Character Profile: Tera Blackburn
Character Name: Tera Blackburn
Profession: Machinist, Gunsmith, and Security at The Drunken Moogle
Hair: Dark Brown, fading into lighter brown at the tips.
Appearance details: No scarring, usually wearing gloves, and tall! (6′2″)
Personality: Tera is best summed up as aggressively friendly. She smiles easily, and often. She’s also endlessly curious, with a wide array of interests and hobbies that she’s picked up because they caught her eye, even if only for a few days. She’s bright, a bit loud, but has a good heart beneath it all, and even though she’s easily distracted, she’s always willing to be a shoulder to cry on or a friendly ear to listen to another’s problems.
Childhood: Tera grew up in Ala Mhigo, with her loving mother, her embittered father, and a whole slew of issues that came from Ala Mhigo being ruled by an insane dictator of a king. Her mother died, though Tera was young enough that the exact circumstances of how and why are unclear, and her father fled with her. First to the Shroud, where her people were rejected, and then to Thanalan, to the laughable ‘city’ of Little Ala Mhigo. That’s where Tera broke off from her father, and, indeed, from most of her own people, deciding to seek her fortune on her own instead of spending her life in squalor being bitter about a city that, in her eyes, they put the torch to all on their own.
Lacey Grigorias- One of Tera’s first friends, this effeminate male Miqo’te helped heal the bruise she earned from her job interview. She also thinks he’s very cute, and is glad to know he’s okay with the fact that she pets him often.
Strengths, talents, and points of pride: Tera is a crack shot, and damn proud of it. She can, in her own words, “shoot the wings off a vilekin from 30 yalms!” and has the talent to back it up. She’s also a gunsmith, and has a decent array of weaponry that she’s built herself. She picks up new hobbies easily, and learns quickly, and she’s got a quick wit, plus a natural fondness for tinkering!
Weaknesses, detriments, and points of improvement: Tera is proud of her skills. Too proud, actually, and she’s got a short fuse, especially in regards to feeling personally slighted by others. While she picks up new hobbies easily, she’s just as easily distracted, and forgets what she’s doing with very few exceptions. Her curiousity often gets the best of her, and her sharp tongue tends to escalate situations that could be resolved with calm words.
Favored alcoholic beverage: Anything fruity, she doesn’t like tasting alcohol.
Favored food: Aldgoat steaks
Favored weather or season: Spring, it’s the right mix of pleasant weather and bright colors
