Preferring to spend her time in the heat, her skin stays tanned and the majority of her wardrobe is made up of ripped and/or singed jeans and cut-offs, camis, button ups, and boots. She does own a few more dressy items, but their use is infrequent. She's almost never seen without a pair of the earrings she and her mother made when she was first learning to work metal.She has matching scars on both ankles, knees, and hips from surgeries done as an infant and toddler.<br/><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">General Information:</span></strong><br/><em>Orientation:</em>Omni-sexual<br/><em>On/ Offs</em>(I don't have a thread for this yet.

Their's had been a typical summer fling, burning hot and ending all too quick. By the summer's end, all she had left to remember the man by was a charm bracelet and the growing child inside her. She'd not taken him too seriously when he'd told her who he actually was, but had instead joked about him getting around well for an ancient cripple.<br/><br/>Nine months later, she produced a daughter and felt immediate regret for having made cripple jokes. The baby, she named Seraphina, was born with a form of Amyoplasia, an abnormality in muscle development that caused her legs to be immobile in the womb, resulting in  hip displasia and the fusing of the joints in her ankles and knees. The full extent of the condition went unnoticed until the girl proved unable to crawl normally. At this point, she was diagnosed and her treatments began. Surgeries were required to cut away excess fibrous tissues around the joints, and osteotomies to separate the fused bones. A series of casts were used to force the muscles and tendons to stretch and bend properly, to keep the girl's hips in place, and to keep the bones in her legs turned the right direction until everything healed.<br/><br/>Until age of five, Seraphina wore custom made leg braces to assist with her therapies. Doctors suggested swimming as a way to work her legs without the stress of weight, but, after several mishaps, it was decided that wasn't a viable option. Even now her gait it a little off, and she can't run much before her legs begin to hurt. Since her mother worked fulltime as a ferrier at a horse farm, it proved helpful to let the girl exercise some of the calmer horses or the weaker rescues. As her legs built the stamina to keep up with the rest of her body, she began riding and helping her mother more in the forge when not at school.<br/><br/>Childish teasing became bullying and harassment as she got older. By the time she reached junior high it reached a dangerous level, her tormentors proving to be less than human. Summers began being spent less on the farm in Georgia and more at a camp near San Francisco. At the end of her sophomore year in highschool, the attacks had become so frequent that her mother insisted she finish her schooling at the camp and live there full time. On her first day officially living at the camp, she wandered into the forge, the one place that felt like home. Without thinking, she began working on a sword and in that moment her father gave his mark.<br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Other notes:</span></strong><br/><em>Allergies:</em>Shellfish<br/><em>Full-time or part-time camper?</em>Full-time
