Gender: Female
Pronouns: She/her
Sexuality: Demiromantic
Alignment: Light
Personality traits: Quiet, Timid, Gentle, Thoughtful, Bubbly, Warm, Kind, Cheerful, Giving.
Personality: Noelle has a very warm, cheerful, and bright personality although she is often very quiet and timid and it can take her some time to warm up to and trust others. She had some difficulty understanding social cues and reading facial expressions when she was younger, but worked really hard to improve this to fit in more. Because of this however, she was the victim of some bullying and has been treated as an outcast. In the past people have commented on her strange behavior and told her she was off putting and talked too much about the things she cared about.
This has caused her to become more socially anxious, quiet and reserved than the ideal version of herself. You can often find her sticking to walls and looking at the ground in social gatherings worried she may upset someone. If she does ever catch herself rambling about something she will stop midway through talking and apologize thinking she may be making the other party uncomfortable or they do not actually care about what she has to say. It can take Noelle some time to warm up to someone and feel comfortable, she does slowly come out of her shell and begins to build confidence on her own. She still needs to be reminded from time to time that it’s okay to express her boundaries and the people who care about her want to know what is going on in her life. When Noelle does feel more comfortable her eyes light up with wonder and she is one of the sweetest, brightest and warmest spirits you could meet. She loves to share parts of her culture and interests with the people she cares about. Some of her favorite things to do with others would be winter related activities like ice skating, ice and snow sculptures, baking, decorating cookies, and showing her friends her permafrost plants/flowers and the crystals/rocks in her collection. She is also an incredible giving spirit and loves to give others presents she makes, or finds. She will often bring flowers, handmade presents, baked goods or rocks that she thinks are nice and give it to someone as a sign of her affection or to cheer them up if they are having a bad day.
Description: Noelle has a very dainty and delicate, yet inviting appearance even among her cool color pallet. She is a bit shorter than most, reaching just about 5’0 or 5'3 if you count her horns. She has shorter silvery white hair that just barely reaches her shoulders, brushing against them lightly with their soft curls. Peeking out from the sides of her hair are two droopy faun ears that are slightly darker than her hair, in a silvery white mimicking the freshly fallen snow of her homeland. Decorating the outer tips of her ears are white spots resembling snowflakes and offsetting the gentle brown rimming the inner part of her ears. Noelle is often seen wearing a gentle expression with large round doe eyes almost permanently fixed on the floor. Her long white eyelashes are often obscuring but standing out from her evergreen colored irises. Her scarlet pupils are so dark they appear almost black, but when her eyes catch glimpses of sunlight her pupils reflect different shades of red like dark marbles. Noelle’s face is a bit smaller, and round with her incredibly pale icy skin. Due to Noelle’s home being permanently covered in snow and frost, Noelle’s nose and cheeks have taken on a permanent rosy hue, bringing more warmth to her features. Her body is smaller and willowy, although it is hidden behind the oversized sweaters, scarves, mittens and she knits herself. From her waist down Noelle's skin transitions to fur and faun legs in the same silvery gray as her ears. Closer to her ankles, the silvery gray of her coat transitions to a pristine white matching the spots along her ears and hide. On her hooves her white hairs cover her dark chocolate brown hooves slightly.
Noelle can also shift into a doe form, although still smaller than most, reaching only about 4 ft tall even with her horns. Her coat is the same silvery gray as her faun form that almost blends in seamlessly with the snow around her. Decorating the bridge of her back and hide are pristine white spots mimicking snowflakes on a snowy evening. On top of Noelle’s head in both of her forms are two smaller wooden antlers with mistletoe leaves and white berries that never die or fade.

Companionship: Noelle would like a smaller to medium sized family if possible, at least until she feels more comfortable in her home. Ideally she would like a medium sized close knit community she can feel safe in as she gets overwhelmed in larger crowds and around lots of people. She is willing to go to a family that will eventually grow larger as long as everyone is kind, understanding and patient with her. Noelle is not the best at expressing her needs or boundaries and she sometimes needs someone who she trusts to gently coax them out of her. Because of this, and her possible Autism diagnosis she is classified as a special needs spirit and would do best with someone who is already established with astral travel and communication although she is not against having a beginner companion.
Bonding activities: Building snowmen together, ice skating, going on walks in nature especially in winter, reading, listening to calming music, making homemade tea, hot chocolate and peppermints, baking, knitting, watching comforting feel good movies, cozy games and hobbies.
Culture: Noelle’s homeland is reminiscent of an eternal winter wonderland and although there are different holidays, the winter snow is a constant in every phase of life. Their equivalent to Yule and Christmas is more of a culture than type of year to Noelle’s species. Many of Noelle’s hobbies and interests revolve around this time of year. Due to how important Christmas is to Noelle and her species it's really important to her that she goes to a home that also celebrates some form of Yule or Christmas or at least is comfortable with her talking about, decorating and celebrating this part of her culture. Noelle would never want to make anyone uncomfortable or push her beliefs on anyone else, however it would make her very happy to have a companion to celebrate with.
Extra: Although Noelle is not officially diagnosed yet, she believes she may have or at least have symptoms of Autism. She is hoping to find a therapist, group or community she can feel safe talking to and sharing her unique experiences of how she views and processes the world differently than others. It is really important to her that she feels safe in her new home. It’s important her companion takes the time to understand and see things from her point of view and try to understand and help her feel more comfortable as much as she tries to help others feel more comfortable. Noelle is working on trying to accept this part of herself and does not want to be with a companion who will try to change or make her feel bad about who she is.
