Appearance:
Astoria is 5'8 in height with an average weight of 135 lbs. Her figure is an hourglass shape, and she has a bit of muscle from her training and powers. Rounded shoulders with a decent amount of muscular biceps; to add, her leg muscles are visible but hidden within her clothing. With her baggy clothes on, she's a beautiful lean woman with a lovely frame, and she still has that same beauty when training, just with a bit of extra muscle added to her. Luckily, her muscles aren't too big and well-formed, but their still there.
.
Her face is diamond-shaped with well-rounded ears to match - with the addition of upturned eyes. The contour of her nose is straight, and the base of her nose is raised a slight bit. On closer inspection, her nose is crooked, but its hard to tell from far away. She has a horizontal scar on the bridge of her nose, small but still visible due to her tanned skin. Her eyebrows are arched in shape and dark in color; dispite having winter- colored hair. Her skin was a pale ivory color in the past. Now, its a light tan from training in the sun for too long. Her jawline is sharp and profound, with her chin slightly narrow with a couple more scars on her skin. Speaking of scars, she has more gruesome larger scars along her body. Either from fighting in battles or the times that she was by herself and did some...not so smart things. She's covered these up in gauze and bandages until they've healed, though the scars still remain quite visible. Her hair is long, and a tad bit wild from not having access to a hairbrush. To make herself look a bit more presentable, she braids the sides of her hair - the braids tied up tightly. Which makes her more unique is the color of her hair and eyes: The color of her hair is a frosty white, and her eyes are a pale violet. Around her neck is her brothers necklace, it was gifted to her a couple days before the fire of her home burned wild and took his, and her parents lives. One of her only ways to remember him...
.
Her shoulders are fairly pointy, short and small in size. Their covered with metal feathers covering both shoulder plates entirely. Her upper arms are protected by chainmail rerebraces which sit perfectly under the shoulder plates. The lower arms are covered by vambraces which have a masterfully crafted upper bird beak attached on each outer side. Her breastplate is made from one larger piece of metal and crafted to mimic the appearance of a soft muscled feminine frame. It covers everything from the neck down and ending at the groin, but the shoulder area is fairly exposed to allow more movement space. Under the armour is a plain tan laced up shirt that is more like a dress for the young woman. The upper legs are covered by pointed, half covering cuisses. The lower legs are covered by greaves which have a large metal feather on each side.
.
Personality:
Astoria doesn't make friends, she makes alliances. She cam be altruistic at times, though her main mode is that of self-preservation. She's a survivor, a loner, and she intends to remain as such. This young woman is independent and self-reliant to a fault; even when it would be in her best interests to ask for assistance, she will always procrastinate about it, or flat out refuse to do such a thing. Astoria is stubborn, and she does not intend to stop any time soon. She sees relying on others as a weakness; thus she studies, works, and trains alone, and really just is alone. The young woman does not particularly take kindly to others approaching her, especially those happy-go-lucky attitudes. The world is not a particularly happy place. The sooner they realise it, the better.
.
She is not an arrogant being, but she is extremely judgy. Its not always in a bad sense - she's a good judge of character, for one thing - but she is often very cynical, or at least skeptical of others. Compared to the more self-absorbed people of the kingdom, however, she is an absolute saint. Astoria picks her acquaintances carefully and will not affiliate herself with those whose standards in life are below her own. Perhaps its where she comes from that prevents her from hanging around those who will bring down, or perhaps its just her being herself.
.
Astoria is not rude, but she is curt and aloof. Her words often come across as clipped and cold, though she doesn't necessarily mean to sound harsh or hurt feelings. However, she will not dissuade such notions, as that usually means less people trying to bug her. She's devious, wily, and calculating; everything is a tactical game to her, and she plays to win -- to obliterate. To dominate the field.
.
She can be somewhat flirtatious, though she is rarely actually interested. Astoria makes good use of sarcasm, though her dead serious tone is often confusing and leaves others uncertain on what her authentic stance on the subject is. She likes to play with minds; manipulation to further her own station is a method of war that has been drilled into her since she was very young. It is not something that can easily be changed.

Strengths & Weaknesses:
Strengths
⊕ Inner Strength: She has superior strength when it comes to holding in feelings and withstanding arguments. She has quick comebacks and will easily spit venomous echoing words at the opponent.
⊕ Bravery: Astoria would never back down, despite the odds (which could be her downfall). She doesn't cower away from snakes and spiders - and if you would pull such a prank, she will absolutely get you back...someday.
⊕ Protectivness: After her past, and losing almost all of her loved ones in the fire that took her home, yeah... She's just a "bit" overprotective at times.
⊕ Agility: Shes able to move quickly and easily without breaking much of a sweat. She's a fierce opponent in battle, with her strength aiding her immensely. If you need help with training or a task, dont hesitate to ask her - she'll help in any way she can.
⊕ Tenacious: Never ask her to give up on someone or something. You're unknowingly insulting her. She's not one to back down, even if the odds are against her. She brokenheartedly gave up the ones she loved a long time ago, and she'll be damned if she has to do it again.
⊕ Reliable: If you need help getting a job done, count on her completely. She's not one to leave a job incomplete, especially when it comes to helping her friends. She can do almost any job unless it requires to kill an innocent being. If you ask her such a thing, in her eyes - you have committed an unspoken sin.
.
Weaknesses
⊗ Beserker Rage: A negative effect of her powers - once she's in it, it'll be hard for her to snap out of it. It happens when her bloodlust overwhelms her - making her go into a blind rage. Stay away when she's in this beserker rage as she won't hesitate to lash out...
⊗ Silent: Astoria is the extreme silent type and would communicate with expressions. Its not the fact that she's mute - she gets nervous when talking to people and will easily get flustered. Indeed, she is the master of reading lips, so be aware if your talking trash about her behind her back. She can pick up on it.
⊗ Lonerish: She keeps her distance from the group and avoids eye contact. She'll be there for group meetings, but other than that, she'll stay away from mostly everyone. Normally, she would train alone somewhere secluded - a way to help her ease her mental troubles she builds up throughout the day.
⊗ Reckless: Astoria charges into battle - she will target the strongest opponent without thinking. A dragon is burning down your village? Blink once and she'll be charging at the thing. A whole bunch of different kingdom soldiers? Get ready for the tumble.
⊗ Shy: This is rather strange, but Tori is extremely shy around people. Her blushing gets worse when she's around the opposite sex - then she'll blush some more, but be directed at herself for blushing too easily. This is another reason she keeps herself away from the group.

Moving along his sides, they are predominantly a pristine white, like a blank canvas upon which nature has painted its most intricate details. Amidst this snowy expanse, it seems that artists touch becomes scattered, creating patches of soft buckskin that seems to dance in the light. As the winters drone on, his buckskin patches become a bit darker.

Despite his imposing size and powerful build, Arius maintains graceful proportions that enhance his overall aesthetic.
