General Appearance: In pictures and at a distance, Oeddie comes off as being a tan, leggy, busty blonde, one who works out, possibly. In person she tends to tower over people, and the terms "Amazonian", "intimidating," and "overpowering" tend to come to mind. A thick burn scar twists around the palm her right hand and up her right forearm to just past her elbow, and she has a tattoo of a Thai lion design on her left ankle. Oeddie generally prefers professional attire- business suits, skirts with nice blouses, dresses that show a classy amount of leg without exposing her arms, back, or bosoms, and loafers or pumps with kitten heels. When she's relaxing, she'll wear bermuda shorts with longsleeved t-shirts and flip-flops or sneakers. When dressed for work or interacting with the outside world (grocery shopping, walking the dog, whatever) she makes sure she wears long sleeves that cover her scarred arm and only goes without gloves in the hottest of summer months. She has her wardrobe tailored to fit, giving her a more sleek general appearance that her schoolmarm-ey clothing might suggest. She generally wears her longish hair up in a severe bun for work purposes, or in a marginally less severe French braid. She also wears cat-eye glasses. She wears a minimal amount of jewelry.
Oeddie carries herself with confidence and authority, giving off the impression that she is in a constant state of self-awareness and that she likes and respects what she's aware of. Her attire, generally in softer colors and feminine materials, is a direct attempt at softening the intimidating image that her personality projects onto an already intimidating physical form. Ninety percent of the time, the scarred hand is not noticable and its limited mobility often comes as a shock even to people who have been her friend for some time.
Personality: Oeddie is a happy and composed individual. She recognizes her strengths and her accomplishments as reflections of determination, hard work, and innate talent. Her successes in life have rendered her a bit prideful- she may have been a barefoot farm-girl hick once upon a time, but she wouldn't be caught dead within a half-mile of a Wal-Mart. Her history of abuse has also made her, in some ways, a creature of vanity. She'd never leave the house without makeup, her hair done, appropriate jewelry, and a classy ensemble that totally obscured the ugly scars on her hand and forearm. Her intelligence and hard-won degrees have also given her a bit of a know-it-all complex, and she ultimately trusts her own judgement over that of others.
She likes roses, children, historical fiction, and playing tennis. (And, lately, Wii Tennis.) She does not like romantic comedies, people who are obsessed with their pets, visible reminders of her childhood, or ferrets. (They disturb her somehow.) She used to have anger issues- namely an inability to really fully admit that she felt anger. However, this is no longer the case. When she's angry, she recognizes it and does something about it. When she's furious, which happens rarely, she is usually able to keep her composure until she's alone, and then she generally goes and shreds the tires of the car that belongs to whoever angered her thusly. Happily, she also recognizes that there is really very little in the world that should actually have the power to make her angry in the first place, and she maintains a positive outlook throughout her day-to-day life.
