Chloe Ryland

Chloe Ryland is an outgoing woman, newly enlisted with the Vigil. She's rarely seen without either of her dogs by her side.

Appearance
Chloe is a fairly average-looking woman of Canthan descent, with tawny skin and dark hair and eyes. Her hair is naturally dark brown, but she dyes it green-black, and tends to wear it swept to the side or loosely tied back. She also wears a jade hairclip, carved in the resemblance of a flower. She has black eyes.

She typically wears loose, comfortable clothing, and disdains dresses, preferring trousers. As a Vigil soldier, she wears a long coat in the Vigil's black and silver.

Personality
"slip the lead, fight! fight! my bark is softer than my bite"

Chloe is loud, brash and confident, and won't hesitate to use her wits or charm to get what she wants. She tends to tease her friends but she's quick to defend them (and unafraid to use underhanded methods to do so).

Despite growing up on a Shaemoor farm, Chloe greatly prefers large cities to the country. While she has no dreams or desire of becoming nobility, she's always dreamed of a busy life in the city.


 * Likes: dogs, free drinks, cute girls
 * Dislikes: Separatists, nobility, White Mantle, bandits, men who can't take a hint

Background
The sole child born to a Krytan farmer and a wayward Canthan sailor, Chloe grew up on the family farm outside of Divinity's Reach. The Rylands primarily operate a vineyard as well as a focus on growing various liquers and apothecary herbs, as well as meat poultry & rabbits. They also raised Baltan Shepherds - a dog breed prized for its stamina, trainability and passing resemblance to wolves.

As a child, Chloe was a rough-and-tumble tomboy with a reputation for terrorising the other children and livestock on neighbouring Shaemoor farms. Fascinated with the big city, Chloe was always eager to travel to Divinity with her father to sell and trade the products of their farm.

One of the neighbouring farmer children she often singled out as a target was Michele Durand. However, an incident involving some city bullies in Divinity led to Chloe and Michele forging a friendship, after Chloe insisted on teaching Michele how to fight so he could defend himself. The pair remained close friends to this day.

Chloe has recently signed on to the Vigil, hoping to use it as a means to leverage herself out of an inevitable career of farming (and to keep an eye on Michele).
