Sorrl Pineflight

[Sorrl]

Name: Sorrl Pineflight
Nicknames/Aliases: Does "young rip!" count?
Gender: Male
Age: 14
Species: Grey fox squirrel
Occupation: Troublemaker, impersonator

Physical Appearance:

General--
Sorrl's fur is a slightly spiky grey-white with a red-tan underbelly that matches the color of his ears and the underfur of his tail. His build is healthy and wiry, built for running and climbing. His face is remarkably similar to his sister's, with its delicate brown nose and deep amber eyes. His ears, however, are slightly larger than his sister's.

Attire--
A traditional green abbey habit, although it is rather worse for the wear, what with all of his trouble making. His habit is girdled by a light tan canvas sling and a pouch of pebbles. He never wears sandals, preferring to go bare-pawed, in case he needs to do some climbing in a quick getaway.

Possessions:

Sorrl wears a brightly dyed woven rush paw ring on his left arm, along with his canvas sling around his waist. He carries a pouch of smooth pond stones for slinging in his pocket .

Personality:

Sorrl is an energetic young trouble maker. He enjoys stealing scones and pasties from the kitchen, encouraging dibuns to run rampant, and causing general chaos and mayhem. As one might expect, Sorrl doesn't have the most level head, and is extremely impulsive. His favorite hobby is climbing, although eating comes in a very close second. While he seems to prefer terrorizing the abbey instead of protecting it, like his sister he carries a deep love for the abbey and those who dwell in it. He just has a different way of showing it!

Strengths:

Sorrl has an incredibly accurate shot with just about any projectile weapon, although he prefers a sling to anything else. He is also a terrific actor and impersonator, capable of imitating other people's voices to an uncanny similarity.

Weaknesses:

As stated earlier, Sorrl is extremely impulsive, and liable to get in heaps of trouble because of it. He also is very squeamish, and generally faints at the sight of blood.

History/Background:

Being one of the dwindling members of the Pineflight clan, Sorrl and his sister grew up in a wandering home, never in one place long. During his younger years he would spend his days romping through the forest, climbing trees and looking for trouble, and spend the night eating up stories about the legendary heroes of old. It was an idyllic life, and he enjoyed it very much. However, when he was ten, he noticed his sister wasn't taking to the idyllic life as well as he was. Being the good brother he was, he started cheering her up the best way he knew--causing trouble. This entertained him tremendously, and it seemed to help his sister, as well. Unfortunately, their father wasn't as entertained with their antics, and taught Asterfall how to whittle to keep out of trouble. This did seem to help her restlessness, but it was much less interesting than causing mayhem. Even this relative calm wasn't to last, however. During a visit to their relatives, part of the clan caught a dreadful fever. His father was one of them. Unable to find a cure, the Pineflight twins and their mother were forced to watch as their father wasted away. Devastated by the loss, the small family began moving with increased fervor, trying to forget about the death. This continued until they found an asylum-- Redwall Abbey. Trestar, their mother, and Sorrl took to the abbey immediately, recovering quickly from their loss. Asterfall took it harder, and didn't want to settle down. Both her mother and her brother tried to comfort her the best ways the knew. Her mother gave her a small pendant, and Sorrl encouraged her to make trouble. Both credit themselves for making the change that made Aster want to stay.

Relationships:

• Trestar Pineflight--mother
  
• Asterfall Pineflight--twin sister
