CLAIRE DURAND

Gender: Female
Age: 20
Birthday: May 21st
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Special Characteristics: A fair share of smaller scars on her feet

Personality: Timid and serene at first glance, Claire tends to come off as a very carefree and even naive individual. It can often seem as if she does not fear anything since she remains very calm even in situations where her life is on the line. Like every other human being, she obviously does have emotions, but she's very good at concealing or even plainly ignoring them. Claire isn't an extremely emotional person to begin with, so outbursts of any emotion are extremely rare. She does, however, occasionally release any built-up anger or annoyance through sassy, passive aggressive or even plainly violent comments that can feel severely out of character.

Apparently gregarious, kind and helpful. People who meet her at first usually don't tend to feel fear or have doubts about her motives because she presents herself as a very open and peaceful mage. In truth, Claire has mastered various talents within the art of deception and manipulation, using a more fragile portrayal of herself to act as a shield. While she doesn't always fake these good deeds, it is very rare for Claire to go out of her way to help someone she has absolutely no interest in. Similarly, she won't attempt to harm anyone that's not in her way.

Calculating and intelligent, Claire is quite the cunning and determined sorcerer who isn't afraid of resulting to trickery to achieve her goals. She's loyal and honest only to those she respects and takes a liking of, meaning she's not always the most trustworthy ally to have. Nevertheless, she can be a great addition to any group that shares the same ideals and wishes as her.

In battle, the young adult often takes a more individualistic approach. Magic is obviously her primary fighting tool, but Claire does have a decent knowledge of various weaponry that could potentially aid her as well. Considering she is mostly used to fighting alone, she does sometimes struggle in groups or feels restrained under a leader. When willing, however, Claire does prefer to follow under someone's lead rather than take that role upon herself. This isn't necessarily because she can't uptake a position of leadership, she just never has before and is inexperienced and reluctant as a result.

Likes:
-Nature: Plant/Wildlife fascinates her. She prefers quiet forests and peaceful plains over the crowded cities and towns.
-Battle: Enjoys the thrill of a fight, although one-sided ones tends to be less interesting to her.
-Tea: Will never say no to a nice cup of tea.
-Music: Though favouring the more classically oriented/timid pieces, Claire does take a liking of music and finds it very satisfying and relaxing.

Dislikes:
-Technology: Claire doesn't have a clue how most machines work, nor does she really wish to further her knowledge about them.  
-Rules: She will listen to people she respects and agrees with, but any rules she disagrees with are quick to be broken.
-Pacifism: Conflict is a natural way of determining outcomes, and Claire does not believe they should be avoided. In her opinion, pacifists run away from reality and show nothing but cowardice.
-Cities: Dislikes severely crowded/busy areas, so it's only natural for her to not feel at home in such places.

Motivations:
-True Freedom: Being able to do whatever she wants to whenever she wants to. A wish for freedom has always been present within her.
-Revenge: More so an underlying motivation rather than a blatant one, Claire feels like overthrowing Earthland's order would be a great punishment to the few that have angered her in the past.
-A sense of belonging: Although having grown used to being relatively lonely, she does miss the feeling of being able to rely on more than just herself.

Fears:
-Imprisonment: Feared more than death, Claire finds the idea of losing all control over her own life extremely frightening. Being imprisoned is the worst torture she could possibly think of.
-Fragility: Not being able to fight back and stand up for what you believe in. The thought of not being able to do anything, to be useless, is most definitely scary.
-Banishment: Having been castaway at a young age, Claire kind of has an underlying fear of being thrown out of the group where she feels like she belongs once again.

General Appearance

Height: 5'5"
Weight: 113 lbs
Hair: Abnormally long green hair reaching down all the way to her thighs.
Eyes: Her eyes are a mild green with hints of blue blended in.
Skin Tone: She has a pale skin tone.
Appearance: Clothing wise, Claire's fashion sense is nearly nonexistent. She prefers simple outfits, regardless of how they may look. Comfort always comes first, although she does sometimes consider functionality when out on a job.

Guild: Basilisk Fang
Tattoo: Pastel Green, Located on her left shoulder.
