You're Beautiful -Open + Joining/Introduction/injured-

[ALYSSA,]

[align=center][div style="border:0px transparent;width:480px;text-align:justify;font-size:9pt"][font=verdana]Injures were a lot more complicated in this world than they had been before. A simple scrape could lead easily to an infection without clean plasters, medicine or cleaning pads. Alyssa had learnt that the hard way once she left her small village home-town: there had been nothing left for her in her birth home, so stupidly she had taken nothing, which also included necessary medical supplies. Scars littered her hands and knees from months of endless wandering in woods. Her most obvious injury was the unevenly stitched scar across her face on her cheek; she had won a loaf of bread for the open wound, fighting a man twice her age with nothing but a rusty machete and her determination. That bread had kept her alive for a few more days, and if that had meant a scar on her face, who was she to complain?

The dark haired girl ran a hand over her hair, a habit she had always had. Her normal hair only reached her collar bones, but when it was plaited up in French braids only small tuffs of black hair poked out at the nape of her neck. Alyssa said nothing as she arrived, her heavy-soled boots making no sound as she gingerly stepped closer and closer. An injured joiner wasn't interesting news anymore, not in a rough place like this, and Alyssa wondered how long the woman would last. She looked nice. Too nice, probably, for The Badlands.

[spoiler=TAGS]+ Alyssa
+ Fourteen years old | Born February 6th 2002
+ Lives in The Badlands | Grunt of War
+ Female | She/her
+ Asexual | Single, not looking
+ Carries throwing stars with her at all times
+ Faceclaim: Isabelle Fuhrman
+ APPERANCE: Alyssa is described as being only 5'0 in height and very skinny for her age. She has dark brown/borderline black hair that is braided up into French braids, however her hair only reaches her collarbones so the ends of the braids stick out. Her eyes are dark and wide; she used to get bullied by her siblings and called Anime freak because of it. Her skin is very pale and unhealthy looking; across her cheek is an unevenly stitched scar from a knife attack. She has three piercings on each lobe and is often seen wearing black jeans, black boots and a green bomber coat. Never is Alyssa seen smiling or looking happy.
+ PERSONALITY: Unsympathetic, cold-hearted, quiet, strategic, blunt, child solider, unapproachable, always on edge, unintentionally rude, lots of trust issues, has a deep hatred for her parents, pessimistic.
+ HISTORY: Alyssa was only young when the world changed, so her memories of "the normal world" are hazy and (mostly) incorrect. After her siblings died from gun related violence, she witnessed her pregnant mother commit suicide. It was only few weeks into the apocalypse when she was orphaned and ever since has been travelling to find the right place to stay. Being a lone wolf from as young as eleven has made her stronger and colder towards normal life. She accidentally stumbled upon The Badlands and now resides there, living in an empty apartment by herself.[/spoiler]
