She is fair skinned with a hint of tanning that shows she travels. Besides that her build can only really be described as beautiful but modest. With no particular traits such as a large bust to make her stand out, she is just overall fairly attractive.<br/><hr/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;">Role Play Centered Information</span></span><br/><br/><strong>Class:</strong>Bard<br/><strong>Level:</strong>3<br/><strong>Alignment:</strong>Neutral good<br/><strong>Character Sheet:</strong>https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=1738944 (http://Lenne Briarwood)<br/><strong>Additional Information:</strong>Lenne doesn't particularly make a point of throwing around her family name, unless otherwise told or (--hidden by plot--) assume you don't know her family line. if you've seen her around in Taverns or traveling, she is fairly reserved and hasn't been seen taking part in carnal pleasures.<br/><hr/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><span class="bbc_u">History</span></span><br/><strong>Family:</strong>Briarwood<br/><strong>Hometown:</strong>The Briarwood estate outside of Whitestone, although it is no longer there.<br/><strong>A little about personality:</strong>Lenne is fairly kind hearted and is often seen trying to cheer people up when they appear down. Otherwise she is often seen being fairly reclusive and keeps to herself when she is not performing, often she blames this on trying to not let fame follow her so she can have privacy. She has a huge soft spot for underdogs and children however, sometimes even joining such individuals on their task to record their exploits into song. Due to being betrothed in the past Lenne doesn't tend to reciprocate any advances when she is sound of mind, not wishing to dishonor the memory of her husband, or the other Briarwood who didn't side with Vecna, she was to her knowledge the only survivor after all.<br/><br/><strong>General Life Story:</strong>As the only child of Asgol Briarwood, a respected Paladin of the Briarwood family prior to the events preceding the awakening of  Vecna, and Ysena Ymmuri, a noble Elven songstress who had married into the Briarwoods after Asgol won her heart through a solitary dance under the moonlight of his estate on the outskirts of Whitestone.<br/><br/>Although Lenne saw little of her Father as he was often on the front lines due to Skirmishes breaking out with a concerning regularity with the De Rolo family who held Whitestone proper. Although it failed to escalate into anything further than the occasional bar fight and scowling faces across a field. It kept Asgol's attention enough that he was seldom able to spend time with his Daughter. As a result it often fell to Ysena and estate carers to tend to the needs of the young half-elf. Even at this age Lenne found the tight security and strict lessons arranged for her to be stifling, with exception of her singing lessons which she took like a fish to water. Unfortunately she found the subsequent lessons in sword arts and etiquette to be a place she found herself lacking, often her mother joked that she must've got her sword skills from her, and her etiquette from her father, which was a small consolation. Not wishing to let her mother down however Lenne spent extra time attempting to improve in these areas, if there was one thing that could get her motivated, it was in the pursuit of praise from her parents.<br/><br/>Life continued much in the same way until Lenne's 16th birthday, when she was announced at a gathering of nobles from all around Tal'dorei, she was one of many however to her knowledge she was the only one at this ball that had any trace of Elven heritage, this fact allowed her to stand out as many suitors competed to get her attention throughout the evening, despite her many attempts to dissuade a great many of them who she recognized were only interested in using her position as to be little more than a trophy wife.<br/><br/>Thankfully for her, in a event quite similar to the stories that her mother told her about how she met her father, she found a diamond in the rough when she was gathering her thoughts out in the cold of the courtyard. A slightly older man named Guthrak, perhaps in his late 20's, someone she had seen visiting her father at the estate next to what she could only assume was one of his generals. Regardless of his status she knew he was of a military background. But Lenne could see past the scars and rough exterior. His eyes shone with a kindness that was sadly missing from most of the nobles inside the ballroom. After some lengthy conversation, which then became regular written contact, into any excuse to visit each-other throughout the next few years. Eventually Lenne was able to convince Asgol to allow the marriage to go ahead, leading to a controversy that a common born was marrying into nobility. But Lenne cared not, Guthrak was the person she wanted to spend her life with.<br/><br/>Unfortunately for her, she was destined to not get her wish, although she was not privy to what was happening, she was able to garner that the greater Briarwood family was insisting that the estate to be used as a beachhead for an attack into Whitestone. Of course Asgol and Guthrak disagreed with the notion. However the choice was taken out of their hands when the Briarwood forces fell onto the estate butchering everyone in the night that will forever be engrained in Lenne's eyes, if it was not for the quick thinking of one of her maids she would of died in the carnage along with everyone else. However thanks to the maid she was able to escape with little more than the clothes on her back, and the Viol engraved with the Briarwood emblem that Guthrak commissioned for her on her latest birthday.<br/><br/>Under the guide of her maid, who she soon found out was an acting agent for another noble family, took her towards sanctuary, on their travels her worst fears were realized as she was lead to believe that nobody survived the attack. The Briarwoods claimed it to be a sneak attack by the De Rolo family in Whitestone, using it as an excuse to later occupy the city. With the Briarstone name in tatters, Lenne decided to instead of returning to the noble with her maid, took to the wilds hoping that people would believe her dead and not come looking for her.<br/><br/>Days turned to weeks, to months, to years, eventually decades. Lenne heard the tales of the fate of the Briarwoods, thankful that her family was avenged by the betrayal. But knowing she had nowhere to return, Lenne took on the path of becoming a Bard. The life grew on her quickly, living off her wit and her voice.<br/><br/>Now there are always tales of the Half-Elven bard who's songs touched the Tavern locals. Of people who were in need of aid to find it from a unlikely source. Despite regular proposals to settle down by those she met on her travels, Lenne was unable to convince herself to end her years of travelling, this is what she is now. No longer a Lady of the Briarwoods. Just... Lenne. The only thing tying her to her previous life, the Viol that her love got for her. Despite all logic, she was just unable to throw it away.
