Crystin "Tar" Varilde

Name: Crystin Varilde (sounds like ... Kris-tin ... )
Nicknames/Aliases: Tar (what the pirates call her and the only name she knows ... ); Crys (sounds like ... Kris)
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Species: Wild Mountain Hare, lately of Salamandastron
Occupation: Currently, escaping oar slave. Other than that, she has no idea.

Physical Appearance:

General--Crys is a tall adolescent hare, but the less than better treatment she gets from her slavers doesn't help. Her patchwork fur, is a mixed blend of gold, cream, silver, black, tan, red, and the like, all looking like they have been"sun touched" giving them a shimmery touch.

Her underbelly fur is a solid tan, but all of her fur hangs stiffly to her thinned frame and gives the fur an even more molted look. Her nose and inner ears are pink, to clash with her fur colors.

Crystin's eyes are a stunning blue. They contain a rage behind them. A rage of being held captive for so long. A rage against her slavers. A rage for blood.

Her fur is covered in scar tissue form scars that would never heal properly. Many riddle across her body, but most of the collection lie upon her back form where she was whipped almost to death.

Crys's paws are large and well-worn from living in the slave galley and pumping oars day and night. Her form is very thin and all muscle from all the fat wearing away. Her face almost looks sunken in form the lack of nutrition. Her left ear also has a deep chink taken out of it, as the slavers thought it would make a nice trademark in case she decided to run away.

Attire--Crystin wears a large gray smock and black platoons. The clothing is all very big for her. Her slavers weren't exactly looking for a size match when they found some garments for her. The garments have large tears in them from when Crys was beaten, along with many blood satins and dirt marks. She can't remember on of the last times she had a bath. She also had the chains that bind her to the bench upon her wrists.

Possessions:

Crys doesn't have any possessions that she knows of. If she ever did, the slavers have them and she doesn't want anything that had their grimy paws all over it. The only things she has are the clothing upon her back, the chains on her paws, the little knife she stole that she is planning to escape with, and the thirst for her enemy's blood.

Personality:

Crystin is not a happy-chipper-go lucky hare. Frankly she hasn't had the time. Or so she can remember. Her personality is cold and hard and her first reactions are always brash and reckless. All she can remember is pain and anger so that's what she gives out.

Truthfully, deep down inside, Crys feels broken apart. She can barely remember a happy life. She knew he had one, but that's as much as she knows. And something inside her longs for that life. She feels half there, like half of herself is somewhere else. When ever she gets precious alone time, she cries her soul out. Some might call her Bi-polar, others, stubborn. To tell the truth, she's both.

If Crys had known about her mother, than she would have known where her bloodwrath came from. She doesn't quite know that it's bloodwrath either. All she knows is that when her tormentors push her too far, her sight becomes clouded in a red mist and she loses control of herself. Often, not remembering what happened after it ends.

Strengths:

Crys is a born warrior. With her bloodwrath rages and her up bringing in a slave galley, fighting is the only thing she knows. What ever weapon you throw at her she can wield with deadly precision, but true to the family tradition she is also an expert boxer.

She is also very crafty, always plotting. Either plotting her escape, her enemy's down fall, or whatever. Crys also has a very sharp wit. She is always winning arguments and insults roll off the tip of her tongue like natural speak.

Weaknesses:

Although Crys appears strong and reckless on the outside. Deep down, she suffers form emotional problems. She is what some people call bi-polar. She maybe mad enough to kill one minute, but when left alone, she can't control her emotions.

The effects of her bloodwrath pall quite a toll on her physically. Once the bloodwrath fades, Crys often passes out for a good few minutes if not longer.

Crys also doesn't trust people easily, being head hard stubborn. It takes time to build trusting relationships with her and they can break at the simple slip of a tongue.

History/Background:

Crystin Varilde was the younger twin daughter born to Major William ‘Wontap‘ Barr Varilde and Captain ‘Wild’ Amber Varilde. Crys can never remember her mother, who died when she was four, so talking about her never really fazed any deep emotions in her.

So Crys grew up with her twin sister as two tom-boys, trying to fit in with their brothers and father. Crys always liked competing with her siblings, it gave her an adrenalin rush that almost helped calm down her Bi-polar attitude. She especially liked hanging out with Eastpaw and Southpaw. (along with her sister, you could never separate the two. Sometimes they would impersonate each other just to mess with other creatures.)Some how, Eastpaw and her got along extremely well.

Many times, the family would be sent by the Badger Lord to have a "vacation" from the mountain life. Crys found them as a great time to play and mess around with her twin and brothers. It was on one of those "vacations" that a giant storm arouse while the family was on a traveling ship.

The great storm didn't scare Crystin, in fact, it sparked her curiosity. Going against her father's orders, Crystin scrambled out on to the deck. Every time the lighting flashed, Crys thought she saw a ship off of the portbow, but no other beast saw it, only she did. Eastpaw shouted at her to get back below deck, but Crys could not hear him over the storm.

As the boat rocked back and forth, Crys turned around to see her father with a rope telling her to get below. She tried to tell him of the ship, but before she could a large wave whipped over the side of the vessel, completely knocking both Crys and her father overboard.

The last thing Crys saw before she was swept over the side of the ship was Eastpaw's face, he was crying, his eyes as red as blood. After that, Crys blacked out, and all memories lost.

Crystin doesn't remember much of her past life after the accident. In her dreams she remembers a warm home, a mountain, other hares, maybe a family? She doesn't know. Bits and pieces of her memories still live in Crystin, but they only come in flashes of dreams. What they were, she may never remember.

All Crystin knows is that at the age of 13 she was picked up by vermin slavers and chained an oarbench. A knock on the head took all the memories she once cherished are gone. She only knew the name that the vermin called her, Tar, nothing more. Form then on she has lived her life in pain and alone. She knows know one and no one cares about her.

Day after day, "Tar" was beaten and pushed to her limit of life in an effort to break her. But she would not back down! Nothing would make her break, for there was nothing to break. She felt like she had no life to save, so she didn't care how much the vermin beat her, she would always come back for them. She woulds kill them, with her bare paws!

Just recently Tar has been able to steal a little knife to aid her in her escape plot. Many a time she tried to escape and was beaten back. Then punished severely for it. But this time would be different, Tar kept telling herself. She would make it! She would find that place of her dreams, she would find that home that she never had. And if it's not there, she shall kill who ever took it away!
