_______IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description:
Hoss Goodheart is a muscular girl in her mid-teens. She has sky-blue eyes, and a button nose. Her orange hair is impossible to tame, and she normally wears it pulled back in a messy braid. Her skin is covered in tattoos depicting mundane objects, and from a distance it looks like her entire body has been dyed blue. She wears less armor than your average adventurer would, instead opting to wear a cloth binder and the pelt of a bear she's slain. Hoss has no bags, satchels, or pockets- she doesn't need any.

Hoss smells like a teenager who hasn't bathed in a week (because she probably hasn't, let's be honest).

Personality:
Hoss is everything you'd expect a teenage adventurer to be- stubborn, impulsive, and just a little annoying. She is brash and insensitive, and gets very defensive when called out on it. The girl isn't particularly smart, and large words and complex ideas tend to fly over her head. Hoss's biggest pet peeve is being upstaged, and if she thinks you're trying to steal her thunder she'll get passive agressive.

Hoss is obsessed with self-improvement- a trait born out of a vague desire to be "the best". No matter how good she is at something, she'll refuse to acknowledge her accomplishments and instead push herself to do even better next next time! How she manages to not burn herself out doing this is a mystery.

Hoss hates the name Anne-Marie because, according to her, "it sounds girly". She goes by "Hoss" because she thinks it sounds cooler.

Relationships:
Hoss has a mother, father, and older brother living in Whitesands. They have all been very supportive of her choice to become an adventurer.

Hoss lost a fight to a turquoise dragon about two years ago. Said dragon has since disappeared into the annals of history, but that hasn't stopped Hoss from searching for it...

Magic/Abilities:
Hoss has the ability to store non-magical items inside her body as tattoos. These items will keep their properties while being stored- a candle will stay lit, and food will stay warm.

The curse that gave Hoss this power gave her a weakness as well- her natural weakness to iron is tripled. She cannot touch even trace amounts without suffering from burns and nausea.

Hoss's weapon of choice is a two-handed bronze battleaxe that she uses one-handed- she thinks its badass! Her opponents think it's dumb (and they're right). She's not terrible with it though, and the unconventional use of her weapon does serve to catch people off guard.

History:
Hoss grew up in Whitesands with her parents and older brother. Her childhood was boring, and she spent all of her free time reading fairy tales and adventurer stories. The idealistic young girl romanticized the idea of becoming a hero herself, and when she was fourteen she bought a battleaxe with her birthday money and struck off on her own adventure!

While she had a few early successes defeating bandits and muggers, it only took a few months for Hoss to taste utter defeat. A dragon decided to destroy the village Hoss had been staying in, and Hoss tried to stop her. Needless to say, Hoss failed to defeat the dragon and was barely able to escape with her life. There were no other survivors, and Hoss had no choice but to blame herself for their deaths. Filled with a new determination, she vowed to become stronger- no matter the cost.

In her search for power, she heard tales of a fae in the Draconi Forest who had taken to tricking adventurers by giving them magic powers with severe drawbacks. Deciding that whatever drawback she received would be worth whatever power she got, Hoss found the fae in question and let herself get cursed.
