'''Name:''' Ria Aikou
'''Age:''' 19
'''Race:''' human
'''Place of Origin:''' the Stacks, Anaxas

!!!'''Backstory:'''
From birth, Ria's parents always thought she was special. Unlike most children, her hair was a dull red colour. They believed she was a blessing from Alioe, so they always made sure she was well fed, and always looked pretty. Ria's mother did not know, but the reason they always had money and food, was because her husband was an experienced thief, as well as working as a barkeeper.

Ria did not have many childhood friends, if at all any, simply due to her being shy, and insecure. The other children hated Ria, they were jealous of her family. Ria's parents were lucky enough to have more than enough coin. Due to the fact Ria did not have many friends, her shyness grew even bigger, and usually ended up in the house or outside hiding in the shadows away from people so they could not call her names.

Ria always wanted to go to school. She wished she was born a galdori, because she was always intrigued by magic, but, being a mere human, could never cast it. She liked the idea of wick magic too, what better for her than to be able to cast a pickpocket spell, or a lockpicking spell. She caught her father trying to steal one day, and asked him how he could do it. She told him about how she thought about it, and wanted to try it, but she was too scared - without magic she believed it was impossible until this moment. Her father taught her basic skills such as improved dexterity in her hands, and how to distract the victim whilst she steals.

Her mother was always the one who looked after Ria. She was the one who made sure that Ria was fed, and looked pretty each day. When her mother, Harmony, dissapeared one day, she thought her father killed her. Ria ran away from home, and went and lived on the streets. She got food by stealing it, and clothes by the same fashion. She did not care about her life very much after Harmony's disappearance, and even chanced her life at stealing a galdor's hairpin.

From her early teens, Ria started to learn the way of the assassin. How to move almost like a shadow - reduced noise when moving, able to quickly hide, climb, and dodge. Ria improved upon these abilities, and deemed herself as a fully-fledged assassin. She started by doing low-risk-low-pay work, earning maybe a hat or a tally if she was lucky. Up until this day she still works as an assassin, collecting tasks from people and fulfilling whatever they want doing.

!!!'''Personality:'''
Ria took an intensely neutral stance when it came to the yinyang side of life. Balancing her attitudes between strangers and friends; with friends, she takes a deep liking to them, and is very calm and friendly.
Around strangers and people she doesn't trust, however, her attitude changes. She isn't neccessarily evil, per say, just... reserved.

Ria is never seen without money. Being one of her many desires, she always finds a way to obtain some, usually through illegit means, almost as if it makes her feel important, seperating her from the usual low-life, poor humans of the Stacks.

She was regarded as an outcast from a young age due to her hair colour, red, she has never truly been close to any males in her life. As such, she has never known true love, even as a young woman, and has grown to fear it. She fears it as a new sensation, as something she isn't familiar with.

Should you happen to chance upon Ria in the street, she would be one to strike a memory in the back of your mind, as you recall her dull red hair and her sweet, soft voice.

Ria visits Stolley's Tavern pretty much daily to order her regular, Starfly. Should you buy her a drink, make sure you buy her a Starfly, or she will kindly pass on your offer.

!!!'''Description:'''
Ria, aged 19, is quite the attractive young woman. Her chest size may not be the biggest in Anaxas, but what she lacks in chest size, her sweet, soft rosy red face and big, black eyes more than makes up for it. She stands at just over 5 and a half feet, accompanied by her thin figure, makes her the perfect candidate for sneaking around and climbing into small spaces.

Her hair is well kept; a golden hairpin which she had previously stolen off a galdor keeps her dull red hair in place. Her hair is not particularly thick, but if she unties her hair, it would go to about elbows length.

She never had friends in her childhood to go out and play games with, and so never collected any scars like all the other kids. She has not been an assassin long either, so she has never been scarred whilst completing a task.

!!!'''Inventory:'''
*Small, brown pouch filled with coins
*Small sack for concealing stolen items
*Small-sized water skin

!!!'''Clothing:'''
*Golden hairpin, in the shape of a crescent moon
*Black blouse, exposing her chest
*Black knee-length pants


!!!'''Weapons'''
*Iron shortsword
*Throwing knives, concealed in a small pouch on the right of her waist
*Golden hairpin, used as a throwing star

!!!'''Pets:'''
A Whice, named Kasuka, female.

!!!'''Career:'''
Assassin for hire/thief:
*Reduced footstep noise
*Accuracy with ranged weapons
*Good dexterity in her hands
*Keen eyesight
*Able to freerun with ease
*Excellent Speechcrafting skills

!!!'''Goals:'''
*Obtain a large sum of money
*Find out who kidnapped her mother, Harmony, and instigate why
*Find and face what true love is and what it feels like
*Get a better career than an assassin

Hi Ria! this is a good character sheet, I like her story and her motivation. You were very thorough, which is great.

There are only two problems I see. One, you can't have red eyes, because those don't exist (except in rare cases of albinism). Two, I'm not sure why red hair would make her a social outcast. it's a bit uncommon among humans, but certainly not cursed or anything. There should be a better reason for her being socially ostracized.

I can approve if you'd tweak your sheet to account for those things. :)
