Biography: Juliana was raised as one of the outriders of her kingdom. Her family long being in the employment of their King she would take up the bow along with her mother and father. From childhood to adult hood it was constant combat training and though she was a rather dainty and dull woman she grew into a voluptuous and deadly killing machine. She was known for her quick but incredibly accurate arrow shots while she was still a skilled swordswoman being able to disarm her opponents with her buckler with ease. Her family consisted of her Mother, Father and younger Brother. Her mother was a more traditional knight teaching Juliana in codes of honor, duty, swordsmanship. Her father was one of the kingdom's top outriders, acting as a scout and a ranger, picking off targets with his bow from 100s of yards away. Her younger brother was an aspiring knight, currently serving as a squire to a lord he's on the verge of his 16th birthday and with each passing year his dream of becoming a knight inspires, Juliana to be a better out rider.
Personality: Juliana is a duty oriented person first and foremost, keeping her mission and country first before anything else. Without her personal creed she feels like her world would devolve into nothingness and feel like she would be lost as a result. She knows nothing much for being good or evil, but she knows that she can help those when she can, but she must sometimes dirty her hands to carry out her duties.

Juliana Baird was the daughter of a military family and grew up to rigid structure of duty and discipline. She spent most of her free time not doing chores or practicing swordplay in the wilderness, hunting, scavenging, and enjoying the nature of the land. Her home was in a reclusive rural community on the outskirts of the Kingdom of Talingarde. The summers were warm and the winters were mild. She was trained by her parents in the art of combat and scouting; they happened to be two of the best soldiers in service to King Mavos V, a just and righteous ruler.
Her life seemed practically set for her. In time, she too would receive a commission with her parents' blessing, and serve alongside her brother as defenders of the realm.
But not all goes as planned.
After a decade of relative peace, there were stirrings of war, Orc sightings and worse. Many days her parents spent at the nearby Castle Rafont belonging to Lord Haurchont (Hor-shawn) Rafont, but they would always be back by dinner as per tradition.
Juliana arrives home from hunting one evening to find the house strangely empty, save for her brother, James. The sun was barely setting, her parents would usually have returned by now, though they were nowhere to be seen or heard. Their home was meager, containing a common area and a kitchen on the first floor with two small bedrooms on the top floor. James, on the other hand, was out of his armor and in his skivvies. As soon as Juliana enters, he springs up, nothing but a loincloth and visible erection. He approaches and says, "Hey sis, can you, um..."
Juliana had 'helped' her brother before using her hand, to prevent him from going out to impregnate some poor milk maid, but he was an adult now, and she hadn't done that in a long time, not since he tried to get a lot more than that. Maybe James thought he could get it for his coming of age. He was a full four inches taller than Juliana now and certainly had the build of a warrior.
His bulge underneath his loincloth was huge, indicating quite a growth in the few years since last time Juliana 'helped' him.
