Name: Violetta Garnier
Title(s): N/A
Gender: Female
Age: 20? 23? Violetta canāt quite remember how old she is. Itās somewhere in the early 20ās.
Descriptive Appearance: Violetta is 170 pounds with a slightly higher than average muscle mass, gained from her long hours of manual labor. She stands at a modest 5 feet 9 inches. Her skin has been dyed a light brown shade from the sun, and a heavy flurry of freckles cover her face, that are similar dark colored brown as her eyes. Violettaās hair has been messily done up in a āfrench braidā style, the thick black locks reaching down to her lower back. She has wide hips āMade for birthing grandchildrenā as her father would tell her.
Personality: Violetta tends to be more sheltered that the average citizen of Mortis due to her spending so much of her time separated from the world on the ranch. She isnāt very bright either, having received no formal education up to this point. This doesnāt make her a violent brute though; sheās very apathetic to others and has a good sense of morality. The girl works hard and always sees a job to its end.
History: Violetta Garnier was raised on the family farm and ranch on the outskirts of a town named Lakevale. Bruno Garnier, the girlās father, had spent many years building up a modest reputation for having some of the best livestock in the region. In fact, Bruno was so concerned with keeping this standing, that he had little time for his daughter and son, Emile. With their mother swept away on the coattails of adventure, the two young ones were left to be raised by one of the farmhands. In time Bruno would work himself to a decrepit state, leaving the labor to his offspring and hired help. This would be Violettaās life, wake up early, work the day away, sleep, repeat. While the young woman put in satisfactory work, her elder brother by a year was somewhat of a slacker and was more focused on what went on inside his mind than his work. Eventually Emile ran off to join the military, having fallen for the romanticized stories that heād heard as a youth.
With Emile gone, Violetta was to be the heir of the estate, and so her father felt it was time for her to find a strapping young man to continue the family legacy. While she didnāt really want to elope, Violetta didnāt have much choice in the matter, and it was arranged that sheād wed with a young farmhand named Joseph Kell. From here on the girl found her life to be different; instead of the long hours in the fields, Violetta would be shut up inside the family home just like her father. Life grew fairly dull like this, and so she was delighted when a letter came in from Emile, asking Violetta to visit the fort that he had been stationed at.
With family approval, Violetta would set out to Titanās Grave, with the one man entourage of Wesley, the farmhand who brought up both her and Emile. Upon arrival, the young soldier was surprised to see both of them, but wondered why they would visit so suddenly. Violetta was quick to bring up his letter, only to be even more confused than he, because Emile never learned how to write. The three would rush home to find The Garnier Farm and Ranch burned to the ground. Upon further inspection there were no bodies to bury, not even a single animal carcass. It was almost as if the place had been evacuated before the tragedy, but nobody in Lakevale had seen anyone from the ranch.
Feeling for his kin, Emile offered Violetta the option of enlistment, and with nowhere else to turn she accepted. They would both return to Titanās Grave, and even though Violetta would be a hard working recruit, she gained little altitude in her stature. Eventually she received strange orders to head out to a rural villageā¦
