MAGICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Magical Abilities:
• Unknown: Alia is unaware she even has magical potential right now, let alone what sort of magic that might be.
MENTAL CHARACTERISTICS
Current Goal / Purpose: Escape her seemingly fate to be forced to marry a man and remain unhappy for the rest of her life.
Skills (Non-Magical):
• Cooking: Having grown up as a commoner and a woman, she was expected to know how to cook and clean for a potential husband. Thankfully, she is quite good at it - if she tried, she could rival one of the king's chefs.
• Herbalism: Coupled with knowing how to cook, she knows how to pick herbs, plants, and spices from the wilds, avoiding deadly poisonous plants as well.
• Quick Learner: Alia has a keen mind and tends to pick things up quickly, though she can get just as frustrated as anyone else when encountering something completely new.
Inabilities (Things she's not good at):
• Martial Combat: Being trained as a housewife a majority of her life has obviously left glaring inabilities in actual combat situations, not knowing how to even wield a dagger effectively.
• Horse Riding: Due to her knowing that a horse can trample her, she has some fear of them and of course this fear causes the horse to feel uneasy. Suffice it to say that she is bad at riding.
Fears:
• Being Alone: She has suffered emotional neglect most of her life, even from her parents thus fostering a fear of dying and being alone for the rest of her life. She would be glad even to just have a close friend.
• Insects: Though not as griping as her other fear, she does hate insects except for cute ones, like butterflies.
General Personality: Alia is a bit hard to get close to, but it's not hard to see that she is a sweet and kind soul despite any scars her heart might have suffered. She is also eager to learn and understand not only the world but others she finds interesting. She is noticeably patient and tries her best to be understanding of others.
Inner Personality: A true romantic at heart, but this also tends to make her keep a consistent guard up after having her feelings rejected so many times - from other women. She isn't the type to set candles, but rather show her feelings through support and trying her best to help out where she can. Alia is also unusually open-minded to others and their situations, not harboring the same hate that some others do for other races or cultures, but she is very passionate in doing the right thing.
Secret: Not something she normally shares with others, but she does have particular fantasies about the bedroom and a certain type of dynamic that she hopes to explore, if she ever finds the right woman.
HISTORIC BACKGROUND
Alia was born a commoner in the village of Gerald, though her mother died at child birth, leaving only her father to raise her. Soon enough though in her young childhood, her father married her aunt and the woman came to be her mother as she grew up, but she knew that she was not her real mother. Despite minor hiccups between her step-mother and herself, she grew up with a fairly happy childhood of her father being proud and loving his little girl, even though her introverted nature kept most of the other children away.
It wasn't until her young teenage years when she found that she was not like many of the girls and certainly not something her father expected. Alia was growing more and more curious of other women than she was of boys and the secret was soon out that she didn't even like boys at all. With her less-than-caring step-mother and her father not understanding and shunning her for her romantic options, she soon found herself being the outcast of the village. Her father continues to ignore the fact that she doesn't enjoy men romantically and often forces conversations about marrying a nice young man some day and having grandchildren. She has gotten to the point of desperately wanting to escape.
