Full Name: Linwe Saralonde
Species: Elf
Height: 5'7''
Weight: 115 lbs
Weapons: Tetsugin, a knife attached to a wire. The wire wraps around her left glove from the wrist to the elbow, forming a plate of wire up her left forearm. The knife is basically a kunai attached to a wire.
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Overall Description: Linwe has long, silvery/black hair that falls around her waist. Her hair has a light shine to it that makes it seem silver in the moonlight even thought it's actually a deep, rich black. Her eyes shift from a honey-golden color to a deep jade green. Across her left eye is a long scar that runs from just above her eyebrow down to the middle of her cheek. She can't see almost anything out of her left eye besides faint, blobs of movement. Linwe is incredibly thin, but not so thin that she looks sickly or frail. She wears a pair of fingerless leather gloves to keep the wire from her tetsugin from cutting into the soft flesh of her hands.
History: Linwe grew up in the forest and was taught to cherish and care for it as she could. She was also taught how to defend her forest if she needed too, but the only weapon she could work with was the tetsugin. Her mother, a master at using the tetsugin, taught Linwe all she could before she was killed in a forest fire trying to protect her family and her forest. Her father had died years before, killed by a human her father was only trying to help.
Linwe's abilities with the tetsugin are amazing. While most can only swing it in circles, Linwe can make the blade dance at the end of the wire and slash at anyone or anything she aims at. She practiced every day like her mother had asked her too before she died of her burns, and improved greatly. Linwe can be found often practicing with her tetsugin, trying to prove to her mother that she is indeed worth using the weapon.
While Linwe was growing up, she also learned how to make potions and poisons out of the plant life around her. While she rarely uses them, when she needs to Linwe will coat her knife with a poison that will kill the intended victim quickly so they won't have to suffer.
When Linwe was twelve, a man had come to attack her mother for a reason unknown to Linwe. However, her mother wasn't home when the man came to fight her and he kidnapped Linwe. Linwe's mother came to find her, and a battle ensued not long after she found her. During th battle, Linwe got in the way of an attack that was suppose to kill her mother, resulting in the scar and blindness of her left eye.
A year ago, Linwe found a small fox cub with it's foot caught in a trap. Furious, she set the cub free and tended it's wound until she was able to leave. However, the fox didn't leave Linwe, and can now be found at her side at all times.
Personality: Linwe is almost emotionless, never showing anything on her face or in her eyes. Ever since her mother died, she hasn't felt the urge to smile or be happy, and she hasn't cried since she lost her only family. Linwe can be kind, despite her emotionless exterior, and always at least attempts to make others smile when she cannot.
Linwe isn't a cold-hearted person just because she doesn't show her emotions. She attempts to make friends, although most don't want to even so much as talk to her. While this never appears to bother Linwe, she has always wanted to have a friend.
