Appearence

Standing at 5'6, Riley has short black hair and matching eyes. This is hard to see due to her preference for black trenchcoats over a black slacks and top. Alongside her trenchcoat is a matching hood and mask she wears over her nose.

Personality (Major WIP)

Despite her look, Riley is very outgoing and friendly to anyone she meets. This makes her very trusting and to a point, naive to others to the point she seems unaware of her surroundings. Because of this, Riley is able to confuse or disturb others, making her unorthodox and out there.

While outgoing, this allows Riley unusually perceptive and seem unassuming, but also childlike and highly immature for her age. This mellowed out as she aged however.

Riley also has a soft spot for children and animals, despising bullying and harm. When it comes to helping those she generally likes, she can surprisingly stop being an airhead and show open malice and preparation to kill.

She’s also not a picky eater, partially due to being raised by goblins and viewing all meat as meat, and not eating it before it goes to waste as disgusting and a waste of perfectly good meat. Because of this, she can partake in cannibalism or eating other sentient races as well as someone who would eat a hamburger and not see an issue with it. Despite this, she refuses to kill another sentient being for food.

Riley also has a distrust for wood elves, as her adoptive parents were killed by wood elves. She however, rarely allows that to get by when money is an option and views High Elves in high regards.

Backstory (Spoilers and Major WIP)

Raised by goblins after wood elves attacked her family’s carriage, Riley was raised by a growing family which expanded from a single mother and father to 20 siblings. At some point, 18 of these siblings were slaughtered by adventures, her parents as well. Mistaken for a stockholm shocked child, Riley was brought in and raised by a small family of assassins and spies. Teased and mocked for being known as ‘The Goblin Child’ and a mark on her head from a head injury, Riley was used to having food thrown at her and pelted with pebbles or even poisoned and attacked by her own new family.

By 16, the young woman would leave, aiming to find a new life in Meadowcraft. She’s been searching for the village ever since, even at the ripe age of 24.

Equipment

Riley typically dresses light, but is outfitted with a few daggers and a rapier for offense, a shortbow, and her family ring. She also carries a tent, bullets (despite lacking a firearm), as well as rope

Trivia

Riley’s favorite food is wood elf ears served with a healthy spread of lemon juice and crushed raspberries, her favorite drink being goat milk

Riley is atheist, believing the ‘Gods’ to be just people who unlocked hidden science and unwilling to share

If in the real world, Riley would be Chinese-Irish mixed

Riley’s ring is a heirloom from her goblin parents. As such, shes never without it, even when showering or in bed. In-game, it allows a +1 save to save checks. But in-universe, she's so protective of it that she gains a small bit of adrenaline to protect it.

By the current timeline, Riley would be in her early or late 40s
