Her hair is a boring shade of sepia brown and lacks much shine. Naturally her skin is peachy-orange but do to lack of sleep it is the color of flax. Her eyes are a bright shade of caribbean green, but they are usually blood shot. They are almond shaped and average sized. Her eyebrows are thin and have an exaggerated arch. She wears bright blue eye paint on her eyelids and bright pink blush. Her lips are full, wide and messily painted with red lip paint. Rin's nose is flat, wide and turned up. Her face is wide and angular and her cheeks and chin are sharp. Under her eyes she has dark bags.
She is short(5'1) with narrow shoulders, and is slightly chubby. Her torso is wide but mainly flat but with no muscular definition. She is rather busty and and has wide hips.
Her voice is low and rough, but has a somewhat pleasing sound to it. When she walks she can seem a bit dizzy.

The trim of her robe is white. Under the robe she has tan leggings which reach down to her ankles. She does not wear shoes. The only jewelery she adorns herself with are one inch thick saffron bracelets on her ankles.
Weapons: None.
Personality:
Rin hates to sleep because she has had awful nightmares from an early age. Due to lack of sleep she is somewhat scatter brained and moody. The nightmares cause her to do whatever she can to stay awake; from recklessness to books to tinkering with things to art to romance if it will keep her awake she will do it. The avoidant attitude does not only apply to sleep but to everything else. If something is bothering her that she can not control she will avoid the problem. Like wise is she can fix something she will put all her effort into doing so.
Though it may not seem like it she is a committed person she is. She holds commitment above everything else, but her relationships with her 'lovers' mean almost nothing to her. This is because she considers them a one time thing and she will not hesitate to tell her 'lovers' that. Yet if she got into a serious relationship she would give it 100% and would stop flirting with other people all together. When she cares about someone she will give them everything, unless they want to take away her freedom. If you try to take Rin’s freedom then she will yell at you.
It is hard to get Rin angry, but some things set her of like a loose cannon. If you try and control her or hurt those she cares about you are going to get yelled at. That being said her bark is way worse than her bite, though she is a loud and furious looking when she yells she has no fighting skills what's so ever.
She is very stubborn and will not stop until she gets her way, she is also determined. If she is strongly believes in something she will give it her all. Rin always gives 100% to everything she cares about, but if she does not care for something she will not work for it. If you try and force her to do something she does not want to she will refuse to do it, unless she cares for you. If you are a friend or a member of her family or a person she sees as important to her she will do anything (except loose her freedom) for you.
Outwardly she is warm, friendly, lively and charismatic. She will hook someone with into an interesting conversation and next thing they know they are having a cup of tea with her at a local tea shop. That is not to say everyone likes her, many people would see her as vulgar or strange, but that doesn’t really bother her. Rin does not care for what other people think. If you are human and within ten years of her age she will not hesitate to flirt with you, but will stop flirting if it is making you uncomfortable. She is trusting to a fault and will never doubt what a person has said, but if they betray her trust she will never forgive them. She is also very protective of those who she cares about and if you hurt someone she loves she will hate you. Though she is trusting someone will not become important to her quickly; you would have to know her very well and have shown that you truly care about her before you become her friend.
Background:
Rin was born in the lower ring of Ba Sing Se to an old fashioned yet quite accepting father and a calm and quite mother so her upbringing was fairly normal. She wasn’t. That of course was not noticeable when she was born. When she came out she came out crying, like most babies. As a child she proved to be quite clever saying her first words at one year old and speaking in full sentences by four.
Though when she was five things took a turn for the worse, no nobody died, Rin began having really bad nightmares(and she still has them) so she didn't get much sleep, actually there were many times were she purposefully stayed up all night. This caused her to be quite clumsy during the day. She was also an adventurous spirit; and plus she didn't like that she felt sleepy all day so she became an adrenaline junkie of sorts; no tree was left unclimbed, no alley left unexplored, and no cabinet was left unopened when it came to Rin. The mix was a dangerous one; because of it she tended to get many scratches and injuries, breaking her arms a total of three times and her legs a twice.
Yet her father did not have the heart to yell at her; he had grown up in a family were his father left his mother when he was only ten. They got by, but ever since then he considered men who hurt a woman dirty scumbags and had a hard time yelling at women. Her mother also was not the type to scold, so Rin was pretty much allowed to do anything she liked.
When she was nine Rin discovered two new hobbies. Drawing and scrolls. She found that they made her feel even more awake than climbing around. Besides Rin loved new things and scrolls were full of them. She would devour scroll, by scroll just to find everything new. Yet it was not enough just to know the stuff, she had to try it with her own hands, she would tinker with basic mechanics, bandage wounds on animals and draw out the human anatomy.
One day while drawing the muscles Rin found that she loved to draw as much as she loved to read. Picking up a brush she began painting everything she saw and once that got boring she began to draw everything in her head. One day Rin wants to become a traveling artist in the hopes that she could document the world threw pictures.
Rin had many friends as a child, some of whose names she did not even know, she would drag them on wild 'adventures' threw tree's and alleys. Most parents were not to happy with Rin being such a bad influence on their children, but in many cases there was nothing they could do. Out of desperation over half the parents banned their children from playing with Rin, but that never bothered her too much.
When Rin was eleven, her and the children were playing prince and princesses; no girl wanted to be the princess because in this version of the game the princess had to give the prince a kiss on the cheek, so Rin stepped up. When she gave the boy that kiss her heart sprung up, she thought she was in love. The relationship went on for whole day when Rin decided she didn't love the boy. To honor her commitment though she went through one more week of the relationship and told the boy they needed to break up. Soon she found another boy she liked and then another and even a few girls. She liked the sheer thrill of the relationships, but she wasn't to happy with having to stay committed to someone she didn't love for so long so she decided to tell her 'lovers' beforehand that she didn't love them and the relationship was only until she got bored. The ones that agreed usually stayed with her for a day or so. Luckily for her, her parents had no clue of their daughter’s doings so she was still free to do as she pleased. She still spent a lot of her free time drawing, adventuring, and reading, but romance has become a huge part of her life.
When she was sixteen she decided to help her parents make money so she decided to become a waitress at a local tea shop. They were a little reluctant to hire someone who as wild as Rin, but they were a desperate, so she got the job.
Recently she got a little carried away and ended up going much to far with a boy (if you catch my drift). A month later she found that she was pregnant. Not wanting to worry her parents Rin choose not to tell them of her pregnancy. She also choose not to tell the father of her child not wanting to get him involved.
Sample RP:
“Stop day dreaming. I'm going to have to fire you if you don't stop sleeping on the job.” Angrily said the tea shop's manager. Rin picked her head up. This was the second time this week she had nearly fallen asleep, but she knew it wasn't too important. Her boss was to desperate to fire her.
With a small chuckle the groggy woman said, “'Right back to work.” and stumbled over to the kitchen. Picking up the near by tray she walked over to the kitchen. “So what slop are we serving today?” Asked the giggled the girl.
“Nice to see you're being optimistic.” Replied the tea maker sarcastically.
“Well someones gotta keep you guys from ruining the mood.”
Shaking his head he gave the green eyed girl a few cups of tea. “Take these to that far of table.”
“Yes sir!” She replied with mock obedience. Then she pivoted and swerved over to the left, nearly spilling the tea in the process. Well nice to see the tea has better balance then me, thought the young woman and walked over to the table. Sitting at the table were about three people around her age, they seemed like they would be alright to talk to. As she served them tea she listened to what they were talking about. Apparently the Earth King had recently held a party for his just-a-bear.
“Honestly, could the king do anything better then throw parties? There's a war going on for sprites sake!” Growled a blue eyed girl.
“War? I never heard of any war.” Said Rin a bit shaken.
“Just like all the others! Everyone I've met in this town, save a few refugees, know nothing about anything!” Yelled the foreigner.
“Calm down. Maybe news hasn't spread ye-” The waitress relied only to be interrupted.
“CALM DOWN! The war had been going on for one hundred years and no one in this cursed city knows anything about it!” The girl screamed. The others around the table looked as if the worst thing that could probably happen to them just happened. The waitress didn't like the look of it.
“Hmm...” Rin mumbled bitting her lip. She had never heard of a war, plus this foreigner sounded crazy. Then again there always seemed to be new people coming from nowhere, but they came because Ba Sing Se was the safest city in the world. Right? Though it always puzzled her that the people never mentioned their home. Maybe this girl was telling the truth, but either way Rin was sure this was not a good place to talk about it. It would cause such a ruckus that the manager would kick these people out out. “Why don't you report the war to the authorities.” She replied in a soothing tone.
“They'd brainwash me. They did it to Kai.” The blue eye woman said with a depressed tone.
“Braaa...iiiin....waaaa...sh?” Rin stuttered. She couldn't help but believe the girl. Though honestly Rin would believe anyone.
Suddenly another member of the group spoke up, “Miss, please don't tell anyone about our friends outburst, she's insane.”
“Ohh... Okay.” Rin replied nodding. Well that made much more sense. Of course there was no war. Of course they didn't brain wash people. Though she couldn't help but wonder about the glare the girl gave to her companion.
