Gender: 2
Race: half-elf/half-human
Height: 5'3
Age: 28
Family: Mother-Galadriel, Father-unknown to her, sisters-Celebrian and Syriana (and Elnineth by choice)
Animals: Chase, a mare, white with black mane and tail
Weapons: whatever she gets her hands on, and her vicious tongue! (she can be a mean one)

Personality: -she's much of a loner now, always searching for a place that feels like home. She has an attitude! Very stubborn. Very defensive. Very brash. -has a very quick temper that few can tame or extinguish. One of the only people that can do this is her old friend and former teacher (Strongbow). She didn't meet him until after she met Galadriel. It was her mother's idea to have her trained. She was twenty when she met him. -resents her elf heritage, but not elves. She's slightly p.o-ed that she didn't get the grace or the ears elves are known for. She's unsure of whether or not she is immortal since she seems to be aging in human years. -Has a dry sense of humor that not many people catch on to. It often results in her being seen as a bit of a (insert bad name here) -She can't really speak Elvish, and this frustrates her. Every now and then, a word or phrase will slip out, but she doesn't often realize it, and she doesn't really understand the languages. (side note: after a visit to Lorien, in the Elf/Bar thread, a few major things happen to Anda and she finds she suddenly is fluent in her mother's tongue) -She can sing, and has been known to sometimes (usually when she is alone...but she has sang a few times at the pub (The Prancing Pony) where she works after a few too many pints)

Appearance: Hair: waist-length, dark blonde, wavy. Usually has it back in a braid as it tends to annoy her when it gets in the way. Eyes: blue. They go grey when she's sad or angry, and they almost glow when orcs are near...kind of like how Sting glows blue. Features: small nose, high cheekbones, full lips, fair complexion Build: Slender, and quite well toned (see why in job description)

History:

Job Description: Barmaid at a pub. Is used to playing somewhat of a bouncer role as well (drunken morons!) Ends up with a lot of bruises and scrapes, but they heal quickly.
Her story: Raised as a human by strangers, Anda didn’t know that she was daughter of Galadriel. Her human family was attacked and killed by orcs (parents and two younger brothers). She now hunts them for revenge, but chooses to pass it off as sport. They left her with a scar across her stomach as a “reminder of their power”.
After the attack, she was brought to Galadriel, where she learned the truth. She feels betrayed by her mother, and because of this, their relationship is extremely strained. She doesn’t often talk to people about this. Very few know from her mouth, though the Lorien elves know, as well as Elrond and his family as they are her family too.
-An amazing marksman with a bow, though the first time she tried it, she ended up with an arrow in her foot. She was since trained by the Strongbow and he remains one of her only true friends (much more than that, he is a father figure, a mentor and a friend)
-She fell in love only once (and is still in love with him). She doesn’t talk about it. If, on rare occassion (usually only to Strongbow, her sister, or when drunk) she does talk about him, she never names him.
-She doesn’t like to talk about her true lineage, either. She doesn’t openly admit that Galadriel is her mother. She doesn’t hide her resentment for her mother either. She laughs when those who don’t know the truth demand her to respect Galadriel.
-was sent to live with humans because she didn’t appear elvish and Celeborn wasn’t thrilled with having her around. She was a bit of a problem child. On her early teens she went to live with her human family, and Galadriel wiped out her memory of ever living in Lorien. A meeting with her very close friend Bragolath (a childhood friend in Lorien) caused her to remember this. Another reason she resents her mother!
To this day, her mother refuses to reveal the identity of her birth father to her.
-was extremely close to her sister Syriana when young. When she was sent away and her memory was temporarily erased, she forgot who Syri was. Over time, they rebuilt their relationship, and Anda holds no grudge towards Syri
