.:Physical Appearance:.

standing at a little bit over five four, evangeline is well built, heavyset and equip with lean muscles. being so small, she’s fast and agile. at the same time, she holds much more strength than people give her credit to. however, being a teenage girl, her curves are easily seen, especially due to the fact that she’s starving almost all the time. upon her head is a dirty mop of curly dark brown hair that falls just below her shoulders. she had lightly tanned skin and large, dark brown eyes to match.

eva’s usual attire would be a multitude of ripped, torn or worn clothing that she has either found or stolen. from time to time she would make her own clothing and sow together bits and pieces of old cloth or even potato sacks. fur is never an option. she hates the thought of wearing anything from an animal except for probably leather. she’s never really owned anything too fabulous except for a few pieces of stolen jewelry or charms. however, she does own a necklace given to her by her mother many years ago. evangeline also owns a leather belt that is tightly wound above her hips that holds her little dagger and some money. she also has a light brown satchel that is swung over her shoulder, carrying some personal belongings and food.

.:Personality:.

angie is anything but a proper little princess which is probably why she’s out begging on the streets instead of running a kingdom. rude, mean and sarcastic would be three words that could easily describe her personality. even in front of royalty, evangeline’s vulgar sense of humor never fails to come out. arrogant and somewhat fool hearted, angie holds a big head upon her shoulders. she’s unafraid to speak out and even make fun of the king or queen. this often gets her in trouble, but being the easy going type, evangeline eventually works herself out of it. all she wants to do is live and have some fun. she never means real harm, but her actions usual lead her into a bit of a sticky predicament. however, her personality is only fueled by her slight resentment in the royal family. back when she was a servant girl in the kingdom, she was treated horribly. she hated the fact that women had to scrub floors while men were out fighting. maybe it was just jealousy of her brother.

however, evangeline does have a sweeter side. she’s funny and outgoing and just an all around amusing person to hang around. daring and bold, she speaks her opinions and would much rather be hanging off the side of a cliff, running away from a bunch of knights, than be safe and sound on the ground begging for some food. although she does steal to eat herself, she never fails to think about the poor that were poorer than her. she willingly gives up her meal for young children for she is very sympathetic. angie also has a soft side for the elderly and the young. she just cant walk by an old woman without helping her along or let a child cry over a broken toy. she would try her best fix it and due to her upbeat and never say never attitude, she would either fix it or come up with a different game for the child- or maybe even steal another toy if she had to.

angie had this habit of placing the blame on herself. whether it be for stealing something or punching someone. if someone she cared for got in trouble, she would take the blame and get the person out of it. this often leads to more trouble and bruises on her back. however, it shows that evangeline is quite loyal, but only to those who she cares about. she doesn’t trust easily nor does she get close to anyone she doesn’t know. however, angie is open to new ideas and loves messing with strangers. she doesn’t mind just walking up to someone and introducing herself though some people might find it strange.

.:Strengths:.

• clever evangeline can get herself out of almost any situation
  
• flexible and strong being a thief, she can work her way into any building and climb herself into any window. she can pull herself up along any wall and climb any tree.
  
• excellent with a dagger she has to protect herself somehow and why not with knives and daggers when a sword is completely out of the question.
  
• caring she cares for others and shows compassion toward the poor. thus, many children adore her
  
• fearless she can stare danger in the eye without even blinking

.:Weaknesses:.

• arrogant she often thinks she’s better than she really is, even though she’s just a lowly peasant.
  
• bold/rude she often has a big mouth and is not afraid to use it.
  
• short-tempered things can easily get to her especially when she doesn’t get what she wants.
  
• hates feeling weak if anyone ever called her pathetic or fragile, she’d snap at them in an instant.
  
• stubborn angie gets what she wants but when she doesn’t, things could turn ugly.

.:Magic Abilities:.

evangeline would rather not touch or have anything to do with magic, but she does find it interesting and perplexing.

.:Special Skills:.

eva is sort of an acrobat, able to leap from building to building and walk along edges. she can use a dagger and knives and do hold a few sword tricks learned from her brother but she’s not quite good in combat.

.:Accents:.

she holds a slightly illiterate accent and sometimes fails to pronounce words correctly for she never got actual schooling. therefore, she sounds a bit barbaric and stupid from time to time.

.:History:.

evangeline’s parents were both lowly farmers who tried to have nothing to do with the kingdom or knightly manners. her brother however went out to seek something more than a farmers life. he eventually came to work at the castle and urged evangeline to work in the kingdom beside him. however, the thought of scrubbing floors and kissing someone else’s feet disgusted her and so evangeline stayed with her parents until her father became terribly ill. within a few days, he died and left the farm to rot. unable to tend to all the crops alone, evangeline’s mother decided to leave their old home and move into the castle to work as servants.

protesting at first, evangeline hated the thought of working for someone other than her own mother and father. however, after much urging from her brother, she finally gave in. she and her mother diligently at the castle, barely calling it a living. angie watched in awe over the knights at the castle who was out and fighting, sword in hand. it all seemed so fun and exciting. she soon found out that the reason her brother had come to the castle in the first place was indeed to become a knight but only those who come from royal or normal lineage could become a knight in shining armor. unfortunately, angie’s brother, however, was a stubborn boy. optimistic and determined, her brother tried his best to serve the kingdom as well as he could, scrubbing floors, fetching drinks, serving dinner. unfortunately, no kissing up to the king or queen would grant him into knightly hood. and so, her brother had enough of it and decided to take up another life, searching the world for a different kingdom that would allow him to become a knight. evangeline begged him to stay or at least take both she and her mother with him but he said it was too dangers and boy was he right. a few days after he left, he was ambushed and killed. angie never heard about him ever since.

her hatred for the kingdom and it’s systems were strengthened when her mother fell ill just like her father. still, they both worked as hard as every until her mother collapsed in the middle of a chore. unfortunately, she died the next morning and angie doubted they had done anything to help her. if wasn’t for the fact that she had promised her brother she would keep working at the castle, she would have run away the instant her mother was burned into ashes.

she wanted to leave the castle for it reminded her of her brother and her mother and she was miserable there. yet she promised her brother she would work there until she could take care of herself so by the age of twelve, evangeline left the castle and began stealing her food, stealing money and stealing clothes. it was all just to get by anyway. plus, she found stealing was not a crime. up to her current age, eva has learned the ways of the streets and even taught herself how to defend herself with a little dagger she had stolen from a noble. she’s been able to get by due to the fact that she’d worked hard enough on the farm and in the castle. now, she torments and charms the people of Camelot.
