Inquiry and perception are frequent elements to her manner. A drive to learn is further central, although she respects boundaries and often shows caution socially when asking about events, situations, or other precedents. Occasionally attempts to be innovative in decisions relating to her work, and may occasionally compare the results of her work to that of others in the wine trade. Has a sense of humour, though slight and often doubted following related decisions. A grounded mentality appears forefront.

History

Originated in Carranfield.

Jointly owns a family tavern and vineyard she shares with relatives in stock and maintenance. However, she adheres to a forefront role in managing the vineyard and overseeing the tavern, appearing to unconsciously drive herself to support the business there.

Frequently steps back when complications occur around the tavern despite this, knowing that she is better off not hurt in disputes.

Trivia

Steady in manner typically.

Can be called agile and quick to react.

Frequently hurries about the tavern, carrying bottles when those need to be restocked.

Rarely drops anything.

Typically expends much effort in her work, indoors and outside.

At times has to be directly told that the alehouse is closing for her to stop at something, being set on cleaning or waiting tables.

One or more of her cousins, or her sister otherwise, frequently staffs in tandem.

Often one of the first persons to note the ale-conner arriving due to her habits. By extent, she often alerts the others in order for the alcohol quality and prices to be assessed.

When not working at the family business, may focus on her own ventures. This can include foraging or illustrating, if not attempting embroidery.

Knows a degree of plant types, but mostly focuses on brambles when searching in the summer months. Those are generally safer and easier to discern, if more difficult to find on occasion.

What she collects typically is distilled into varieties of wine and other alcohol, albeit not always sold in the tavern.

Often collects juniper berries in the winter for the gin that can be made.

Appears to sketch more than paint, preferring that to watercolour or oil painting.

Has an understanding and appreciation for various mediums, but typically does not alternate from her usual processes.

Affected by a rare disorder. Albinism is a disorder that is still gaining recognition within medical records.

She is not the only member of her family that has retained the condition. Although it is relatively uncommon in that lineage, this has evidently occurred a few times ancestrally.

Becomes sunburned easily. If remaining outside for long durations it can be necessary to treat her skin for swelling.
