Character Information
Name: Adelina Canon: The Two Princesses of Bamarre Age: 16 Gender: Female Canon Point: Post-canon Background Link:boop Inventory: A dress, her wedding charm, and a pair of sturdy boots (formerly magical, now depowered).
Personality: Raised as a princess, perhaps the first thing anyone would notice about Adelina is her elegance and grace. While she does sometimes panic in times of extreme crisis, she most often appears composed and calm, and she’s able to think rationally in most times of danger. Through her journey in canon, she becomes accustomed to reacting well in situations that involve the possibility of injury or even death - being attacked by gryphons, being kidnapped by a dragon, the list goes on. As such, she can be described as not only calm and composed, but incredibly brave as well.
Her bravery stems from the people she cares for; there’s little she wouldn’t do for those she loves. Though the chance of survival was slim, she goes on a journey to find a cure for her sister’s illness nonetheless. She’s fiercely loyal and protective once she bonds with someone. Over the course of canon, she develops the desire to protect everyone, not only those she’s close to; after witnessing a child killed by a gryphon, she makes a promise to herself that she’ll do all she can to protect the land she lives in. However, though her drive to protect everyone grows over the course of canon, she remains pragmatic about who it’s possible to save and who can’t be helped. For example, when one of her loved ones is injured in the heat of battle and she thinks he may have been killed, she doesn’t go to help him; she realizes that she can’t spare a moment of concentration in the midst of the fight to make certain he’s unharmed.
Likewise, her drive to protect people moves into a deeper desire; she wants to help build a world where all people can be safe permanently. Her largest wish for herself is to live peacefully and help others do the same, safe from the dangers that plague her country. In order to pursue this goal, she’ll willingly fight and engage in battle. Enduring a period of time of chaos or war, to her, is worth it if it means it will bring about a longer period of peace and tranquility. This is her greatest desire.
However, not all of her desire to save the people of her country comes from altruism or compassion; there’s also a sizable degree of guilt that motivates her. She spent her childhood remaining as willfully ignorant to the problems that plagued her country as she could be, and she would have been satisfied without offering them help if her eyes weren’t opened to the lengths of the suffering that they were still enduring. She recognizes this fact, and after changing her ways, part of the reason she’s committed so deeply to helping people is the fact that she didn’t concern herself with that cause while she was younger.
Apart from her bravery, her love of people and desire to protect them, there are other notable aspects of her personality. She’s artistic; she loves to draw and embroider, and it’s something that provides her relief from any stress or worries she experiences. It’s written at one point that while she’s doing art, she can distract herself and lose herself for hours.
Additionally, she’s very intelligent and resourceful, able to use her environment to her advantage in times of need. During her quest to save her sister, there are several moments she wouldn’t have survived if not for her quick thinking and wit. This is undoubtedly her strongest weapon in battle. As well as being intelligent, she’s also very curious and easily fascinated by new knowledge and new experiences. One of the other characters in the book is a sorcerer, and each time he performs some kind of magic she responds with great interest, wanting to know how it was done and enjoying the spectacle every time she sees it.
Of course, with all of her strengths, she has several weaknesses as well. She can become frustrated easily, regardless of whether she lets that feeling show or not. She can be stubborn as well, and believe she’s right even when the evidence stacks up to the contrary, particularly during tense situations or conversations. When this happens, she typically realizes her mistake when she’s had time to calm down and think things through, but it’s still a notable trait of hers.
Flavor Abilities: Drawing, painting, embroidery. All that artsy stuff.
Suitability: She’s no stranger to being in dangerous situations, so what Snowblind brings won’t be entirely new to her; what will be new is having other people in close proximity that are also being exposed to the same kind of danger. As such, I think she’ll strive to protect others as best she can, in any way she can, whether that functions as warning others of danger wherever she sees it, or trying to shield any of her companions at a given time from harm. She’ll willingly provide emotional support to other characters when needed, but her focus will be on keeping others safe by any means.
