[b]Weapons:[/b] Red carries around a couple hidden daggers within her boots and belt. She also uses a bow and arrows (favorably) and has been known to wield dual blades. [b]Strengths:[/b] Tracking, hunting, survival, natural instincts, heightened senses. Whenever Red is in the forest, she will never perish as the forest is like home to her. Her keen sense of smell and sight also make it easier to track down either people or potential food. [b]Weaknesses:[/b] Red often times reverts back to her past when she was unable to control the wolf inside of her and often times blames herself for things she couldn’t control. She is also very sensitive when it comes to her granny and will do whatever it takes to protect her. As a wolf, the only known thing to be able to hurt her is a silver dagger. [b]Relationships:[/b] Granny, who she has spent her entire life with and was raised by. Snow White, arguably her best friend. Anita, her mother who is since deceased. [b]Brief Bio:[/b] Red was a very little girl when she lost her father and two brothers to the Wolf and has since been raised by her own Granny. Many, many years later, Red and Snow were out to find the wolf to put an end to all the death during Wolfstime, however what they found nearly broke Red's heart. A set of footprints in the snow that led to Red's window led Snow and Red to believe that Red's boyfriend, Peter, was the wolf. Snow White, however, had other matters she had to attend to but Red decided that she needed to stay with Peter and help him; what if he didn't know he was a wolf? She let Snow go and found Peter, telling him of her findings on the wolf who had been terrorizing the village. Believing that he really was the wolf, he chained himself up to a tree so that when he transformed, he couldn’t hurt anyone. Red stayed with him the entire night, however it came to be that it was Red who was the wolf, and since Peter was chained up, he became a snack for Red as she was unable to control (or even remember) her wolf part. Red didn't even realize what had happened until her Granny came just as it was too late with Red's red cloak and draped it over the wolf, which instantly transformed Red back into her human self. Overly distraught by killing her love, Red fled into the forest, unable to bring herself to return home where she and Peter had shared so many memories. It wasn't until a few days later, still hiding out in the forest, where she heard of Snow White's death, and blames herself. If she would have gone with Snow, then The Evil Queen Regina wouldn't have killed her, and Peter wouldn't be dead. Red went to visit Snow's resting place once, however she stayed by her best friend's lifeless side for days. She didn't acknowledge the dwarfs who were there, only staring blankly at her best friend and feeling the guilt of the two deaths wash over her time and time again. She decided to leave Snow's resting place and let herself become victim to the forest; she wouldn't even put up a fight. However, in her wandering, Red came across her mother who she believed to be dead, however she was also a wolf and in hiding with a whole pack of werewolves. Red stayed with her new-found mother and taught Red how to control (and remember) being the wolf when she transformed. One day, a lost little boy happened upon their den and Red's mother wanted the boy immediately killed since he knew where their den was located. Red, however, couldn't allow this to happen and in a struggle to help save the boy, Red killed her own mother. Red returned the little boy to his village, but she kept on going...deeper and deeper into the forest to once again find a reason to live. Anything at all. Lest, she will let the forest consume her. [center]*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*[/center] [b]Name:[/b] Ruby [b]Appearance:[/b] [img]http://sparkleonandwearbows.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/redruby-1.jpeg[/img] [b]Age:[/b] 26 [b]Status and Job:[/b] Waitress at Granny’s Diner [b]Skills:[/b] Ruby is pretty damn good at playing the social game; especially when it comes to men. By using her sexuality, Ruby can practically make any man do anything she wants within reason, however this usually only includes things such as getting a guy to buy her a drink or give her a ride home or even sometimes getting two guys to fight over which one can take her home for the night. [b]Talents:[/b] Being a waitress for as long as she can remember, Ruby has immaculate balancing skills when it comes to larger dinner orders, and can walk with ease in six-inch heels. She also has a sense of fashion that really shows off the assets of her body while also reflecting her personality. [b]Strengths:[/b] Ruby is a head-strong individual that isn’t afraid to speak her mind. When it comes right down to it, she will fight tooth-and-nail for what she believes in and oftentimes sways other people to agreeing with her way of thinking. She also has a rocking body that she isn’t afraid to show off in the least and has a very good fashion sense when it comes to clothes and makeup that help bring out the greatest features in her body. She can hold her liquor exceptionally well for a girl as thin as her, and has proven on a couple of occasions to be able to drive home drunk without screwing anything up. She is also a loyal friend to those close to her, and will do anything to help them if it is in their best interest, however she’s unafraid to tell her friends that they are complete morons if what they want isn’t in their best interest. [b]Weaknesses:[/b] Ruby can be very opinionated, which can get her into a lot of trouble since she sees things a bit differently than what would be considered the ‘norm.’ She also likes to dress up in items of clothing that hardly cover anything about her, thus giving her the reputation of an easy girl looking for a good time. Ruby personally has no problem about this, but the other people in town who aren’t men ogling after her have a big problem with having a harlot running around town. Ruby also hates responsibility. She wants to party all the time and when her Granny asks her to open up the diner in the mornings, the whole town can hear their fighting. She fights a lot with Granny, and thus does not have a good relationship with her even though all Granny wants to do is to teach her responsibility, but Ruby just isn’t interested. [b]Relationships:[/b] Ruby seems to know most all of the men in Storybrooke, and seems to have had some sort of relationship with all of the ones within her age range. Her Granny owns the town’s most common eatery, Granny’s Diner as well as Granny’s Bed and Breakfast where they use a separate part of the building as their own home. [b]Brief Bio:[/b] Ruby works for her Granny in both the Bed and Breakfast and the Diner. Ruby usually takes the late afternoon or night shifts since she likes to stay out late and sleep in all morning if she’s even there at all, since most of the time she gets out of work to go and enjoy the company of a man. She has no interest in any sort of ‘serious’ relationship, she’s having way too much fun partying the nights away and staying single, allowing herself to have more fun as well as keep a sense of freedom about her. Not being tied down to anyone is the best feeling to Ruby, and she doesn’t see herself wanting to settle down for a long, long time.
