Build: Mesomorph. Slim with lean muscle.

Weight: 134lbs.
Hair: Red in color. She tends to either have her hair braided fully or sections braided into a “crown” around her head, the rest falling in waves that stop just below mid-back.
Eyes: Similar to her twin’s. Her eyes are a pale cerulean, the iris leaking into the sclera. They give off a faint, dim glow.
Physical Features: Other than the color of her hair and glowing eyes, features that stand out with Ingrid would be her pale skin with darkened veins and the scar on her right shoulder from a javelin.
Signature Clothing: She’d usually be found in an off-white blouse tucked into brown pants along with a blue coat and a short, grey cloak. She also wears a pair of archer’s gloves and bracers to protect her arms and fingers when she uses her bow.
Weaponry: A recurve bow given to her by Branko Callas. A bronze shortsword made for her by Cliff Raymond.
Inventory: She usually keeps a bag on her that contains a soft, wool blanket, basic medical supplies, and a waterskin of clean water that’s been boiled.
Hygiene: Ingrid keeps herself fairly clean, especially since starting her training in healing with Daeron. She usually smells of lavender.

Personality: Ingrid is a rather relaxed person, appearing outwardly as friendly and willing to help. She’s very protective of those she cares about and can be very quick to anger when defending them. When it comes to personal matters, she tends to keep things to herself, being very private. It’s hard to get her to share things and when something is bothering her, she quickly hides it by focusing on everyone else around her.
Strengths:
✶ Loyalty - Ingrid is incredibly loyal and protective of those that she cares about. She’s willing to do just about anything for her friends, having a difficult time saying no to them unless it pertains to their safety.
✶ Intuitive - She’s very in-tune with those around her, able to pick up on how they’re feeling rather easily. Because of this she can empathize with people very well and tends to be very sympathetic to the situations they end up in.
✶ Driven - Ingrid can’t stand sitting around and doing nothing. She constantly has a desire to be doing or working towards something, be it a new skill or a goal. She’s more confident when she has a goal in mind and will pursue them very persistently, not one to give up easily.
Weaknesses:
✶ Reckless - She tends to act before thinking things over fully, especially when it comes to situations involving those she cares for. Her focus is on keeping others safe. Herself? Not as much in the moment.
✶ Over thinker - Ingrid is very likely to stress over just about anything. She tries to think of multiple different possibilities or reactions to something so she can be prepared for them and can sometimes end up reading too far into something and taking it the wrong way.
✶ Altruistic - While many would see this as a strength, Ingrid takes it a bit further. She tends to focus on others to the point of being self-sacrificing. She doesn’t often pay attention to her own needs until everyone else is taken care of.
Fears:
✶ Isolation - Ingrid can’t stand being alone or left behind. She’d be completely lost without her friends and ends up withdrawing into her own mind quite a bit when left alone.
✶ Losing People - Ingrid doesn’t handle people leaving or loss of life well, which is one of the many reasons why she is so protective and willing to put others' needs before her own.
Intelligence: Ingrid’s of average intelligence. She has the education of a noble, though doesn’t often put that to use.
Character’s soft spot: Any of her friends.
Values: Ingrid values her friends and family, the ones that stick by her side.
General Sociability: She tends to get along with almost anyone, having a very relaxed demeanor around people most of the time. She’s very good at adapting to the group she’s with.
Religion or Cults: Ingrid is now learning more about Shalherana with Daeron as her mentor and is part of the White Iris.
Affiliations: The Merry Misfits and the White Iris.
Alignment: Neutral Good.
