Name: Crissrea Monterien Fonsworthy
Gender: Female
Age: 23
Species: Hare
Occupation: Wandering member of the Long Patrol
Physical Description:
Complexion: A fine specimen of a hare, Criss has sandy colored fur with a lighter patch on her front that runs from her jaw to her feet. Her ears are a tad darker in tone, as is her bob tail.
Build: Long ears that are typically swept back sit atop of a graceful skull. Everything about Criss screams grace, right down to her willowy build.
Clothing: Criss typically wears a sandy colored tunic with a woven belt and little more. She also has a wooden carved pawband that is wrapped around her wrist.
Personal Traits: Crissrea has a number of small scars on her hands, remnants of practicing with her father using real blades.
Belongings:
Her saber, which rests over her shoulders, is one of two prized possessions Crissrea has. It was made by a badger lord for her grandfather, and has a wave pattern in the metal where it was folded, a black grip, a basket hilt, and a matching scabbard. Her pawband was carved by her father for her out of a light piece of willow and has a carving of a hare in full sprint upon it. She also has a sling and stones, as well as a (usually) empty haversack.
Personality:
Criss has a love for adventure. Ever since her father began telling her stories of his days as a Long Patrol scout, she dreamed of becoming a member of the Long Patrol. Part of Criss knew that she could never settle down, though, because she is a traveler by nature. The only bad part about being a traveler is that Criss hates to go without food and has an appetite to rival any hare's. Crissrea is also hopelessly romantic, and has a habit of composing love ballads, not all of them bad. She has a mean streak, though, when it comes to any of the males making passes at her. Criss has decided long ago that she would choose her mate, not the other way around.
Strengths:
Criss is an expert fighter with her saber, is an excellent woodsbeast, and can sing like a songbird.
Weaknesses:
Criss has a hatred for killing outright, is a bottomless feedbag, and can sometimes be so caught up in her own romantic notions that she puts herself at risk for capture.
History:
Crissrea Monterien Fonsworthy, called Criss or Crissy by her friends, grew up in the home of a former Long Patrol Colonel, Gerryold Fitspatrick Fonsworthy. The old Colonel taught her everything he knew, mainly because he never had a son with his wife, who died in battle only a few seasons after Criss was born. Being raised with stories of battle, glory, and adventure, it was natural that Criss would want to travel as well and become a member of the famed Long Patrol. She learned swordsmanship and tracking from her father, as well as battle tactics and the like. Criss was also introduced to beginning healing by a molewife who lived nearby, giving her an advantage on a long trek. So, with all this learning behind her, at the tender age of 16, she traveled to Salamandastron.
The trip was not nearly as smooth as she had hoped it would go. There were swamplands, tree groves, enemies, and very few creatures willing to help her along. After a few months of nearly starving, she finally got in stride with the forests. By the time that happened, the sand dunes appeared, then finally Salamandastron.
It took longer than criss originally expected, but she made it and immediately began her duties. In the years that she was a member, she received two promotions, making her a Lance Corporal. She stuck with that rank, not wanting to become an officer of any standing. Instead, she traveled to find other hares or creatures who had the talent to become members of the Long Patrol. Having learned and applied the abilities of a woodsbeast, she did not want to sit in one place for so long and soon got the itch to travel. That, plus she was just tired of all the young male hares making passes at her. So, after seeking special approval to go on a personal quest, she traveled into Mossflower Woods to finish something her father asked her to do before she left home.
Criss is currently taking a break from traveling and is back at Salamandastron, awaiting her next assignment.
Relationships:
Father, Colonel Gerryold Fitspatrick Fonsworthy

Duty is Crissy's life. She will fulfill her duties before any pleasures. Aside from eating, of course.
