You should know that you're just a temporary fix
This isn't a routine with you it don't mean that much to me

appearance;;
First thing you notice about River is her shocking blue eyes. They are framed by dark lashes that aren't the "dream length" long, but they are not short either. Her cheek bones are not any shocking shapes or odd angles, just soft and fit her face nicely. Her nose is not petite, but it definitely isn't large either. It isn't a cute little button nose like she wish it would be, but she thinks its a nice shape. At least it isn't curved like the witch nose. She has a full set of lips, though on her upper lip, the right peak is slightly higher than the left. Something no one else notices except her of course. Her hair is long, and she has a lot of it. She calls it her lioness mane, considering how much she has. Its a sandy brown color, though not quite blonde either. It's darker at the roots but not because she dyed it. It just naturally comes out dark and grows lighter over time.

Her body is athletic and she doesn't quite have an "Hourglass" figure. But she does have some curves. She has legs for sure, and by that I mean healthy, running, in shape legs. Her thighs touch in the middle, something that never really bothered her. She liked it about herself. She just thought it made her a bit different than all the stick thin girls that were running around. She stands at five foot eight inches, average height for a girl. She always joked that she wanted to be super tall so that way she could look down on all the girls that made fun of her. She weighs about 140 lbs, which isn't too skinny for her height. And definitely not over weight as well. Her metabolism is still pretty high, so she pretty much can eat what she wants. At least for now. Though her mom and dad still look good for being in their mid 40's now. So she was hoping she would take after them as well. She does have two birth marks, one is on the back of her right thigh, and it looks like a tan spot the size of a quarter. And the other is right below her right breast, again a tan speckled area the size of a half dollar coin.

Her personal style tends to be pretty casual. She likes her jeans and shorts, casual t-shirts and tanks. Occasionally she gets in a mood to wear a dress, But she usually winds up changing half way through the day to sweat pants and a tee. Her hair is always different. Some days she wants it up, other days in a braid, and then she wants it down and free to do its own thing. She tends to hide behind it when she is upset or embarrassed, letting it fall in front of her face. Her make up, is one of three things normally. Either very natural, with just a swipe of mascara on; intense eyes (cat eye, smokey eye, etc); or bold lips. But never bold eyes and lips at the same time. She felt it was too overpowering for her face when she did both and she would wind up looking like an under-dressed clown.

personality;;
Even though River has a young face for being twenty-two, doesn't mean she is always such an innocent girl. She has a "don't mess with me" attitude and holds her standards high. She doesn't let anyone boss her around, except her parents. She stands her own ground in arguments and doesn't mind calling one out if she knows they are lying or wrong. Though she is humble. If she knows she is wrong, she will admit it and apologize if she was an ass about it. She isn't quite a shy one either, though sometimes its mistaken for that since she is normally rather quiet when she meets new people. She would rather just sit back and listen to them, observe them so to speak. She always rather know more about the other person than them know more about her. Its a trust issue that she inherited from her father over the years. So you can thank him for that.

When angry, she sort of looses her cool. She will snap out and say hurtful things just so the argument will hurry up and be over with. Though that normally just causes things to get worse. Her father and her have been known to scream it out in the kitchen over the years, and her mother has learned to steer clear of them until they have hashed everything out. River is firm in her beliefs and she isn't a huge fan of hunting. But she does it to back up her family, because its the "Family Business". So one could say she is very supportive and loving with her family. She does have a heart under all her rough edges, and if you get to know her, you can see her award winning smile and hear her laughter. She doesn't really have a problem with any creatures of other kinds, as long as they are not killing people. So she tries to steer clear of actually hunting, but normally gets dragged along by guilt of her father.

history;;
River Aubrey Tatium was born on a crisp fall night, in the month of October. She was born to a mother and father and an older brother who fell in love with her the moment he laid eyes on her. The first time she opened her eyes up at her parents, they knew that she would be the perfect addition to their family. She was healthy, strong, a child that could make it in the tough world that was around now a days. She weighed eight pounds nine ounces and was a length of twenty inches. She was as soft as ever and already smiled brightly after a few days. Which of course melted her mothers heart oh so much. She was a perfect child to be born into a family of Hunters. She was rarely sick as a child and was always athletic and ready to do something. She was a ball of energy. She had no problem marching into her parents room in the morning and telling them what they would be doing that day.

Her father started training her at a young age on how to handle guns and what was really out in the world, lurking just under what society called "fake". It was one of the reasons she was home schooled, they didn't want to risk the fact that their daughter might come bursting out with a lesson on how to handle a gun properly or how to kill a werewolf the right way. Anything like that. So they felt it would be for River and her family's own good that they kept her out of school. At the age of thirteen, the girl was a pro at using any kind of gun that could be thrown her way. She could tell you what gun it was, what shells or bullets it used, its shooting range, and how to properly clean it and store it. She was a pro. And her father and brother were extremely proud of her. She was able to out shoot a lot of people and even went around gambling with people at shooting ranges, just so she'd have a few bucks to go to the local arcade with.

During the summer of her 16th year on this earth, something tragic happened to her family. Her brother and her were out in the field, well seasoned even at young ages at hunting. Even though River had expressed she didn't want to hunt, her brother and father dragged her along. She was the best shooter out of the three of them. She walked along with her brother only one hundred yards behind her at the time. She kept her gun up and ready to go, though her finger off the trigger. Her father was up ahead and she could still smell the smoke coming off of his cigar. After a few hours of tracking, it turns out that they were being tracked as well. She found out too late. She let out a small scream when she was slammed hard against her right side, sending her tumbling to the ground. She remembered her head hitting something hard, and her vision becoming blurry as she heard the nasty snarls of whatever creature was hovering over her. She heard her brothers shouts, and then blacked out.

When she came to, she was in her bedroom with a cold ice pack to her head. She hissed slightly as she tried to sit up and a pounding head ache greeted her. She looked around slowly, trying to remember what happened but she couldn't. The last thing she remembers was something hitting her. And that was it. River found out later that day, when she was finally able to crawl out of her bed, that her brother was missing. Her father didn't spare her details, but made her promise that she would at least stick around with hunting until they found her brother. Which she promised. She loved her brother and wanted him back more than anything. She was able to graduate from home school and move into taking some college classes, convincing her parents to actually let her attend the school instead of just sticking to online. She graduated with her Bachelors in Arts.

She moved to Converse, living only an hour from her parents and has kept herself hunting in a way. Though she refrains from killing anyone. She doesn't think that all are bad, but if they go around and start killing people, thats when she will step in. She works at a local gun store, and is one of the best people to talk to there about anything that needs gun power or is considered a "fire arm".

*There is a video in here, just for the fun of seeing what she would be capable of at thirteen.
