Description: Though long of limb and tall of height, this golden haired girl with the fierce, cornflower blue eyes will never make pretensions to being the strongest in the field - she's got the toning, the lean build of a mountain cat, not the stocky base of a bear. Her shoulders are too slender for one, coupling with the willowyness of her figure to make for the silhouette of a potentially striking Whisper, not a famous warrior. Her hair is long, oft pulled back into an intricate golden braid. Large blue eyes, a button nose, and a plump pair of lips arching into an elegant Cupid's bow make for a heart-shaped face best suited to the former as well.

Personality: Headstrong, determined, and idealistic. Rona may not be the most prototypical northernwoman, though she does insist on (attempting to) drink and fight with the best of them. She's at war between pleasing her parents and their intended path and living up to her expectations as a Halfshav - that is, ferocious and half-wild.

Background: Perhaps a little odd for some of the more southern houses, Rona fulfilled her birthright as a Halfshav with great enthusiasm - taking to the practice yard, overbundled in padded armor and swinging a wooden sword with glee, she never quite managed to put on the weight to make for a formidable warrior. Unfortunately for her parents, getting bested in the yard never slaked her hunger for battle and encouraged her to embrace other pursuits more heartily. She was a reluctant student at best in other fields, attending her lessons to earn the 'reward' of more time in practice. Even into adulthood she still holds to old tales with a romantic fascination. Enough is enough, though; for her family, their only daughter needs to better develop her other interests (indeed, needs to at least pretend that they are interests), and so to become a better rounded leader, they've sent her to Arx to learn what it means to be properly noble.
