A very toilsome character; she's at the same wanderlusting, thieving level
of a kender- in fact she is rather close friends with Hollycat Thistlethorn, though Astrid is not a kender. She has a knack
for making others either laugh or steam at the ears.
Basics:
Race: Human
Age: 18
Pet: Six, an average-sized pigeon with black and white feathers.
Personality: Fun-loving, wild, outgoing; she comes off as flirtatious, though
she means absolutely nothing by it half the time. She's very tomboyish.
Strengths: She makes stealing an artform; optimisitc, not very easily angered;
she has a little magic talent but nothing special.
Weaknesses: Reminders of her past.
History: Astrid's parents died in a rather malicious trainwreck when she
was 6 years old; she was sent to an orphanage because most of her other family members were either in other countries, did
not want/could not afford her, or were dead. Her family comes from a rather impoverish background. At 8 she met Ryan, another
orphan who also lost his parents in an accident, and the two quickly became friends. They often ran away from their foster
homes to live off of stealing and begging on the streets, getting into trouble on occasion and experiencing much of life
at a young age together. At roughly 13, Astrid developed a love for Ryan, but to keep short words, Ryan betrayed
her to public security when his own life was at stake, and abandoned her to join the local town's militia.
Astrid escaped the grip of prison and went searching for Ryan; eventually
she found him dying in an alleyway; he had cheated a dealer and there was a bounty on his head, though the dealer reached
him before the bounty.. Ryan apologized for his mistakes, and Astrid, being a sappy-young-love teenager at the time, forgave
him and promised to avenge him.
At 15, Astrid was wandering alone on the streets after abandoning her last
foster home. She then met Hollycat, who now accompanies her most of her journey to find Ryan's murderer..
