Diana Burton

Character: Diana Burton. Age: 26. Gender: Female. Race: Human. Sexuality: Lesbian.

Appearance: Diana is 5'7" (170cm) tall for a woman from medieval times. She has forever messy brown hair reaching her back. She has brown eye and a few freckles on her face. Her build is athletic and she has a few scars on her body from duelling.

Background: Diana was born to a noble English family in the XVth century, during the hundred years war. While growing up she loved listening to stories of knights and princesses and after she secretly learned how to read, she also started reading them herself. Though what caused Diana problems was that she never imagined herself to be the princess, she always felt like she wanted to be the knight and be the one to rescue a princess from a tower guarded by a dragon and later marry her.

In her teenage years Diana qucikly discovered that she was only attracted to women and that the perspective of being married off to some nobleman to secure a political alliance in the future terrified her. Whenever her parents tried to introduce her to noble boys her age she always made sure to be as unlikeable as possible to them so they wouldn't want to have anything to do with her romantically.

Diana often sneaked out to watch the knights serving her father during their trainings, one more friendly knight even let her train with him. He taught Diana how to wield a sword and how to ride a horse. After her father discovered what the knight was teaching Diana, he forbade her from seeing him not wanting his daughter to train like the men do, but Diana wouldn't have it, she continued sneaking out and even pretended to be a man with a higher voice just to be able to practice her skills.

When she turned adult, Diana met her first love, Lady Catherine Ravenswood. The two often spent time together and fell in love after Diana impressed Catherine with her fencing and horseriding skills. The two often sneaked out of the castle so they could spend time together near the lake, Diana always rode the horse with Catherine behind her. During those excursions and while spending time with her beloved, Diana felt truly happy, wishing it was possible for her to do so in the open and marry Catherine.

Unfortunately for the two their happiness only lasted a few years, Catherine's parents discovered the relationship and made sure their daughter could never meet with Diana again. After some time Catherine moved on and married a nobleman, though at least the marriage was happy and Catherine being bisexual did not mind being together with her husband.

Diana mourned the end of her relationship with Catherine for some time, she wished it didn't come to this. She was glad to hear Catherine was happy with her husband and didn't want to meddle in their affairs and as such never met with her former love again.

Soon after Diana turned 23 she heard the stories of Joan of Arc leading the forces of the French against the English. She was jealous that a woman could don armor and lead forces in battle. She wanted to become like Joan and took a set of armor and a horse from her family's castle and ventured into the English countryside wanting to set her own path in life.

After three years of a wandering lifestyle Diana heard of what happened to Joan of Arc and not wanting to suffer the same fate she decided she must act. She heard that a witch imprisoned in her family castle was supposedly able to transport people in time. She took the gamble and released the woman, her name was Ursa. Ursa wanted Diana's sword in exchange for aiding Diana. She asked the aspiring knightess where she would wish to end up. Diana answered that she would like to end up in times where she could pursue a path she chose and also marry another woman. Ursa prepared the potion and Diana ended up in the modern times after drinking it.

Diana woke up in England but almost six hundred years later. Ursa not wanting the woman to be completely unprepared for the future made sure to slip a piece of paper telling Diana to come back to her family castle's secret tunnels for further clues. Ursa's ancestors made sure to prepare convincing documents for Diana so she wouldn't have issues with modern bureaucracy. A piece of paper containing their address was placed in the secret rooms of Diana's castle. The knightess has no idea why she got a slip of parchment telling her to come to her castle in her pocket.

Personality traits: Diana is a very idealistic woman who wants to follow her dreams of becoming a knight and marrying a princess, the times have changed so she may need to readjust her goals to better fit the current times.

Diana has the knowledge of a XVth century person, she has no idea how modern technology works and gets easily startled by seeing things she doesn't know and hearing noises she doesn't recognize also scares her.

As a woman from the XVth century, Diana has very little spice tolerance.

Ursa's potion had some side effects, it adapted Diana's body to the modern days so she wouldn't get sick and also seemingly gave her the knowledge of modern English, though the way she speaks is archaic.

Diana is really competitive especially around those who diminish her abilities because she is a woman. She intends to prove herself and show others that a woman can also be capable.

Diana always loved romance stories and often rewrote them so that the main characters were two women. She always identified more with the knights than princesses.

Diana is always fully devoted to those she loves. She would do anything for them and even promise things that may seem impossible that word does not exist in her dictionary, but if she fails at doing something she ends up begging for forgiveness for underestimating the difficulty of the task.

Diana is eager to learn about the modern world no matter how long it may take and how often she gets startled by ordinary things, both the technological and societal progress the world has made in the years between her drinking the potion and waking up now.

Diana gets really easily attached to people, if someone is nice to her for some time they would gain her loyalty.

Diana is usually very polite, especially around women, but has short temper, when she gets angry she uses plenty of old fashioned swear words directed at the target of her frustrations.
