APPEARANCE
Gwenyhfar is a tall girl, standing at 5'11", somewhat lean and rangy in build with subtle curves at her hips and breasts. She considers her nut-brown skin with it's rosy undertones to be her prettiest feature, with her brown-ish gold eyes fringed with long, soot black lashes a close second. Her beaky nose is her worst feature, and the long, thin knife scar that runs from left eyebrow to cheek (just narrowly missing the eye itself) simply provides her face with more character. She wears her wavy, mid-back length soot black hair up in a messy bun that allows tendrils of hair to escape and frame her face. Due to her skin's natural coloration, she rarely bothers with cosmetics, seeing them as frivolous frippery that has no place in her life. And as for clothing, she prefers comfortable, wide-legged trousers and tunics for when she is experimenting with ales and other drinks as the well worn garments won't be harmed by stains. For when she is on duty serving in her pub, she wisely switches to skirts, slightly tightened bodices and embroidered tunics since she feels that no one wants to be served or give custom to someone who looks slovenly. In both guises, she is never without several scarves or kerchiefs tied about her person as they can be quite versatile and serve as more than ornamentation.
PERSONALITY
Gwenyhfar is an intelligent young woman with a lively curiosity and hankering for filthy jokes. Whether she is down cellar and busy with her deals or up in her pub serving said brews to Hunters and townsfolk alike, she is thoughtful, observant and open-minded. She is also possessed of a steely core that hates to see anyone treated poorly. As such, she is adamant about seeing to her employees' well being while working, never hesitating to kick out a drunk who might make unwanted advances to the servers. By the same token, she won't allow a Hunter to be shunned while in her pub as she thinks quite highly of those who brave the forest and brig back such interesting objects and tales. Gwenyhfar's employees and regulars are something of an extended family and she treats them accordingly, showing a warmth and affection that most would reserve for their bloodkin.
As her own parents were Hunters, she tends to give them more leeway than most. Their stories thrill her, the items they bring for trade are incredible to her. And if she wants to dote on them a bit, well, what's a pint or two among friends? Though she will never admit it out loud, she admires the Hunters tremendously and wishes with all her heart that she could brave the forest as they do and see some of the things they tell tales of for herself.
She is most comfortable and at home in her cellar, puttering about with ingredients while singing softly to herself. It is there that she can be purely herself and dress and act exactly how she pleases since no one is around to care. However, everyone gets stressed out sometimes and Gwenyhfar is no exception. When under pressure, she tends to turn very quiet with a hint of coolness to her voice and expression. If it's only a minor stress, she simply turns cold until the stressful event or thing is gone. For a major stressor, she not only turns cold, she can become frightening. She will growl under her breath, finger her knives and use her height to full advantage to intimidate those who are causing her undue stress.
