An application for two characters.

Name: Kurda
Sex: Female
Age: 24
Hair Color/Style: A tangle of strawberry ginger curls, a bright orange-brown that dramatically offset her deep complexion - as thick and wild as her sister's, but cut shorter for the sake of practicality. It has been set on fire in her line of work more than once and is often singed. The same burst of warm color can be found at ear and tail tips, tufts rather lush and curly.
Eye Color: An almost red toned chestnut brown - just like her sister, just like their mother.
Skin Tone/Pattern: A shade of brown dark enough to be called very nearly black, with a faint reddish tint - very much like her eyes. No markings aside from small, scattered scars from sparks and flecks of metal.
Other Physical Details: 6'6 and around 200lbs. A more intimidating woman, tall and very well built with all kinds of small, scattered burns and cuts from forge sparks on her hands, arms, and even face. She's rather strong and even a little imposing, her weight coming in the form of dense muscle and a distinctly broader than average frame. She has strong features as well; a more square shaped face and rounded chin, with firm jaw and pronounced cheekbones. A pair of deeper and wide set eyes observe calmly below rather gracefully rounded and arching brows often hidden under thick curls. A rather triangular nose and defined lips fill out her features. She keeps her nails trimmed and blunt.
Occupation (if any): (Artisan) Sanctum Metalworker / Bronzesmith
Skills: metalworking, leatherworking, stoneworking, woodworking
( wants to learn about ) glassworking

Kurda works with nearly all materials in her line of work, from smelting metal to carving stone molds and stitching leather. She makes strong weaponry, but specializes in and prefers to make tools and practical pieces, like harnessing equipment for uwamu and 'eye shields' for Kyriders. She rarely makes more decorative items like jewelry, but has growing familiarity with the idea as she adapts knowledge of smaller items like decorative vessels, pins, needles, clasps, beads, etc.
Personality: stoic, thoughtful, curious, patient, hopeful, hard working, studious, loyal
Brief History (optional): The elder of a pair of sisters who lost their parents under dark circumstances nearly ten years past, following a string of bad luck for the Kyriders. It is a story gradually being committed to the past and not to be spoken of, but one that deeply affected the development of the siblings. The social marginalization that followed in the shadow of their parent's sins eventually embittered and drove the younger away from the sanctum. Kurda however, having taken up the hammer in the forge like her exiled father before her and having always called the sanctum home, has stayed and stood steadfast. She lives to work hard and prove herself, proud of her people despite their condemnation - and ever holding out hope that one day, she may be free of the burden of her lineage.

Name: Bee
Sex: Female
Age: 19
Hair Color/Style: A spill of shiny, inky black curls (with a faint blue sheen) that she lavishes attention on - generally tied back in a “loose do up” with a broad headband. She has rather lush, curly ear tufts.
Eye Color: An almost red toned chestnut brown - just like her sister, just like their mother.
Skin Tone/Pattern: A warm and rich, more yellow tinted bronze; black splotches across her entire back from neck to tail tip. She has 'seal points' of darker skin on her ears, tail, feet, hands, and nose. Is colored 'like a bee'.
Other Physical Details: 5'11 and 140lbs. A smaller than average female, but lean and fierce despite it. An angry little bee with youthful and rounded features, small chinned with big warm cheeks, big bright eyes and a little snub nose. A similarly brilliant and disarming smile pulls it all together in complete defiance of the stinging nature lying in wait right behind it. She takes good care of her nails, keeping them sharp and strong as possible. Bee is notably missing over half her tail. It's hard to say if this is a genetic defect or injury, as the end is always wrapped and covered with a copper cap to conceal the stub - if not curious enough, said cap has a ring on it she uses to sometimes fasten her tail to her sash.
Occupation (if any): (Shady) Messenger / Courier
Lowlife
Thief (for hire)
Skills: pickpocketing, pathfinding, sneaking, running / speed, evasion, hiding, survival
Personality: opportunistic, bitter, angry, snide, feigns enthusiasm, sarcastic, stubborn, is always ready to fight, thrill seeking, power hungry, manipulative, addictive tendencies, has no shame, probably hates you
Brief History (optional): Bee is the younger of the two siblings, who has taken a very different path in life - crushed at the betrayal of their parents as much as the punishments that had befallen them, she did not handle the sudden social rejection well. She went from a young hopeful of the sanctum to a child desperate for acknowledgement, prone to getting into trouble and increasingly angry at everyone and everything. Eventually she could no longer stand the now too cold walls of the sanctum - nor the accusing eyes of the Kyrka - and left for Iral Kay to reinvent herself, turning to a life of five-finger discounts to survive and in time, as she learned the basin and its settlements exploring, one of expert (if questionable) delivery. She keeps a low profile and is not a fan of Laylar and Sarasha - nor Kyriders and hopeful in general, for that matter.
