HER HISTORY

Gwen was born a twin, on a stormy summer night in May. her brother came first, then she followed. though there are exactly six minutes between them. 

with a twin brother and older brother, Gwen grew up wanting to be just like them. one of the boys. initially her father was against her learning to use the knife and sword, along with the rifle and bow, but he changed his mind when he one day took the time to notice her natural affinity. 

the fact that she went from being told off and smacked around when she was found with a practice sword in the yard or making her own bow in her room to being trained alongside her brothers has given her a deep need to prove herself and gain her fathers approval. 

while she was treated harshly, Gwen was often shielded from her fathers most violent behavior by her brothers, even when she asked them not to. 

all her life Gwen has been very proud of bearing her fathers name, and she always believed in his cause. because of this she harbors a hidden yet fierce resentment for the entire Florian family and anyone supporting them. 

though she finds it unfair that her father never seemed to approve of her older brother and it cast a shadow over her relationship with him as she grew older and realized just how unfair he was being. 

as someone who idolized her brothers, she found it nothing but natural to follow Gil and become apart of Uma’s crew. 

there she found family, a place to belong, people who did not judge her, though in the beginning some of the boys did tease her and underestimate her. she quickly set them straight. 

both as a teen and later in life, Gwen has been a pickpocket, robber and a spy. she loves to refer to herself as ‘a great thief’ and finds nothing but pride in stealing and deceiving others both to her own ends and the ends of her friends, family and superiors. 

as a child she was often accused whenever something went missing on on the isle, though more often than not her accusers were without any tangible proof. 

that did not however prevent this individual or that to pick a fight with her or challenge her, which Gwen relished in. most of the times she won, though her family grew used to her showing up with varying degrees of injuries over the years. 

Gwen’s pride and single mindedness are her biggest weaknesses, as she doesn’t take to being beaten well, and can become quite fixated with this or that. 

while Gwen has a lot of opinions, she only shares with those she trusts, and its a short list. 

most of her life she’s gotten used to discussing her doubts, opinions, fears and thoughts with her twin brother. when without him she often ends up feeling lost, adrift and unusually insecure. 

she’s always been seen and described as a lively girl. easy to laugh, quick to take a joke, pleasant to be around. when you strip away all the layers of spy training and her chamelion like instinct to blend in, you’ll find Gwen is a heart girl. she wants the very best for those she loves and will die for them without hesitation. 

Gwen is bisexual, but she’s slightly ashamed of it, thus most of her entanglements with women have been secretive an closeted. She doesn’t quite know how to handle her sexuality.

She’s done a lot of brief relationships and dating, but because Gwen is so cautious and struggles to trust easily, she’s never been with someone for more than six months. 

though Gwen is a big fan of having flirts or friends with benefits to sleep around with. 

HER PRESENT 

Gwen couldn’t stand the idea of being too far away from Gil, so she found herself a job at the local pawn shop in Auradon. 

she actually enjoys the work quite a lot and secretly spends a lot of time at the public library whenever something historical comes up that she feels she should know more about. 

obtaining knowledge trough books has become a slight obsession given that her whole life she has been unable to go to school and learn about the world. though she’s very grateful that she was able to convince some of the islanders to teach her how to read. 

not unlike the rest of her crew, Gwen is in Auradon to spy and keep an eye on things, as well as wanting to be close to them and her brother.

while she’ll come of as assured and confident with a mouth on her with family and friends, she inhabits a much quieter persona at work and with hero kids. then she’s more of an observer, somewhat reclusive though often sarcastic. 

its not lost on Gwen that she is in enemy territory and while she knows perfectly well how she feels about Auradon’s hero population and its rulers, she’s not the kind to express this openly. no spy would ever blow their cover like that..  

MISC DETAILS

while during the daytime she wears a couple of thin, gold tinted glasses, looking quite bookish, these disappear the second she’s out on the streets and dark falls. its one of many subtle disguises she loves to wear to confuse people and trick them if she must. 

she inherited her fathers leather boots at sixteen and while they are at least three sizes too big for her, maybe even more, she wears them as often as she can. 

she cut her hair short when she moved to Auradon to obtain a bit of a ‘fresh start’ look. 

she smokes and drinks but rarely to excess, unless she’s very upset or frustrated about something. 

she has an infinity symbol on her inner left arm/inside of her elbow with her own name and her twins name in either circle. to her its a way to show that their souls will always be connected and able to find one another. 

her motto is: make your own path & women can do anything a man can do
