Name: Renria Aaliyah Dalca Nickname: Ren Gender: Female Age: 18 Species: Human Sexuality: Undecided
Mother: Hisa Father: Damon Siblings: Brothers (Lysander & Seth) Sister (Bai) Spouse: None Offspring: None Pets: None
Eyes: Green Hair: Red Skin: Fair with freckles. Height: 5' 1” Weight: 123 lbs Scars: None Currently Tattoos/Piercings: None Typical Clothing: A white blouse and a long, flowing skirt, usually some shade of purple or green. Other: Renria has a slender build and is fairly fragile, or at least, she looks like she is. She has small features, and it almost makes her seem like a little bird. Normally she walks as if on eggshells, something that has always frustrated her brothers, who can never hear her coming. (They might if they weren't so damn noisy.) In fact, her name is derived from these things. Her original name was not Renria – her mother simply gave her that name because she believed it sounded “soft,” like Ren's nature. The only thing that could be seen as dangerous with her are her long nails, though she dislikes violence and doesn't use them unless she has to. And since she's pretty much always smiling... she doesn't use them often.
Strengths: Listens more than she speaks, cautious, thinks a lot, friendly, considerate. Weaknesses: Distrusting, conforms, confused about many things, indecisive, rejects change.
Dreams/Goals: To become more comfortable around others, especially men; To work on her verbal skills; and to learn to stand up for herself. Fears/Phobias: Being abused again (or worse); Messing up when it's really important that she does something flawlessly; and being seen as a complete coward.
Personality: Renria seems cheerful, almost all the time. It is the exact opposite of how she felt in her teen years, and it is her defense mechanism to cope with the pain of being used, teased, and bullied. This has actually caused her quite a few trust issues, but on the outside, you'd never be able to tell it, unless you're some kind of mind reader or something.
She especially dislikes being around guys, due to the abuse from her father. It has caused her to be unsure of her sexual orientation, since she isn't quite she she likes girls. Most of the time she tries to keep in conversations so that she won't have time to actually think about the past or her orientation. However, she fears more about the future and having children, who she thinks she might end up beating because of her past experiences.
Ren is not shy, but she is soft-spoken and usually conforms to the crowd rather than asserting her own opinions, wants, or beliefs. Sometimes she might bring her desires up with another female, but when it comes to guys, she normally just nods and agrees, or doesn't say anything. Should someone ever gain her full trust, though, it is likely she will become very outgoing with them and more open.
History: Ren is the youngest of the four children, and was an “accident” according to her father. Hisa and Damon did not start out in love – in fact, they didn't even claim to ever be in love until their one-night stand that got Hisa pregnant with Bai. Afterward, Damon decided to just stick around since, hell, he didn't have anywhere else to be, the loser. He didn't plan on ending up with three more kids. (He truly hoped Ren would have been a boy, too.)
Nothing too exciting happened in her childhood. Her parents were kind, minus a few times with her father, and her sister took care of her and the two boys. No deaths, no pets, no mud pies or bloody noses. She played well with the other kids, and was polite. Her mother even got her to say “Ma'am” and “Sir” instead of “lady” and “mister,” two terms that were deemed rude in her family.
It wasn't until her teen years that things started to get fucked up. She was often teased because of how nice she was, and when she wasn't being teased, she was being used. During her last few years of being a teen, she would always come home with bruises and at one time, a broken arm. Her father began to become abusive because he said she was weak, and would beat her if he could see any marks on her body. At eighteen, she was gone.
She determined to travel to the farthest point in the world from her family, though she has not yet completed this mission.
