Erika Adelaide
Erika is sweet. Very sweet. She loves people when they smile, and laugh, and does everything in her abilities (though that's not much) to make them happy.
It wasn't always like this, though. Growing up, Erika was sheltered from the world, only allowed outside once or twice to go to school. Her parents feared for her safety, and they weren't too far from the truth.
Erika had, and still has, some sort of mental disorder, though it hasn't been diagnosed. When she was little, it was hard for her to control her actions; often times accidently hurting those around her though she was not aware of this. Mean-spirited actions, harsh language, and raised voices often caused her to lash out.
Taking Erika out of school only after her 3rd year was a blessing and a curse to Erika. Due to her handicap, her family broke apart, and it became evident that Erika had gained her disorder from her mother, as she watched her mother spiral downward into the depths of insanity driven by her husband's departure.
In a fit of self-defense, Erika slammed her own mother into a door trying to get away from her, causing the death of the elder woman who had already been ailing. Though pardoned, Erika became frightened of herself, and took to traveling. She wants to get close to people, but fears that they could end up the same way as her mother, and so many others.
She has long since resigned that she's doomed to be alone forever, since everyone she's cared about has left her or died....however, that mentality is slowly starting to change.

Crushes
Flynn Scifo:
Commandant of the Royal Guard, Flynn is a knight through and through. He works hard to make the world a better place, and focuses on changing the bigger picture before the smaller one. Very structured, he prefers to follow laws instead of instincts, and was raised to be a gentleman. He's very kind, and while a little embarassed around women, he always puts them before himself.
He tends to work himself to sickness, however, and doesn't let things go easily.

Alternate Outfits:
Zagi:
Zagi is quite the enigma. He's obsessive, and compulsive, and slightly damaged from issues in his youth. He's not the nicest person in the world, far from it in fact; but he has his reasons. Shown from a young age that the world was definitely not sunshine and rainbows, this molded him into what could be the perfect mercenary. Despite this, and the lack of knowledge on basic human interaction due to the fact it was lacking in his growth, he has his moments of kindness.
Which are usually followed by a slightly tsundere/embarrased comeback that is almost always spiteful even though he doesn't mean for it to be.
