Thistle

Thistle is a character played by mira (Syzygyrior).

Appearance
Thistle appears to be an anthropmorphic fox with pinkish fur, flowers, vines, and moss of indeterminate species growing out of her body. Most of these are not visible, but her head has red flowers, and her tail visibly has vines and leaves attached to it. She is about eight feet tall. She keeps her hair is tied behind her ears in a simple ponytail.

She is always seen wearing a simple pink and purple over-the-shoulder dress, depicting a skyline during either the sunrise or the sunset, and durable white socks. Thistle and her clothing are always pristine without so much as a single blemish.

Bio
One of the first citizens of Deville, Thistle is an alseid (a type of nature spirit) from the Twilight Forest. A trained horticulturist, she spends most of her time alone in her garden, exploring, or fishing. New to the overworld, she has approached this strange new place with quiet wonder. At first she kept her distance and avoided any conversation, but has slowly started opening up over time.

Thistle has professed to be "more or less immortal" and has hinted at various odd quirks of her biology, but has revealed little in the way of specific details. After a fateful encounter with the entity known as "SAPRONOSIS", Thistle has been feeling sore and ill, and will occasionally become disoriented and act strangely. There is something terribly wrong with her.

Personality
Equal parts kind and apathetic, Thistle is a mysterious and hard person to read. She isn't especially good at expressing herself or her emotions, but is quite trusting and never unsettled by even the strangest residents of Sockscraft. Slow both to anger and joy, she is gentle, quiet, and reserved, but also seems to be quite prone to purple prose and long, winding anecdotes about the Twilight Forest. Highly observant; knows more about the people around her thank you'd think.

She has a tendency to find the life and times of "mortals", as she would say, simultaneously endearing and overwhelming. Unused to talking to people, and will often miss the social cues of more "normal" people. Feels more comfortable around those of more unusual origin, and those without a limited lifespan.

Trivia

 * Thistle's soul and nervous system are distributed evenly across her body like a network of roots. When grievously wounded, she experiences short term memory loss, and whatever parts of her were damaged heal over time.
 * Has a natural ability to grow plants and more generally, sense biological processes in a radius around her.
 * Her favorite food is Chorus Fruit.
 * She loves to stare at the sun.
 * Adores the sound of the ocean, especially at night. This is why you may often find her at the Fishing Embassy at night.
 * Has a Tarot deck salvaged from damaged cards found in the Twilight Forest.
