(http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g194/daxionsfire/RP%20Girls/JessicaDownes003.jpg)<br/><br/><strong>Username</strong>:  SablePaladin<br/><strong>Character Name</strong>: Chrissa Williamson<br/><strong>Age</strong>: 17<br/><strong>Height</strong>: 5'7"<br/><strong>Hair</strong>: Brown<br/><strong>Eyes</strong>: Gray<br/><strong>Appearance</strong>: Slender, lithe. Her work on her parents' ranch has kept her in very good shape. Usually wears jeans, tshirt, sneakers, and jacket to school.<br/><strong>Sexuality</strong>: Hasn't explored it very much, but technically, she's open to anything.<br/><strong>Personality</strong>: Chris tends to be serious a lot of the time. She can be dour, her humor sarcastic and morbid. She didn't garner many friends at school, mostly because she hated all the drama that went along with large groups of friends. However, once she determines she likes someone, she is extremely loyal, possibly to a fault. She believes in helping others, but she doesn't care much for what she calls "the stupid gene." People who aren't her friends get one mistake around her. Any more than that, and they're on their own.<br/><br/><strong>History</strong>: Chris grew up on her family's horse ranch outside of town. Every day, she goes to school, and then drives her beat up pickup back home. Once there, she finishes her homework, and spends the rest of her evening working on the ranch. On weekends, she gets a bit of time off, but usually doesn't have much going in the way of a social life. Riding became second nature to Chris, and it became a passion as well as a hobby for her.<br/><br/>She had a lot of friends when she was younger, in elementary school. However, as she grew up and had to devote more time to the ranch, many of her friendships grew distant. The kids she used to hang out with were mostly from town, and didn't understand how much time she had to put into her family's business. Nor did they understand the independent, self-reliant way of life she was brought up in. As a result, Chris had felt more and more socially isolated over the years, though she tries hard to remain a friendly person. Her own personality often works against her in this, but she does try.<br/><br/><strong>Skills/Hobbies</strong>: A skillful rider, very adept at handling animals, particularly horses. She also has experience with guns, mostly rifles. She can shoot squirrels with a .22 long rifle from horseback, while on the move. Her experience does not include any sort of military training or tactics, however.<br/><strong>How he/she met Michael</strong>: Chris has seen Michael in the halls of school quite often, and may even have had a few conversations with him. She was often intrigued by him, though, and when he spoke up the morning this all began, she paid careful attention.<br/><strong>Additional Notes</strong>: Nothing additional at this time. Once I get into this more, ideas will start flowing.<br/>[/quote]
