms because of the travels, but not above his knees.
