.:Physical Appearance:.
Flavia is a thin girl of medium height, with pale skin, light blonde hair and green eyes.

As a typical poor peasant faded, cheap clothes, mainly grey in colour make up her wardrobe; however, her favourite outfit is a beautiful, expensive dark blue dress which she inherited from her grandmother who was the mother of Tristan of Stormhold. Flavia was supposed to inherit her claim to the throne when her father died, however due the fact that her cunning older brother, Septimus, was the male heir to the throne she lost everything leaving her nothing more than a poor peasant. She wears a gold necklace with a ruby which her mother gave to her before her death ten years ago which apparently, according to her father, has weak magical properties.

To compliment her no-money collection of clothes, Flavia has a poorly cut hair style. Done only to vanquish split ends on the quick and cheap side by anyone willing to do it, it covers her forehead and cascades down her back. She has striking emerald green eyes framed by long, dark lashes. She has small feet, which have her tripping over constantly. She blames her clumsiness on her awkward start in life and its consequences.

Whilst these traits may be deceiving, Flavia has some strength in the form of her ability to adapt and empathise with any situation. Years of helping the local women with the varied duties in Ealdor has assisted her in developing the capability to perform any menial task required of a servant.

Personality Overview:

Flavia is kind-hearted to all those she thinks deserves it, she has a smile and kind word for anyone. Having been bullied by other kids in the village for a while, she herself despises all those who pick on others.

Her good natured heart can get her in trouble though. She's not one to think things through; she simply does what she thinks is right, whatever the consequences.

Using magic, learned from a spell book, is used so often that she does not always think about the consequence of using it. Seeing someone in need has her desperate to help them; mainly she’ll do this via her learned magic. She's learning slowly when and when not to use it. She sees magic as a game, it's fun.

Flavia is fiercely protective of her friends, family and those like her. She will do anything for them. She too believes in Merlin’s view that he has seen the sort of man Arthur can be, he knows that one day he'll live up to his destiny and see the prat made King.

.:History:.
Flavia was born a princess into the royal family of the Kingdom of Stormhold; accessed through a wall on the outskirts of Camelot.

She had a privileged childhood, being royalty; filled with beautiful dresses, horses, servants and all the things that she could desire. Her ability to use magic was seem by her family and their kingdom as a rare gift that made her special and for which she was able to use her gifts openly throughout her childhood.

As the princess grew up, so did her confidence. When once he'd happily play alone, with animals, or read books. Flavia desired real friends to talk to. One day when she was 11, she went up to a small dark haired girl, and they soon became firm friends; Miriam earning the position of Flavia’s maid servant when she turned 14. Yet her brother, Septimus was ruthless in his taunting, as all brothers are. He laughed at her preference to wear pale coloured clothes in spite of her lavish dresses, and the way she tripped over things constantly. Septimus and his accomplices picked on her whenever they could, she'd simply run to her room crying. But as she grew older, she punished them. Making them fall over or arranging for more skilful swordsmen to vanish them in fights.

It was about that time that Miriam met Lupus. Lupus’ father worked in the village docks constantly travelling to far off lands, leaving Lupus to fend for himself as his mother had died a few years before and because of this he'd become quite reserved. He didn't like many people but Miriam, Flavia and Lupus got on well. They soon became inseparable and shared their secrets. Flavia told her friends of Septimus’ taunting when she was 12 . They hatched a revenge plan which went successfully and Septimus never taunted Flavia again, until the fateful day of Tristan’s death. When Lupus’ father died at sea soon after this revenge trick, he moved in Miriam and her mother until he was ready to live home alone, though often returning when he was bored, lonely or hungry.
All this changed with the death of her parents and Septimus’ ascent to the throne. Refusing to marry the King of a far of realm as she is a firm believer in love, Septimus saw her as worthless, stripping her of her status and banishing her from the kingdom, never to return.

Wandering through the towns, cities and countryside she came across Camelot; and decided to make her home there.
