Despite her birth name being Friday, she
doesn't often hear the word when others
are referring to her. Instead, she's better
known as "Badger". This is partly due to
the fact that's she's not partial to intro-
ducing herself, but the main thing to
blame is her crawling around in the dark.
Sometimes only seen with a flash of a
porch light or the corner of an eye, her
black and white pelt is often mistaken
for the animal. It would take far too
long to correct the mistake at this point
and Friday has elected that she doesn't
really care anyways. "Skunk", however
...skunk is unacceptable and will result
in a short indignant bark as she retreats
to safety.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- Personality -
xxxxShe has an icy stare, but her attitude is much more forgiving. Although she tends to keep her mouth glued shut, Friday is not hostile or snappish in any way. She does not consider herself "good" with people. Although she holds herself with pride and confidence, she either feels like she's a bumbling idiot or everyone else around her is being a bumbling idiot. Very rarely does she escape a social situation without something going wrong. If she were superstitious, she might go as far to say that people are bad luck. Well... she is sort of superstitious... but that's besides the point. Friday's a bit clueless and awkward when in civilization, as she's not used to it, but it's best to not bring it up. Although she likes to think she's good enough not to hold a grudge, she's very unlikely to acknowledge someone who's thrown a nasty comment. She's a bit sensitive about words pointed her way, but she always acts very mature about it...if giving the silent treatment and walking away can be considered mature.... Her inner monologue is quite...active. Inside her head, Friday talks quite a bit and her sarcastic side flares up likes a wildfire. However, when she does actually speak, one would never guess that he thoughts are such a jumbled mess. Her words are precise and she means every single one of them. She would not stoop to insults, but she does have a way to make people feel stupid when she wants to. Friday seems to side neither with introvert nor extrovert. She does not feel that she's gaining any energy when around or away from people. She feels she gains energy when she's sleeping. Friday can be very stubborn and firm. Once her mind's made up, that's that. Although she typically doesn't argue, one would not want to test her, as she would win. Overall, she seems to be a cryptic creature, but she's not so different from everyone else, really.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- Relationships -She doesn't stick around long enough to develop relationships with much of
anyone. Besides, she's met so many people that everyone's she may have
remembered has started to get mixed with each other. She hardly remembers
anything from her childhood, so she has no family to speak of.
- Hobbies -
Calligraphy- How does one write with paws? Friday's found wedging a quill between two of her toes and hooking the center with a claw to keep it from sliding too far to be oddly successful. Writing has been an interest of hers ever since she saw humans doing it and she's devoted a lot of her time to learning how the process works. After years of practice, she's able to focus on the artistic value of her letters, making them bold, yet elegant.
Bird calling - Often, Friday ends up with too much spare time.
After all, walking all day only occupies your feet. In an attempt
to not be bored out of her mind, she took to listening closely to
the birds around her quite a while ago. She started to try calling
back to them. At first, her whistles sounded nothing like a bird's,
but over time, she grew much better. Although one could notice
the difference if they paid enough attention, she became good
enough to get the little creatures to peer at her curiously and
sometimes even hop a little closer to her for a better inspection.
Because she moves so much, there's often a new trill for her to
learn, but there have been moments of desperation where she's
attempted hissing at lizards or buzzing at bugs. She is not proud
of these moments.
Tagging - This initially started up by accident, a result of
spilling her ink, but she quickly decided it was a good idea
of keep track of where she had been. Every time Friday sets
up camp, she'll draw a small, hollow circle on a nearby rock
or tree. Her ink is very prone to stain, so the mark is likely
to stay there for quite some time, even if exposed to rain.
So, it proves itself useful in terms of direction and such.
Admittedly, though, it's become sort of a habit. Sometimes,
she'll get carried away and find herself looking at a wall of
circles. She's done it so much that things just don't feel right
if she goes a day without drawing at least one. No one
must know about this, though. She kind of likes the rings
being anonymous and wouldn't want anyone to use them to
track her down.

Friday's "occupation" has questionable
legitimacy. Mainly, she's a traveler, but
there's more too it than that. If she had
to put a lable on her task, it would be
"a warning". The areas she treks through
are often unexplored and treacherous.
Regardless, she continues on. She'll
take great care to scout out the entire
place before leaving. Once finished,
she'll pass on the word of what she
found. If there's no one to tell, then
it's time for her to use pen and paper.
Whatever the situation, warning will
be left behind.
In all of her exploring, Friday will occasionally find bobbles that hold some value. Gems, salvageable clothing, traps, herbs,
charms...or even things as simple as fresh meat could be found in her path. Although it does not happen particularly often
due to her attitude, she will sometimes set up a camp in a populated area and offer her goods up for sale. It's easier to pry
things from her paws if one is a lone traveler, though, as she's much more fond of a quick exchange. If she happened to
have a lot of time on her hands, she may even have maps of areas she's examined up for purchase.

Accessories:
Cloak - Friday typically keeps her red cloak folded up and hidden away, but she'll pull it out when the days are cold or wet. The material it's made from is both well insulated and waterproof (but only on the outside). It's just short enough so it doesn't trail on the ground when she wears it. The large hood that can be flipped up has been used many a time to hide her identity or simply make her look formidable enough that people leave her alone. Golden flecks of string give the appearance that fireflies are trapped in the fabric. She's learned to be careful when wearing it in dangerous places, as the spots are actually quite reflective and have resulted in quite a bit of trouble.
Harness - She has to wear this a tad more often than she'd like due to all of her bags being attached to it. Although it's about as light as such a thing can be, the straps can bunch her fur or become irritating. The only buckles on the thing are for attaching packs to, so she doesn't have any trouble slipping it off and on.
Compass - Although she has a compass on a band that can be worn as a necklace, Friday does not use it nearly as often as she should. She relies much heavier on her tagging system and is occasionally bothered by how it bumps against her chest when she walks too fast.
Fingerless gloves - Because she doesn't like the feeling of mud under her paws or walking across thorns, she has a couple sets of gloves that she sometimes takes out of her bag. Although...this doesn't really validate their existence since it only covers one of five paw pads per foot. Honestly, she just kind of likes the way the look on her. Seeing them on her paws makes her feel like an assassin or archer or something like that. Admittedly, she's run into a few things while staring at them and had to take them off.

- Quirks -
-Friday has a bit of a problem with her shiny beads and glowing eyes attracting bugs.
-Her bags are always organized...excepting one of them, which has been deemed the junk bag.
-She keeps both herself and her belongings very clean, getting very annoyed when there's no water nearby to do so.
-Very agile and is able to do flips and such. Granted, she learned this while trying to make glow in the dark trails with her eyes, but that's not important.
-Despite having teeth and claws, she keeps an opal knife on her just in case.
