Shoulder-length deep-brown curly hair, usually tied half up; amber eyes; olive skin with sunburn marks; a few freckles across the bridge of her nose; a slim, lithe figure. A scallop shell hangs from her backpack, and a faded red cord is tied around her wrist.

Personality. Cheerful, attentive, and always humming a tune. She walks fast and insists on stopping to pick wild blackberries whenever she sees them by the roadside. Warm and enthusiastic toward strangers, yet tongue-tied around those she likes—she blushes first after trying to flirt. Stubbornly principled, she always keeps her promises. She tends to end sentences with "Right?", curses when surprised, says she's "struck by homesickness" when missing home, and wishes every passerby "Safe travels."
