Description

WHEEZES, I'LL HAVE A PROPER HEADSHOT UP SOON I PROMISE.

- - - - - - - - - -

Name: Ursula
Alias: - - -
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Species: Arkadios, a species of humanoids born with varying ursine traits. Said traits can vary from small (bear-like ears, tail, or a noticeable abundance of body hair) to anything as large as a limb. While the species as a whole is blessed with sharper animal senses, these peoples are also hindered by a need to hibernate during the colder months. It is a commonly held belief among this species that the more prominent the ursine features one has, the greater the physical strength and charisma he or she possesses.
Height/Weight: 5'4'' | 140lbs
Job: Manual Laborer
Birthday: August 24

Personality: Straightforward and honest. Despite her well-meaning nature, Ursula is rather simpleminded and doesn't really consider the long-term consequences of her actions. She is quite naive in many regards, and usually opts to compensate for her emotional immaturity by substituting it with raw strength. While not the sharpest tool in the shed, she's a good listener and boundlessly determined. She's also the type to let her actions do the talking--which is her excuse for not doing much talking at all.

History: Ursula was born into a tribe of nomadic Arkadians that traveled the plains. As the second child of the chieftain's third wife, her position in life was expected to be of little consequence even before she left her mother's belly. It was what came after that was the problem. As soon as it became known that the infant had been born with a most rare and coveted trait, disagreements regarding the girl's fate began rising soon after. The arguments continued back and forth for years over young Ursula's head. While not entirely oblivious to her role in the worsening of relations between her parents, she opted not to take a side. Eventually, she decided to end the conflict in the only way she knew how--by leaving home.

At some point, the girl found herself in Prima. Drawn by the promise of mild winters, she's now attempting to set up a new life there as best as she can.

Additional Info: 
- Due to an upbringing surrounded largely by her own kind, she tends to forget that most other species can't really take a firm pat on the back without getting bowled over.
- The claws don't retract. It often makes for awkward situations, whether it's accidentally leaving marks in tables or puncturing important documents.
- To further complicate matters, she's a born leftie. Can occasionally forget to use her 'proper' hand.
- Talented fisher, thanks to her bear-like arm. Couldn't put it to use in a professional capacity however, because her claws constantly got tangled up in fishing nets.
- The living, breathing definition of a bull in a china shop.

Roleplay Methods/Availability: Headcanons and lit rps welcome! I'm relatively flexible about method, so feel free to give me a prod if interested!
