"I don’t have a short temper; I just have a quick reaction time to bullshit.." Breanna
Since coming to LakeTown plenty has happened to Breanna, she's gotten into a few fights, came close to dying perhaps once, and then was accused of being a witch. In the end she has not been able to work as she needed, the money has not been gathered to repay the debt that is owed and it is forever in the back of her mind that she has let her father down. Her path is changing, leading her back to the Temple, which her mother would be thrilled with if she was still alive. At the moment she is healing from her last encounter with a rather overzealous Chosen who felt she was a witch. She fears what has happened to her father, and when able will go and find her answer.
Breanna grew up in the forests of Rhaedan, her father Rhaedan born and mother Taniford born, yet the two still managed to have a life and family with one another no matter how their parents felt over such matters. Time passes, children grown, people die, and in the end Breanna has managed to survive, living off the land a good amount of the time, and with her sharp wits and skills to help her earn a few coins along the way.
Born from parents that met under strange reasons, her mother from Taniford and father from Rhaedan which brings plenty of confusion if it is ever brought up. Still Breanna family took it in stride, her parents married, three older siblings and two younger to prove that even if they come from both sides the pair seemed to have a great love for one another. While Breanna’s mother was from Taniford the family lived in the forests of the North, thanks to her father’s job as a woodman. Her mother was a natural woman of the plants, they seemed to love her attention and even in the cold forest she could make just about anything grow and often things that was useful for everyday life. Her father spent most of his time to his job, hunting, tracking and anything to help bring extra money in for the family.
Breanna being the fourth child of the family was destined to follow in her mother’s footsteps as she was the first daughter, though more times she would be found following her elder brothers and father off into the forest to listen and learn, and thus be deemed a tomboy of sorts if there ever was one. Still her mother’s schooling's showed through as she would have it no other way. Breanna was taught how to read and write, learned good plants from bad and what could be done with them, be it from cooking to helping with a sickness or injury. Her father was against teaching her his trade at first, but after plenty of begging, pleading and a father’s love for his daughter he finally began to teach her as well. Breanna learned how to track, make snare traps, hunt, fish, skinning an animal and above all use weapons. She is close to an expert with a bow, and just as well with a dagger or long knife. Her teachings also included how to train animals, be those horses or canines to help in her works. A horse is helpful when wanting to travel for long distances, and canines help with tracking along with offering her some protection if she was to be on her own.
When Breanna was ten her mother grew ill, after some time she was bed ridden, no matter the herbs, no matter what the healers said and offered it was not enough to save her. Her mother hung on until Breanna was eleven and then died one cold fall morning. It was a hard blow to Breanna’s father and even harder to her younger siblings. Through hard work, and wanting to keep the family together they managed to make it work through the winter. Come spring her father did something he never thought of and took his youngest a pair of twins to his dead wife’s family to ask for help. Breanna’s grandparents took her siblings in, but said they would help no more, and pointedly refused to let Breanna stay as she looked more like a Rhaedan. Her grandparents had a hatred towards her father for ‘taking’ there daughter from them, and all they could see in Breanna was the hatred they had for her father. Breanna didn’t take it very well, she didn’t understand what was wrong with her and why her grandparents felt the way they did. She didn’t want to leave her father and home in the forest so in the end it worked out, she was allowed to stay and helped her father and older brothers while also tending to the garden her mother left behind and the small families home.
Time passes for all, some slow some fast. Breanna’s brothers all moved along, finding good women to marry while she was left to keep her father in one piece. There were plenty of suitors that came to try and win her affections but it never worked out well in the end for them, Breeana is not one that can be wooed so easily. With her father aging, and dealing with many injuries he obtained from his job it is left on Breanna to find a means to live for them both, with her brother’s checking in from time to time. Breanna often wanders far with her horse and set of canine’s to tend to her job as a woodswoman, ranger, scout which ever title that best suit her position at the time. Though lately she has picked up jobs on tracking people that one may be searching for, her tracking skills are good so she finds a way to use them if at all possible, plus a little extra coin is never a bad thing. She moves from town to town selling what she has, offering a hand to anyone that may be having a problem with certain animals attacking their flocks, or perhaps to help search for a missing person, or someone trying to escape the law. If there is a job and she thinks she could make some money from it she will offer up her services.

Character Profile
"quote goes here- name of person who made quote goes here
The form before you is that of a young woman, age is somewhere within her early twenties if anyone was to guess. Her hair is dark brown with faint red highlights throughout it, length rests down about her shoulders and it holds a fair bit of lose wavy curls. Eyes are pale ice blue and have an almost eerie look too them at times.
She stands about 5'6, a slender tall form with both muscle and curves found, though neither overly so. Her skin holds a slight bit of color to it, normally olive toned with a bit of honey like tan as if she has spent a fair amount of time out side, which may explain why she is stronger than she looks thanks to plenty of hard work. Clothing wise a long sleeved white shirt rests under a short sleeved dark green tunic, a brown deer hide vest over the tunic that buttons closed with three wooden buttons, a faint bit of light gray fur around the neck line, around her waist is a thick black leather belt while dark brown leather breeches rest upon her lower half, study boots upon her feet.
A leather cloak is often found with her to help with the elements that she may encounter. She carries with her a long bow that is often always at her side along with a quiver full of arrows upon her back. At times a faint glint of metal perhaps seen thanks to a set of daggers at her hip, though knowing her she has other things well hidden. Her jewelry is simple, a silver torque rests around her neck, the ends having horse heads, while upon her right wrist is a smaller one that wraps around her wrist twice, the ends wolves heads, at her left forearm is a dark brown leather bracer.
Breanna is a quiet individual, she has reasons for this like anyone else. While she won't tend to snub anyone, one should not expect an in-depth conversation with her, at least when she first meets a person. She has reasons to be wary of ones she meets, though it depends on the situation at hand as well. If one is looking for a short temper, and one that is eager to anger they would not have to look to far past Breanna, though at the same time the ones that do come to call her friend get one that is willing to do just about anything to help said friend. She's also been known to put her own neck on the line in order to help someone, especially if it seems to be someone that is in dire need of said help. Her animals mean the world to her, she travels with a pair of wolves, a horse and at times a hawk, if anyone was to try and harm her 'friends' they would see a different side of Breanna, one that would make it a point that person that did the harming got just as much harm done to them if she was able to reach said person. In other words she is indeed a Ranger through and through.
