The body of a dancer, elegant lengthy limbs that hold a surprising amount of strength and flexibility for swift precise movements. She has a feminine curve to her body, one that has been learned to be hidden by wearing certain clothes and wraps which helps hide other female qualities that would give away secrets. Aruna stands at the height of 5’10, a pixie/boyish cut of dark chocolate hair, bangs slightly framing even darker eyes that grace the soft features of her face. A dusting of freckles that dapple across the bridge of her nose, cheeks and the curve of her shoulders over caramel colored skin . Normally, it would get her made fun of as a man if she didn’t let her swords or small blades do the talking. There were many a time this was the case, until they learned to keep their mouths shut.

It is do to the hiding of her true body frame that most think she is a rather scrawny and weak man, an easy target. It is their downfall to find that she is an elite warrior. One that should be feared and would make her people proud. Her elegant  and swift movements on the battle field look as if to be a dance. She is not perfect though and has had many a scar. The worst ones in areas that could not be attended to be real physicians/healers, such like her back and other areas. She doesn’t mind though, she views them as an honor.

They say there is two sides to every coin and the same could be said about Aruna in many ways. She is a bit of a contradictory creature as she can be gentle and soft one moment while harsh and rough the next. She has a fiery temper, one that flares up and causes her a good amount of trouble if she doesn’t bite her tongue to rein it in. She calls it passionate but most call it trouble. 

She is kind and giving, one that would take a blow for another or offer anything to help someone else out. Fighting wasn’t something she had truly wanted, peace being much more pleasant but if she was going to learn something, she was going to give it her all. Once she sets her mind to something and is determined, it is hard to keep her away from doing her all. She puts her heart into everything she does. Pain is a part of life. How do you know how to live or the happy moments without it? 

She has hopes and dreams but with things how they are right now for her, it might be impossible. It is these kinds of things that keep her guarded and on her toes. She may have people close to her but even they would probably feel like she keeps them at a distance. She has to keep up appearances and it gets harder the closer you get to people and let them in.

Aruna was born in Baldori but as far as she knows, she could actually be a part of any other clan or region, well....at least the ones allied with Thelannians. It would be hard to imagine any other being able to be her father but the world was strange. Her mother worked in a brothel and her creation was just an unlucky circumstance. She was mostly kept hidden in her younger years, told to keep out of the way so the both of them could be feed and taken care of. Customers don’t want to see you caring for an infant or toddler after all. The more she grew, the prettier she became but her mother didn’t want her to share the same life she had. 

It was at the age of 5 that her mother changed her clothes to that of a boy, even calling her by a masculine version of her given name. It became normal for her not to question it. She was just as religious as any other but in all honesty, she didn’t want to devote her life to it. The tending of the fields wasn’t a bad option, the things you could learn were interesting but....did she want to do that forever? No...not really. It seemed like the gods were designed to step in because at the age of 10, her mother passed away and at the same time was a call for more boys for the war front. It seemed logical for them to pick an orphanage to join and she was placed with the other candidates. 

Trained in the art of battle and thrown out to defend. She found the new role she had been placed in as thrilling. It gave her purpose and a way to show that she could be just as good as the others. There was nothing else for her. She grew, learning to rely on herself and to watch the back of her fellow soldiers. She was given the name Blade Dancer because of her skill on the field. When she got word that the Queen Anice had disappeared. She had made sure she would be in the group that would attempt to find her. She had great respect for the woman and it seemed like destiny was calling for her to follow this path.

- To the world and everyone she knows, she is viewed as a male. That means cross-dressing and acting are a necessary.
- When she is not at the front lines, she is in the place of her birth to defend the royal family and protect the palace.
- Loves the rain & snow
- Night is her favorite portion of the day
- Has a beautiful singing voice but never shows it. It might give away her secret. 
- Carries a Journal to draw in and create maps of where she has been. Sometimes she will write her thoughts
- Loves a good red wine
