BIRNA GYDA VOLKOV ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~ LITTER/FAMILY:Kaisin x Genya Planned sister to Bjorn (Tea's app) and sister to Adalgisa, haha I have to write it out to keep it straight GENDER: Female AGE: 1 year SIZE: 42" APPEARANCE: Design #6 Birna boasts an agile, yet sturdy build that lends to the fearsome appearance of this bear woman. She matches her brothers height at 42" though not quite his weight, her own resting around 175 pounds. Angular bone structure lends elegance and sharpness to her face while corded muscle make up her strong chest and powerful thighs. Slightly larger than average paws complete her appearance and give added stability to powerful limbs. PERSONALITY: Stern and calculating, Birna is a quiet and cautious femme with an intimidating aura. Despite her size she moves with silent precision and is rarely someone who enters a scene with a splash. She slips in softly and those that are unaware might not even notice her. Despite her seemingly aloof nature, Birna is reasonably friendly and will shoot the breeze with strangers though her tendency is always to glean as much from simple conversation as she can in case she should need to protect herself or her brother. While lacking a boastful ego Birna is still confident in herself and her abilities particularly in the arts of battle. She is rarely one to back down from a challenge. This woman boats a brutal nature in battle that can even border on the cruel. She believes in giving her all in a fight and sees fisticuffs as a personal insult to her skills and abilities. Persevering and stubborn, Birna does not fall easily. She accepts loss with unexpected grace though there is almost always the promise of violence to follow in a later rematch. She's spent her life surviving and she plans to continue to do so with her brother at her side. There is little this woman fears and her strong sense of loyalty to those that have earned her trust make her a dependable and valuable companion. Patient and calm, Birna is not easily riled. Often she attempts to be the rock to her brother's, Bj?rn's, flame hoping to give his temper and changing moods something to move safely around. She wants to be there to support him through anything that happens. Bj?rn is her greatest treasure and strongest bond and in her mind he comes before all else. There is a playful side of Birna though as is her style it is subtle, quiet, dry and perhaps a little coy. She will tease and jest though only around those she is comfortable with, unless of course she desires to fight. Birna is not above luring others into battle with her words though mostly the mischievous notes of her personality are meant for her brother and close family. Remnants of the more outgoing woman she might have been if circumstances had been a little kinder. HISTORY:Born to a litter of 4 after the coup, Birna was born into the chaos of a kingdom struggling to right itself. Paranoia was everywhere, especially in the ruling class and those marked by the Xanilov line were key targets of ridicule and suspicion. Birna kept to herself, her quiet and reserved nature developing rapidly at an early age. Any wrong move, any foolish question could mean death in the eyes of a paranoid government. Age was no excuse. As such Birna learned to keep herself under control and to be suspicious of all but the brother she was closest to, Bj?rn. Though this did extend to her other siblings as well. Everyone else was to be suspected as a potential spy looking for scapegoats. However, Bj?rn was not able to keep so low key and his antics soon brought the attention of the higher ups and he was forced to flee. Unwilling to be separated from him Birna fled as well. HOW DO THEY FEEL ABOUT THE XANILOVS?: Indifferent yet curious. Birna has heard much ill of the Xanilovs but her experience under the current regime has been no better. Curious as to what these Xanilovs are really like she's content to find them and see for herself. PLANS FOR THEM:Will follow her brother to Alacritis in search of the Xanilov family and any other connections they might still have. She will refer to herself as a Xanilov in a simple masquerade meant for self-preservation as well as to gain the answers she seeks. What Birna desires most of all is a reasonable amount of security for her and her brother. Flush with her love of battle she would be content as a warrior or perhaps even a general. The woman no longer wants to be thought of as a commoner or worse yet vile scum.
