A very simple weapon carved out of soft wood. The bow is a thin rod of wood, stained very dark with a lighter brown grip around the middle. The string is black and very thin.

Appearance:Lyrah is about 5 feet, 6 inches tall; give or take some. Her overall body build is athletic even though she doesn't do any regular form of physical activity. Her legs are long and slender but are also strong and quick. Her torso is slender with a very slight outline of her abdominal muscles. Lyrah's face is round, but thin with high set cheek bones. Her eyes are hazel - brown and green - most of the time, but they can change color slightly depending on what she’s wearing. She has long eye lashes, but it's difficult to tell because they are light in color at the tips. Her hair is a reddish/dark brown and is thin. In the summer months, her hair turns more red as it is exposed to the sun. It ends a few inches below her shoulders. She has long side swept bangs that cover the right side of her forehead. Lyrah’s skin is pale and does not tan very easily when it’s exposed to the sun. It does, however, burn quite easily which eventually becomes a tan.
Lyrah's clothing consists of a few different outfits.
In warmer weather, Lyrah usually wears dark blue denim shorts with a tight white spaghetti strap tank top that is laced on the top and bottom. She wears dark blue flip-flops or white tennis shoes on her feet. As the weather gets cooler she may put on a red, plaid, button-up, collared shirt that she ties in the front. She also puts on dark blue denim jeans that hug her body all the way to her ankles. She wears a brown leather belt with a rhinestone belt buckle. She may also put on brown cloth boots that fit over her jeans.
When Lyrah is enjoying her time on the beach, her clothes will consist of a two piece bikini. The top a halter that ties around the neck and torso and is black/red/white thin striped. The bottoms are bikini style with the same colors. She also wears a white layered mini skirt over her bottoms and white flip-flops on her feet.
Lyrah carries her wooden bow and arrow in a very small, long black bag that she carries on her back.
Personality:Lyrah is normally a quiet girl. She doesn't speak her mind unless she has to and she enjoys keeping to herself. She can become chatty in a group of people she knows well or if she has something very important to share. She wishes she were more outgoing, but has recently come to terms with her quiet personality.
Lyrah has a hard shell to crack when it comes to getting to know new people. She finds it easier to talk to some people than others. There really is no determining factor to who she finds easier to talk to; it's usually just feeling she gets from being around the person. She also hates talking on the phone and would much rather speak to others in person. She likes seeing peoples’ expressions and it helps her understand others as they talk to her.
Lyrah can bring great leadership skills to the table when she needs to. She can bring a split group together by listening very closely to everyone's opinions and making a good compromise. She is usually very level headed and can think quickly in tough situations. She can listen to many peoples’ opinions at once and come up with a plan that makes them all happy, for the most part anyway.
Original World: Twilight Town
Current Residing World: Twilight Town
History/Background:Lyrah was born and raised in Twilight Town. She has a very normal family consisting of a mother, father and younger sister. Her mother is a kind woman who works in one of the local shops selling weapons and other defense items. When she was young, her mother began teaching her archery as it was a good defensive art. Her mother had been taught as a child and decided to pass on her knowledge of it to Lyrah. Her father is hard-headed and stubborn. He works at the local middle school as the principal. She attended the local school system all her life and graduated at the top of her class. Her younger sister is 14 years old and is a freshman at the local high school. Her and Lyrah have always gotten along generally well, but they do disagree at times. Don’t siblings always? They are each other’s best friend and have gotten into a good deal of trouble as kids.
Lyrah made a small group of friends that she became very close with. She had little desire to be among any other group of people. The group often spent their time at the beach and working on school projects. They did fundraisers around the town for their school and they often participated in the school plays.
During school Lyrah noticed the world around her slowly begin to change. Heartless started making their way into the city and causing trouble among the citizens. They would sneak into the school and attack the staff and students. The high school was once shut down for a week while people tried to fight off the dark attackers. Mysterious people known as "Keyblade Wielders" would come from time to time and scare the creatures of darkness away. Lyrah envied their strength and the progress they were making against the Heartless. She never had the courage to speak to any of them, but she enjoyed waiting for them to come and enjoyed watching them fight as she sat on the rooftops of Twilight Town.
At graduation from high school she decided she wanted to travel and help the Keybladers in their fight against the evil organizations. She had been considering it sometime before, but officially announced her plans at graduation. Many of her friends left Twilight Town after graduation with their families trying to escape the Heartless. Lyrah has been traveling around Twilight Town perfecting her archery and learning all she can about the Keybladers. She has the dream of finding one of them someday and officially joining their cause.
She does not have a gummi ship and, therefore, can only travel around the boundaries of Twilight Town. She also has little interest in owning a Keyblade, but she also wishes to fight the Heartless. She does not know of any way to fight them without a Keyblade, but she may be able to make herself useful another way unless, by some miracle, the Keyblade finds her.
Role Playing Sample:The sun was setting, lowering itself into the glittering ocean and turning the sky a bright gold and red. A lone girl was walking slowly through the sand, touching the water with her feet slightly as the waves rolled in. She wore a striped bikini swimsuit with a layered white skirt. She held her white flip-flops and red plaid shirt loosely in her left hand.
As she turned her greenish brown eyes to the east to gaze at the darkening sky, the salty wind picked up and ruffled her long red/brown hair which contained a large white flower. She sighed audibly and stopped walking.
The brightness in her eyes dimmed and a worried look crossed her face. What was she going to do now? She wanted so bad to leave this world and fight to save not only Twilight Town, but all of the worlds from darkness. She had perfected her archery, in her eyes anyway and she was ready to face some actual danger. Not that fighting the "spirits" in the trees and bushes wasn't fun, it just wasn't accomplishing anything...
When would her time come?
