Other: I'll mention a bit of fun facts and trivia in this section. Habits and such.

To start this off, I'll reveal that Eyierthis is an alcoholic and a druggie. Both have been bad habits for years now, but she started doing drugs long before she started drinking. Her drug problems have resulted in grave addiction (obviously) as well as a few mental drawbacks. For example, Eyierthis has a lousy sense of time and she can't, even if her life would depend on it, count above twenty. She's not retarded, but she's a bit slow when it comes to numbers. Worth mentioning is that Eyierthis' alcoholism isn't very serious. Although she won't stop once she started drinking, she can usually keep herself under strict check whenever she has a job to do. After all, she needs her income, and the desperation for her salary is greater than her longing for the soothing effects of the alcohol (mostly because she needs the money to keep her stock of drugs from running too low). Due to these two habits, she always carries drugs on her and at least one bottle of alcoholic liquid. Due to past misfortunes, all drugs she carry are well hidden and not -too- illegal.

Eyierthis possesses a number of weapons, as already mentioned, and one in particular that she's got a close relationship with and always carries around and probably uses more often than any other of her weapons is the javelin Gregory (See: History). During her trips, she may be seen having lively conversations with it.

It's questionable wether this is because of the drugs or not, but Eyierthis often finds herself waking up from nearly apathic states at completely random occasions. Sometimes she can recall pondering some deep philosophical idea, and sometimes she can't remember squat of what happened when she was "gone" in her little trance-like state. This happens on completely random occasions, though usually if not always when she's alone.

Alignment: Chaotic Good

Appearance

This changes as actively as her hair does. She rarely wears the same outfit for more than a few days before she discards whatever she was wearing previously to switch to something else. Usually it's nothing overly expensive or flashy since her income won't allow it, but it's decent enough to serve its purpose; Protect her life and her precious skin. Due to her occupation, she always needs to be able to protect herself and her garments will usually reflect that unless she's lazy at some point and only wears simpler outfits. She always carries a number of weapons with her, despite only being truly proficient with less than half of them. You can probably tell she only carries them for show.

Personality

Eyierthis is a very confusing woman. Because of her bad habits with drugs and alcohol, her behaviour is constantly changing and she suffers from grave mood swings (especially when the effects of her drugs or the alcohol starts to wear off). Due to her unhealthy lifestyle, she can often be percieved as tired and somewhat sickly whenever she's been without her drugs for more than two days. However, Eyierthis does have her own personality beneath the drugs and the alcohol. As somewhat of an outcast of her old society (much due to her earlier bad habits) she has a wider range of view on the racial perspective. Although this is mostly forced since she won't get anywhere with her work if she's picky with who or what employs her. Money is money, after all, and you've got to make a living somehow.

She's well adjusted to the lifestyle of a freelancer and can easily be percieved by other Blood Elves as careless and, probably, as a disgrace to their race. Whatever pride she once had as a Sin'dorei is long gone, though a little bit of her arrogance might surface when she's high. Regarding her pride, again, you could probably say she's completely without pride nowadays. She's truly become a shameless addict and scoundrel, which makes her fit fairly well into the environment in and around Ratchet and other Cartel cities. This makes her somewhat laid-back as a person and she's difficult to anger. Most of what people say to her bounce back since Eyierthis simply doesn't care enough to be affected by others' opinions of her. The only exception to this is compliments and praise, as she gladly drowns in either of these to feed her ego.

History

Her childhood was not really anything worthy of mention. Her parents were both arcanists and they attempted to inspire their daughter into following on the same track when she was young. Well, it wasn't all that difficult because... In truth, what little child does not love a good magic trick once in a while? However, she never got around to learning anything useful since she rather spent her time lying around in Silvermoon, watching the magical brooms dust off the streets than actually learning anything from books or the like. When she grew a bit older, her interests had changed completely and she was more interested in toying around in Eversong than actually spending time in the city with her parents or her younger brother. She started playing rougher games and soon she opened her eyes for fencing - with wooden sticks! Early on in her childhood, however, she discovered that swords simply weren't her thing and she would abandon her daily adventures in the Eversong Woods and went back to staring at floating objects in the city.

To make a long story short; Eyierthis spent most of her childhood trying to understand the principle of magic by watching it in action rather than studying the theory despite having very little interest in it. In truth, there wasn't much that truly caught her interest when she was younger. She pended a lot between different activities depending on what the other children were doing at the time and age, but would quit any new activity rather quickly because she lost interest. Once the enthusiasm died, there wasn't anything to keep her hooked anymore. Not until she was a young teenager did she actually pick up on new interests, much to her parents dismay. They had tried to inspire her into more theoretical studies of magic and the arcane, but since their endeavours failed they had done the same with her brother with much greater success. While they cherished the brother as their follower, Eyierthis instead spent more time around the Farstrider Square and spent her time practicing with various kinds of weapons as a past time. Here, she first came in contact with a few of the Farstriders. She took the step to speak to them and this led eventually to her being recruited into the ranks of the Farstriders once she reached adulthood. Prior to being recruited into the Farstriders, she spent all her free time practicing.

Coming of age, Eyierthis became a Farstrider and spent more and more of her time away from her city of Silvermoon. The games she so briefly had been interested in during her childhood had suddenly become vividly real and it was no longer a wooden sword she held in her hands. Although she was given a sword for use in case she would enter melee combat, she preferred to stick to her bow which she had also been given. Though not quite as proficient as the rest of the Farstriders with the bow, Eyierthis made up for her lack of weapon proficiency with wit and tracking skill. In no way was she particularly skilled at either, but her skill was enough to give her some kind of meaning to the Farstriders. She learned, during her time as a Farstrider, how to handle animals and how to recognize certain types of plants and herbs.

Approximately 20 years after she joined up with the Farstriders, Eyierthis somehow opened her eyes to Bloodthistle. It was easy to find in Eversong and Eyierthis tried smoking it after she was dared to try it by one of her former comrades in the Farstriders. She was hooked immediately, and the abuse was soon a fact. A couple of years later, Eyierthis was no longer allowed to stay a Farstrider and she retired, succumbing even more to her addiction to the drug. As she had nothing to keep her busy during the days anymore, she started exploring the heavier drugs and spent more time in the Murder Row than was healthy for her. At one point she was arrested and held in custody for possession of illegal drugs but managed to get away with only a few years of imprisonment. Since the laws in her native city were too strict to allow her to sate her addiction to the full extent, she left Quel'thalas and instead sought refuge in the Cartel cities eventually. Although it wasn't completely legal in these areas either, it was much easier to get her hands on heavier drugs here than it would ever have been back in Silvermoon. It was also here that she started drinking. Much and often. It was also around this time that she became a freelancer in order to make enough money to fund her expensive addiction and that she stopped keeping track of her own age. The drugs had a heavy effect on her mind.

Since she was stuck in the Cartel cities, she was never present by the time the Third War crashed upon Silvermoon. She was on her way back, however, but somehow lost herself in Human lands and didn't arrive back in Quel'thalas until a year after the worst part of the Scourge infestation was taken care of. The city was still being rebuilt and she could only offer a hand in making the last adjustments. She spent two years in Silvermoon, lending a hand to the Farstriders in keeping the Scourge at bay around the Dead Scar, before she left and returned to the Cartel cities. There, she contined her work as a freelancer in order to fund her ever so painful addiction. During her time working in the Cartel cities, she started working a lot with a javelin she bought herself. This javelin was the weapon she soon became the most proficient with and, during a trip together with some random colleagues in the Ratchet tavern, the javelin earned a name. Gregory, to be exact. It wasn't Eyierthis' idea, but that was the name that fell upon the item and Eyierthis didn't bother trying to change it.
