Sloan

Sloan has long brown hair that she often has tied in a messy braid (or sometimes multiple braids) and dark brown eyes.  She has a tall and muscular frame, standing at five-foot-eight-inches tall, and she’s covered in various scars from the violent lifestyle she’s lived.  Her brows are straight and dark, and her face is oval-shaped).

## Attire

Leather armour — it’s more comfortable and flexible than metal, and who even wears that, anyway? It keeps her warmer, too, and that’s what’s really important when it comes to living in Cimo.  She’s often carrying plenty of weapons on her, too; various knives tucked into her boots and belt as well as her usual sword.

## Personality

The last thing that Sloan is is a calm, laid-back woman. Once a warrior for hire, she is an assertive woman that still holds petty grudges from when she was a child. She doesn't stand for people not doing things her way — which is lying and blaming others to get out of trouble. In fact, she has spent much of her time with the younger generation, being a general bad influence and trying to convince them that her way is better than the people around her. She is an easily-jealous person, and is very opposed to change. In her ideal world, there would be no such thing as seasons, aging, or even the weather changes that the world puts up with. People that slight her, even in the slightest of ways, are instantly cut out of her life — when asked about why she no longer speaks to a certain person, a common answer from her is “they're dead to me”. She hasn't adjusted completely to a settled life yet, despite having been a {country, not Bearhall-reigned one} for almost a year now, and often has to remind herself that a certain action she would normally take would be breaking the law. She does enjoy the lifestyle, and likes not having to be alone anymore, but change has always been a hard thing for her — hence her dislike of it. While she doesn't have many close friends — or any at all, really — she is a loyal cat who will defend her country no matter what it takes, even if she isn't close to many of her countrymen. She does, however, wish to become closer to them, and someday wants to have a husband and, eventually, children. Secretly, she's quite the romantic, looking forward to spending time with a man that will put up with her and being courted. She's a person that doesn't fear much, as she has gotten used to having to care for herself in conditions worse than what {country} usually deals with. She also enjoys spending time with children, despite being a horrible influence for them, and can often be found allowing the younger generation to crawl all over her if that's what they want to do. She isn't adverse to picking favorites, either, and will openly favor them as well. At times, she misses her old home and her family, but she cares more about the life she has now and has no plans to give it up. She's an aloof person who only subtly shows her emotions, and she also has a bit of a short temper. However, her temper isn't explosive — when she does get angry, she gets quiet, and tends to make the people around her feel a silent sort of danger before she proceeds to rip into them — physically or metaphorically, depending on the person. She never really feels the need to yell or scream, and tends to speak in an even, level, sometimes even cold and uncaring tone at all times.

## History

Born in Winterway as the oldest of three siblings, Sloan grew up in the far north of the country, where the snow never melted and the air was always cold.  She learned about death early on, as two of her siblings died soon after they were born, unable to adjust to the cold, making her and her remaining siblings be carefully protected, but allowed to grow strong all the same.  Their mother often praised them for being the strongest of the strong, as only the most powerful of people could live as far north as they did. Once Sloan grew older, she decided to go out and make a living for herself, taking up a sword and deciding to fight for a living.  She went south, half out of curiosity for what was down there and half because that was the only way to go, and came across Mooridge. She’d been hired on behalf of Bearhall to kill someone in the government, but instead she came across a man in the government who was impressed by her skill and offered her a position in the army — specifically, as part of the Overseer’s guard, and promised a hefty and constant paycheck if she took on the job.  She agreed, as long as she got her first payment immediately, and has been serving under the banner of Mooridge ever since.
