.:Physical Appearance:.
Sidonia's most prominent feature is her long, flaming red hair that she wears mostly lose or braided. Combined with the freckles sprinkling her face, she's easily picked out of a crowd and her people always told her that her appearance would have been a curse had she strived to be a warrior.

.:Personality:.
Sisonia could be described as wary of everyone. She learned early on that she should never put her trust in anyone, no matter how close she is to them, except for her brother. Having lived in the woods with her brother as the only human around her, she often behaves like a wild animal – not ferral but like a shy deer only thinking about survival. She's not very talkative either, often going days without speaking to anyone but her brother.

.:Special Skills:.
The young girl knows every plant that grows in the fields and woods surrounding her village. She helps growing the food for the village she lives in. Sid is also a good archer, but only uses her skills to hunt animals for their meat. She's generally very good with animals, especially with horses.

.:History:.
Sidonia was born as the second child and only daughter to her parents. Her father had hoped for another son and he and the girl had a difficult relationship during her childhood. As a little girl, she was always very trusting and open, running around the village and talking to anyone and everyone. Her laugh was always infectious and she made people happy.
The person she was closest to was her older brother Kay. He has always been the typical big brother, teasing her occasionally but always overprotective, growling if you as much as looked at her the wrong way.

Their relationship only intensified after a fatal turning-point in their lives. Their small village of barely more than ten huts was closer to Azgeda territory than most Trikru settlements and theirs was the first to be attacked as part of a mission to enlarge Azgeda land. Kay was eleven and Sidonia six years old and their parents had tried to prepare them as best as they could in case of such an event. They built a small crawl-space into their, just big enough for the two children to hide in. Kay tried to shield his sister's view when the warriors invaded their home, but she could still se them killing their parents through a peephole and they both heard the screams of the other villagers being slaughtered. They were so scared that they stayed inside the small space for more than a day. Everything was eerily quiet when they finally dared to leave their hiding place, except for the sounds of crows flying around. The home they once knew didn't exist anymore, everything was devastated and nothing more than rubble.

The siblings stayed close to the remnants of their village for a while, salvaging the food the warriors hadn't stolen or destroyed. Sidonia would sneak away to lie down between the corpses of her parents from time to time, but once Kay caught her doing so, he decided they should move on and leave their home behind.
They had never strayed far from their village but they had been taught how to survive out in the wild. Kay did hist best to teach his sister what she'd been too young to learn.
They lived like this for almost two years and were closer to wild animals than children when they were finally found by Scouts from another Grounder village, emanciated and shying away from human contact.

The people of their new village were good to them and Kay eventuallt accepted them as his new family, but Sidonia could never let go of the memory of her parents' murder or of the child she had become living in the wilderness. Recently, she takes more and more chances to sneak up close to the Skikru's territory and watch them, feeling curious about the foreigners and their way of life.
