GENERAL
Name: Hebe Anemone which means wind flower, she was given this name under the myth of a nymph that transformed into a flower.
Oder names: She is known as Hebe, not everyone knows her full name except for close relatives and friends. She loves to be called Anemone more than Hebe.
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Occupation: she has no recent occupation, she is the princes of Sparta by her brother's side, she has no means on ruling any land nor marriage though it is suggested that at that age she finds herself a good man to share her life with theorically...
Birthplace: Born in Sparta
Family Relations: she doesn't keep a strong memory of her father, he used to concentrate much more in ruling than his family which is fathomable since he always worked hard to set a good example as Stelios, her brother, is doing. Spartan men are to dedicate themselves fully to work until they are formally complete civilians and that is by accomplishing all their goals and whence they have ended finally their formative period, when they reach age of thirty.
Her youngest sister, Sophia, is known as they joy of the family, apart from a good listener she is a great adviser and at hard times Sophia had been Hebe's right hand. There was a time when confusion dragged her emotions and Sophia had been there to ease her pain. Stelios in the other hand had maintained himself partial, for him everyone was an equal and everyone suffered, therefor no one was worth of any kind of pity, that would only admit their weakness and that would contradict the reason of their existence.
Her parents had never shown any kind of tenders to their children and because of that they did not feel the need to be bribed, they had learned to work for what they wanted since very little, also they had been very well educated, they believed that strong mind women would procreate strong children.
Weapon: She is a sword lover, she had been influenced by Stelios to enter more to the world of war after all Spartan culture is based on their military capacities and abilities.
Other Items owned: She keeps an arrow that had been addressed to her father during his first fight, she had survived a mortal wound and that fact meant a lot to her, she kept it as a relic or token to remember her father's strength which also laid in her blood.
BACKGROUND
Personality: In general women tend to be sweet, tender, soft and wise, she has got those qualities but also those that identify Spartan women, their strong mind, ideals, the fact that they are not excluded from social life as many other women at other cultures. They have the power to control their own domains without the need of man to do so and because of that they are determined.
Apart from being a young woman she is starting to face reality more each day and that somehow freezes her feelings, she has learned to stay put and not show her emotions easily, she was never allowed to cry in public but she was taught how to yell her frustration at the practice of war.
Detailed History:Being the second child and a female she was taught all what her mother thought as appropriate. Men and women were trained alike except for the fact that women were fed mentally more than men, they were taught about literature as well as to spend time at the gymnasium to work out and take care of their fitness, image at this rare culture is very important.
She had to take care of her younger sister when her mother passed, at the age of four she was too young to handle her alone and so her father bought a slave who was in other terms more like the mother they had lost.
In time she became part of the family. Her older brother took care of the external matters whilst she took care of the internal factors at the age of twelve. At very young age her worries were not common to the worries of girls her age and because of it she had to grow up.
Thanks to this she learned how to develop her mind more, how to make the right decisions and how to distinguish good from wrong.
At the age of eighteen she fancied a man but he was murdered and so her heart was broken, at this precise moment she doesn't expect to find happiness aside of a good husband, she expects to find that happiness within. Of course that she does not close her eyes, if she is meant for marriage it is welcome.
Fears: Loneliness
Strengths: her ability with the sword and quickness
Weaknesses: doubt
Likes: freedom
Dislikes: injustice
APPEARANCE:
Facial features: She has dark brown hair and dark brown eyes, her long hair cloaks from behind her shoulders reaching her waist. Her cheeks are slightly colored and has got well purloined reddish lips, her long eyelashes contrast her gace.
Clothing: She likes to wear short dresses generally white since it is a fresh color that doesn't absorb to much heat. She hates long dresses since they barely allow her to run and excersise as she pleases. Generally, as it is specified, Spartan citizens tend to be nude and at special celebrations also. When they train they tend to pour oil at their skin to create beauty, cloths don't allow to move freely.
Build: well built
Marks/Scars: she hasn't got any scars yet.
