Differences on Katrina Frost

Differences between by and the current version
Katrina is 2'11in tall with green eyes and a rather impish grin as if she is planning the next practical joke on someone. She's a daredevil and will basically do anything for a dare. Her favorite stunt is escaping from restraints and she has honed her skills to a point where she is very good at it However, she is a firm believer in 'safety first' so that she has a good chance of survival even though the stunt is death defying. Katrina was born into the Tenderfoot noble family, the youngest of three children, but even from early on would rather be engaging in activities with her brothers rather than learning to be a proper noble lady. She'd rather be out seeing the world rather than being cooped up with other ladies learning things like needlecraft. So she managed to scandalise the entire family by running away to join Rockfall's Travelling Circus. This action led her to being initially cut off from the family, including not receiving her stipend, but she didn't really care as she was determined to make her own way in the world. The circus didn't know she was noble born when she joined up as she said her name was Selena Snow with the stage name of 'Slippery Selena' or 'Courageous Crysta'. She didn't really care what she would be doing, just as long as it allowed her to travel. She was however fascinated by the escape artist and the young Katrina begged to learn the tricks. At first he refused but she persisted. Finally he said that he's teach her but she would have to escape from the ropes he put her into. Katrina accepted the challenge and, even though she was asked several times if she wanted to quit, refused to give up. She finally worked her way out after six hours. Impressed by her refusal to give up and her calmness, she was taken on as an apprentice. Also in the circus, she did high-wire balancing, trapeze, acrobatics, hair hanging, and, on occasions, an illusionist's assistant and knife throwing target. Also mucking out the stables, cleaning, and whatever menial tasks she was given. During her time in the circus, she had two really close friends, a gnome named Sansa, who had a way with animals (druidess), and a halfling sized elf, named Anya (sorceress), who was the aformentioned illusionist. They spent a lot of time together and were inseparable. They were so close as friends that their relationship turned into a threeway tryst. Kat did confess her background to her two friends/lovers but it didn't matter by then. Her family was now the circus. Anya and Katrina assisted each other in their respective acts, and also teamed up with Sansa for multi animal acts, such as the elephant parade. Finally, after many months, the show returned to her home town and by now, she was the poster girl, having mastered several dangerous stunts. She didn't think her family wanted anything to do with her anymore so she didn't even try to contact them. Imagine her surprise when nearly all the Tenderfoots attended opening night. However, she put on a brave face (even though she was really nervous) as the show must go on and wowed the crowd with her stunts culminating in a rather dangerous looking underwater escape. After the show, her parents came to see her and told her that she could come home if she wanted. They had even held her back stipend in trust in case she had given up and come home. But she hadn't and they were proud of that. After thinking about it for a long while, as it was a very hard decision, she finally accepted, and returned home. She did leave the travelling circus a going away present though - the entire back stipend, which had grown into a rather tidy sum of gold. Still, she didn't stop being the performer. The Tenderfoots saw her as an asset on diplomatic missions and on one such mission she was swept off her feet by the charms of Lord Floom[[Floom Frost]] and finally decided to marry. The couple now run the [[Frost Roadhouse]] and have three children - triplets: [[Rani Frost and finally decided to marry. The couple now run the| Rani]], [[Prilla Frost Roadhouse and have three children - triplets: [[Rani| Prilla]] and [[Milo Frost | Rani]], [[Prilla Frost | Prilla]] and [[Milo FrostOriginal| Milo]] in that order. They also have two dogs and a cat which Katrina claimed followed her home one night. (She actually found the abandoned kitten). She does sometimes miss her days in the circus and wonders how Anya and Sansa are getting on. Recently, she attended their wedding. Their marriage is stable although it has been rumoured that Katrina has had a few one night stands - with other females. She has even taken on a longer turn female lover especially when Floom has had to spend long periods away from home and the children were away. Rani had been fostered off to [[House Atianna]], Prilla was with the Druids and Milo was in the [[Ivory Tower]]. Since she had a close bond with her children, especially Rani, who was following in her footsteps as an escape artist/acrobat etc, she always felt their absence keenly. She especially enjoyed performing when Rani was with her as the other half of the duo. She had been drawn to the ways of the druids, through her other daughter, Prilla, and the adventures she had, often helping out when things went wrong in the woods. She especially wanted to learn more about the fae as it was theorised that there was fae in her bloodline - pixie perhaps, or nixie. So, she started training. A year or so later, there was some sort of magical calamity and she found her powers changed. She was still a non-telepath (the only one in the family although, if she tried hard enough and the children were willing, she could form a mental link with them, plus Floom and her had a permanent mental link), nearly all of her rogue powers were still there but altered slightly, she had gained real faerie wings (which she could turn on and off at will) but instead of being a druid, she was now a witch, Her black hair now had a white 'witchmark' in it and she was now tapping into the arcane instead of the divine. Of course she had to leave the order so she couldn't see Prilla as much as she used to. Witch powers also included being able to fly on a broom and also to breathe water when she wanted to, as well as being able to pass that ability on to others. What with getting to grips with that, and the fallout from the calamity onto [[Frostville]], which she was determined to keep in Harmony with Nature, meant that she didn't have the time to spend with Rani as she would have wanted - and Rani had problems of her own. Without Prilla to help, mother and daughter grew apart with Rani getting resentful and leaving home after a big argument. Fortunately, reconcilation is starting to happen.
