Thierry

Name: Thierry Belleaux
Race: Blood Elf
Class: Paladin
Guild: House Sunwhisper
Age: Looks to be about 18
Birthplace: Eversong Woods
==Outward Appearance==
Thierry has very dark red curly hair to her upper back. The curls are often unruly and frequently fall into her face or puff up in the humidity of Stranglethorn Vale. Her frame is small, and she is rather short at 5' 2". She has abnormally large, round eyes that are more goofy-looking than attractive, and her face is very expressive, easily contorted by her emotions. She has three pearls in both her ears that never seem to be taken out. Her body is gangly and scrawny, not by any means womanly, and her personality only helps to magnify how childish she can seem. Easily embarrassed and teased, her cheeks and forehead are almost always flushed red.
==Personality==
This dumb young girl is very much just that- a dumb young girl. She is unfailingly friendly to everyone she meets, and usually very energetic, often to the point of making those around her very uncomfortable. She is quick to make assumptions about others, and just as quick to apologize for being (usually) wrong. She seems to be aware of the vast amount of bad Blood Elf stereotypes and subconsciously strives to avoid them, though she was admittedly much more typically "elf-like" before she left home. She is loud, childish, and very loving. She is often ignorant of goings on in the current wars, as well as ignorant of the other races' cultures, and is very adamant about wanting to learn more. She has an obvious fascination with Troll culture, despite (and because of) her father's hatred of them. While most people simply find her antics and flightiness annoying, some have grown to (begrudgingly) enjoy her company, and many of those people have taken on roles as pseudo-family members; Thierry has not yet failed at collecting friends who are determined to "protect" her from the world.
==Background==
Having been born and grown up in Eversong Woods, just outside Silvermoon City, Thierry had been lower-class since a very young age, and then quite poor when ruin came to the city. Her parents lost their jobs and struggled to make ends meet, and Thierry considered joining the army at the suggestion of her mother. It came as an obvious shock, one evening, when a family of nobles showed up at her doorstep and whisked her away to be married, arranged by her parents in exchange for a stipend to live on. Hurt and confused, Thierry ran away from Silvermoon, leaving her battered ex-fiancé in her wake. Wanting to get as far away as possible, she took the next zeppelin to Kalimdor where she was to wander homeless for two and a half years.
==Important People==
Having made one or two acquaintances while traveling the Barrens as a vagrant, she found herself at the Ratchet tavern, The Drunken Kodo, where she made two of her most important friends, a miss Salyssa Whitesun and a Doctor Carnage Vi'le. Salyssa and Thierry took a shaky liking to eachother, which eventually blossomed into a very affectionate friendship. Doctor Carnage, or "Doc", was the first person to take Thierry in off the streets (or plains, rather) and offered her a temporary home in his study, a rented room at the Inn in Brill. This led Thierry to seek work as a barmaid in the The Gallows End tavern below. She could often be seen running various errands around Kalimdor for the Innkeeper in Brill, Renee. However, because of the increasingly dangerous tasks Renee had been asking of her, as well as the constant words of concern from her various friends who visited her at the tavern, Thierry has recently moved away from Brill to Thunder Bluff, and currently works at The Salty Sailor in Booty Bay.
Doctor Carnage became a very important figure in Thierry's life. What started out as brief infatuation transformed into a complex and trustful friendship, which she gets a lot of guff for considering the Doctor's morbid reputation as a mad scientist and bloodthirsty abomination. Still, she makes it clear very often that she trusts him with her life and becomes very upset at any ill spoken of him.
Two more important figures are Benvolio and Mel'lodi. Benvolio, a young student and overall kind-hearted person, was gracious enough to induct Thierry into his order, The House Sunwhisper, where she currently studies and trains as a Paladin. Mel'lodi, the King of Kai'So, took it upon himself to mentor her in many aspects of the world and of his own culture. Thierry has grown to have an immense respect and admiration for both these men, as well as a great fondness. She has no shame in seeking them out, following them around, or having the occasional picnic with Ben.
Recently, while carting various goods for Renee around Orgrimmar, Thierry was caught staring at an armored Troll at the bank, a Zurali Gustfury. What began as an awkward friendship slowly grew into an obvious attraction between the two, which disturbed each of them concerning their respective races' lack of love for each other. Despite their initial worries and personal conflicts, the painfully innocent Thierry and gruff soldier Zurali began a shy relationship, which still continues currently. The two are both very easily teased and taunted, though Thierry is usually oblivious to any innuendos about dating Trolls, much to Zurali's chagrin.
==Various Facts==
*Thierry often litters her speaking with various unintelligible phrases, which she claims are from a no-longer used dialect of Thalassian her mother spoke (in fact, French)
*Thierry has no perfume or odor, but those who get close enough to her to tell, can faintly smell honey.
*Thierry has a small perky pug with one mechanical eye, received after a failed polymorph experiment by Salyssa, whom she affectionately dubbed Dogtor Carnage.
*Thierry wears a lot of red, presumably to stay in touch with her roots as a Blood Elf.
*Thierry is a Paladin, though not particularly religious. She was pushed into it by her mother.
*Thierry is bad at most things. She has little fighting or survival skills, and as such, her friends often get caught up in protecting her. Still, she is a rather passable cook.
