General Appearance
Alexandra is a lean, tall, and composed Wanderer whose mixed Valyrian Blood shows heavily, such blood being derived from her father's and mother's lines, her father being a blacksmith that had moved her to King's Landing after some unforeseen trouble in Myr. She stands at a above average height and her body remains strengthened from her helping her father in his blacksmith and being taught by him how to handle a blade. Holding no chance of being able to be of worth as a blacksmith with the death of both parents, she has taken to improving herself in every way that she can, this has allowed for her body to become lean to accompany her height and as thus allowed for her to use blades at will.

Her skin is milky white as is normal for her and she has Silvered hair that runs past her shoulders and along her back. Her demeanor is proud but silent, never speaking to those who havent proven themselves to be worth her attention earning her a cold reputation but a false one. She always wears a smile in the face of company, her violet eyes accompanied by soft features.

Outfits
Her clothing is either normally that of Silver, Blue, Gold, or Black. She wears fine or simple dresses depending upon the occasion at which she is seen and has finery to match such dresses. When not in formal occasions it is not uncommon to see her in less restrictive clothing, as she is accustom to wearing Gambesons, Armor, Trousers, and other such clothing due to her time on ships or due to the time spent with a blade.

Possessions

Her Armor: Much like that of the long dead Targaryen Queen Visenya, she wears armor very similar to her only chancing the blacks of the armor to silvered steel and the reds and oranges to a cool sea blue. Alexandra's Armor

Her Shield: As abnormal as it is for her to use a shield she does own one and knows how to fight with it. Though this is a strange occurrence as she is more often than not seen with daggers, or a longsword and shortsword paired together.Alexandra's Shield

Her Longsword: Her longsword is a specially crafted weapon that weighs a total of two point four pounds and has a total length of fourty three inches, the blade itself thirty six inches and hilt seven. He hilt is light blue tinted metal with black leather bindings on the grip, the blade a pale silver tinted steel. Longsword

Her Shortsword: An ancient steel blade that her family has passed down through the Generations she holds it now after taking it from her home before she left. The Short sword's blade is around eighteen inches and is used in unison with her longsword normally. Etched on the blade are ancient markings, akin to old valyrian but are mixed with that or other unknown languages and the hilt is bound in a rough leather grip. Alexandra's Shortsword




Personality



Strengths

Welcoming: When she enters a conversation or is social, she is a very welcoming person. Her soft kind features and light voice comes off as calming and sweet. Though she is better known for her volatile side, this calm, kind, and caring side shows when confronted with Social situations such as weddings, feasts, or children.

Skilled with Blades: Working off the history of female warriors and knights like Brienne and Daenerys Targaryen and of the Warrior princesses of Dorne, Alexandra has found herself wishing to become skilled in war with a blade. Because of such she with her father's approval before his death has taken part in extensive training with a blade and shield. Though she is more proficient with using her long and short sword in unison she has made i known she knows how to use a shield effectively.

Born of the Forge: Because of father's history as a blacksmith, knowledge of the trade and how to make blades, armor, and other weapons are instilled in her through her father. She has an extensive knowledge of the subject and normally shocks people with her knowledge of such things.

Lover of Stories: Alexandra has loved stories and histories from a young age and as such is an avid reader in what little time she has to herself. She is well versed in myths, legends, and the history of Westeros.


Weaknesses

Reputation for being Cold: Because of her cold demeanor to those who interupt her or have not proven they are worth her time to talk to, she is seen as a cold woman. This is though massively false, it has caused many to avoid her when she passes and for them to perhaps not look at her in the best way.

Duty to the Family and Honor: Because of her place in Westerosi Society, her family's memory and the memory of her father are the most important things to her, as well as her own honor and the honor of her past. This leads her to become somewhat reckless in the face of those who would disgrace her or her name, even more so for her being a Hedge Knight.

Physically weaker than other Fighters: Such as the name suggests, she is after all weaker than many male warriors. This bars her from using weapons like great swords and warhammers effectively. She also finds it hard to block strikes and must always avoid or attempt to parry them. To counter this though she is much lighter on her feet and quicker.

There's just one thing that I'm a bit uncertain about, and that is the fact she's a female hedge knight. Is there a reason she was knighted? There would have to be an extremely good one for a woman to be given that honour... not to mention that she's foreign and worships R'hllor.
