Write the first paragraph of your page here.

Appearance
With rag-doll layered hazel hair and soft amber eyes, Rust is a small stature squirrel faunus, with long furry ears. Her long ears resemble that of a Abert Squirrel, and the fur matches the color tones of her hair.

She wears a long sleeve black shirt, mostly to hide the scars from her youth. The scars on her arms bare a reminder of her past as a slave and she hides them to desprately try to hide and hopefully forget her past. Along with her black shirt, she wears a matching black skort. The skirt layer of her skort is see-through so it's obvious she has shorts beneath it.

Over her standarad outfit she wears a Rust-colored over coat, with her emblem printed on her back. The over coat is one of her precious belongings, she carries it everywhere. Beside her belt and brown fur boots, she doesn't wear any accessories or anything of complicated patterns.

Personality
Despite her past, Rust's behavior and personality is light hearted and positive, often making horrible puns in the attempt to make others smile and laugh. She likes talking with other people. In first-time-meetings she always uses titles like "Sir" or "Miss", being very proper and polite, but once she knows someone the properness and formality is lost.

She usually acts like there's no such thing as discrimination against Fauna and shakes off insults, but in truth the topic and the insults hurt her and she wishes everyone to be treated equally. She values people not on their races or appearance, but their morals and character and she will defend others when their character is considered poor.

Due to her fauna heritage, Rust has few quirks that she tends to get embarressed by. One example is similar to how people snort when they laugh, but for Rust, she 'squeaks'. Other times when she squeaks is when she attempts to yell at someone or screams. She's easily startled by loud noises or sudden actions, however quick to shake off the startle.

Backstory
Rust was orphaned at a young age, and instead of being left in an orphanage she was sold into slavery. She was sold to a cruel businessman who beaten and tortured her for his own amusement, thinking her, a faunus child, as nothing more but another expendable animal.

Then one day during a trip between Kingdoms, Grimm attacked the Caravan that was transporting the businessman as well as Rust. Taking her chances, Rust fled the scene, leaving the man and his companions to die.

Rust found her way to Vale, and through a chain of luck and kindness, she was found by the elderly owner of a Coffee Shop and Bakery. The man took Rust into his care, giving her a job at the shop and a home. Rust worked for the shop owner for several years, and even when he passed away, Rust continued to keep the shop running.
