[@agentmanatee] Totally coming back to this. And I'm gonna fight to help keep it alive this time! [hider=I changed her up just a little, but it's still Nadia] [center][img]http://cp12.nevsepic.com.ua/63-4/1354651447-0429383-www.nevsepic.com.ua.jpg[/img] [color=ed145b][h2]Nadia Parnel[/h2][/color] [color=ed145b][b]Race:[/b][/color] Gemminite [color=ed145b][b]Age:[/b][/color] 18 [color=ed145b][b]Element:[/b][/color] Fire [color=ed145b][b]Height:[/b][/color] 5'4" [color=ed145b][b]Bio:[/b][/color] Nadia's parents were both Fire Gemminites who lived and raised her in a woodland cottage a little ways away from any towns or cities. They preferred the calm solitude that life in the woods offered as opposed to the busy life of a townsperson, and the relative safety of living like this. Her father worked as a merchant and so was away often, trading around the country, while her mother was a seamstress. Nadia eventually picked up the skills of both her parent's trades, learning how to make deals with people and how to make basically anything needed for the home that could be done with a needle and thread. Nadia grew to be shy and nervous around other people at first, but good-natured enough that she would make friends easily. She didn't spend much time in town, but she was known around as a kind, well-mannered girl. She was taken in a reaping that was happening during a visit into town with her father, when a Drakken who was collecting another girl decided that she was a better catch. [color=ed145b][b]Other:[/b][/color] Though her element is fire, it doesn't seem to reflect in her personality as much as it does others of her element. She is shy and contains her thoughts and emotions very well, she does not call attention to herself on purpose and excels at blending in, at least among Gems. She is kind and gentle towards others, but also very fragile, both mentally and physically- she's afraid to use her power around other people. If someone were to say that Fire Gems are like a campfire or a blazing torch, then Nadia is a lit candle on a calm night.
