Description: Tall for a Halfling, Bubbles stands 3’ 4” and weighs 45 lbs. Bubbles is petite while still retaining the curves that drives many of the young Halflings to distraction (think the St. Paulies girl of Halflings, it just seems funny to me). Bubbles keeps her long golden blond hair tied in two long braids down her back, except when she is helping Evan Slipfiddle at the Silver Horn. She then ties it in an elaborately braided up do. After all nobody wants a 2 and a half-foot long hair in their soup. Bubbles dresses like most Halfling girls: Long skirts, soft leather boots, blouse and bodice, She likes to tie ribbons or put flowers in her hair to give a splash of color. When she is guarding her father’s wagons on deliveries, Bubbles changes into a pair of leather breeches with the legs tucked into a pair of sturdy boots. A chain shirt that her father bought her is pulled over a simple white shirt with a layer of padding so the chain does not chafe. Her hair is tied up and tucked into a handkerchief to keep it out of harms way. She carries her two short swords belted to her waist, a dagger in each boot and one dagger strapped to each leg. She finds it amusing that the boys find her almost as attractive in her “work” clothes as they do in her normal ones.
Personality: Bubbles is friendly and outgoing, ready with a smile. She will always stop to talk to the locals and loves to run around with the other Halflings her age. Ever the social butterfly, Bubbles can move from group to group and tends to be the center of attention where ever she goes, whether she tries to be or not. This has rubbed a few of her friends the wrong way lately and she is making a concerted effort to make amends. When working with her father, Bubbles takes things a little more serious. Not to say that she is dower or stone-faced, far from it. She just doesn’t let things distract her from the task at hand.
History: The only daughter of six of Finnigan and Mya Greenbottle’s children, Bubbles grew up a tomboy, playing with her brothers and working at her father’s tiny brewery. The Greenbottle’s have always been close to the Slipfiddle family (Mya being the youngest daughter of Even) and the Silver Horn Tavern has been a second home. Bubbles was a rambunctious child, whether wrestling around with her brothers or thinking up games with her friends, (which usually ended up with somebody being taken to Clara for mending) Bubbles never stopped moving. As she got older her father put her to work at the family brewery and the Silver Horn Tavern, to keep her out of trouble…well at least try to keep her out of trouble. Bubbles gravitated more and more to spending time in the Silver Horn with her best friend and cousin Molle Slipfiddle. Her brothers were more than enough to care for the brewery and at least her parents knew where she was…at least most of the time. She didn’t get to see as much of her friends, but they were all coming of age and helping their families as well. A number of friends would still hang out often at the Silver Horn though and when not working Bubbles and Molle could be seen playing with Jarren Kimble, Alton Highlea, Kwinn Baubblebuck and Jyn Peddlefoot among others. (Everyone else seems to have chosen the loner characters J) At about this time Finnigan began taking Bubbles and her brothers on delivery trips. The roads could get dangerous sometimes and her dad taught all of his children how to defend themselves. Bubbles loved training with her brothers and became quite good, so go that she was eventually allowed to make short deliveries all on her own, much to some of her brothers chagrin. Things change as they always do and Bubbles was no different. As Bubbles fighting skills developed so did other things about Bubbles and the boys took notice. Between growing up and combat training Bubbles was developing into quite a beautiful young Halfling woman. Bubbles still works at the Silver Horn and for her father, but for the first time Amblestock is beginning to feel small to her and the wanderlust that effects many young Halflings is starting to effect Bubbles as well.
Relationships:
Evan Slipfiddle: The owner of the Silver Horn Tavern and second father to Bubbles. Bubbles works part time as a serving girl for Evan when his granddaughter Molle Slipfiddle is away or the Tavern is especially busy. Bubbles weaves through the patrons and tables with easy, juggling platters full of ale tankards while dodging the wandering hands of Halflings who imbibed to much liquid courage that evening. A few of the young bucks have made somewhat inappropriate passes at Bubbles (including Jerrin), which tend end badly for the offending Halfling. More than a few of Evans clay tankards have ended their existence smashed over the heads of particularly unruly patrons.
Molle Slipfiddle: The granddaughter of Even Slipfiddle and Bubbles best friend. Molle and Bubbles grew up more as sisters than cousins. Inseparable in there youth, Bubbles and Molle have started to grow a little apart. It is not that they no longer like each other, but more because Molle doesn’t want to leave the Silver Horn and Amblestock, while Bubbles is a little more adventuresome.
Jerran Kimble: The only Halfling in Amblestock to have had two tankards cracked over his head by Bubbles. While very attractive and quite the rogue, Bubbles has stayed away from any romantic relations with Jerran. With spending so much time at the Silver Horn, Bubbles has seem how Jerran plays the other young ladies of the town and wants no part in those games. Besides Molle is totally in love with him, which puts him completely off limits.
Alton Highlea: The little brother Bubbles never had (all of hers are older). Bubbles is completely oblivious to his infatuation. Alton was quite the softy in his childhood but something has changed with him recently. He doesn’t seem as unsure of himself as he used to be.
Kwinn Baubblebuck: Kwinn is always fun to be around, ever ready for a laugh or a meal, at is hard to be in a bad mood when this jovial Halfling is nearby.
Jyn Peddlefoot: Despite the fact that Jyn tends to annoy any number of people, Bubbles has taken a liking to this spunky little Halfling (Just don’t call her spunky…or little for that matter.). Bubbles has learned to weather her tirades and when she is not reminding you of the many accomplishments of her Peddlefoot relatives, and there are many, she can be almost likeable. A bit pampered, but likeable.
Others: Ringly Softpetal and Kiylea Tangleweb have always been loners. That isn’t to say that Bubbles dislikes them, just that as they have grown older there interests have differed. Ringly always had his nose in one book or another and would rather be inside studying than outdoors with the rest of the children. Kiylea is a bit of an enigma for Bubbles. She is almost always out of town and the few times they are in the same vicinity Kiylea seems to slip away from the group. Bubbles isn’t sure if she offended the young Halfling or is she is just shy.
The Greenbottle Family:
I will do a little write up on the Greenbottle family tomorrow.
