Weakness:
Ozzy gets in over her head on everything due to her impulsiveness and her danger addiction, often leaping before looking. Ozzy also has a fear of being alone and a fear of sickness to the point where people who cough send her out of the room.
Appearance:
Ozzy is around five feet and four inches and weighs in at around 125 pounds. Her skin is a light olive tone and remarkably has very few scars, marks, or anything else that could mar it. As a performer she tries to keep her appearance as edgy and beautiful as possible. "A performer must deliver the whole package; from something as small as the quirk of their eyebrow to the sounds of their bracelets clinking together. The rest will come naturally if the people believe you are what you say you are." Her hair is inky black and straight yet unruly, sticking out in all directions. The front part of her hair is extremely long while the back is only around the middle of her neck and occasionally at her shoulders. The long parts are brought back to make a braid that goes down to the middle of her back. The rest is left down, and she also has extremely heavy bangs falling in her face. Her eyes are a bright, pale yellow green with little flecks of gold and earthly brown, and there's usually a spark of creativity there. She has deep mahogany breeches tucked into slick, brass-buckled boots that hit her knees. The bright orange tunic she wears was her father's, and because of this is loose and large on her, but she has made modifications so the sleeves hang and reveal her shoulders, and the ends tuck into her brass and bejeweled bracers. To keep the tunic snug to her ribcage she wears a dark brown corset a few shades lighter than her pants complete with brass-colored lacing. A special brass-colored contraption also attaches to the cloth over her right shoulder and binds across her breasts and to the side to strap her pale brown violin to her back. There is also a slot for her bow, but she tends to carry it around just so she can twirl and toss it around.
History:
Ozristes, or Ozzy (a nickname she quickly earned from her free-spirited parents), was born into a traveling group of performers. Her mother was a fiddler, and her father a fire breather, as well as a bit of an unconventional drummer. When her mother required a beat, he could both dance with his torches and pound his feet against the ground. The only musician in the group, as well as the only one who'd had a child, Ozzy's mother hoped that Ozzy would follow in her footsteps and become the next fiddler for the group of sword swallowers and acrobats. What was an act without music? At age one she was already brainwashing the child, constantly playing her tunes and plucking the four basic strings. "G. D. A. E. Four strings, kiddo." While Ozzy was technically only the child of Nadya and George, the entire caravan saw her as the group daughter, parented by all.
At least until the storm. When Ozzy was four, while passing through a mountain pass, a storm hit, and an avalanche separated the caravan. Ozzy and her parents were on one side, the rest of the caravan on the other. With no one to help them, their wagon slid and rolled until it precariously balanced on a few boulders sticking out of the steep cliffside. Hearing the cries for help, a lone Goron named Cadven made his way through the rocky mountains in the rain and found the wagon. Nadya and George pleaded that he save the child and, for whatever reason, the violin. Only when those two things were removed could he come back for them. Unfortunately when the Goron returned for the parents, the wagon was already gone.
Left with an orphan (luckily one who knew her name, her age, and unfortunately aware of the fact that her parents were gone) the Goron adopted Ozzy. Upon discovering that she could already play the violin a little, Cadven sought out a teacher to help her master the instrument. Inspired, he also looked for an instrument he could master to support his new daughter. The fiddling, drumming duo was born. Acknowledged as a natural talent, Ozzy was encouraged by her mentor to tour the rest of the world, picking up fiddle tunes from different cultures and gaining her fame and her wealth across the land. So, at the age of ten Cadven and her left to experience the world's music, and let it experience their own.
Despite not being familiar with Hyrule, even though she is Hylian as were her parents, it occurred to Ozzy that Cadven sacrificed his home in Hyrule to allow her to be happy exploring the continent. Determined to return Cadven for the kindness he'd consistently shown her, Ozzy proposed that they return to Hyrule. Though, if there were other motives due to strange occurrences during her travels, Ozzy wouldn't confirm them.
