Name: Charlie Sinclair
Hair (length, texture): Dark, silken tresses of a brown bordering on black. When curly, her hair falls in wild tangles to just below her bottom, but when straight it falls nearly to her knees.
Eyes: Gray
Age: Mid-twenties
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Physique: Slim, fit.
Height: 5’8”
Skin tone: Olive.
Particular markings, scars: Multiple tattoos mar her body, two on each arm just below her shoulders and two more along her forearms. Another weaves back and forth over her spine, from the nape of her neck to the tailbone. The tattoos on her forearms are arrows pointing towards her wrists, each arm of the arrow emphasized by a dot. On her right upper arm is a band of intertwining brackets, her left upper arm donning a design to represent the setting sun; only the rays visible. The spinal tattoo is a vine adorned with lethal thorns made to appear wrapped around her spine.
Weapons/Armor (Attire): Charlie has an arsenal at her disposal, but her preferred weapons of choice are her twin whips, each with several tails. The tails each have seven fragments evenly spaced along their lengths, what appears to be beads actually diamonds cut almost perfectly round but for the occasional point.
Weakness/Strengths: Charlie is sharp of mind and tongue, her strengths lying in her compassion, determination, and almost insanely dexterous ability to dance through tense situations without breaking a sweat, whereas others might crumble under the pressure. However, Charlie tends to be distrustful and abrasive, an accomplished liar with an inability to be anything but the one spitting out commands- or working alone.
Family/Companions: None. A runaway, Charlie spent her childhood fending for herself on the streets, mastering the art of theft and other such traits that helped her survive.
Occupation: Warrior/Mercenary
Personality: Extremely critical, Charlie has an intense dislike for anything new, including people. Distrustful and vicious, she prefers the use of vinegar to sugar. Known to be impatient, demanding, and downright mean, she can become ruthless in missions to get what she wants, exactly when and where she wants it. Never one to give up, she prides herself on never having failed no matter the amount of obstacles and delays clogging her path.
History: Alone with a drunkard of a father, Charlie quickly learned to be wary of men. After escaping her destitute home, she slid through the streets and picked up the age-old games of the pick-pockets and baser thieves. As she grew, she began to use her learned abilities to do better, bigger jobs. A quick study, she was always willing to take a little risk, loving the thrill of knowing one small mistake could cost her everything.
In order to avoid being forced into small gangs of other homeless or darkened creatures, Charlie found she could kill easier every time; she had no qualms about killing the other when it was her or them. With saved money she hired a tutor to teach her the basics of combat, and by observation she learned many other things.
When spying on a man so as to learn his routine- she intended to raid his house once she felt secure in her knowledge, she found his whips to have caught her eye. As he worked himself into a sweat with his practicing, she grew enthralled by the dance of the tails, the shimmer of the diamonds when they caught the light and refracted it. Delighted, Charlie took the weaponry as her own.
Although she is extremely skilled at becoming invisible to steal, many find the ability far more useful when murder is on the table instead of precious trinkets. Charlie became nearly anything if the price was right; although she made enough standards for her self to make sure she never fell amongst the filth. Charlie emanates strength and vitality despite her solemn disposition.
