nervous, intelligent, curious

Luna was raised in an orphanage in where she was abandoned at the door as an infant. Raised there all her life, she feared being adopted for it’d mean leaving the other children behind, and so she’d hide from potential adopters and evade any chances of adoption.

 
From a young age she showed a strong potential in magic and tinkering. She’d spend her free time studying and crafting items in strange ways, making things glow, noises appear from items around the orphanage when touched, and things she touched smell like various scents; flowers, the sea, you name it.

 
As she grew up, she acted as the big sister to the other children she’d always wished she’d have. She cared greatly for the needs of the other children, and wept when they’d leave, even though she was happy for them. She grew up being told stories by the caretakers there of heroes and great adventure and dreamt of being one herself one day, and would tell all the children the same stories she grew up hearing.

 
Despite her best efforts taking on tasks from wherever she could get, be it slaying monsters on local farms that needed protection, or just running errands, there often wasn’t enough food to go around, and so when she was old enough, she decided to venture out into the world in search of both adventure and a way to send back gold to support the orphanage.
