<span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Lulu the Apprentice Portmancer (https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=1149836)</strong></span><br/><br/><div class="floatright">(http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Autocad-E/94dab60695a1500312562c59be37de22_zpsuvnofpn6.jpg)</div>Lulu was born to a pair of elven rangers who lived in and watched over their forest. Even before she could properly walk and talk she was getting into trouble, constantly being found in places she couldn't possibly have crawled to. As a child she started playing with baby lizards and birds that had somehow found their way into her home. The rangers knew that these animals were definitely not native to the forest, but their presence was a mystery until one day they saw her opening a small magical portal to a faraway wilderness.<br/><br/>At a loss of how to raise an arcanely talented child, Lulu's parents sent her off to be apprenticed to a wizard who happened to live closest to sleepy village called Mormouth. For most of her formative years her world was the wizard's tower, broken up only by the occasional errand that required her to step outside. Not that she was unhappy; between the demands of her apprenticeship and the household chores she had to perform for her master, she buried her nose in books and explored the world through them, and found companionship in little creatures she lured through portals from distant lands.<br/><br/>The years passed and Lulu grew into a beautiful young woman. Having grasped the basics of magic her master began to direct her studies towards her personal specialization in portals that could teleport herself or others. One day she was researching a new spell when something went wrong and there was a blinding explosion... when the light subsided, she found herself teleported several miles away! When she made her way back to the tower, her master informed her that her lack of experience in the real world was hampering her progress and she would never become a fully fledged wizard in her own right without it. Well it was either that or perhaps he was just tired of random explosions interrupting his own research, but whatever the case was in the end Lulu found herself booted right back out of the tower and told not to come back for a few years at least.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Lulu is full of knowledge but rather naive due to her sheltered upbringing. Socially she is shy and reserved, and rather sensitive about her ears if someone brings attention to them or even if she feels someone is staring at them. During her apprenticeship, when she had to go out on errands, children would tease her and call her names about her ears. (And her ears in turn are a rather sensitive part of her body, even if she doesn't know it yet,<em>wink wink nudge nudge</em>.)
