Character Depth:
Personality:
Arina is a rather peculiar individual. Often the young woman is considered an enigma to most people that she interacts with. Generally, she is rather reserved. This is due to a calculated, logical and analytic nature. She tends to be very blunt and straightforward, though this aspect of her personality is nondescriminitve between positive and negative emotions. Most of this circulates around a lack of social interaction during the developmental stages of her life. Despite the fact that the young woman is soft spoken, she does not consider herself a shy person. Instead, Arina identifies herself as a person that is confident enough to talk, meet, and interact with almost any person, though she may tend to observe a group of people well before she approaches them.

Typically, Arina doesn't have a very wide spectrum of emotion that she is comfortable in displaying. While not a complete static individual, one will not see the woman expressing exceptional amounts of joy, anger or sadness: if she can help it. The people that get the opportunity to see this emotion are trusted individuals that Ari feels completely safe around. If such an individual is present while she is in a large group, she might act differently than she typically would, however.

Arina is a pacifist by nature. She doesn't particularly enjoy hurting people (or animals), and won't initiate combat unless necessary. If she is thrust into combat, she would rather attempt to evade or use her brain and skills to outwit opponents. However, if she feels there is no other option other than to fight, she will do so with haste and attempt to finish the altercation quickly. In any possible situation the young woman would aim much further at disabling her opponent rather than killing or seriously injuring them.

Despite this pacifist nature, Arina has the potential to be very protective. She doesn't like to see those she cares about deeply pulled away from her. If someone were to put those that she loves in danger, Arina might lash out uncharacteristicaly. If she feels that she is threatened by another person's presence (jealousy) she tends to act in a passive aggressive manner. If she feels intimidated, she will go out of her way with competition, something that doesn't usually motivate the young woman. It is times like these that are the only situation in which Ari will have any real interest in pride. Otherwise she is quick to admit her faults and that someone else is superior to her.

Likes:
-Reading: Ari particularly enjoys reading as a pastime. She typically reads fairy tales/folktales and mythology. She has a large library of such books in her possession.
-Music: There is something about music that soothes Arina. While typically not an emotional person, the brunette uses music as a way to release and decompress. She does so both through creating music with vocals and guitar as well as enjoys listening to it.
-Poetry: Poetry plays into both her love of music and reading. There is something abut the art of crafting a poem that completely captivates the young woman. When she feels particularly creative, the young woman will speak in haiku, couplets, or other forms of rhythmic lulls.
-Sweets: While the young woman particularly enjoys most types of food, she has a weak spot for sweets. Ice cream, lolipops, chocolate, cake, cookies-- if it's sweet Arina loves it.

Dislikes:
- Sour Foods: There are few foods that Arina dislikes, but she can't seem to stomach sour and bitter foods. She would rather starve.
- Insects: Arina is a stereotypical woman when it comes to hating bugs. Worms, crickets, cockroaches... you name it, it'll probably freak her out. The presence of creepy crawlies such as these reveal terrified emotion that is typically so well suppressed.
-Cold/Cold Weather: The young woman typically is pretty positive. However, when it comes to being cold, and cold weather, there is nothing that will make her so grumpy so quickly. She can't stand being cold, and will bundle up under several layers of clothes during late fall and all throughout winter.

Fears:
-Fire: Arina's fear of fire extends to most types of fire including magic and magic users. While the fear is not extreme enough to leave her paralyzed when she sees it, she tends to be extremely weary around flames. This aspect revolves mostly around uncontrolled flames, rather than small controlled flames from a stove or campfire (though she tends to be cautious around these as well) This inherent fear comes from an incident at the age of four that left the young girl severely burned across her back.
-Small/Cramped Spaces (Claustrophobia) Many of Arina's worst memories have occurred in small tight spaces. She relates small areas with these memories, and has generalized the memories to a fear and aversion.
-Arachnids: There is no traumatic experience that has caused Arina to be terrified of spiders. They're just gross... and creepy.

Motivations/Goals:
- Cooking/Baking: Arina doesn't know how to cook or bake, despite her love of food and sweets. She has the impressive ability of burning water when she cooks, and most other foods follow suit.
- Finding Kinship: Arina is a peculiar person, and while she is friendly, it isn't very common for her to create a real, deep connection with others. She desires to find well-balanced relationships, and people who can relate to and easily understand her.
-Being a Pillar of Sage Advice: Despite being a still-young mage, Arina desires to one day be able to mentor others, and that she could establish herself as a person that others can seek out in time of need. She has experienced much in her short lifetime, and the experiences she has weathered through make her much wiser beyond her years. She hopes that this knowledge will one day help other individuals.
