Luckily, as long as she was ladylike when company was over, her parents were not picky about her desire to explore, hunt, and learn falconry. In fact, it gave her father something to do in his free time as she was their only child. So, while it was all dresses, corsets, and curtsies at the parties, it all became trousers, tunics, bows, birds, and guns whenever she could slip away. With her two contrasting habits, her father and mother decided to get her tutors for all subjects. their reasoning was that she needed to be prepared for anything given her habits. Lucretia didn't complain about the extra work as it gave her the skills and knowledge to keep her own possessions in good shape as well as knowledge of academic areas she would have been denied otherwise. It also made her already impressive literacy better. Due to her capabilities, studies were easy for her to excel within while still offering her chances to keep honing her survival, hunting, and falconry skills. Once she became an adult, Lucretia was up for marriage. Suitors came and saw the prim and proper side of her, but she never kept them from understanding her real personality. As such, they all tended to lose interest. Political marriage was not on her parents' minds as they were sitting comfortably in their status. As the suitors dwindled, Lucretia convinced her parents to let her leave and become and explorer on the condition that she write back as able to keep them privy of her adventures and to show she was still alive. She agreed immediately and gathered the supplies she needed. From that day, she wandered around, discovering relics, crumbling ruins, odd creatures, and found exotic locales. Until a few years ago, she stuck to the mainland, going to places others feared to tread due to superstitious reasons. Now, she ran out of rumors to explore in the area she operates within and looks for something past the coast. For a few years, Lucretia worked on merchant vessels or on exploratory ships. The dangers of the sea became well known to her, so once she felt experienced enough, Lucretia decided to set out to start or join a crew seeking to move deeper into the sea and find anything interesting. -Classification: Trapper (mix of Explorer and Head Hunter) -Specialization: Cook, Animal Handler, Fisher/Hunter -Other: She keeps an osprey as a pet and is an accomplished falconer.
