Name: Autumn Avenberry
Gender/Pronoun: cis female, she/her
Age: 7
Birthday: September 22
School/Occupation: Knightside
Hobbies: feeding ducks -- Autumn likes ducks, and likes feeding them- it's the highlight of her day! There's a small duck pond near her house, and she makes a point of having either one of her dads, or her big sis Corrine, take her there after school and on the weekends, to feed the ducks. She's careful to only feed the ducks things like rice and seeds, and will scold anyone she sees feeding them bread to not do that.
hide and go seek -- Autumn likes playing hide and go seek, though she prefers being the one to hide rather than the one to go seek. Being small in size lets her fit into some really good hiding spots that are otherwise some pretty tight squeezes, and thus far among her friends, she's won the most games. Now if only she could learn to keep quiet more often when hiding...
tree climbing -- While looking for a good spot to hide one day, Autumn Autumn discovered the thrill of climbing up a tree. Unafraid of heights, she likes to test her limits and see how high she can climb before she can climb no more, whether because she tires out or because her dads come to come to get her back down. Of course, while she's good at
climbing trees, getting back down is the hard part, which means her dads are often having to retrieve her from her perch up in the branches.
Virtues: it's a big world out there! (curious) -- Autumn is a highly curious child, that wants to know everything about, well, everything! She's constantly asking questions and wanting to know what that thing is, or that this thing does, etc. Although she only just recently really got the hang of reading on her own, and doesn't do well with big words, she likes to try looking through her sister's and their more bookish dad's books, as well.
energetic -- Being a small child, and being one who has discovered the joys of climbing up a tree, Autumn is a very energetic child, who doesn't wear out too easily, and, if it weren't for bedtimes, would stay up for far longer than she should, and even with bedtimes, often ends up staying up later than her sister. Corrine once joked that Autumn 'was like the Energizer Bunny' and it has stuck with the red-haired child since.
playful -- Autumn likes to have fun, and likes to play. She's almost always in high spirits, and doesn't take things super seriously. To her, everything is essentially a series of adventures, or one big game that she's determined to win. Time will tell if this goes away as she ages, but for now, she just wants to have fun!
Flaws: curiosity killed the cat -- Autumn is curious about the world and everything in it. At the same time, she might be a touch
curious, sticking her nose where it doesn't belong, and snooping around where she shouldn't. While she's (vaguely) aware that being nosy is generally seen as a negative trait to have, Autumn just can't help herself- she wants to know stuff!
gullible -- While curious about many things, Autumn is still highly susceptible to misinformation, and has a tendency to believe even the most outlandish of tales, so as long as it's told in a believable manner. Most of what she ends up believing is harmless enough, thankfully, and it can be used to an advantage to stop her from snooping around too much, but there's occasionally a thing or two that causes problems, or at least a headache for her family. Autumn has a habit of changing up the way she does certain things based on whatever the latest thing she believes is; for example, thanks to some teasing from a classroom bully, she's started to avoid apples, believing them to be poisoned, like the poison apple in a certain fairytale...
obstinate -- Like a lot of small children, Autumn is very stubborn, going through a period in her life where she doesn't like being told to do certain things, especially when it comes to bedtimes and (not) climbing trees. She is not above throwing a small tantrum when asked to do something she doesn't want to do, doing such things as foot stomping and acting very huffy. From bedtime to doing chores, or perhaps, to even doing homework, Autumn wants to do the things she wants to do, and not the things she
doesn't want to do.
