Character Details
Name:
Aaminah(ah-MEE-nah) Gulbadan (GOOL-bah-dan)
Aaminah means lady of peace and harmony. It's a family name that is given to the youngest daughter in the Gulbadan family. It's been passed down for generations.
Age:
Aaminah is 28 years old.
Sex:
Female
Faction:
The Hirren
Appearance:
Aaminah has long brown hair that falls below her waist. She usually wears it in braids or pins it up so that it is out of her face. Her eyes are a chocolate brown, her skin is tanned from being out in the sun. She is very petite and thin, partly because of her genetics, but also because sometimes food is difficult to come by. She has a blue tatoo on her back that is the symbol of her family. She doesn't remember getting it because it was given to her soon after birth.
Personality:
Aaminah is tough and has trouble warming up to new people. This is partly because she's had to take care of herself most of her life and living amongst pirates has hardened her heart. She's very negative and likes to dwell on the negative things in life. Underneath it all she can be friendly once you scratch the surface of all of her protective barriers. Aaminah is shy, though she has no trouble holding her own. She is a loner and spends most of her time by herself or with family members.
Strengths:
Aaminah is a metal worker and is known for her methods. Most of her 'clients' come from the ship-building merchants in the Hirren faction. She makes all of the parts and some of the building materials that the Hirren use on their ships. She's also a decent archer, which is where most of her meals come from. Whatever she can find in the swamp or forest is what goes into her stomach.
Weaknesses: ((You must have a weakness))
Though most people in her clan are able to use magic in some form, Aaminah is not able to get a grip on those abilities. So far, she has shown no signs of having any kind of magical abilities. She does not see this has a hindrance, although some people do look down on her because of it.
History:
Aaminah was born in during the summer, and is the youngest out of eight siblings. Her parents kept to the family tradition of naming the youngest daughter Aaminah. Also, as the youngest member of the family she carries the family crest on her body in the form of a tatoo which stretches the length of her back.
During her childhood Aaminah learned to get by on her own, as her older siblings were busy working or making their own way. She has an extraordinary imaginiation, although she usually doesn't admit this, as some consider it a sign of weakness. Her father was a metal worker before he died and after his death she took up the family trade, as no one else was interested or able. Since then, she's come up with some of her own ways with working with metal and has become quite succesful in the business. Sometimes she travels to other regions in search of metal because it is so rare in the swamp lands of the Hirren faction.
Aaminah sticks to herself and is considered somewhat of an outcast within the Hirren faction. This is mostly due to her non-magical abilities as well as her upbringing. Her family is known for going against Hirren tradition.
The need for food forced Aaminah to teach herself how to use a bow, which she uses to hunt animals living in the swamps or the surrounding forest. She lives simply but relatively happily and at the moment has no intentions of pairing up with anyone and having a family.
Sample Rp:
Aaminah pounded the metal and shaped it into the current piece she was making. She was currently working on a massive order that was made a week ago. She had until today to get it finished and would make the deadline as long as she wasn't interrupted. Sweat trickled down her face as the summer heat made its way into her tent. That was one thing that she still hadn't grown accustomed to over the years--she had always preferred milder temperatures.
After about an hour of working on the part, it was ready to cool. At this rate she may never get done, but she would do her best. Sighing she reached for her water jug and took a long gulp. Normally she would break for her midday meal at this point, but she had promised herself to work through the hour in order to fill the order. She couldn't afford to loose any of her clients. She was struggling to make ends meet as it was.
