Looks
she's sort of raggedy, especially her clothes, which are usually ripped and dirty. She has frizzy brown hair and always flushed cheeks. Her eyes are an electric purple, and her skin has a green tinge. Her face is rounded out and soft, giving her that innocent and youthful look. Very skinny and nimble, from years of malnourishment and needing to run away after she steals something.

Clothing
usually very mismatched, no sense of fashion at all.

Personalityon the surface, a very bubbly and excitable person

Personality
on the surface, a very bubbly and excitable person. She's a trickster, and thrives off of playing practical jokes and pickpocketing unsuspecting victims. She gets angry when she's wronged and generally takes her anger out without thinking, although not in too drastic of a way. She lies compulsively, and never really tells anyone anything. At least, not the truth. She's more than happy to tell wonderful tales about herself that never happened. She never really matured fully, because she grew up on the streets with nothing to guide her. She gets self-conscious sometimes when she feels like she's around people who will judge her.

Strengths
lying convincingly, pickpocketing and stealing, convincing people to do things, simple magic, pulling pranks, running and disappearing in a crowd. Making it on her own/being independent.

Weaknesses
it's very hard for her to actually open up to people and tell them about who she really is and what's happened to her. Controlling her anger/impulses, empathizing with people, low self esteem.

Fears
people knowing who she is. Dogs. Thunder. People letting her down. Fire when it is out of her control (if she is the one using it it's fine).

Family
Mother and father unknown to her. No siblings as far as she knows.

Backstory
her parents discovered she was a witch soon after she was born and were horrified. They feared for both their own safety and hers due to stories they'd heard about witches, of being corrupted with power and killing sprees. As a note, most of such stories are urban legends and very rarely actually happen, but rather are blown out of proportion and made to seem more common and severe than they actually are. It scared her parents, and they cast her out, but not before branding her with a Celtic knot to warn anyone who might meet her. After that, she bounced around in orphanages, some of which wouldn't even take her, before deciding she was done and that it was better to risk it on the streets.

Scenario 1
Your OC is in the city of Grimeborn, a coastal town mostly inhabited by those just passing through. It has some inns and shops, but not a lot of permanent lodging. The main attraction is the bustling market, a labyrinth of booths, selling both legal and illegal wares. That's where your OC is right now.
They're browsing when they feel someone bump into them, and then their wallet (or whatever valuable item they might have in their pocket) is gone. They turn around to see a short girl with a mane of curly hair already making her escape into the crowd.

Scenario 2
Make up your own!
