Elusia Three: Aurora Gordon [@-Giraffe-]

"Somewhere beyond the chaos, there is a diamond sky and fading fire... I'll meet you there."

Name: Aurora Gordon

Gender: Female

Age: 19

Birthplace: Valden, Elusia

Physical Appearance: Decorated with weapons sharp to the touch, Aurora is quite a sight to see for foreigners. She wears a belt full of her favorite knives and daggers, each of them varying in size and concealed in scabbards with intricate patterns. Her soft brown hair is often held back by a silver barrette that keeps a matching hair stick in place, and while the stick might be commonly mistaken for an ornament, it's anything except. During desperate moments, she'll reveal the stick as a spike that can be used to bail her out of a losing match. And when stripped of her arms, it becomes clear that Aurora isn't as intimidating as the weapons she wears. Her pretty green eyes bear as much curiosity as the grey specks that are lost in them, and her porcelain skin remains scar-free. The small stature and shorter height she has compared to the other knights may be a bit laughable, but try not to laugh too hard as it makes her all the more elusive.

Personality: A lack of seriousness and constant energy, Aurora fulfills her duties with an enthusiasm that can't be matched. Often, people would describe her as fun to be around, and if she's not laughing too loudly or spilling tea on the floor, she's dancing alone to no music. Although she may act like a fool, be careful not brush her off too easily. She'll go to extremes to protect another knight or person she loves, and she's fearless in her mission to defend others. She's as brave as she is reckless, and she'd be an eager volunteer to ride into a war her country is clearly outmatched in. Her relentlessness makes her a force that never knows when to give up, and it's her pride that keeps her fire burning. While this pride makes it so she'll refuse to ask for help despite desperately needing it, and pushing herself dangerously past her limitations, one thing will always remain clear. She'll always be the first to swing and last to give up.

Past: Probably the most significant thing about her lifestyle was the fact she was primarily raised by her father, Elijah Gordon. A widowed father who frequently traveled out of Valden as a merchant, he trained Aurora at a young age to not only be capable of defending herself but capable of protecting her sisters during periods when he was away. It was after the death of his wife that the family structure shifted to what it is now with Bethany taking on the role as caregiver to her younger sisters, Aurora and Celestine, and often spending her time cooking or cleaning. Meanwhile, Aurora shifted into the role as the protector who would stab any man who got too handsy with her sisters or refused to have tea parties with Celestine. (It's rude to deny a nine-year-old's invitation to a tea party). It should almost come as no surprise that this protective role is what motivated her into becoming a knight in the first place.

Skills: Even with the recklessness and lack of true strategic efforts, Aurora's a knight that isn't easily brought down. What she lacks in those areas, she makes up in others. She's an expert with daggers and throwing knives, wielding these weapons masterfully in battle. This, combined with her affinity for dance, can make her elusive, able to dodge attacks and land them with ease. Every move is rhythmic and instinctive with footwork that's always on point. A naturally born sneak, she prides herself on her ability to ambush targets when they least expect it.
