Personality:

Due to how she was raised, Autumn never had much experience with people outside of her family. Having yet to earn her competent communicator ribbon, she talks in circles and fumbles over her words. It makes her seem shy, but she's rather sociable and enjoys interacting with others. Awkward as she is with expressing herself verbally, she's practically an open book. She doesn't make much effort to hide how she feels about things, believing there's not much of a point in putting in the effort. However, she tries not to openly express anything negative without regard for those around her in order to avoid confrontation and unnecessary stress. If something bad does go down, she's not the type to hold a grudge - often passing it off as being bad for her health to fret over such things.

In a professional environment, Autumn surprisingly shines. Years of watching her parents work and even facing a or two customer a few times herself have rubbed off on her. It's one of the few times she can manage to put up a front of being a calm, collected, mature individual. A diligent worker, she pays careful attention to each and every detail, refusing to call a job done until it has reached utter perfection. She puts her all into her work and does it well, and takes pride in at least that much. And yet, she doesn't claim to have much passion for the work. It's simply something she's good at, something she does well. This seems to be true with many aspects in her life. Nothing has yet to light a fire in her heart. Without any outside motivation or direction, she ends up aimlessly going through the motions of each day.

Autumn insists on caring for people and helping them with their problems - whether they really want her to or not. She means well most of the time, but can come off as meddling or over bearing when she's constantly sticking her nose in. She wants to give off the image of someone wise and mature but, as much as she'd hate to admit it, Autumn is very dependent on other people. She tries to stand on her own, but the idea that she's frail and can't do much still echoes in the back of her mind. In situations she's unfamiliar with, she gets easily flustered and frustrated. She almost expects that someone would be there to help her or do things for her, even when she insists on doing things herself, because that's how things usually went when she was a child.

History:

TL;DR

Autumn grew up with her mother, step father and step siblings on the road, as a family of traveling merchants. However, due to her poor health, she never got to experience much of the world around her. Playtime with children her age and adventures in all the different towns she visited were a rare treat. Her parents, her siblings, even her own body told her that she was frail, so she grew to accept that. She did what she could to be helpful to her family, taking care of menial chores like cleaning and cooking, even learning to sew so she could repair garments and other items.

When her brother turned of age, he chose to settle down to pursue a career of her own, and she went with him. They lived together for a while, during which she became an apprentice at the local tailor shop to help make money. After a few years, her brother got married and moved out with his wife. Without anyone else to motivate her to do things around the house and in general, she became stagnant. She'd just go through the motions of each day, living without really living. Until one day a cute little flyer appeared in her mailbox. At first she dismissed it as a scam. But the more she thought about it, the more it seemed like a good chance. At least for a season. So, with a bit of hesitation and uncertainty, she packed and headed for the station. To her new life through the Eclair Express.

Additional Info:

→ Probably cries if you give her a loved item
→ She dabbles in designing clothes, but prefers to do customizations or detailed work. 
→ Actually a big ol' baby about taking medicine. Appreciates getting it because she takes it as a sign that someone cares
→ Total weak sauce when it comes to physical activities because it's stuck in her head that her body will let her down. She's kind of defeatist about the idea of being physically fit.
→ Wants to learn to swim but had an unfortunate incident that makes her kinda hesitant to go into large bodies of water
→ While she expects appreciate help from others, she's very picky about said help. If it's not done right, she'll nag a bit about sloppy work and come off as ungrateful.
→ Exaggerates a lot.
→ Also tends to give a really silly responses to every day questions because giving the same answer all the time get tiring. They're mostly jokes and she doesn't mean any harm by them. If someone actually believes her, she'll probably feel bad and apologize
→ A lot more worried about making other people sick than other people getting her sick. This is a bit ambiguous when she just says "Please don't stand so close to me."
→ Yet, most of the time she isn't all that contagious if you've got a decent immune system
→ Super sentimental. She saves a lot of the non-food gifts she gets and takes good care of them. Flowers usually get pressed into a little book that she keeps in her night table
→ At the moment, her health is at a pretty low point. Because she hasn't been treating herself well, she's underweight and likely to get sick if she isn't already
→ Her education is mostly informal. She knows a decent amount of stuff but a lot of it is self taught, or taught by her parents
→ Talks to inanimate objects because she was a lonely child
→ Afraid of large dogs
→ Actually named by her step father. She tries not to be as indecisive as her mother.
→ Writes to Cypress very frequently


Roleplay Methods/Availability:
Para | Lit | Script
Skype | Chat | Google Docs | Forums | Notes

Timezone: EST

I'm generally down for whatever and can be pretty flexible with style and medium! I'm also totally up for headcanon-ing if you'd just like to talk about interactions and junk. I prefer not doing long lit (several paragraphs) as I kinda tend to go really slow and might forget. I don't mind rping on forums or through notes, but I can be really slow there! Please don't hesitate to give me a little kick if I haven't replied in a few days ; o ;
