PERSONALITY

Personality: Nora is really down to earth. Sometimes too much. She enjoys being around nature, especially the messy parts of it. Water? Yes. Dirt? Definitely. Mud? Hell yes. She's a huge tomboy and kind of a country bumpkin. Her intelligence isn't too high, though she's very quick. She doesn't care much for schooling and is pretty lazy when it comes to homework. When it comes to something she wants though, she can be very determined. Her fashion sense has been traded out for an athletic sense and she would rather take a mud bath than a real bath (to most people's chagrin). She's pretty loud and she makes a great friend to have around. If someone bothers you, she'll be there to send them to the next town over.  She realizes that she's not the prettiest rose in the bush, yet she doesn't think she's hard to look at. She knows her teeth are weird and she has two left feet , but she also knows that her hair is pretty and her two left feet have more strength than most humans. And she's cool with that.

BACKSTORY

Born - Attending the University: 
Nora grew up in the swamps near St. Patrick's Grove. Her and her twin were very close, and it devastated her when he died. She lived in depression for a while, and it was made harder with kids from the town teasing her. They would call her Nose-a and walk around like neanderthals when she was near. She found boxing and used it to take out her frustrations. With that and the support of her family, she overcame her depression and was happy again. She started showing potential that her parents didn't see in their other children, and on her 18th birthday they revealed that they'd enrolled her in the academy. And that's where she is. 

EXTRA
- Okay so trollings (pronounced troll-lings) are a thing I made up. If there's anything like them please tell me. They're basically mini trolls. They make up the hard labor force of St. Pat's and some other towns, and while the swamp and forest populations are the largest, there are also others such as ice and fire. They're strong, not so intelligent, and have large families. They're pretty peaceful unless you start making fun of the species. Then they get mad. Just ask the wood elves.
- I took this from my old character Percy: Because she travels she may know others already. Like I'm pretty sure she's been to Emma's pie shop (just adding on to the never ending web of the Brookhavens). So feel free to have your character act like they know her!
