She/Her ❅ Arctic hare ❅ Guardian

**Yvonna** (also known as “The Cold-Hearted Warrior”) is an adult female Arctic hare who is the current protector of Livsgud’s Garden, a sacred area where blessed flowers grow and aid the environment. Like all good guardians, she is cold and unforgiving while at-work, but warm and kind when around friends and family. She protects the "garden" with pride and is never seen slacking off, although she is a bit of a workaholic, sometimes not getting enough sleep or food out of paranoia that somebody will sneak in while she’s resting. Her family is worried for her because of this and her mother frequently takes over her shifts while her father takes her out to the nearby villages to take a break, although Yvonna’s anxiety hasn’t gotten better despite their efforts. However, she remains as sweet as ever when around her friends and enjoys their company when they come to visit her as they’re a big de-stressor for her, even though she would never admit that.

Personality

*Cold, calculating, ruthless* are words that come to mind when most people think of Yvonna. She’s quiet and closed-off, almost saying nothing to the strangers that stray too close to home except for a violent warning or two. She’s too busy squaring you up for chit-chat, searching for your weak points and analyzing how dangerous you are in battle just from your body and clothes. Besides, why would she want to get personal with a possible thief? To her, it sounds like a good way to be taken advantage of. The years of training she endured that taught her such lessons have left her intelligent and strong yet almost emotionless and with no sympathy. However, she is fair and has morals, so she will never attack unless you’ve proven yourself to be a threat to the holy grounds and will put up a good fight. Unless you play dirty, that is. Yvonna has a few tricks up her sleeve herself and isn’t afraid to use them, especially if her opponent is playing unfair.

The locals who live in the nearby territories are used to this type of entity prowling around Livsgud’s Garden. She’s simply just the newest guardian doing her job. However, there is something very different about her from the rest. In the past, guardians have always allowed returning visitors to forage around the area with no knives pointed at their throats. Yet this one, this Yvonna, is seemingly spring-loaded. It’s like she tenses up the moment she hears something coming her way, whether is by feral animal or person, and this tension continues whenever a villager she has seen over twenty times to forage for goods. "The guardians in the past had trust," some would say, "that one… that one glares at you like you’re planning to eliminate her family, despite being an old lady who just wants to pick up some food. Her body tenses up as if she’s going to slaughter you if you make one wrong move. Don’t quite feel safe around that one… she’s changed a lot since she was a leveret." Her unforgiving personality has given her the name "The Cold-Hearted Warrior" among the townsfolk and visitors are advised to stay far, far away from Livsgud’s Garden for their own safety.

Of course, Yvonna’s cold personality doesn’t end at just looking after the garden and being intimidating. There have been quite a few genuine threats that try to pick the blessed flowers and have met a rather gruesome end. The guardian isn’t afraid to harm or even kill those who seek to sabotage the land or their own selfish gain; she takes the fact that the environment is in her paws *very* seriously and will do anything to keep the flowers out of the grasp of the wrong people. In fact, she is so dedicated to her job that her parents have to drag her away from her post sometimes just so she can get some rest, often not sleeping or eating for days to look for threats. However, while she may just be seen as a workaholic who’s a bit too invested in her job, there is something much more serious going on in her psyche that she simply refuses to bring up…

On the inside, Yvonna is riddled with stress and anxiety. She is constantly paranoid that if she lets her guard down or is too trusting of someone that they’ll take advantage of her and get to the flowers. That’s the reason she’s untrusting of everyone. She’ll never know if the grandmother who comes down to forage will suddenly attack or not, so she is constantly on-edge and ready for battle. She always keeps her eye on the most recent visitor because she feels safer and more confident when they’re in-view, that way, they can’t silently sneak past her or perform some sort of surprise attack. She doesn’t sleep or go to eat for days on end because she’s afraid that, if she does, the garden will be attacked and her parents would be disappointed in her, or even worse, the environment will perish. She feels stress and fear whenever she sees somebody approaching in the distance, fear that they’ll be a threat that’ll defeat or outsmart her, but she’s become so good at masking her anxiety with a façade of cold-hearted bravery that the only thing people think is that she’s just extremely dedicated to her guardian job, if a bit tense.

Trivia

* "Yvonna" is a feminine name that has French and Old German origins that translate to "yew" in English. However, in Hebrew it translates to "Gift/Grace of God" and in Scandinavian it translates to "warrior". Her mother chose out her name in-universe due to both the Hebrew and Scandinavian translations.
	+ Her family affectionately calls her Yo-Yo (like the toy) as a nickname. Yvonna herself thinks it’s cute, but she would never let her friends find out about it out of fear of them making fun of her.
* Yvonna can fluently speak both Greenlandic and Danish, Greenland’s mother language. She understands a fair amount of English as well, but can’t really speak it fluently.
