Shepherds of Haven Recruit Form - Blythe Valendil
“A female Mage with scarred brown skin, chest-length tousled golden hair, attractive golden eyes, and a lean, athletic build. She sports a small tattoo on the inside of her wrist as a result of her Ket heritage. Her cloak sports a moon and stars clasp"
Biographical Info
Name, Nicknames: Blythe Valendil, Captain, “Sunshine” to Chase, simply known as B or Bly to many close to her. 
Height: 5’10” or 179.5
Alias: Lyra Thornheart 
Callsign: Foolsgold
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Pan
Pronouns: She/Her
Birthday and Age: 7 Coppersun (28)
Background Info
Weapon: Sword
Magic Specialization: Duelki
Racial Heritage, Birthplace: Ket of Drummond’s Point
Education: Circle-trained
Miscellaneous Info
Past Jobs: Traveled with a group for about a year and did odd-jobs with them for a while. That… ended. She then worked some more odd-jobs in one town for a while for many reasons without moving on. She’s been a ‘van guard for a handful of years since and has a very bard-esque way of weaseling stories from people and spinning others in return. 
Likes: Chase. Honestly enjoys learning; started out as a necessity after what happened with her family, but now she finds an odd comfort in it. There is a reason her and Red were always so close: hot nerds. Foods with strong flavor have her whole heart. Be it sweet, smoky, spicy, she doesn’t really have a preference as long as it’s strong.
Dislikes: Being pushed into the spotlight instead of choosing; makes her feel like a puppet for someone else and in her opinion she’s done that enough. Cannot stand steamed vegetables; they feel wrong just put them in a soup or something if you only want them steamed. Being abandoned. Oop nevermind all that!
Strengths: Knows how to play to her strengths in a situation; might even avoid confrontation if need be. For example, she knows she’s hot, she's gonna use that to her advantage. Will play people like a cheap kazoo. You are not immune. She is still very kindhearted though, don’t get it twisted.
Weaknesses: Terribly Touch Starved; she craves all physical affection like hand holding, claps on the back, shoulder touches, etc. sometimes to the point where she might allow someone… undesired to remain around/influence her if they fulfill this. 
Hobbies/Special Skills: She has a performance-grade voice, a secret skill she saves for rainy days.  
Guardian Animal/Daemon: Chaotic but in the best way; she’s a Ferret. 
Major Arcana: Wheel of Fortune
DnD Morality Alignment: Chaotic Good 
Meyers-Briggs Personality Type: Campaigner ENFP-A

Relationships
Best Friend(s): 
Trouble Alder - she loves a good “golden retriever” type of guy and Trouble really fulfills that. Their relationship can be boiled down to Trouble suggesting they do something dumb and likely dangerous and Blythe going “Oh, this could be funny” and agreeing to his plan. 
Blade Bronwyn - Blythe is a nerd by definition and she likes that Blade is willing to share Ket stories with her. Her father may have been Ket, but he didn't raise her the way he'd been raised. Blade fills in some gaps about Ket history and Blythe finds him comforting; the commander’s awkward social demeanor sometimes reminds her of her own father and that's kinda nice. Besides, its nice to have a friend who will practice sword fighting with you. They do have friendly competitions sometimes, and the other Shepherds grow to expect them after so long.
Ayla Aescar - Twinsies! No, seriously, they look very similar, though Blythe finds it much more amusing than Ayla. Blythe tends to be more relaxed than Ayla, especially in social settings, but they tend to balance each other because of this. Despite their difference in demeanor, the two of them find solace in hanging out without having to do anything. They are the friends who could sit in silence and be content with the arrangement; Blythe does one thing while Ayla does another. It works, not to mention the trust they build because of it.
Red Antiqua - “Woman Runs into Ex-Boyfriend After 10 Years and Now They Are Nerdy Best Friends with Stories to Tell”. He rambles and she is reacting like an extra on a sitcom. Does bring up embarrassing stuff that she remembers from the time they dated just to watch Red flounder. Pan and her then share a high five while Neon attempts to hide a laugh. Ten years but nothing has changed.
Preferred Mission Partner(s): Blade Bronwyn, Halek Prince, Tallys Ironwood
Friendly Rival(s): Her and Blade can be very much “anything you can do I can do better” and everyone just expects it after a certain point.
Love Interest(s):
Chase Trinaeste - Blythe falls for Chase hook, line, and sinker the second she talks to him for the first time. She plays off the initial attraction and doesn’t want it to move past a casual thing, mostly because of past experience that has tainted her outlook on romance a bit. Nevertheless, her attraction goes from simple to complex very fast, the more complex emotions having begun during their visit to the Circle. She initially thought he was, for lack of better terms, hot and good with words, which is just her type. Now he is so much more, from his subtle jealousy over her and her ex reconnecting to the way his eyes light up when she stops banting and starts being genuine with him. As much as she loves getting reactions from him through playful, flirty banter, she starts naturally wanting to be genuine, and that is unexpected on her part. Blythe is one to “leave before you get left” but she already knows she can’t do that here and it legitimately scares her how strongly she cares for Chase. 
Ship Name(s): Goldrush (I couldn’t squish their names together in a way I liked but this is actually really cute I love that for them)
First Kiss Scenario: Your first kiss with Chase is against the bookshelves in the library. (Nerd Blythe agreed to teach him to read and this is exactly the kind of payment she is a-okay with. Chase, buddy, I’m so sorry but she’s touch starved, if you extend the invitation she will have no choice but to accept it like a life-line.)
Enemies: I asked and she said “You think I remember everyone I’ve clashed with? I actually liked most of them in the end so our rivalries are one sided if they held a grudge. Except that meat man asshole, fuck that guy.” Also her crappy ex business partner/lover, but she doesn’t talk about him so we will pretend we did not read that.
Reference Quote from Last Employer or Other Recruits:
“Smart girl. Originally had her straighten out my expense books in exchange for her living in my inn and she was good at it. But her pipes? Unmatched. Easily the best musical guest I’ve ever had perform here.”
“She was certainly lively for a caravan guard but she knew her way around a sword well. Told some of the best stories, everyone seemed to really like her. Life of the party, that one.”
“What, Sunshine? Oh she’s tons of fun to have around, and the Shepherds are better off for it! She acts really ordinary but don’t buy it, she’s too smart for her own good. By the time you catch on to how intuitive she actually is you’ve probably already lost to her in some way!”
“Lost to her? You speaking from experience, Trinaeste?” “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Shepherds of Haven Recruit Form - Daenym Wildegarde
“A female Mage with freckled, honeyed skin, waist-length curly autumn-colored hair, playful pale eyes, a slight gap between her front teeth, and a strong, curvy build. She has faintly pointed ears as a result of her Elvish heritage. Her cloak sports a gold leaf clasp.”
Biographical Info
Name, Nicknames: Daenym Wildegarde, Captain, Dae or Nym to some
Height: 5’3” or 160.3 cm
Alias: Circe Harpe
Callsign: Suncatcher
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Pronouns: She/Her
Birthday and Age: 17 Loa (28)
Background Info
Weapon: Daggers
Magic Specialization: Aetherai
Racial Heritage, Birthplace: Elf of Vale
Education: Circle-trained
Miscellaneous Info
Past Jobs: She’s been a guard for caravans ever since leaving the circle, but has taken small jobs in-between ‘vans for a bit extra. Once helped an elderly man sort out his garden for a couple of weeks and it was the highlight of her year.
Likes: Plants - she most certainly speaks to plants like they are people; may sing to them if she feels like it. Dancing; she’s good at it! Loves all of her friends so much they are her family hands down, though she might like Blade a bit differently than the others.
Dislikes: Crowded places tend to overwhelm, but she hides her discomfort well if necessary. Regardless of this, she is still very good with people. Dislikes melons of any kind, they feel weird to eat.
Strengths: Diplomacy, Problem Solving, Born Leader (doesn’t know it), Unexpected: seems “too kind” and oblivious but she has a lot of fire and passion about standing up for people.
Weaknesses: Social Scenarios (especially ones she isn’t familiar with). She is a very openly emotional person, so having to be a “stoic soldier” is not something she can do, which can make people doubt her abilities. Also can and will be stubborn to a fault.
Hobbies/Special Skills: She is a very talented embroiderer and you can usually see her work on her casual clothes. She is also very talented at hairstyling, especially braiding, mostly because she has so much hair herself.
Guardian Animal/Daemon: Far too curious for her own good; think Red Panda.
Major Arcana: The Hermit
DnD Morality Alignment: Neutral Good
Meyers-Briggs Personality Type: Protagonist ENFJ-A

Relationships
Best Friend(s):
Trouble Alder - They can be very similar to each other sometimes. Daenym’s lack of certain social knowledge can cause her to seem oblivious while Trouble is literally the definition of a himbo. She is usually acting as his voice or reason if one is needed but she would never step on his toes and always lets him make his own decisions.
Chase Trinaeste - Daenym is curious by nature and Chase finds her interesting. At first it was kind of funny, maybe even a little cute, and now he finds it very endearing in only a way that Chase could. Their relationship is her going “can I try” and him saying “yes absolutely” because he finds it funny how she always manages to do well when it’s her first time trying something. She’s also crazy nice to him so if anything were to happen to her it would likely sting a lot more than he wants it to.
Tallys Ironwood - Daenym usually greets Tallys in a traditionally Elvish way, not only for Tallys but because Daenym herself misses doing that with her family. They can have a bit of a competitive streak with each other but they enjoy the presence of someone who understands them. Also they have been known to just disappear into wooded areas for a while just to talk about their shared interests; mainly animals and plants. Every day, Tallys is amazed at the new form of braid Daenym does to her hair, which often leads to a conversation where Daenym begs to put a small braid in her friend’s short hair. Eventually Tallys may let her but she's going to make Daenym promise to keep it simple if she ever does agree.
Red Antiqua - It has been 10 years since Daenym last saw Red and yet their relationship is just as full of trust as before. Naturally, her ability to be stubborn and challenge authority that she doesn't agree with still makes Red want to evaporate due to stress, but he finds it very Daenym of her to apologize for causing him discomfort but not for putting herself in a sticky situation. Red understands what he found attractive in her all those years ago just as Daenym does with him, but they are both oddly happy they didn't stay together. Them splitting up allowed them to reconnect and help each other, and they agree the time apart has made their friendship stronger. Daenym trusts Red with her life and vise versa. The two of them, Neon, and Pan make up their old friend group, and the dynamic really hasn't changed in Daenym's 10 year absence.
Preferred Mission Partner(s): Red Antiqua, Briony Stormbreaker, Ayla Aescar
Friendly Rival(s): Her and Tallys have moments where they disappear into the woods for a while under the guise of seeing “who can do X the quickest/most efficiently” but that's just how they spend time with each other. Elves.
Love Interest(s):
Blade Bronwyn - Blade was not someone Daenym ever expected, but in her natural desire to befriend her new coworkers, she met up with him on her first day off. When he’d asked why she wanted to spend time with him, she was shocked to find that she didn’t have an answer; she just wanted to be near him because it felt right. Ever since then, Daenym has been pretty obvious with her affection but she keeps it subtle out of fear that she’ll make Blade uncomfortable. She adores everything he does. From his awkward coughs to the focused face he makes during meetings, she gradually gets to where sometimes the smallest things make her smile at him, which only confuses poor Blade. Yes, she is so oblivious she has no idea her affections are returned. Yes it is a headache for the other Shepherds. Send help.
Ship Name(s): Daeblade (like Beyblade but off-brand lmao)
First Kiss Scenario: Your first kiss with Blade happens as an orchestrated effort on the behalf of the other Shepherds, who were sick to death of watching you two dance around the issue. (Oh Hael, that's canon. Haha, just kidding… unless?)
Enemies: When I asked she gave me a very “wounded puppy” look because the last thing Daenym wants to do is inconvenience others. Though she doesn’t really like any of the soldiers around Haven who act entitled and mean to the citizens or her Shepherd family. “They are very rude and I would like to talk with them about it. Do you think we could come to an agreement? I’ll take on any challenges they have!”
Reference Quote from Last Employer or Other Recruits:
“The dear once filled shifts at my inn once! Real talent with people, that one, and for baking. I’ve never had pastries that good before, she actually had to teach me how to make them before she left!”
“I thought she seemed a bit doe-eyed for ‘van security but gotta say she didn’t disappoint. Real passionate about keepin’ people safe and cared for.”
“She is a very strong addition to the Shepherds, and her diplomatic skill will no doubt continue to work in our favor. She’s also very… strong... physically… and is quickly growing with her combat training.”
“Are you okay Blade? You’re coughing a lot and your face is pretty re-”
“I’m. Fine.”
