You know...
Mar. 28th, 2005 12:40 amI'm sitting here...trying to write kind of a mini character bio for Trishy so I can get a poem from nshc for her. And I realize after 20 minutes of typing that she's just...really stupid. And very complex. And that I'm about 430 words in (my Nanoers will appreciate how large that actually kind of is) and I've JUST gotten to her falling for Hawk. Dear god. Plus I'm half-asleep, and as I read over the whole thing, it just makes me laugh.
'This character's name is Trisha Evans, and she's about 18 or 19 in this instance. She spent part of her childhood in a bandit clan, but when she was about 5 or 6, the clan was attacked and a good number of the adults killed...along with her parents, so she was left to fend for herself and her little sister. Yet not long after, her older brother found her and sold her into slavery. She spent many years there, hating every last bitter moment. She deeply resented her older brother for what he'd done, and when she came face-to-face with a girl that she thought sold the clan out to it's attacker, she attempted to murder her. Not knowing she had failed, the experience simply made her colder and more distant. It didn't help that as she grew older, she was getting sleazy looks and every day things seemed to get more and more dangerous. After a particularly bad encounter with a master and his whip, she is sold to a man by the name of Draken Casmanien. He basically treats her like no man has in years - like she's a human being, not an object. Though that is slightly unnerving, Trish slowly grows fond of him, and then just flat out falls for him. Being the idiot that she is, it takes her far too long to realize this, but once she does things are quite happy. Until she wakes up one morning, with nothing but an empty house and a note. Infuriated, Trish goes into deep denial mode and runs off to make her own way. It doesn't take her long to realize she's not quite cut out for surviving on the streets through the cold winter, and she's also found herself quite pregnant with a child that Draken knows nothing about. Trish finds refuge with two nurses, and while she's safe there, the pain of giving up her child is too much to stay. So, once again, she runs off, this time to join a gang and start a small relationship with the leader. She's barely there for a few months when one of her old friends from her clan days finds her and brings her back. For three years, Trish is happy, living among her old friends and the few family members she has left. During one of her (rather common) bouts in prison, Trish falls for the sheriff's brother (in case you haven't noticed, the girl is quick to fall for just about anything that breathes...she's quite stupid, actually...never listens to a word I say)'
Then I stopped. Because, oh my god. Even just covering to the point where William is born would take me at least 200 words. *Hits Trisha*
(*Jumps awake and slaps Maddy*)
OW.
(*Blinks* You woke me up first, idiot...it's a reflex)
Your life is too complex.
(*Raises an eyebrow*)
Go back to sleep.
(*Wanders further within Maddy's mind, so she can avoid getting randomly hit*)
Though now I have the urge to continue on and be as bitter and sarcastic as possible. *Shakes head* And you know I still don't know all the details of the Drakie leaving, so I just kind of made up the thing about the note. Did he leave a note? Or did he tell her? At all? Hmm.
I'm quite sleepy. Bed would be a nice option. Knowing me, on my last day of staying up late, I won't. I should try to do a Trisha bio made up mostly of personality parts. Gah.

EDIT - ( -_- *headdesk* My final order bio )
