Any of the food that happens to be wrapped up in her bags at the time. She of course will want to share.

12. A childhood events that C thinks shaped his or her personality.

Growing up without her Da, and moving around with her Ma, makes Orangeblossom a bit up-rooted. She feels no real ties to any place, and tends to be more attached to people then place or thing, other then food of course, food is of course very important.

Home is a warm fire and good food, and Ma by the stove and Grimli at the table drinkin' me own blessed ale.

What is the one thing you are most afraid of?

That me Da will run away an' ne'er get ta know me when he finds out I'm his lil lass.

16. C’s name. Did you decide this before, during, or after answering questions 1-16?Orangeblossom's name came well before the character did.
