About

Hulda Moreau is the daughter of Valdís and Everett Moreau, born alongside siblings Mjrn Moreau and Vivi Moreau.

She has always felt rooted to the earth and her earliest memories consist of hands full of dirt and her senses brimming with the life around her. Her interest in plants developed as a method of helping her father, who was often sickly during her childhood. Under his guidance, she learned the basics of herb lore and could create simple tinctures to fend off common illnesses such as colds and coughs. From her mother, she learned discipline and how to defend herself, particularly in the ways of bow and spear.

Inspired by her father's stories of Casa di Cavalieri and the land of 'Souls, she embarks upon a new chapter in the hopes of writing tales of her own.

After a brief time as a Loner and with the onset of winter, Hulda joined New Caledonia where she is currently ranked as a Commoner.

Appearance

Expression

• Scent: Still carries hints of her parents and siblings (leather, wildflowers, and earthy) and Casa di Cavalieri's outpost (metal, horses, and sea salt).

Physical Appearance

Basics

Hulda is markedly doggish in shape and colouring although her wolfish bloodline contributes to a shaggy and well-insulated coat. It thickens around her neck, limbs, and flanks. A lean and well-built creature who retains a level of elegance. Curious almond-shaped eyes gaze out of a wolfish face, with a strong muzzle and pointed head. The tall ears crowning her skull easily display her emotional state, as does her tail. The woman naturally holds herself proudly, with precise posture and subtle smiles when around strangers; Genuine displays of affection are preserved for friends and family.

Hulda’s pelt is dominated by cool shades of gray, tawny, and black markings appearing like a mask and blanket. Cream tips her muzzle, feet, and tail tip. Warm barley accents her under-eyes, cheeks and sits beneath the blanket marking. She has distinctive facial patterning that resembles eyeliner at the corners of each eye. She has full heterochromia with her left eye being blue and the other brown.

Her half-ling form is an intimidating sight; hulking and boxy in composition. The thickness of her fur in Secui adds bulk. The agouti patterning of her coat is more apparent as her markings expand across her body.

In Optime she has an athletic build, with a boyish physique owing to her narrow shoulders and small bust. Her hair is shoulder-length and messy, occasionally braided along her head and neck to keep it out of her way. When she does don clothing it is loose-fitting to enable a full range of movement. Jewelry is a guilty pleasure for the woman, as both her father and adoptive sister enjoyed wearing them and to an extent she does, too. A gift from her mother, a protective amulet carved in wood hangs from a leather cord tied close to her neck.
