Meet Zoe Romany - Warrior Maid

Zoe Romany is the second youngest of the Romany clan at age 18, a mere ten minutes older than her twin, Sam. She is not prone to household activities, preferring the wildness and beauty of the outside domain. Her skin is tan from the sun and her long, dark auburn hair is carelessly fastened back with a leather thong.

She is cautious and wary beyond her years, and usually slow when giving her trust to others. But her trust, once bestowed, is firmly in place and impossible to shake. She puts on a fearless façade, hiding any trepidation she may feel. She is not particularly skilled in any area, so she has to fight for every last inch of respect she receives. She feels the need to prove herself at every turn. Her determination is unwavering, which has given her the ability to train with the sword, dagger, and bow and arrows, though she will never possess more than average abilities.

She travels with a hunting dagger worn at her belt. She is dressed in forest green clothes: leggings, knee length tunic, and a wide leather belt. Her horse, Brac, is her one comfort after her separation from her family. Zoe presents a front that exudes confidence…but inside, she wonders if she will ever measure up.

Nice. :-) I can't wait to read your story! Especially after telling about the beginning on Thursday. ;-) By the way, it's funny that you should have Zoe be ten minutes older than Sam, because in the back of my brain I was thinking the same thing! Zoe and Sam seem very different in personality, which kind of makes them fit together, like connecting pieces of a puzzle.
Love ya, Em!
