Name
Sarah Smith
Race
Human
Age
17
Personality
She is kindhearted, Generous, and Modest. Despite her actions, she isn't naive. Her weaknesses are more along her lack of experience above all else.
She likes to eat. While she doesn't actively pig out, given the chance she could. Sarah will be very aware of missed meals. This trait caused her the occasional issue while traveling on her own.
She hates alcohol. The smell, the taste, those who gorge themselves on it.
She is terrified of oversleeping. It sounds silly but she can sleep pretty heavily and she is afraid of not waking up in time to save her family. Sleeping curses and spells are her worst nightmare.
Sarah's driving goal is to save her family and town from an evil wizard. Even though success seems unlikely, remembering what she was fighting for has often given her the strength to continue on.
Backstory
The daughter of an old Ballion Guardsman turned Smith, Sarah grew up in the small town of Levital on the southern Ballion/Conran border. While their taxes were Ballion, they traded and worked with Conrans the most. Sarah had a pretty easy life growing up. She helped out on farms and learned that people needed to work together in order to do something great. Sarah finds joy in making the lives of others better. She used to play sword fight with other kids in her town. One time she got hurt pretty bad, and while she was yelled at by her mother, her father stepped in and taught her some real moves, though nothing serious.
In the year of 920, a dark wizard came to town. At first he seemed like a kind and helpful man, but after just a month it was discovered he was experimenting on people in the town. Once word got out, he started capturing as many people as he could. When Sarah's family was endangered, she felt she had to do something and stood up to the Wizard. Of course she hadn't been the first but something about her made the Wizard pause in his actions. He decided to give her a near impossible task, and told her she would have three winters to finish it. Sarah took on her father's sword and left her town in a hurry, not thinking about the details of what he asked her to do. And that's how her journey began.
Sarah is a mercenary of sorts. She has traveled for a year to get to the Conran Capital City. Here she found what she needed, and was getting ready to head back to her village as the second winter since her quest started was setting in. She was used to the cold, so she didn't plan on it slowing her down. 1 Year was left on her time limit.
Current Events
Sarah is doing work for the outlying villages of Conran's capital. She is trying to find a group to travel south with. With ice creeping up from the southern plains, she figured food would be scarce and having a group would help the time pass a little quicker. The odd jobs she was doing was also to help people prepare for the coming cold and helping others fortify their homes after the recent assassination of the Queen.

Brief Backstory
Born within Conra Castle, Christopher was raised as a Prince from the beginning, even though the servants knew very well that he was not the King's son and that the Queen had an affair. He was taught and trained like any respectable member of Royalty. He was trained in the ways of fencing and learned to shoot a bow and was even checked for magical talent. At a young age, he exhibited excellent prowess with archery and with Kinetic magic. At age 14 he went on his first hunt with the captain of the guard who often treated him like a son. Christopher didn't know his real father but he wondered if the captain was him.
When he turned 18, he was offered to join the Guardsmen. After 4 years, Chris was a captain in his own right. He would refuse the leading position however. He was growing apart from life in the palace. He spent more time with wall guards and with the rise in refugees in the last couple years he helped build housing for them. He hadn't seen any monsters close to the city, but bandits and highwaymen have been increasing in numbers. He has been working together with guardsmen and mercenaries to ensure safety of the refugees. All until one day, his little brother, the Crown Prince himself, came to find him.
With the news that his mother, the Queen, was found dead by no other than his little brother, Chris started investigating all he could. Interviewing guard after guard, trying to figure out how it happened. Who could have done it. A week after the assassination, a fortune teller got a hold of him and told him of a Dark Wizard that was the source of the Queen's undoing. He packed a travel kit and told his brother to take care. Christopher swore he would avenge his mother at any cost.

Skills
