Kateri'a Janikin

Name: Kateri'a Janikin (KAT-er-EE-uh JAN-ih-kin)

Nicknames: Kat, Ria (REE-uh)

Age/POB/DOB: 19, Born in Galla, June 27th

Gender: Female

Gender Preferences: None. She'll bed either or.

Magic: Not an inkling.

Appearance: Stands at about 5'6", and has been described as 'dumpy'. At 149 pounds, she's not your average girl. She has shoulder-length -really- curly brown hair (which refuses to be tamed) and plain hazel eyes. She prefers to wear loose clothing, whether it be shirt and breeches or blouse and skirt. She keeps a small knife in a sheath at the small of her back, just in case she needs it. She always wears the bead choker (see History).

Personality: Kat's not much of a talker, but often introduces herself to people just for the heck of it. She tends to flirt with both sexes, but knows when to back off. Most of the time. She tends to be cynical and pessimistic. Unless of course she got lucky the night before. Which is often.

Strengths: Is a fairly good fighter when it comes to protecting herself, but will not go out of the way to pick fights.

Weaknesses: Gets terrible hangovers, and likes to drink. Not a good combination. Can sometimes be a bit too eager to get people into bed, and has gotten into a bit of trouble from that. Is ticklish, and feel free to take advantage of that. Is deathly afraid [I mean, seriously.] of magic, but will accept a Healing if it's absolutely necessary, no getting around it, and she's already passed out anyway.

Idiosyncracies: Has a bad habit of chewing on her thumbs, and refuses to stop despite all "persuasion" to stop. Has a tendency to roll into walls or off couches in her sleep. Don't worry about her, she'll just sleep on.

Romantic Interests: Long, long story. Dak was out of the picture, but he came back.. And now he's going again, being on the run for stealing an emerald (which Kat thinks was -very- stupid of him.) Zel's been there for her the whole time through, and has told her he loves her. Eep. Considering how confusing it is, I suggest you check out Kat's Journal [*points to right*] for more info.
(Will deny it to her death, but anyone who comes along.)

Most prized possessions: Her bead choker and pregnancy charm, both of which she never takes off.. except for baths. Sometimes.

Pets: A brown rabbit dubbed Chair, after a rather embarrassing but highly amusing dream and consequential actions.

Family:
Father, Cormac Janikin.
Mother, Calliope Janikin, deceased.
Brother, Mercer Janikin, 21.
Twin brothers, Baldric and Bayard Janikin, 15.
Sister, Derica Janikin, 9.

History: Kat was born in Galla, and her family moved to Corus when she was 7. After living in a small house for just over 2 years, her mother became ill not long after having her sister and died suddenly, leaving Kat only with the bead choker. She lived with her father and siblings for several years before leaving the small home to take a job with a cobbler. She rents a room at the inn, but she is more often found in a corner of commons or wrapped up on a chair or couch in her flannel blanket.
