    Language of Fauna

    Rupees: 5

    Height: 4’2”

    Weight: 70lbs

    Equipment: Keera carries with her a carved wooden flute which is thirty centimetres in length. Although not terribly gifted with the instrument, she plays it to calm her nerves and in more uncommon instances uses it at a baton to defend herself, albeit poorly. She also wears a light leather belt with bands to which she can attach potions or bottles, along with a slot for her flute.

    Appearance: Keera’s looks are fairly ordinary, her only outstanding feature being her long, hazel hair which naturally curls at the end, stopping at her lower back. She keeps her fringe short so it rests lightly on her forehead, while a green hairband keeps the rest of it in place. Due to the way it curls, Keera’s hair bounces when she runs or strides. Her eyes are an innocent blue while her face is soft. Her ears are close to her head, and are perfect for Keera to tuck her hair behind.

    On her body Keera wears a sleeveless grass-green dress with an unbuttoned white cotton cardigan. Her belt fastens the dress to her mid-section while the bottom of the dress flows around her knees. On her feet Keera wears simple leather boots with plush tops that hug the bottom of her lower legs. She also sports two wooden bands that loosely fit her wrists.

    Personality: Keera is quite a solemn girl, who usually observes before she acts. She is initially wary around strangers, but quickly finds herself trusting those who choose to spend time with her. Although she is generally reserved, she retains the mind of a child when faced with new experiences; Keera can become quite excitable, sometimes to the point of ignoring danger. This is quite a frequent occurrence, seeing as Keera has spent all of her life in the Kokiri Forest. Keera will bestow kindness on anyone who appears less fortunate than she, or those in danger if it’s within her power. She is slightly squeamish, but is quickly coming to terms with this issue.

    Residence: Keera lives in a hovel at the bottom of a tree, a wooden bridge allowing access across a small stream that surrounds her home. Along the outside of the tree are steps that allow dwellers to access the two upper levels of the tree. Keera’s home consists of one room. A sleeping area is carved from the wall, while a small ladder opposite leads to a small alcove of shelves where Keera stores all of her things. A simple table stays beside her sleeping area with a chair tucked underneath and several potted plants sitting atop it.

    Pet: Keera’s Fairy, Melda is quite a lively individual. Her body glows with a light green, turning a deeper emerald green when she becomes frustrated or senses danger and a brighter shade closer to white when she’s excited. Melda very much acts as Keera’s motivator, pushing her to get involved in situations that she shies away from, which Melda knows will do her good. She’s also very protective, and will even fly into Keera’s chest or face in an attempt to move her away from dangerous foes.

    Backstory:
    Keera was brought into existence a while before Ganon’s occupation of Death Mountain, but her life before the impending threat of danger seems long gone. Keera was unaware of her dormant abilities until fairly recently. Often her friends would return from wandering the woods with news of locating an injured traveller. Not only was this distressing, but also a terrifying reminder that the Kokiri Forest was not impregnable to the dangers that the rest of Hyrule faced.

    Keera never truly understood how frightening the ordeal could be until she came across a badly wounded Hylian Soldier lying in a glade. His armour had been ripped to shreds and his breathing was ragged. Keera began to approach, but a timely chime from her fairy kept her hidden. As she pressed herself against a tree, a Moblin prowled around the area, responding to her sudden movements as she held her breath and her fairy huddled close to her chest. Taking one last look at its handiwork, the Moblin chuckled to itself and wandered off into the thickets.

    Once her fairy allowed her to leave their hiding place, Keera slowly approached the injured guard. He was still conscious, and it seemed as though he would live; he had just been beaten up quite severely. Keera had never seen such serious injuries, and a deep sadness gripped her. She allowed her trembling hands to rest on the guard’s exposed chest as a gentle tear slid down her cheek. The sadness seemed to evolve into something else, and Keera found her hands glowing. Before her eyes the guards wounds were sewn up with rapidly regrown skin and his breathing came easier. When a weariness overcame Keera, she withdrew herself to slump into her knees which were already planted on the forest floor. The guard thanked her from the bottom of his heart, sealing his gratitude by giving her a strange wooden flute. Her friends always crafted their own flutes, but this one was longer, intricately carved and of a strange white wood.

    As the guard got to his feet and was directed back to the plains by Keera, they waved fondly at eachother, leaving Keera to contemplate her newfound power. When she returned to the village and told her friends, they congratulated her; The emergence of magic was always a cause for celebration among the Kokiri. Whenever an injured traveller was located in the woods, Keera was brought to them so that she could heal their wounds, and in the process became something of a widely-known healer in her community. Pleased that she could offer relief to the injured, Keera made sure that she practised her power so that she would always be ready to assist those who needed her.

    I like it! I haven't seen many healers so its really awesome that that is the route you are going with it!

    As for the backstory, while there are some random moblins and other monsters in the forest, the armies of Ganon have given up on trying to take it over. Though I'm sure you kept this in mind, its totally fine that there was an injured Hylian in the forest, but I just want to make sure you don't roleplay a massive army attacking Kokiri Forest haha. Anyway, great character! Have fun roleplaying!

    Accepted.
