Apperance: Seventeen year old Flanna stands 5'5'', but has the ability to carry herself with an air of someone much taller. She was named after Irish queens of the past, and she takes her namesake to heart. She tries to carry herself with dignity, regardless of her position, and it shows in her outward demenor.
Her pale skin is dotted with light brown freckles, a sign of her irish heritage. She is full blooded irish, but comes from Black Irish, meaning her hair is jet black as oppose to the steryotypical bright red. Falling to just below her shoulders, it is almost indigo in its intensity, with a single grey strand falling from the crown of her head, a gift from birth. She usually wears it pulled back in a tight bun and hidden under a newsboy cap.
Her eyes are bright green, burning with a fire and intensity that mirrors the passion within. They are large and brilliant, taking in everything she sees. Her lips are full and red, almost always pursed in a smirk, as if she knows some joke that you do not.
While curvy, she passes most days as a younger boy, by taping her chest down and donning male clothing. (reasons for this explained later) While her voice is harmonious and sing-song like, she lowers it to be mistaken for a boy in the street. She will only allow her true gender to be known to those she trusts and is comfortable with.
Personality:
Flanna is an enigma. While she does things many do not understand, every one has a purpose and would be easily understood if one simply asked Flanna for her reasons. Because of her history, she is extreemly guarded with her personal information, and while she may seem a sullen girl, when she smiles, it lights up a room.
She is kind and loving to those she cares about, and those who show care and love to her. If you are not in one of thse categories, however, best keep ahold of your wallet or anything else that isn't tied down. She will manipulate and take what she can from you, as long as it betters her situation. Flanna also wishes to show the boys that she is just as good as them, and may be able to best them at things. She tends to play 'mother' to those younger than her, and will defend a child to the death.
History:
Born in Dublin, her mother and father moved with her to New York shortly after her 10th birthday to escape prosecution for stealing horses. Born with the 'witches kiss' (the grey streak) Flanna has constantly been under the eye of others, and has given her a slight chip on her shoulder. When she was 15 she was sexually assaulted, and from that point on she felt safer in a males clothing than showing her true gender. After the death of her mother and father from Cholera, Flanna had to make it on her own.
She currently works as a pickpocket and has applied to become a newsboy.
