General Description:
Appearing dainty from a distance, Quiselin has a lean build, fine features, and delicate hands. They're strong though, used to reigning in and grabbing the halters of beasts much bigger than she is, and good at hanging on in the few instances she's been carried away. She's athletic from helping her father work and from all of the riding she loves to do, but she's managed to keep a softness that tends to hide it.She has mild resting bitch face, but isn't terribly intimidating so much as she just looks like she's eternally thinking about something annoying. Her hair is black or very dark brown in some light, and her eyes are a gray blue that seem to brighten from how expressive her smiles are.
General Dressing Style:
She's not terribly picky, though she appreciates looking good. Her main concern is comfort and clothing that she can easily move around in without getting snagged. The nicer clothing she has for parties and Gathers tends to have bright colors, especially blue.

Flaws:
• Selfish - She tries not to be, but deep down she's more concerned about her own happiness.
• Impatient - Arguments and annoyances that don't end quickly make her want to leave. When she can't actively work towards something she begins to lose interest in it and gets frustrated. She's usually able to get back to what she was doing when and if it returns after a bit of adjustment, but in the meantime she gets distracted with trying to pursue other things. Sometimes this might mean forgetting where she left off with a horse when its been away for a month to go racing because she started to work with a different animal, and sometimes it means she's sleeping with other men because her boyfriend is too busy with his new dragon.

Habits & Mannerisms:
She's likes to put things in her mouth, whether it's the end of a sprig of hay, a pencil, or part of her shirt. When she's not doing that she tends to nibble or softly chew at her own lips.General Personality:
Quiselin can seem aloof at times, but she isn't unfriendly so much as she is prone to looking pensive when she's not engaging with anyone. She doesn't mind spending time alone, but when she's spending time with friends she brightens up. She even enjoys chatting with strangers, she would just rather not disturb them in case they too are comfortable with their own company unless she's feeling particularly bored and can't find a friend to spend time with.She can be irritable, especially for things that annoy her or pointless arguments, and will usually just remove herself from the situation if she can and distract herself with other things. She eventually cools off and returns though, and friends can usually count on her willingness to resume relationships once the spat is over.
