Information
STATISTICS:
Name: Ardee. No formal last name, but she sometimes uses Jones or du Pré/Dupré, depending on where she is and how fancy she's feeling.
Nickname(s): Usually just Ar or Dee. Sometimes bitch, whore, or cunt.
Aliases: She sometimes claims her real name is Ardelia or Ardeline, though whether this is true or wishful thinking is unknown.
Age: Old enough. She's around 18 or 19, maybe a little older or a little younger.
She doesn't have a birth certificate or any official document, nor any living family. Her age just a rough guesstimate.
Alignment: True neutral, usually. She looks out for herself above all else.
Gender: Girl. Give her enough coins and she'll give you a peek.
Species: Leporine mutt; primarily Cape hare (Lepus capensis) but there's some other shit in her, too.
Height: 4'9" (without ears). Short enough to be mistaken for a child at a distance.
Build: Bottom heavy. Pear-shaped and curvy, with short, thick legs, a long torso, and lean muscles.
She has a big ass and wide hips, but she's otherwise slim.
Eyes: Big and brown. Depending on the light, somewhere between amber and copper.
Her left eye is slightly darker, which may seem like a subtle form of heterochromia at first. In truth, it is an ocular prosthesis, a glass eye.
Hair: A short, bluntly-cut bob of dishwater blonde curls.
Fur: Short and fine. Primarily a sandy pale brown color.
Markings: White rings around her eyes. There are also some lighter brown patches scattered throughout her coat.
Scars: A jagged scar on her left cheek, extending from near the corner of her mouth to the base of her left ear.
Sexuality: Pansexual. Prefers men, but almost anything goes for the right price. (Except necrophilia. Or kids. Or animals. That's nasty.)
Marital status: Unattached, and usually uninterested.
Voice/Accent: Husky and raspy, with a hint of a low-born accent.
Scent: If she bathed recently, she smells pretty good. Like flowers, but a little smoky. Otherwise, she usually kinda musky and earthy, but not stank or anything.
Origin: Unknown.
She grew up in a brothel in Port Payne, spent time in several pleasure houses throughout the Crownlands, lived as a street urchin in Malgrave, and traveled extensively with Kumpania Veldori during her youth. Her true origins are a mystery.
Occupation: Grifter. Thief. Formerly/sometimes a whore. Occasionally a fence and smuggler.
Primes: Tallus, primarily and only in private. Publicly, she has been known to pray to M'Rill and Jujinka from time to time.

POSSESSIONS:
Clothing: She only has a few outfits and possessions. Y'know, cuz she's poor and all.
—
SKILLS:
Body skills: Acrobatics/gymnastics, climbing, and some stealth.
She's a limber and athletic lass, light on her feet, and can climb like a motherfucker.
Handicrafts: Knitting and sewing.
Everyone needs a hobby, right? When she's not turning tricks or selling stolen stuff, she's usually knitting a scarf or something.
Languages: Kasurian ("Common"), Croadan ("gutterspeech"), some Latalian, and a smattering of Frrench and Therian.
----Writing: Theric Characters, as well has a handful of Magian Runes.
She learned gutterspeech while living on the streets, and learned Latalian, some Frrench and Therian (as well as how to write) from one of her mother's clients (rumored to be her father) at a brothel in Port Payne.
Street skills: Lockpicking, pawmagery (sleight-of-hand), and pickpocketing. It's also worth mentioning that she's streetwise.
Growing up on the streets has given her a unique and not entirely legal skill set.
Weapon skills: She's handy with a dagger, but that's about it.

ADVANTAGES (5):
Contortionist (1): Limber of joint, you can dislocate your arm or curl up into twisty postures that would cause an ordinary Furre great agony. This is not a power that lets you slip your bonds if you are bound, rather, it's an odd talent displayed by marketplace performers. It can give you a little edge if you are wrestling or fighting using Tonboka or Kiraal styles.
A double-jointed born gymnast, she can contort herself into all manner of odd positions. Tucking your ankles behind your head can be mighty convenient when the rent's due.
Beautiful (1): Your physical features are memorable and very attractive by typical Furre standards.
She was gorgeous before, until her 'accident' left her with a nasty scar and only one good eye. Still, she's hot enough that she makes it work.
Sharp (1): Mathematical games come easily to you; you have a rather good memory. Possibly you're quite alert and it's difficult to surprise.
She's naturally clever, despite her lack of a formal education. Quick thinking has kept her head attached to her shoulders on more than one occasion.
Quick (1): You run faster than most Furres, and your movements are precise, speedy. You might have won many footraces when you attended the academy.
She's fast, especially for her size.
Dextrous (1): This means your hand-eye coordination is well above average. You take to weapon skills and handicrafts with equal ease; manipulating tools is your forte.
Fleet of foot and sleight of hand – the requisite skills of any good thief.

DISADVANTAGES (5):
Addiction: Smoking (1): Furres have such sensitive senses that they generally don't like smoke. It's a habit associated with the rough side of town, where the seedier bars hold a blue haze that can make your eyes red and watery if you're not used to it. In time it kills the senses of smell and taste, and longtime smokers on the docks may have poor personal habits resulting from the damage to their senses. Smoking isn't permitted in many public and private establishments.
She picked up this nasty habit during a childhood spent in the slums and whorehouses of Port Payne and Malgrave. It isn't uncommon to see her with a cigarette (or pipe, cigar, or anything else she can smoke) between her lips.
In Debt (1): Your story begins with you already in need of money. How did this come to be? Perhaps you have a child, or an ailing relative. Perhaps you are a student, and your money goes to tuition. Or perhaps there's a more sinister reason you just never seem to have any cash on hand.
She's poor to begin with, and when your idea of fun includes drugs, alcohol, and anything else you can snort or smoke, you have even less money. Luckily, she fled town before she could be tossed into a debtor's prison. Her creditors are very unhappy.
Small (1): This means you are somewhere around half to three quarters of the weight and mass of the typical Furre, roughly fifty kilograms or under. Your reach and your stride are shorter, which makes you less of a fighter or a runner.
She's 4'9” on a good day – don't ask her to arm-wrestle or get anything from the top shelf.
Poor (1): If you're careful, you'll have enough money to rent a place to sleep and to feed yourself, but homelessness and starvation are always just around the corner! To stay clean, you might have to bathe in the canals. You own the clothes on your back, plus one spare change of clothes. You might have the tools, workspace, and supplies you need for your trade, but you can't craft anything of exceptional materials without an advance from the patron.
For the most part, she lives hand (paw?) to mouth. She's been a whore and a thief, neither of which provide much of a steady income. Still, it's not her fault she was born the wrong gender and species to make a good living.
Unknown (1): Unknown Pedigree, that is. The identity of one or both of your parents is unknown. You could be someone's illegitimate heir, or an orphan, abandoned for some mysterious reason.
Her mother was a whore who died of a pox during her childhood. As for her father? Who knows.
