((OOC: This is extended information about Kyana that is not in her official bio, but which she will reveal if asked in-game. It is not widely-known information but for those who want a better idea of the character))
------------------------------------------------------------------
Kyana Sturdyfeet was born in the rather uneventful year 1377 in the town of Stock to Brando and Lily Sturdyfeet, she also had an older brother named Booth. Kyana comes from a small family; the Sturdyfeets mostly live in and around the town of Stock, although there are a few family members who live in Overhill and in Buckland. The Sturdyfeet are also closely related to the Proudfoots.
Kyana is very close with her parents, but she was even closer with her brother Booth, when they where young they would always play together and they always protected each other. Booth was a great inspiration for Kyana, and it’s because of him she became so active in the protection of the Shire.
Kyana’s parents are both fishermen, some of the few in the Shire and are quite renowned for their fine and sometimes rare fish. They mainly fish in the Shire and Bree-Land but sometimes make an expedition to Ered-Luin. They are currently on a fishing expedition to lake Evendim. During her childhood Kyana often went along with her parents on their fishing trips and she learned how to fish at a young age. Another thing Kyana learned during those fishing trips was swimming, seeing as how both her parents obviously didn’t want her to drown. Swimming –and fishing- remains one of her most favourite past-times, Kyana can still remember how other Hobbits would shake their head when she would swim in the Brandywine River.
Another pastime Kyana greatly enjoys is smoking, a habit she picked up during her stay in Overhill. She went to Overhill in her early tweens so she could become a woodworker, she wanted to become one after seeing a woodworker sell his wares on the Michel Delving market and being impressed with the detail and craftsmanship. So, Kyana immediately walked up to this woodworker –named Hart Holeman-, introduced herself and asked if she could be his apprentice, to which Hart gladly accepted. It was also during that time that Kyana became acquainted with the creatures she would grow to hate; Goblins.
