Name: Korina Race: Kokiri Age: Unknown, appears 12 Gender: Female Place of Origin: Kokiri Forest PWC: 3/2/4 Treasures Racial Perk: Eternal Youth Racial Perk: Fairy Companion Racial Perk: Navigation Racial Perk: Language of Fauna Loftwing Sense Spark Rupees: 0 Companions: Fairy: Viorla is a dark blue fairy that accompanies Korina on her travels. Ever since the Kokiri was born, she has always been the annoying voice in her ear. Very protective of her friend, she always attempts to talk Korina out of doing her stupid stunts, and desperately tried to talk Korina out of leaving the forest. She cares heavily for Korina's safety, and will do her best to protect her closest friend. That said, Viorla is rather cowardly. The sight of any monster will almost always cause her to faint. Even sudden surprises can cause the same effect. The poor fairy doesn't have the guts to handle combat at all, and must hide in Korina's pack before it starts, less she turns into a crying mess. After every fight, Korina has to comfort the fairy, that everything is alright. Being cowardly makes her job as her protector rather difficult. Loftwing: Ezio is a very special loftwing. Special in the fact that he is smaller than most of his kind. As he grew older, he never got much larger. He often had trouble keeping up with the rest of his flock. While small, he is quite nimble, which makes up for his lack of speed. The Loftwing has a white belly, with a dark blue tuft on his chest. His back and head are covered in light blue feathers, with white along the edges of his wings. the very tips of his tail and wings are covered in two tones of dark blue, with the darker blue being on the outer most edges. His eyes are a bright yellow, and seem to have an obvious intelligence to them. Ezio is very cocky, and loves to show off. Away from his flock, the constant compliments and admiration from Korina never ceases to fuel his ego. Always showing off, he loves attention, and does all he can to receive it. He and Viorla tend to not get along too well. Even though Korina has to middleman between the two of them for them even to talk, the cocky loftwing will often times get tired of the tiny fairy's nagging. Korina is the only reason the two of them associate at all. Equipment: Korina carries many bags and pouches that hang on her person. A small backpack sits upon her back carrying her few belongings. Cloth pouches hang on her belt, containing some of her more used belongings, such as rupees and seeds for her slingshot. None of this too heavy for her, as she rarely carries anything in her pack besides food. Korina carries little weaponry, and none too effective in full on combat. She carries two large daggers that are stored in leather sheaths this sit between Korina's pack and her back.. These daggers are called swords, and Korina will argue this fact until she is blue in the face. She found these 'swords' on a body right outside the woods, and jury rigged the sheaths to fit her. She also carries a slingshot that sits tucked right into her belt. She rarely uses this for actual combat purposes. More often, Korina can be found using the slingshot to annoy or confuse people. The slingshot is made from old wood found in the Kokiri Forest. Almost all the Kokiri unlucky enough to live near her had to deal with the annoying seeds seemingly shot from nowhere, before the laughter gave her away, that is. Appearance: Korina has bright red hair that is tied back into a rather long ponytail that is tied back by a piece of white cloth. The Kokiri's skin is quite pale, but speckled with a few freckles across her cheeks. Her eyes are bright blue coloration, and never seem to stop moving or staring at something. The Kokiri's face is actually rather skinny, paired with her flat jaw and high cheekbones give her an interesting appearance. She doesn't care much for appearances, so quite often Korina can be found covered in dirt or stains. It takes Viorla's constant nagging for Korina to even attempt to clean her clothing or even herself. There is only two reasons why Korina would even consider cleaning up. One, to impress someone she thinks highly of, or two, to trick somebody. Personality: Korina is something of a trouble maker, ever since any of her fellow Kokiri. Always playing simple harmless pranks on them, or talking about leaving the forest and running away to be a hero. She loves fun and adventure, and will always jump to do something new and exciting, just for the experience. Her love of adventure is almost insane, and she plans on traveling to the ends of Hyrule and beyond someday. However, Hyrule has a ton of adventures for her, so she stays. Excitable to the extreme, it's advised not to give her any excuse to get excited, as she won't stop talking for hours. Days even if it's something she really enjoys. Whether Korina is brave, or just plain stubborn, is something even Viorla, her fairy, doesn't quite know. Always jumping into trouble like it was her job, she always finds someway to get into dangerous situations. The only thing that gets her out of many of her issues is her quick wit, and her silver tongue. Able to talk her way out of many situations, or even play the innocent child card, she gets out, almost scott free every time. While Korina might be rather intelligent, she doesn't always seem so. She learns better from more hands on experience. As in, someone could tell her a certain plant would give her a rash, but she wouldn't really learn that it does so, until after she got the rash. However, she rarely ever forgets her survival skills she trained herself to use. Not learning her skills from any book, experience has told her what plants are okay to eat, what ones will make you sick, and which ones will plain out kill you. She takes great pride on her intelligence on nature. Background: From the earliest Korina could remember, she had always had Viorla at her side. Or more accurately screaming in her ear, as she was most of the time. The young fairy had always tried to her best to keep Korina out of trouble, but it was never enough. She had messed with her fellow Kokiri too much, and couldn't stand their yelling anymore. Didn't people know a good joke when they saw one? Korina packed her things, it was time to leave the forest, and nothing her fairy said could stop her. It took a while before the Kokiri found the edge of the forest, but what she found the moment she left surprised her more than anything else she had ever seen within the forest. Right outside, was a flock of loftwings! Apparently taking a break from flying. It didn't matter what the reason was, but Korina was extremely excited, and without caring whether they would enjoy the presence of an annoying child. It turned out that most of the Loftwings didn't really care that she had turned up. The few she did communicate with tolerated her enough. They told her what their name was, where they were going, how strong the wind was up high. Mostly basic stuff for intelligent birds, but these birds were so much more intelligent than any she had ever seen before! It blew her mind, and she spent the rest of the day with the group of Loftwings. However, when the large birds were about to leave, she found one not so large. His white and blue body walked in front of her, and she immediately knew she had to talk to the Loftwing. Perhaps it was a child? However, she immediately learned that Ezio, as what he had called himself, was not anywhere close to being a child, and was actually insulted. It took a short while before it finally accepted her apology and she started to speak. Eventually, Korina ended up telling her entire story to the smaller bird. Why she was leaving, and what she planned to do. She wanted to travel everywhere she could, and explore the world, in all its great wonder, and to her surprise, Ezio's dream was similar. He wanted to leave the flock, and travel places he wasn't supposed to go. But especially being much smaller than the rest of them all, he was constantly holding them back. He expressed his great desire to leave, and Korina almost immediately snapped at the opportunity. No matter how much Viorla argued against it, she invited Ezio to travel with her and her fairy. It took a few minutes to convince him, and his flock started to take flight without him. Eventually however, Ezio agreed. Korina could never have been more delighted, and she immediately tried to discover the basics of flight on a Loftwing. It was more difficult than the two of them had guessed it would be. With him being smaller, and unused to all the extra weight, even if she didn't weigh that much. However, after pretty much an entire day's practice, Ezio got used to the weight, and seemed to fly with almost no trouble at all. Of course, Korina was ecstatic, and Viorla, less so. The three of them were almost inseparable now. Even though Viorla only tolerated Ezio's presence most of the time, they were always around each other. Korina and Ezio flying wherever their hearts desired, and no one could tell them what to do but themselves, and of course, Viorla.
