[ ρεяsσηαℓιтү ]
Hevlaska is a very quiet and reserved individual. It's not that she's shy, she just won't speak out of place. Hevlaska is very kind to others when she does interact, though for the most part she is withdrawn. She both loves and hates being around others; Helvaska longs for comfort and enjoys being around others, but on the other side she is also extremely introverted and would rather be by herself out of fear of hurting or being pushed away by them. She is very kind to everything around her and deeply respects nature. Hevlaska spends most of her time in a small forest clearing where she made her home, but will occasionally (cautiously) wander around, as if always looking for something.
[ ιη тнε ραsт ]
When she was young, Hevlaska was bullied for being different. When young, she used to be quite outgoing and the class-clown, not afraid to be different. She didn't mind though, she never took anything seriously. Hevlaska would walk with her head held high past the mocking expressions of others. She was constantly used by others because of her ignorance and carefree nature. This led to constant betrayals from her 'friends' and those she trusted, but she shrugged it off deeming it as normal. However as she got older, she started thinking about what she really wanted and where she was going with her life. Hevlaska was confused, she didn't know what to do anymore. The seemingly harmless remarks pointed towards her how felt like arrows, and she became self-conscious and reserved. She no longer was the entertainer, but the observer. She was no longer a rebellious youth, but a dreamer. She decided it would be best to seclude herself and not get involved in anything else, to protect herself while silently looking out for others.
[ ιη тнε ρяεsεηт ]
Hevlaska is a dreamer; she believes that everything happens for a reason, be it good or bad, and always looks for a purpose. She lives her life how she wants and doesn't let anyone get the better of her, though she does try avoid interacting others as best she can. She made her home in a small forest clearing near a stream, observing and admiring nature around her. She loves plants and flowers, especially roses, and there are several patches of them around the edges of the clearing. Hevlaska likes walking on trails around her home, though she isn't very good directions. Not at all. She gets lost almost immediately, but remains calm and tries her best to find her way back. She will occasionally see others and greet them, but will not interact further in fear of hurting them or herself. It's not that she's violent, but she just doesn't know how to limit her words and actions, mainly due to her lack of social skills. Overall she is very awkward when it comes to others and interacting with them, but she tries to not let it show. When she chooses to interact with someone (it's never more than two people at a time, crowds make her nervous) she does so calmly and is considerate of the other/s. She almost always thinks before she speaks, however occasionally she will sputter random nonsense.
[ ιηтεяεsтs ]
Hevlaska is intrigued by nature and loves to explore her close surroundings and plant. It's through nature that she came to her realization when she was young; "the world is cruel, but also very beautiful" (Mikasa Ackerman quote). Hevlaska wanted to focus on the beautiful world around her and began planting flowers around her home, and eventually along trails and riverbanks. She takes great pride in what she does and doesn't care if the flowers are picked or not- she is actually glad when they are picked, and hopes they are picked out of love or friendship, and will bring happiness to someone who needs it. Hevlaska also likes climbing trees, surprisingly. She loves the feel of wind blowing through her fur and likes laying on the highest branch she can get to. However this poses a problem, as she is afraid of falling and usually hurts herself trying to get down. She loves music and has a strong connection to certain songs, especially ones that she can relate to. She doesn't have a favorite genre and will listen to almost anything, but she particularly loves Imagine Dragons. She is often humming to herself while taking a walk or planting.

Due to how self conscious she is, Hevlaska has an overall negative outlook on most things, including her future. She loves nature and music, but where is she going with her life? She's still unsure, and Hevlaska looks down on herself for it. Hevlaska will preach positive views and how beautiful all living things are, but she rarely takes her own advice. She wishes more than anything for others to be happy and watches from a safe distance, and doesn't think to try to make herself happy. She's goes with the flow of things and makes do with whatever she has, which isn't much. However the few things Hevlaska has collected and kept include a single crystal shard, which Hevlaska believes is a fallen star, and a few preserved flowers she just couldn't bear to see wither.

Amaryllis wrote:Amaryllis met Hevlaska on accident; she was wandering the woods looking for her son when she stumbled upon Hevlaska. Amaryllis tries to get Hevlaska to interact more and open up a bit- Amaryllis feels that Hevlaska would be happier if she was more social and not as closed up.

Arabella wrote:Arabella was later introduced to Hevlaska by Amaryllis. But unlike Amaryllis, Arabella encourages Hevlaska to get though her reserved nature through building confidence and sharing her own experiences.
Hevlaska eventually opened up a bit to Amaryllis and she is one of the few plumes Hevlaska trusts. She also enjoys spending time with Arabella and feels like she can be herself around her. These two plumes changed her life in the simplest way, and Hevlaska has grown to treasure them; someone who is kind to her and accepts her! While she is still slightly anxious around them, it's a big step forward.
[ cнαяαcтεя gяσωтн ]
Hevlaska has been through a lot in her relatively short life, and is much older mentally than she is physically. During the time when she was figuring out who she really is, she learned life is precious and is often taken for granted. That's when Hevlaska turned to planting the beautiful flowers around her home and along trails. Over time she began to see the beauty in the world, and just how much of an impact nature has in everyday life. Hevlaska began observing the simple beauty in nature: the way the birds sing in the morning, the way the clouds move across the sky, the way the stars twinkle at night, and how Hevlaska herself is part of the cycle. While she still doesn't like or trust others, she's become sort of used to having Amaryllis and Arabella around. She's slowly opening up to them and realizing that not everyone is as bad as she put them out to be. Hevlaska now accepts the world as it is, and not what she wants it to be like she did in the past. She understands that not everything is or can be perfect, but has reason nonetheless. Until just recently, Hevlaska would bury her past life deep within her and keep it hidden, but is now learning to just let it go all together, to live and let be, and that her past doesn't define who she is today.
[ σccυραтιση ]
Living in a small home in the middle of the woods, Hevlaska loves crafting with materials around her, even though she's not the best. She loves flowers and spends most of her time gardening and planting, though she doesn't make money for any of her hobbies, she makes do with what she can find around her. She doesn't want to burden anyone by asking for help, even though sometimes she thinks she may need it. Though Hevlaska does tutor and council others, who occasionally give her money for her advice and help, though reluctant to accept it.
