Though the civic was quaint, it was a good place to be, for there was little oppression and interference from the governing lord of the land. As an only child for some time, Cateline grew introverted. She was quick to offer assistance to those who would teach her in return, but never received any formal education. Because of the involved network of socialization that the citizens had with her and each other, she learned to rely on other people who could compensate for the skills she lacked and flourished in temporary partnerships. Always sneaking around the woods behind her grandmother’s house since she was a child, Cateline has become adept at blending in to her surroundings and traversing difficult terrain. On one of her longer ventures, she stumbled upon a bubbling creek bed. Near the sandy edge of this brook, an abandoned baby chick of a buzzard hawk was nestled in some of the vibrantly green underbrush of the trees. Cateline searched for the nest the bird had likely fell from overhead, but found nothing, and decided to help the creature. Beginning to dabble in first aid, Cateline restored the animal’s health and started to assist wounded people where her slim knowledge of medicine was enough. Though she enjoyed being able to sooth the pain of others, Cateline soon found herself more interested in the active sport of bows and arrows, and her focus in life began to shift. In her late teens and early twenties, Cateline began to study archery. Coming from a family lacking much esteem or wealth, she crafted her weapon and ammunition herself with the assistance anyone more knowledgeable than her would offer her and through trial and error. At first, she wanted to learn simply for the sake of protecting of herself and her small family, and to participate in friendly competition among other archers, but as time passed, her skills increased enough that she felt an obligation to do more than remain passive. The final prompt for this change in her life came from the Sunlight Lance, who had recognized her skills and penchant for kindness at an archery tournament she had recently attended. Though she wrestled with the choice to leave the home she had lived in her entire life, her family urged her to join the organization, and she agreed to swear herself into the order. A fight for the greater good of humanity was more important than her own feelings or slim familial obligations. Cateline does not like the sight of death and thus chooses a way of fighting that allows her to partially remove herself from the field, but she knows the work she does is invaluable in protecting civilization as a whole. This keeps her motivated more than anything. While she can be somewhat timid when it comes to interacting with other individuals, Cateline wholly believes in the work of the Fair Lady and in protecting those who cannot fight. Despite her accomplishments, she still struggles with feelings of guilt for leaving her family. [Skills] You can improve 3 skills by 1 rank, regardless of their rank.
