| Outward Appearance |
Sosie is a young dwarf woman with a mane of fiery red hair and a short, neatly-kept beard that despite not being very long, is well-groomed. She usually has numerous braids in her hair, which falls almost all the way down to her feet. Descended from the clan of the Firebeards, Sosie's appearance gives it away almost immediately.
She is a firecracker personified. Sosie's temper is short and quick to explode, and she's always on the edge of her seat, ready to jump into a fray. She's quick-witted and clever, able to think quickly on her feet, and act accordingly. She's still a very young dwarf, she's hardly over the age of 100 and can be considered immature by some, brash and confrontational to others, and bold and brave to her friends. |

Background
Sosie comes from a long line of wealthy and proud Firebeard dwarves in the Blue Mountains. She was the third and only daughter of her parents, following her twin brothers years after they were born. She found her love of baking fairly early on in her life, learning how to knead bread, and mix cakes at her mother's hip. What was a fun hobby turned into Sosie's main passion in life and she went on to open a small bakery, taking a few of her young cousins underneath her wing, and teaching them everything she knew. She also grew up very fond of books and reading.
She wasn't a gentle or calm daughter as her parents hoped for their last born. She was wild from the start, hair a tangled mess of fire, always dirty and fighting with dwarves far bigger than her. Her parents had hoped that Sosie's nature would calm with age, but she only seemed to grow even wilder. She was given the name Firebrand by her family when she was still very young and she seemed just as untamed as the wildfires she was named for.
Still fairly young, far too young to do so, Sosie formed a relationship with another dwarf in Thorin's Hall. They were completely smitten, head over heels and her parents did not approve. When rumors swept their family and their high society circles, her parents strongly encouraged Sosie to leave Thorin's Hall. Devasted and heart-broken, Sosie was disguised as a young male dwarf and she left the city, trudging into Ered Luin with only her pack and a pouch of coins her father sent with her.
She traveled to Erebor under the disguise of a young dwarven male named Skí. She lingered in the Lonely Mountain where she had Longbeard cousins, but even still, Sosie never felt comfortable, and a lone dwarven woman who seemed to be exiled from her home didn't make her feel any more welcome. She left again, assuming the same disguise she had used when was traveling before. While Sosie had intended on returning to Thorin's Hall, she found herself in Bree instead, not yet willing to make the trek back home.
