Biography:

Sylvia was born in Greifburg, Hanseti-Ruska on July 14th. Ever since she has been able to understand Common, she has always been taught to be proud, not because of who she descends from, but because who she is as a person. Life as a child in Ruska is harsh and cold, and this made her seem a little more masculine when it came to manners or feelings from the abuse of the Northern life.

 

As a young child, she was taught simple things, like how to mend clothing and how to sew up wounds. She was also taught how to cook not only for others, but for herself. It wasn’t before long that she was required by her father and her elders to begin training in a fighting style. She was provided with funding by her father and mother to travel to a school that taught how to wield a great-sword. She started traveled to the school at the age of 15. She had a few initial issues, for she wasn't built as a male was, which only fueled her drive to be better. At the age of 16, she started to build herself to become even stronger than she already was becoming. During this time, the school required her to constantly balance heavy objects while she had to keep her composure so she could reach their rank, Trainee.

 

During her mid-teen years, she progressed further in her fighting style, doing her best to focus on being able to carry heavy weight such as holding a great-sword across her arms out in front of herself while walking around. After about six months had passed that she progressed to Novice in the school. She trained in techniques of the great-sword such as large cleaving rotations of the blade, and lunges while holding the blade outwards in stabbing motions. Even during that time after, she was still required to do mental coordinating tasks and to carry heavy weights.

 

In her early adulthood (18), she was often sent out against other students to practice the use of the great-sword constantly. This put her at Student. During this time, she was heavily tasked to push her mental stability and patience to the edge. She spent her time training with these students so she could progress even further with the use of her great-sword, which helped her further understand how to counteract with opponents in fights. Two of the things they focused on were precise hits and quick responses to an opponent’s attacks-- such as hitting the same spot on a piece of wood repeatedly and striking at opponent’s openings as she was occasionally on the receiving end of their training. She did this for a year until she turned 19, perfecting her techniques as a wielder of the great-sword as she made it to the Fighter level.

 

She was finally considered a Warrior around the age of 21. This was only due to her pure concentration and focus on the fighting style, as such it was the only thing she focused on. She could go out and take on a group of two to three at one time, given that she had set up a few distractions, or had some assistance from her comrades. The matter she seemed to focus on most of all was self-control and making sure their hits made their mark.

 

For the rest of her early adulthood, she went back to traveled all around Ruska to fight for her family and often defended them from thieves and looters, for they had paid her school. By the time she reached the age of 33, she had become a Champion and continued the use of her skill.

 

She trained others for two years as a champion in the use of the great-sword before she took a single moment to let down her guard. During this moment of her being alone, she was attacked from behind by someone who was less than happy about her killing one of their relatives whom had attacked her the previous day. She responded accordingly to their attack, but when a few guards happened to walk upon the scene, it appeared that Sylvia was the one who had attacked the person that had just attacked her. She was brought to questioning for her acts, but Sylvia knew how close of a friend this person was with the judge, so instead of going through with the trial, she decided to run. Respect for her was immediately lost by all she knew as she was chased out of Ruska by mercenaries and the warriors within it.

Over the following days, she knew she had to find a way to get away from those who knew what she was blamed for, and she wasn’t willing to stop running, so she never did stop. Eventually she reached Adelburg in Oren and has been traveling about ever since.

She has been in various groups for her sly mouth, her fighting skill, and her strong attitude. She currently spends her days looking for those whom might follow her as a band of mercenaries, as well as trying to get anyone to work for her that is worthy of her time.

Personality Traits:

•             Sylvia is rather blunt and straightforward. She will do what she wants when she wants which makes her also come off as extremely stubborn. Sylvia is very well beyond the bounds of being a risk-taker, for she believes in acting first and asking questions later. In a situation where she has either the chance to try and talk things out, or solve things with aggressive negotiations (a sword), she would rather use aggressive negotiations.

•             When it comes to how Sylvia feels on the inside, it really depends on her situation. In a situation that might cause her pressure, she will act extremely driven and will give direct orders to people which makes her commanding. She can't stand people who don't do what she says. In a situation where she is not pressured too much, she will act rather soft and understanding. If someone approaches her calmly, then she will be more than willing to negotiate or talk about whatever they wish to discuss. This is from her mother who tried to teach her to voice herself. The only thing she truly fears is loneliness because she hates being idle with nothing to do. Overall, she is very confident in herself when it comes to dealing with high-pressure situations.

•             Sylvia has three areas where she classifies people: normals, trusted, and family. Normals are the average joe’s that walk around on the street that she doesn’t know much about, and doesn’t trust. She is willing to bend their minds however she sees fit which makes her manipulative. Trusted people are like her friends or allies that is she willing to protect and guard if she doesn’t fall to the assurance of certain death. Family are those people that she will die for, and those that she is willing to tell almost anything. When she is comfortable around those she trusts, she tends to act rather flirtatious. If any of her family members are hurting in any way, she will do her best to find out how she can make them feel better, which can make her seem caring.

•             Sylvia works on her own logically based system. If she doesn’t see a way she will profit from something, she will simply not do it. She does what she feels is best during that moment which makes her rather spontaneous. She believes that she must do her best to have power over others so that she can lead them to situations where they will only have a gain. She does not see corruption, vampires, undead, or possessed as bad unless they are a threat to her, or if what they do is not backed up by a logical reason for them to do what they are doing for survival.

 

Ambitions: She already is what she has aspired to be, and quite enjoys it. That being an extremely skilled fighter. Though currently, she aspires to make money and ‘friends’ that will allow her to expand her current monetary standing.

 

Strengths/Talents:

Wielding of the Great-sword- Sylvia has trained since she was 15 at a school that taught how to use a great-sword. The fact that knows how to use the great-sword (zweihander/flammburg) fits in perfectly with her rough and dynamic personality, making her a very formidable opponent. She is constantly running around and exercising herself to maintain the strength required to wield such a large blade. She can easily lift her own weight, and is easily able to use the momentum of her own body which especially comes in handy when using the greatsword.

Strong Ambition- Sylvia's drive and strive is astronomically high. She will do almost anything to get what she wants as long as she sees that it has more benefit than loss. This comes from how her mother constantly pushed her to be more, and how she was taught that failure equals punishment. She will not stop once she sets her mind on something, and even if someone tells her not to go for something she will go for it anyway. She constantly strives to be better than what she is in her current state at any moment.

Authoritating- She can be seen as overly commanding to even the most understanding eyes. Her being trained to state things dramatically has contributed to her seeming almost “scary” as other have described her when it comes to her giving orders. She will support herself like a well-rounded and proper woman when being idle. This enables her to be rather vibrant and can usually get people’s attention when it is needed. She is extremely strong-willed which helps support her commanding stature.

Weaknesses/Inabilities:

Erratic- Sylvia likes to do things her own way no matter what anyone else says. She often deviates from what she says and then bends it. People tend to not appreciate this part of her so they often don’t trust her. Her attitude can randomly change without notice, and she can have a tantrum at any moment. Not only that, but she acts different from what is expected of a female during this age in time, which makes her look bad and repulsive to most.

There are many more weaknesses; however, those have been left out to avoid metagaming by others. They’ll just have to find out ic. ?
