Harper Amelia is a horse trader and hunter from Ceniza Valley. Primarily focused on what could be gained from the world outside of the valley, she left her home of three years in pursuit of knowledge and the hope of finding better horses for her family, though she doesn't really have a wish to return home. She currently travels with a cart hitched to two horses and several goods that she plans to trade in the near future as her path brings her toward Nova Scotia.

OOC ASSUMPTIONS!

Plot opportunities:

  • Harper has several horses that she is willing to trade and or use as leverage in different breeding initiatives. She also has other items to trade
  • There may be several acquaintances within Inferni that know of Harper and might be interested in seeing her again. This is up to the other players but possible plotting material, none the less.
  • She was in love once and it's partially why she left Ceniza Valley. Maybe a cNPC can be made, though the other individual can't have stayed long or have been a member of Ceniza Valley.

PM to discuss:

  • Specific conversations, especially conversations which may later affect RP or adoption(e.g., arguments, revelations).

1.  Appearance

1.1  Basics

Essentials

  • Species: Despite being nearly half coyote, Harper most resembles her dog mother. Little but size and strength suggests her coyote heritage. Because of her breed, her ears are floppy and she's got the heterochromia mutation.
  • Fur: Her fur is relatively coarse and thin, though her dog heritage causes it to thicken up during the winter.
    • Optime Hair: (Up to the adopter to decide, though my suggestion would be long and wavy)
  • Facial Features: Her features are very doggish and soft, with high but flopped-over ears. Her expression is generally relaxed, but full of observation and suspicion. As a trader, she comes off as friendly but it doesn't always show when she is emotional.
  • Build and Size: Small for a half-breed, she is on the lower spectrum of a typical coyote. Lean, yet mostly muscular and curvy at the same time.
  • Humanization: Medium. She wears a hooded garb most times when she is hunting but chooses to go for the finer wear like leather loin clothes and wrapping for when she is going to trade her items.

Coloration

  • Fur: Harper is primarily Raffia.
  • Markings:
    • Her ears, the top part of her tail and a single spot covering her left eye is Di Serria.
    • She has two flare marks on each side of her face that are Paarl. The top is longer than the bottom. They start at her snout and go nearly all the way to her cheeks.
    • Her legs are Spicy Mix, from her elbows (so to speak) to the bottom of her paws.
  • Eyes: Her left eye is a rich Russet color while her right is a dazzling Bermuda
  • Optime Hair: She has a rich flare of Raffia at the front, the rest is Swirl.

Interaction

  • Speech: Raised in Ceniza Valley, or relatively close to it, she carries something akin to their Texan (Spanish) mixed dialect, though speaks more freely and without the pauses that were prone without interjecting the Cenizan Valley terminology.
  • Scent: Often carries the scent of fire and ash, soot and dirt. Sometimes, mingled with the stench of blood from her hunt and horses. When around others and washed, she smells like honey suckle and pine.
  • Quirks, Gestures, Etc.: Generally very casual in her front. Frowns if something isn't going her way. She is not against crossing her arms when angry with someone can be rather creative in thinking up names to call her clientele.
  • General Posture and Body Language: Not very polite but often misconstrued. Due to quite of bit of her blood being dog, she is more clumsy than a coyote, though makes up for it with a regal sense of self-confidence and straightened posture.

2.  Personality

Personality can be decided by the adopter. If not, they can follow the personality written below.

She grew up with a coyote dad and a dog mother who happened to have a tiny portion of wolf blood within her. She is very much a herder of animals though is prone to deal with only horses since she recognizes their strengths and beauty more than others. She can be insufferable with those who aren't fans of stupidity but is amazed by the simplest of things, like the ripple of water after someone pulls their feet from the lake. She is wild, generally care free, but enjoys nature almost as much as she does rain and fire. A big fan and believer of the wild gods of the Ceniza Valley lore, she often finds herself lost in its stories told by the fire dancers.


She hates the idea of being someone's property, or being controlled by another. Freedom is the only thing that is non-negotiable when it comes to anything with her. In that way, she can be generally careless in her actions and may not be afraid to tell someone to shove it, in some other useful way of the words. She crosses her arms when she doesn't get her way and can be somewhat snobbish when someone she doesn't like comes into her path.
