15 * Fisherman’s daughter * Part-time maid
Profile: https://bywitandwhitby.rpginitiative.com...ile&uid=82
Personality: Shy, sensitive, sub-assertive, compassionate, loyal, extremely protective of her family
Main motivations and struggles: Anne was very close with her older sister Alice, who is now miserably married. She's very eager to find a way to 'save' her sister, and this has driven her to accept a part time job as a maid - although she doesn't know yet how the money will help her sister. She just really misses her. To add to that, she is now the oldest of the children at home and the only girl and she feels overwhelmed with all the responsibilities that now rest on her shoulders. She is regularly ill.
Possible connections:
- Fellow fisherfolk
- If your character is poor they might live in the same yard or area.
- Anne left school four years ago, but she might still be in touch with her former classmates.
- Anne attends the services and Sunday school/Girls mission of the local Methodist church, so she might know your character from there.
- She could do with some friends
- Anne gets picked on by other kids for being shy, somewhat sturdier than other girls, and for her siblings (one sister got pregnant out of wedlock recently; one brother killed someone and was hanged for it), so if your character is around her age and has a mean streak, they might be enemies.
- We can probably work out something else/a more concrete relationship. I’d love to hear your suggestions.
