Elodie

She took over after her father retired, boiling maple syrup in spring and running guest accommodations in winter. Her long golden-brown hair is always braided into one thick plait. She has hazel eyes, freckles on her nose, and a sturdy, curvy build, strong enough to carry a barrel of sap alone. She plays the accordion and sings old folk songs to the pot during the nights she spends boiling syrup.

Personality. Cheerful, considerate, and a bit scatterbrained. She cares for people as naturally as she would her own dogs and horses. She blushes easily; when complimented, she says "Stop it," then laughs for ages. Used to living alone in the mountains, she is intensely curious about people from the city. Her speech has a strong rural accent, favoring country expressions.
