Relationships:

• Mother: Elnore Belnas, the widow of a minor provincial noble, who raised Lenore as a single parent when her father was killed in a war. A kind and caring woman, she lived with Lenore in a small chateau in rural Taures, along with having taught her magic until she left to adventure.

Appearance: Long, messy and layered, wavy dark-greenish hair with sidelocks, but longer and side-pinned on her left and tied up with a ribbon, going over the front of her shoulder. Dark-greenish irises that match her hair colour. Short stature and slender frame, with a medium sized chest. Youthful, beautiful appearance with pale porcelain-like skin. Slightly callused hands.

Dress: Plain, black, gothic style silk dress, shortened for ease of movement, with long sleeves and ruffle cuffs, and a low neckline with frills. A white, high-collar blouse worn underneath, showing at the neck. Black, leather travel boots.

Personality: Adventurous and slightly reckless. Lenore loves to travel and explore, in spite of, or because of the danger that said travel might involve. Seeing new views, meeting new people and learning of new places is her greatest joy in life, and it makes her a free-spirit, unwilling to be bound in one place for too long, preferring the thrill of adventure.

Friendly and kind. Is generally polite and nice to other people, and can oftentimes lack boundaries with other people due to travelling alone. She has a somewhat idealistic view of others, preferring to give them the benefit of the doubt, and while she might not go out of her way to do it, doesn't mind helping people out. At the same time, she has no problems with being alone.

Intelligent and observant. Lenore is a quick thinker, skilled in both makeshift problem solving and the traditional academic intelligence required of mages. She is also good at paying attention to things others ignore, noticing small details, though this is limited when it comes to social situations.

Affectionate and clingy to the people she cares about. With people she's close to, she loves giving hugs and other displays of affection, and generally wants to spend lots of time with them. Furthermore, she loves to shamelessly tease people as her form of love language. However, she can begin to feel uncharacteristically lonely when separated from them for a long period of time, which is why she's hesitant in making deep and lasting connections.

Slightly lazy, doesn't like putting in too much effort into things she's not passionate in, and often likes to laze around all day when taking a break from travel. She can also be quite gluttonous, eating a lot of food for her small figure.

Speech: Generally calm and soft-spoken, but can have flashes of bubbly cheerfulness. Occasionally forgets to respond to people due to being alone for extended periods.

Belongings:

• A black, medium-sized bag slung over her shoulder containing her things.
• A locket strung around her neck, under her blouse which contains a portrait of her mother.

Likes:

• Travelling and adventure
• To be called Lena over Lenore
• Natural scenery
• Cats
• Autumn
• The wind
• Dressing up (Can be quite vain, and thinks a girl should always look cute over practicality)
• Magic
• White flowers
• Cute girls
• Sleeping in
• Gorging on food (Likes bacon, and incorrectly thinks eating a lot will help her grow taller)

Dislikes:

• Being stuck in one place
• Working for funds
• Dried meat
• Nobles (slight prejudice)
• Rain
• Summer and the summer heat
• Having to take care of her hair
• Being short
• Getting asked how old she is (Thinks you shouldn't ask a maiden her age)

Backstory: Lenore was born in a small country estate to a minor noble father, who was lost to war when she could still barely walk, and the forgotten daughter of another minor family. Far from the glamour of the capital and the great houses, Lenore enjoyed a simple and quiet life with her mother in the manor left behind to them. But she had always been curious. Her imagination and dreams extended far beyond the limited confines of the small provincial estate she lived in. Tales of great adventurers and heroes filled her mind from the childhood stories her mother would tell her as she lay in bed on a rainy night, and she tirelessly practiced and learned magic in pursuit of one day following in the footsteps of the travellers of lore to see the world for herself. But even as she grew up to be a talented mage, often helping the peasants around the village with her magic, and offing the occasional wandering demon, she couldn't merely leave. No matter how much she fantasised, Lenore needed an actual plan and preparations to go off exploring the world, and most importantly, she couldn't simply leave her mother behind. But her mother had other plans.

As much as Lenore's mom wanted to be with her, she knew that Lenore wasn't someone who should stay cooped up in some rotting country home far from anything important. And so, she let her go. Giving her the funds and supplies she needed, along with her blessing, Lenore hesitantly but excitedly went off into the world to fulfill her childhood dreams, promising to return one day safe and sound. Visiting the royal courts of the continent, accepting quests, and seeing the sights she'd only ever heard of in song or poetry. The arboreal forests of the northern borderlands, the plains of the central continent. And even after all that, there was always more to explore, more to see.

But something was lacking. In every legend, every story of a great hero, they never travelled alone as she did. One couldn't slay golems without help, or sit around a campfire talking about life, the classic cliches, and to be fully honest, Lenore was just a bit lonely. She missed her mom, and any friends she managed to make, she had to leave behind. But finding a travel companion who would leave everything behind to travel the world with her was easier said.

Skills:

• Skilled mage: Can create a limited number of objects by transfiguring earth, and can control these objects. (I.e, make metal swords from the ground and launch them at hostiles).
