Name: Minerva “Minnie” Armada

Description (at least 100 words): As a sickly child, Minerva never grew to the same towering heights as her siblings, which only adds another dimension to her childhood nickname. Unlike the tall lineage from which she comes, she has maxed out at a meager 29 inches, just barely managing to claim a “medium” frame size. Her legs are thin and spindly, looking frail and weak, and the rest of her has fared no better. Her facial structure is all angles and sharp edges, her torso sculpted around her chest with a noticeable dip inward over her stomach. Her fur is not so smooth or fluffy or flattering, but instead clings to her frame in a thin, meager covering, ruffling up about her scruff and tail and seeming unkempt. She moves softly, daintily, and often cannot exert herself overmuch because of her weakened state. If pushed too far, she is forced to stop and catch her breath, a fact which will limit her activity in the long run.

In coloration, she takes primarily after her mother. Her coat might not be the same unmarked white that the regal Armada woman wore, but the same brilliance can still be seen across her upper body and covering much of Minerva’s face. The white darkens into a light shade of grey along her sides and covers her stomach and chest, flowing down each of her legs. A deeper, darker grey adorns her in particular markings, creating socks on each of her feet, coating the tip of her tail, covering each of her ears, only to spill down the back of her head and neck to end at a point midway down her back. The same dark grey wraps around each of her eyes and draws out from the corners into points, the darkness accentuating their vibrant, purple color. (Design #2)

Personality (at least 150 words): To start, Minerva is not her biggest fan. She detests the fact she got sick when she was younger to the point she was never able to keep up with her siblings, and resents them somewhat because of their good health and even better luck. A prideful creature by nature, she wishes to be self-sufficient and capable of doing things without assistance, but even so there is a part of her that still expects others to be willing to wait on her if and when she cannot or will not do for herself. She wants to push herself into bettering her overall stamina, to grow out of the frail thing she has become, but fears overdoing it.

The isolation she has lived in has altered her. While it has somewhat darkened her perception of her family and herself, it has also caused her to take up muttering her thoughts aloud when she thinks she is without company, and sometimes she may be caught doing it by others though immediately it will stop when she realizes someone is listening. Her odd mixture of pride and self-loathing make her a quiet individual, and highly critical of those she meets in the hopes of picking out their flaws in order to make herself feel better about her own. Even on her own siblings will she turn her critical stare, but as they are all she really has left in the world she tries not to give them an excuse to leave her alone as often as she had been during the initial months of her life.

Her harsh sentiments toward her condition will eventually alter as she ages, and her frail body will hide a mind both capable and conniving. She will use that frailty as a mask behind which to hide, learning to prey upon those who think her weak and fragile in order to feel powerful and in control. As she cannot keep up with fighters and hunters, she will likely take up the healer’s craft as a means of making herself useful, though it will be politics and the subtle art of manipulation that will appeal to her and give her the advantage she longs to have over her peers.

Other: I wanted to try going in a different direction compared to her siblings since it was available with her being sick and weak and confined until she was better, so hopefully that came across well (if something about it doesn't fit the current history, it can be changed). I’m also thinking she’ll be of a Neutral Evil alignment, so not too far off from her parents. I don’t have any plans in mind that I can think of aside from just seeing her possibly mature into the woman that I described for her personality. I did, however, want to mention that I would like for her to get one of the dyed fur markings, but don’t have a design for one presently. I might need some help with that if I get her, if anyone would be willing.
