Name: Jaina Evafrost Age: 23 Sex: Female Height: 5'8 Squad Role: Defender Appearance: [url=http://heroineimages.files.wordpress.com/2013/07/knightexemplar2.jpg]To Save Dah Space![/url] ((But Think of a Darker tone of Color to everything in this picture)) Origin: Madisha --- Background: Born into the Upper Middle Class, Jania was a child who knew how to be pleasant and be polite when need was quite a nice child growing up. In a family of 4 boys and 2 daughters, it wasn't a easy family in live it but it somehow worked out in the end. She learned about her family's traditions and ways. School and education wasn't much of a concern for her family as all they needed her to know was everything to please her future husband which they would marry her off to and didn't consider her needing anything of educational studies. Jania and her sister always competed against each other... well her sister always did as Jania herself never had the interest to listen to her as she always thought that everything was like a competition which made her sickening to be with. Her brothers on the other hand while annoying at times were much better company than her sister, who always strove to be the perfect 'women' in her parent's eye. Learning pleasantries and what-nots. While Jania herself was being taught by her four brothers, this was when she was 12 at the time. Her oldest brother taught her the basics of politics and helped her improve her 'etiquette' as a lady. Her second Oldest brother who was 16 was teaching her how to spar with swords and shields often sparring with each other as it was a favorite thing she loved to do in secret with her brothers helping them and herself as well. Her two youngest brothers on the other hand taught her how to read and write as they learned it as well learning how to have fun doing their studying while as well helping Jania in the process. Her brothers and Jaina both got along really well but her relationship with her sister didn't improve. And it remained like that for many years, even as they grew into adults, her sister soon got married off to a man but Jania herself refused to be married and left. When her brothers had heard of this they helped Jania as much as they could without being too suspicious. Her two oldest brothers gave her some gold and a map, while giving her some of their equipment which was a sword and a shield. While her two youngest brothers gave her a book with a rough outline of everything they learned. With that she took her with whatever she could along with the gifts that her brothers had gave her. This was when she was Seventeen and this was a long time now considering where she stands now as a proud and strong woman who now wants to show everyone what she can do now, after so much time as passed. And much has changed to Jania as she is no longer the honorable girl who left her home to go out to the world, now she was a harden person who did anything to survive as her life outside her home was harsh as difficult. Maybe it was her luck or maybe someone cursed her but she did't care as she will show them that she would do anything to make them regret to making her what she is today. --- Skills: -Her Combat is only limited to her Longsword as she can use her TowerShield in dire instances to bash others with certain success because of its height and weight it is quite hard to preform because of those two factors. -Jania is talented at defender herself and another with her TowerShield and although its a bit of a hassle to handle, after several years of wielding it and using it in combat she has gotten used to the weight. But its still troublesome to maneuver with it at times when she is in tight spaces and that there might be space issues. -Her skill in her Longsword is above average and is better than some soldiers but she isn't the best. But she cant deny she had some nice tips from her brother on how to fight with on and how to use it. So she has a good idea on how to improve her skill if she takes the time and patience to train. --- Reason for joining the Fifth Echelon: She wanted to show that she will not be like her sister, who wanted to do everything that her parents tell her to. As well as not letting anyone else control her as she wishes to have everything about her in her own control. But besides that reason, she wanted to join the Fifth Echelon so that she could get enough money to make a trip to see her brothers again and see how they are doing. If she lucky enough she can buy them somethings if they aren't rich and successful already. --- Other information: Her Family's Patron god is Burn, The Mother Of Earth. Her family and her worship her for the blessing of the land and her culture has done some... unique teachings which create some unique effects happen. Although these are taken as messages of the god these effects are minor at the most and aren't much of a concerned problem to be looking about. For it is mostly superstition to other people who dont know her culture.* Her Sword previous used was a steel long sword with a Wooden shield. But now she uses a Damascus Long-sword along with a decorated Tower Shield which she she looted from a battle once. She has done hard work over the years to improve the quality of her weapon and shield. --- The signature below, hereby, signs up Jania Evafrost under the service of the Fifth Echelon Mercenary Host, for a period of three months.

Signature: Jania Evafrost --- ((*These minor effects might be like Jania having her TowerShield being slammed down into the earth and make it harder for her to be knock down by a barrage of attacks. But like the earth being brushed by wind or water it will erode away so it isn't really that much of a powerup. And It also a moral booster or her so yay for her! ))
