Clothes Style: Dethalia usually wears tight clothing/armour for fighting and moving quickly. She is almost never seen wearing a dress, and if she is found wearing one it is a very rare occasion.
Appearance: Dethalia is in her early twenties, a slender yet well build girl, standing at around 5 foot 3, her red hair dramatically contrasts to her pale skin tone and her icy blue eyes stand out like lanterns in pitch black darkness. Her skin is blemish free other than her back which is riddled in scars. She has red lips which beautifully stand out from her pale skin. Dethalia has a tendency to give others unnerving, cold stares for long periods of time, seemingly studying them. This is due to her inability to trust because of her past.
Religion: She is not spiritual and does not care for any religion.
Political Views: She has a poor view on nobility and does not care for the law.
Education: Dethalia had no formal education. Her reading and writing skills are poor as she was sold at a young age, however she is more comfortable speaking Rohirric, her native tongue. She also picked up some Sindarin from the people she grew up around.
Languages spoken: Westron, Rohirric and a little Sindarin. Her Sindarin is by no means fluent.
Occupation(s): She used to be a slave if you can call that an occupation, however she now serves under The Bloody Dawn.
Weapons (if any): She can usually be seen carrying her great sword on her back or sheathed in her hand (depending on the state of her back). She also carries an array of throwing daggers which she can throw with deadly accuracy.
Special Abilities/Skills: Dethalia is very quiet and light on her feet. She is flexible with acrobatic/gymnastic skills that allow her to dodge easily. She usually waits and listens, and prefers to wait and stay silent than to jump into something, be it a fight or a conversation, due to this she is good at telling when people are lying to her.
Serious Problems/Flaws/Addictions/Disorders/Disabilities: She has serious trust issues and finds it hard to find friends, down to her being sold as a slave she has had no real friends or relationships so does not know how to interact correctly with others. She has a quick temper when it comes to slavers or self righteous nobles. The skin on her back is also damaged with severe scaring, some of the recent scaring sometimes re-opens so she cannot fight as well as if she was in a healthy condition.

Background
Born in the capital of Rohan, Edoras, she learnt the Rohirric tongue first. Her mother died giving birth to Dethalia and her father, blaming Dethalia for her mother's death sold her to passing slavers when she was 5. Before the age of five she roamed the streets, stealing what she needed to survive, helped by other thieves.
Once sold to the slaves, Dethalia learnt quickly that failure was not an option and was met with harsh punishment. She learnt the ways of the sword and dagger from a fellow slave, however she has not seen him in years and presumes him dead.
While with the slavers, Dethalia learnt that trust was a thing that didn't exist. She watched as they stabbed each other in the back and many times did they promise her freedom but only gave her pain and suffering.
One night, while the slavers were busy drinking and spending time with women, Dethalia, at the age of 18, escaped and served in a Rohirric militia, spending three years there, she still found no companionship, her fellows wary of her gaze and cold nature. At the age of 21, her past caught up with her and she was forced back into servitude, her punishment fierce.
Whilst in servitude, she was forced to entertain, mostly with acrobatics. This is now to her advantage as she is flexible in battle. The slavers spoke in many tongues so that they could sell around Middle-Earth, so she picked up some Sindarin, however is not fluent.
Two years went by and she escaped whilst near Bree, doing a few mercenary jobs saved her enough money for better armour. Whilst in Bree, Dethalia met Essas, a man willing to help rid her of her slave problems, however the price will be high, the slavers planning to sell Dethalia on, untouched by any man.
The Bloody Dawn
Whilst in Bree, she spotted a poster advertising The Bloody Dawn, she soon met up with Falarthin in the Prancing Pony and was accepted into the Dawn. She wishes to find friends, however hard as she does not trust easily and her icy glare and cold personality puts a lot of people off. She hopes to find her place in the Dawn, moving on from her past experiences, serving the Dawn completely and without failure. Freedom being her motivation.
