OOC: INFOPOST! Version "Am I Overlapping With the New Kids' Establishy Posts Yet?"

Firekeeper:

- Was raised by wolves. Yes, literally. This means she can speak to beasts of all kinds. I usually use italics to denote when this is happening, following the convention in the books, but radio squirrels are completely welcome to understand what's being said since, well. Squirrels are beasts!
- Is probably about 18. Nobody knows for sure, but her friend Doc guessed her age to be about 14 when she first came to live with humans.
- Has unique grammar. She'll try and speak 'properly' if someone has difficulty understanding her, but otherwise will use the least amount of effort/words possible to get her point across.
- Will introduce herself as "Blysse" (the name given to her by the human family that officially adopted her) but in narrative will use the name "Firekeeper", which she considers her true name. I apologize in advance for any confusion this may cause!
- Does not wear shoes, except during winter when she'll concede that boots are superior to getting frostbite on her feet.
- Is rather pale, and possesses a multitude of scars across her arms/legs. Product of growing up in the wild.
- Does not have superhuman senses, but has trained these to the best of human ability. Her sense of smell and hearing, especially, are a lot keener than your average teenager's- mostly because she's been trained in how to recognize things like what fear smells like.
- Is a lot stronger than she looks.
- Is only allowed to kill bandits and not, say, roommates or pet cats. Is glad her roommate seems to finally believe this.
- Still doesn't entirely trust magic, but has learned to acknowledge its usefulness, as well as trust a few individual magic users.
- Is usually accompanied by a very large, blue-eyed wolf named Blind Seer, who gets his own bullet points.

Blind Seer:

- Is huge. Not as large as Jacob, but easily twice as large as your average wolf. Or half-wolf (Sorry Diefenbaker!).
- Has blue eyes. This is how he got his name; puppies are born blue-eyed and blind, and as they mature their eyes change to the more common amber. Blind Seer's eyes never changed, but he can see perfectly well.
- Is extremely intelligent. He understands everything you say to/around him, and can even read a few simple words/phrases.
- Has a wolf's sense of smell, which is better than yours. Yes, yours. ...Well, okay, no, probably not yours, Angua. If your character is quietly bleeding out but attempting to conceal it? He can tell. If your character is scared/ecstatic/lying? He can also tell. If there's anything you ever don't want him to notice, ping me and we'll figure something out.
- Is a sorceror and also in complete denial about this. Like, denial so heavy that if you're inclined to sense magic, you probably won't. This may change at some point in the future.
