Fairy Tale Children

autumn was raised in a castle with high expectations as a damsel-in-distress princess, but shes always felt a draw towards the forest. she gains muscle/strength easily which makes it easy for her to split wood with an axe, and her steady hands make it easier for her to use a bow. being in a castle makes her uncomfortable and she hates the feeling of constantly being surveillanced.

fletcher was raised in the forest, being taught how to fend for himself. as much as he loves the outdoors and creatures of the forest, hes always wanted to be a prince and live in a castle. he was too young to remember living with his mom in the castle and hes always felt a bit disconnected to his destiny and the huntsman.

These are more focused on the background stuff rather than the usual "what would the character do in XY situation" kinds of asks. I've been looking for something like this for quite a while and in the end decided to make my own. Feel free to use, go wild, enjoy
