Name : Scarlet Alard
Age : 22
Region : South Region
Personality : Scarlet is much like someone you would expect to come from the Southern Region. She's strong willed with a sharp tounge. The last thing she's afraid to do is speak her mind. In fact, she tends to voice her opinion much more than needed. Along with that she's very cocky and, at times, over confident. Scarlet doesn't joke much, unless she's speaking with sarcasm. She also tends to be stubborn and hot-tempered. Some of the smallest things could set her off, but it seems that her temper isn't permenant. Scarlet is never one to hold grudges and usually lets it go fairly quickly afterwards. When it comes down to seriousness, Scarlet is like an off and on switch stuck in the middle. She feels like she has a certain duty but at the same time she never seems to get too caught up in it. Her seriousness usually depends on the situation and even with that said she usually still has some sarcastic remark to make.
Background : She grew up as the only child of a previous thieft and the town's local healer. The harsh conditions proved rather unfavorable for child birth and rearing. So, even though her origins are from within the Southern Region, Scarlet was actually born in one part of the Western Region. Her parents had learned from previous experience that babies were usually unable to survive very long there. They had lost two other children before having her. Each didn't even make it to see their first year of life.
Scarlet lived in the Western Region until she was two years old. Since she was only two, she has little to no recollection of her time spent in the Western Region.
Afterwards, she spent her time living in the Southern Region, quickly adapting to the conditions of the desert. From there, her life was rather simple but since she lived in the Southern Region, it also meant she had to fight to survive. This was especially true when a time of drought would fall over the place. Her first drought occurred when she was 13 years old. Knowing that surviving meant possibly fighting, her father taught her how to properly wield and use a dagger, which explains why she uses it so well now.
Her mother tried to teach her the lessons and art of healing but Scarlet, as a reckless and rebelious teenager, showed no interest and preferred to be practicing her fighting skills rather than learning about how to heal.
When Scarlet was around 19, her mother was pregnant again and it called for a family road trip to the Western Region again. It was there that Scarlet was no longer an only child and now had a baby sister.
When the threat of Yggdrasil was first heard of, Scarlet's family was just beginning to return to the South. They had spent a longer time there than before due to her sister falling ill. But now they had another threat. Since sitting back and watching this threat attack was not on Scarlet's agenda, she left her growing family in order to try and protect them. Of course, the only proper way to do that was by slaying Yggdrasil. Or at least that was Scarlet's plan.
Noteable Skills/Abilities : Scarlet is exceptionally skilled at weilding her daggers. She can do anything from close combat with them to range throwing. She carries two, one for each hand. Both were inherited from her father.... He gave her one and she kind of stole the other one when she headed out on her journey. She has even learned to combine her expertise of daggers with her small knowledge of using lightning to strengthen her attacks.
While she doesn't know much about healing, Scarlet has some knowledge as to how to treat simple wounds and illnesses. But this only applies when using plants and herbs from the Southern Region. Her knowledge doesn't extend past that and may be foggy at times or things can get jumbled around. So it's kind of unrelieable.
