Nera is a young girl, looking to be about fifteen even though she is actually a couple years younger than that. Her face is surprisingly attractive for her age, when she cares to clean herself up, but would generally be smudged and dirty, often with small bits of paint spread in light patterns on one side. Her hair was somewhere between blonde and brown, seeming to change with the seasons between them. Within her wild locks you'd find quite a few bones, stones ,and feathers, braided in and tied with her hair, and falling down her shoulders. One her left arm, she already had her first tattoo, taking the image of an intricate curling vine that hugger her tightly between the wrist and bicep while the small ends trailed onto her hand, fingers, and shoulder. Her other arm had a different form of ornamentation; several tight bracelets and armlets were secured to her wrist, and just above and below her elbow. They had small iron buckles on them, each carved with small patterns, the one on her wrist showing the Helsike emblem.   

She also wore a circlet with the same etching sometimes, but generally would be seen without it, except on special occasions. Her weapons consisted most notably of a 'longbow' and a hand axe. The bow was about as big as it could be for her, and yet not dragging the ground, but it was not one of the most powerful, firing at perhaps forty-five pounds.The axe was a smaller weapon, not meant for battle without a shield. It was around three feet long, with a stone head held to the shaft by tight leather bonds. The tool hung at her belt, which was made of a few thin ropes braided together and then beaten flat with a stone. Most of her clothing was the same, shoddy work, usually being found in something that -looked- old, and worn, but was actually just poorly made.
