Personality:
Tym is rough and tough. She has quite a temper and gets frustrated very easily. She has a hard time in school because she's high energy, has a very short attention span, and when she can't understand something she will get stressed out.
Tym can come off as angry and stubborn in school because of how frustrating it is for her and how hard it is for her to understand what's being taught. When she gets upset she doesn't cry or anything she start to hit and throw things.
Tym is high energy, she is always on the move. She is a total tomboy and loves being dirty and outside. She is wild and enjoys trying new exciting things. She wants to try to hunting sometimes along with building/carpentry, and mechanics.
Tym is odd when it comes to socializing. She doesn't trust people easily and will not open up to them, but she hates being alone so she will hang out around people. She is fine with playing with others, but always seems suspicious and like she's ready to run at a moments notice.
Despite being really rough around the edges Tym isn't a bad kid. She is very curious and extremely loyal once you gain her trust. She has her own moral code she lives by and likes to live by her own rules. She is head strong and can be very opinionated, but unless she's in a bad mood she is pretty polite. She doesn't judge people and is pretty laid back, except at school which stresses her out.
Tym loves animals, and not in the creepy way either. While she wants too learn to hunt she believes hunting is purely for getting food and won't hurt an animal otherwise. [/bg]

Biography:
Tym was found in a garbage dumpster by the garbage man. They took her to the hospital and judged her to be about 2 weeks old and that she was probably a pre-me.. Her family and her identity could not be found so she was turned over to CPS.
The nurses who helped take care of her while she was in the hospital worked together to pick out her name.
Tym has been through many foster homes in her 8 years and experienced a lot of abuse which is where her trust issues come from. She never seemed to stay long because she would either be thrown out, removed, or, as she older, she'd run away. This was problematic for her schooling too because she was always changing school or missing school due to the abuse she experienced in her various foster homes.
Tym's last foster home she was severely neglected. One of the most common punishments was too be locked in a small box with wholes in the top. Her foster 'parents' would sometimes kick the box down the stairs when they were especially angry with her and her other foster siblings.
Tym spent 3 months in that home before she and the others were removed. Non of the kids were fed a lot and Tym lost a lot of weight becoming severely malnourished.
She was placed in a girls home, which she hated mostly except for one girl named Danni who introduced her to dying her hair. Tym wasn't in the home long before Danni went back to her family and Tym found out she was being fostered again.
Room-mate: Delilah [/bg]

Extra:
She has ADHD, dyslexia/dysgraphia, possible dyscalculia, and struggles in school.
She also possibly has PTSD.
Tym prefers a roll out bed-mat or the floor to a bed. She really doesn't like beds, even just a mattress on the floor.
Tym doesn't have many earthly possessions. Anything she did own seems to get destroyed in her fosters homes either by her foster parents or by foster siblings.
Tym tends to hoard food. If she can get her hands on food she will hide it and store it somewhere other than the kitchen because she is afraid of being starved or having it taken away from her. [/bg] [/bg]

ANOTHER EDIT: I will add feelings about family after she meets them...
