[color=7ea7d8][b][u]Habits/ticks/quirks [i](etc)[/i]:[/u][/b][/color][list]
[*][u]Reckless and stubborn[/u]- Ris has made a habit of displaying reckless behaviour, she doesn't care much for planning or her own safety when she believes to be doing the right thing.
[*][u]Frequent smirk[/u]- Some might think her mocking everyone around her with her smiles and smirks. But she's just the type who prefers to smile and tuck away all her other emotions.
[*][u]Dreamer[/u]- When she isn't on-duty, Ris often loses herself in thoughts. She likes to  ponder philosophical and morale issues, but tries to ignore her own most burning questions such as; [i]Is it right to take justice into my own hands? Don't Magi have a sliver of humanity in them and if so, what would justify my judging them?[/i], since they only frustrate her.
[/list]

[color=7ea7d8][b][u]Skills/Talents/etc.:[/u][/b][/color][list]
[*][u]Huntress[/u]- Ris is a skilled huntress and especially gifted with her bow. She knows how to track game (and other targets) and survive far away from civilization thanks to years of experience. She also has (although limited) skill fighting with knives but her forte most definitely lies in the long-range.
[*][u]Perks of being a lady[/u]- Growing up in a prominent household, she received a good education (due to which she knows some things about topics ranging from history and economics to cooking and medicine) and has quite a few connections in other settlements. Her way of speech and how she carries herself tend to betray her upbringing and make it hard for her to blend in with commoners. 
[*][u]Violin player[/u]- There are few things Ris enjoys more than playing the violin, which she has been doing since age four.

[*]Feeling ignorant- or being accused of ignorance

[/list]

[color=7ea7d8][b][u]Personality:[/u][/b][/color]
[indent]Ris can be very unforgiving and she blames the existence of Magi for her personal losses, as was taught by her religion and upbringing and confirmed by later experiences. To her Magi equal untrustworthiness.

She doesn't care much for her own safety, but feels all the more responsible for the lives of those under her command. Most people see her as a very serious woman with a natural authority, but when she's around friends, she can't help but smile broad and often and is always in for a joke. She can lose herself in a hunt or when playing music, which are the things that help her relax and unwind from her responsibilities.

[color=7ea7d8][b][u]Bio/History:[/u][/b][/color]
[indent] Jeanne Christina Roussin is the daughter of high-priestess Sophie Roussin and former Fishermen Guild leader Charles Roussin. Most of her life has been divided into two aspects; 
	She spent spring and summers with her aunt on mother's side in the wilds, where she learned how to survive and fend for herself. During these summer she also developed a strong sense of self and character and learned about the faith of Lemäika. 
	Autumn and winters were spent at home in the town of Elmend, where she cultured more 'civilized' traits such as an appreciation of music, carpentry and the finer things of life. This dual upbringing was to prepare her for following in the footsteps of her father, to become a prominent council-member backed by the power of the faith. Her whole life had been planned for her but on Ris’ request her mother waited to play matchmaker and plan her wedding until her 20th birthday.

A year ago, not long before her birthday, life as Ris knew it was disrupted when her father was assassinated (along with the burgomaster and a dozen other prominent council members of her hometown Elmend). A group of disgruntled Magic Users were behind the attack and plunged the town into turmoil. In the aftermath of this incident, the hate Christina had been taught to feel for Magi only grew and she happily joined a group that set out to hunt rogue Magi and bring them to justice. Her mother disagreed fiercely, pleading with her to become a priestess of Lemä or grasp this opportunity to demand a seat on the council. But Christina had set her course which resulted in a falling-out with her family, which is something that still haunts her. Half a year ago she left Elmend and hasn’t returned since.

So far Ris (a nickname she soon started using rather than her given names) has gladly seized her freedom and the opportunity to travel. Her natural authority and cross-settlement connections soon allowed her to climb up to a position with responsibilities and some command within the loosely organised group of bounty hunters. For the past few weeks Ris has been leading a group of five others, chasing an infamous rogue Magi, determined to bring him to justice.
