Rue Buckthorn (WIP)

 

 The line between the dead and the living, the hare's skin and the wolf's teeth, the flank and the horsefly, river and brook, neck and snare, between you and I --- it is thin. I bleed into you.

-- Buck

 

A backwoods daughter, Rue Buckthorn was raised among beasts. She is a masterful survivalist, talented trapper, and ferocious huntsman who combines her intimate knowledge of forest life and magical abilities.

 

Despite the rough hands and set jaw, she is gentle and kind, slow to anger and slower still to harm. Her rowdy familiar is the one you should be wary of.

Personality


[InRue depthBuckthorn explanationis the sort of stranger you spill your guts to at three in the personalitymorning, six beers deep at the local pub. A shoulder to cry on, a hand up when you fall, an ever-lending ear... Like the woods she calls home, Buck exudes a feeling of warmth, stability, and quiet. Soft-spoken and somewhat shy, decades of isolated living left her abysmal at small talk. This isolation has also taught her patience and the character]power of a gentle hand. It takes a certain kind of care, of course, to separate a rabbit from its skin, catch a perch with only your hands, or forage blackberries without pricking yourself on the brambles. 

Raised in a collectivist community, Buck is the sort to love often and abundantly. She is not ungenerous with her affection, sharing with others without expectation of reward.

Usage Notes


  • Misgendering/Transphobia
    • I get enough of this in the real world, so there is no need to explore it here, too. 
  • Shipping/NSFW 
    • Just ask first! Usually down for a romance plotline, though :)

Beyond that, go wild.
