__________________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description A tall, strong woman with coal colored eyes and dark red hair worn long and normally kept in a braid. Freckles scatter recklessly across the tanned skin of her curvy body, which is normally bond back in tough leathers due to her life style. She never wears dresses, as they are impractical to her life style.

She's rather plain, never once had the need nor desire to make herself 'pretty'. And she has several scars, one across her bottom lip, another, smaller one that sits high across her cheeks, and a few others on her elbows, knees, legs, and the sort from years of labor.

Personality Very practical and resourceful. She's no nonsense because she hasn't got time for much else. It's not that she hasn't much a sense a humor, it's just she's more adept at living on her own and talks more so to the animals on her farm than to men that might live nearby. Also, because she grew up somewhat isolated from the majority of her home town, she never much had a yearning to be social. In fact, she can't handle being too social for long and her conversations with anyone tend to be brief at best.

Magic/Abilities
Sharp shooter with a musket- a task that is difficult, but she has become resourceful to the need. She prefers her musket rifle over a bow, just because it gives her a sense of power most others do not posses (for not many in her position (which is no position at all)) tend to have the ability and means to own and maintain a gun.

She knows how to skin an animal and hunt, and will use a cross bow or bow and arrow for this- both of which she has proficient skills with. Being this is most of her livelihood, she's definitely better than most at this as she practices hunting for survival daily.

She knows how to tend a farm, but crops are not her forte. The one time she DID successfully grow some crops, thieves stole ALL of them from her land. She's still pissed about it to this day.

Relationships
All of her known family is dead- except her brother, who may or not be dead. He is in the army.
Temmis Woods- her late father
Grenlay Woods- her late mother
Tulle Woods- her brother

History
Her father was a gunsmith, who had married late and had children late. She has an older brother in the army, one who may as well be dead for all she knows about it. Then there was her. She and her brother were born five years apart. Her mother died when she was young, only three years old and that left her and her older brother to raise her. Her father, being older, wasn't in any condition to join the army, but with the war threat growing ever closer to their home, he found much use for his gunsmith talents- until rebels blew off his head and robbed his place.

Shay keeps what is left of her father's practice, and carries with her the knowledge he had passed down. As a woman,s he's not outwardly allowed to practice gunsmithing, however, she does it anyway- but just for herself. she lives out int he woods, in a small place she bought wiht what little money she had. Her cabin is crude, built by her own hands, as it the farm she tends to. The soil is a bit rocky, but it gives her enough from it. The rest she gets from her animals- a fat cow named Glenda, two ornery goats - Nettie and Zed; and her mutt of a dog named Yellow, who is always at her side.

Yellow helps her with animal traps when she travels through the woods, and helps her keep some of her live stock in check. Though she had more animals earlier on, because of the war, a lot of people have since stolen from her, taking 3 of her 4 cows and all of her chickens and sheep. She wasn't left with much, but what she does have, she's now set to defend with all fo the ammo she can stock from her father's inventory.

She's tired of the war, both sides, as it was soldiers AND rebels alike that had taken frmo her, stolen from her land and seem set to wreck her life. Last few that did trespass on her land and didn't listen to her warnings-
she shot them in the head, and buried the body down by the river.
