Name: Hrafntyr "Tyr" Nordskov
I have no idea how to pronounce that. You might need to include a pronunciation guide haha.

Name meaning: Her nickname, Tyr, comes from the Norse god Týr who is the god of law and heroic glory, in some cases, Týr is referred to as the god of wisdom, Týr in Old Norse literally means "god". Her biological name is Hrafntýr meaning "Raven god" which is an Old Norse name of Odin, the all-father of the Norse gods and a great seeker of knowledge, Odin is often depicted in having two ravens who whisper information, that they have collected, in his ear. The family name Nordskov is Danish, meaning "North woods", so her name can be translated to "Raven god of The North Woods".
Oh nice.

Plot: Tyr is attending college at age 15, because of family pressures and "traditions". I'm planning on making it kind of a romantic drama-comedy.
Hmm, is this place in current time? If so, I feel as though it's a bit of a stretch, but if it's a romance drama comedy, it could work well if executed properly.

Age: 15-19

Race: Dad is broadly Nordic, Mom is East Asian and Italian

Family: Baleyg Nordskov (Father), Giovanna Nordskov (Mother), Luka Nordskov (Older sister), Freyr and Freya Nordskov (Cousins), Asagrim Nordskov (Paternal Grandfather)

Background: Hrafntyr "Tyr" Nordskov was born to Baleyg Nordskov, a man of Nordic heritage, and Giovanna Nordskov (née Kim), a woman of Asian-Italian origins, when the duo was 25 years old, Baleyg was the son of a fishing industry tycoon who had complete control and authority over the city's fishing industry, as the title suggest, and Giovanna was a simple waitress at a Chip Shop. Hrafntyr was named after the Norse god Odin, a month after she was born, by selection they placed runes that represented certain Norse gods and goddesses and baby Hrafntyr picked the rune that represented Odin and a raven feather, which made her older sister Luka jealous because Luka was named after the Old Norse word meaning "Close" which is believed to be the origin word for Loki, the trickster god. Hrafntyr grew up in a small city called Laguz, her home was a large estate, about 7 acres, with a large stream cutting through, at age 1 her parents began teaching her the alphabet every day, every hour in a attempt of having a smarter and more successful daughter, when she started talking they began teaching her basic math, writing, reading and science, making her study everyday instead of playing with other children, but whenever she messed up or began slacking she would either be tied to a tree branch upside down, tied to a tree trunk with a "Do not Pity" sign above her head or either parent would give her 5 minutes to correct herself before they pressed a hot iron stamp on her skin, luckily they never did the last one, they threatened to do it, but they never did it, they've done it to Luka though, in the past.
WOAH.

When she turned 5 her parents opted out of her going to school and homeschooled her instead with a help of a tutor, the specifically told the tutor to teach 5 year old Hrafntyr anything you would teach a child that was 3 years older than her, because at the time she was already as intelligent as a 2nd grader, the tutor obliged and the patterned continued until Hrafntyr got a 119 (slightly above average) on her IQ score at age 12, as a congratulatory gift her paternal grandfather Asagrim offered her anything she wanted, Hrafntyr looked out the window and pointed at a bundle of 10 trees that were somewhat close to each other, had a stream running through it and was a half mile away from the nearby forest, she told her grandfather "I want a paradise home in the trees, close to the heavens but not too far away from the life giving ground" Asagrim, chuckled and agreed to build a luxurious treehouse, with beautiful spiraling stairs, bridges that connected to different parts of the house, stained glass windows, a see-through floor to look at the stream from above, working electricity, internet service, running water, solar panels, compost toilets, 3 types of support systems, a Japanese bell and a working kitchen, it cost $500,000 and it took a year and a half to complete but Asagrim said it was worth seeing a rare smile from Hrafntyr, along with the treehouse Asagrim also gave Hrafntyr, two Norwegian Forest cats, a Tibetan Mastiff, a Akita Inu and a Newfoundland dog, along with two goats.
Dang, her family's rich.
