Here goes...
Name: Aida (pronounced "Ida")
Race: Mudokon
Gender: Female (sterile)
Age: Almost adult, but not quite- around 18 or so in human years
Appearance: Thin and underfed, with many scars lacing aross her back, arms, and legs. Regular green in color, while her feather is a dull red.
Personality: Very shy and very quiet. She almost never makes eye contact and generally keeps her head down while near others. If confronted with even mildly hostile behavior- especially from sligs- she will try to shrink and back away. Being confronted with a group of sligs will make her panic and look for an escape from her predicament.
Equipment: None.
History: Born and raised a slave, she was badly mistreated by the sligs patrolling her work area in NiccoBlast Cigarettes Inc. While still an adolecent, she voiced her complaints of their treatment of her to their superiors. This resulted in the entire group ganging up on her and cutting out her tongue. Because of this she is mute, and uses gestures or writes when she wants to communicate.
