Patricia "Trick" Landers

Personality
Patricia has a habit of coming off sort of... odd. She talks too fast and gestures emphatically not to mention her tendency to spout random factoids when they occur to her. Imaginative, naive, trusting, carefree childlike, oblivious; these are all words that describe Trick. She has a rather innocent outlook on life and often looks to the bright side of things. She's trusting to a fault, in fact she doesn't really know how not to trust people. She's the type that doesn't truly understand the hatred in the world.

She was picked on somewhat as a child, do to her odd nature. She wore her clothes inside out to protect against fairies and insisted there were monsters in the fluorescent lights. However, their taunts went by unnoticed by Trick, she's a little on the dim side - at least when relating to people. When Kyle died she couldn't understand what had happened, how he could no longer be around. She could not fully comprehend why he couldn't be with her anymore or why those people took him from her.

She rather childlike and innocent in her mannerisms and in her thinking.

Likes: Butterflies, spicy foods Dislikes: Fluorescent Lights Pet Peeve: People who pronounce schedule as 'SHEDule"

Appearance
Patricia stands at 5'6" and 123lbs. Rather tomboyish her body is basically one long column of mostly legs. She isn't flat chested (she wanted me to clarify) however as far as cup size goes they're on the smaller end ("hey A's were always good in school!"). Her eyes are a bright vivid blue with a greenish ring around the outside. Her hair is shortly cropped in a spiky layered inverted bob, while naturally a sort of dingy blond colour it is (for the moment) a bright fire engine red. Her nose is a little crooked (she broke it twice) but as far as noses go it's rather cute - petite and upturned. Her smile is wide and (thanks to braces when she was 12) straight, her lips ... well rather unremarkable, not thin or full the only real remarkable thing might be the freckles above her top lip (there are five, they aren't really above so much as right on her lip line and they aren't noticeable unless you really look). Her nails are almost always cracked or bitten and her hands are callous from climbing over fences and trees and whatever else. As far as clothes go she doesn't really pay attention to fashion trends - a pair of bootleg jeans (usually with the knees torn out from wear and tear) and a graphic tee shirt (these come in various colours and designs) and zip up hoodie (again in various colours and designs). Her favourite item are her bright teal Chuck Taylor hi-tops, they're a little wore now so the white soles have turned a sort of yellowish...
