Personal Record

Personality: Mercurial. She's odd even for a Secrets, spending weeks as a social butterfly and then months as a complete hermit. When caught on a good day, she's observant, dry-witted, and reasonably amiable. Most of the other Oracles agree that something is definitely off, though.

Appearance: She might be pretty if she didn't usually look drawn and haggard, like she doesn't sleep enough. Vivid green eyes, curly (more like frizzy) hair a faded red color, usually pulled in a loose ponytail. Wears a light coat over a corset top and tunic beneath that, fitted leathers, knee-high lace-up boots. Very simple, very innocuous.

History: (tomorrow because I'm exhausted.)
