Overall, Erimentha is a calm person, stable enough for others to depend on and wise enough that friends and relatives occasionally seek her opinions when in need of consult. She’s a quick thinker and picks things up easily, and is imaginative enough to apply what she has learned to new and seemingly difficult problems to make them easier to deal with. One of her greatest strengths is her work ethic – she is a hard worker, methodical in her workings and detail-conscious of the overall picture. She enjoys having an organized world, and often turns to organizing when stressed about different situations. These traits make her father seek her aid in their shop, and while she is lukewarm about the man, she does enjoy the day-to-day challenges the market provides.

Along with these traits, she is patient, especially towards young people and tasks she is working on. Good things take time, and she’s willing to wait. In new endeavors she is cautious, always thinking through her options before deciding… and once she has decided upon a course of action, it is difficult to dissuade her. Her stubbornness flaunts itself in these situations – if she believes it to be right, then it is right. If she thinks it is the best option, than it is the best, or she will make it the best.

She has been known to suffer jealousy on occasion, especially in circumstances when someone that was her fan is paying more attention to another, and can turn cold and harsh to the usurper of that attention. She’s a little possessive in that way, but this possessiveness towards people she likes, or people who have earned her respect, earns them a great deal of loyalty from her. She does not suffer disrespect towards the people she likes, and her protectiveness of them can only be called bravery, especially when in the face of someone twice her size or age.

She tends to believe in the good side of people, especially girls and women, but oftentimes is too trustful towards those she has only just met, as she holds others to the standards she set forth for herself. She is trustworthy, so they should be, too. She is responsible for her own actions, dependable and reliable, is honest, and always keeps her promises, and though she is a practical girl and has a strong common-sense code, she mistakenly believes that because she upholds such things, others will, too, by default.

She is religious, and oftentimes aligns herself with the goddess of wisdom and war, Athena; and while she keeps the ethics intact, she is concerned with physical wellbeing rather than spiritual attainment, despite her claims that she would turn to priestess-hood in the future if she cannot become a courtesan.

She doesn’t gamble or take any unnecessary chances, and dislikes surprises. Friends know her to be reliable, steadfast  and a little predictable.

Brenna is enthusiastic, independent, and fearless. She has this innate drive to compete and win, to face the odds and come out on top, and that provides her with the reservoir of inner strength required to take on most anyone. She does not lack energy or vitality and her endurance is incredible – allowing her to stay in the game longer than anyone else. For this ability she has been called ‘bold’ and ‘aggressive,’ but also ‘courageous,’ for even when it looks like she couldn’t possibly win, when most people would stand back or duck out, Brenna stays. Her ego won’t allow her to leave; she either wins, or spends herself completely in the attempt.

This energy and vitality, this dynamism she employs when living her day-to-day life, attracts people to her like iron filings to a magnet. She’s like the Pied Piper, leading people along with charm and charisma against seemingly insurmountable odds. Always the first to get things going, always moving fearlessly into the unknown, ready to face any challenge and take on any competitor in order to win fair and square, she’s the leader of the pack. But in group situations, especially projects, while Brenna is always the first to get things going, whether or not everything gets done is another question altogether. She prefers to initiate rather than to complete, often bolting to the next project, the next new thing before the first one is done.

The challenge inherent on taking on the unknown is heaven on Earth to her; the dawning of a new day – and all of its possibilities – is pure bliss, while stagnation and boredom is her Achilles heel. When she isn’t challenged with something new, when she doesn’t have an immediate goal in mind to work towards, Brenna loses that charisma everyone adores so much. She gets sluggish, almost depressed, and loses all pretense of manners. If there’s nothing in it for her, she doesn’t waste her energy, so why bother being nice?
She is always blunt and to the point no matter the situation, but when everyone is working towards something that is what they need in a leader or teammate – someone who can make decisions and point out dumb errors – but when you’re just hanging out with someone, being blunt isn’t exactly a lovable trait. Her impulsivity, that immediate ‘let’s go!’ drive of hers that occasionally gets her in trouble when in action (as some decisions of hers prove later to have been too hasty – not that she would ever regret taking a shot at a problem), gets her into deeper trouble when nothing is going on; more often than not she gives in to the temptation to ram her ideas down everyone’s throats, never bothering to ask if they wanted to know; and when she is in an argument, she has the nasty habit of always having the last word. When bored she is sullen and sarcastic, and no matter what the situation she is impatient.

But she is an amazing teammate and leader. Thriving in action, full of enthusiasm, Brenna’s love of physicality and burning desire to play the game spurs her teammates to win. She would never sit on the sidelines for long, jumping into the fray full force and contributing much in the process, her competitive nature ensuring she will play the game with zeal and vigor. She loves to play, and is happiest in a spirited soccer match or engaging in martial arts.
