Info
Katherine Lucy Langton is the youngest daughter of Delinius and Lyka, born in 637 AEQ.

Personality
Katherine is quite reclusive and generally does not engage in extensive conversation with anyone she does not know. She does pick up on subtleties in a way similar to her father, which she may use to her advantage if needed. In addition, she can come across as hostile or even threatening towards outsiders. To those few who she does consider close, however, she is quite kind and provides advice where applicable. While she generally appears level-headed and calm, Katherine does have a violent temper that infrequently shows if her patience is tested enough.

Appearance
She stands surprisingly tall for a woman at five foot eight, with long, messy hair that is an HS a24e1b (orange-brown) not entirely unlike her father's, albeit lighter. Katherine is of a fairly slender build, something that doesn't always show beneath the several layers of clothing she tends to wear. Among these are scarves and other drapes of various colours, but invariably one article of clothing will be a colour near purple, sometimes similar to the colour of her aura.

One particularly 'lightweight' outfit that she occasionally wears consists of an HS f77936 (orange) vest over a HS eda900 (yellow) shirt that generally remains invisible. Underneath, she wears a HS fd9425 (light orange) skirt and footwear of her choosing. In warmer environments, this will usually be a pair of simple HS 814100 (brown) sandals, but in colder environments she can be found in a warm pair of HS 9b6631 (brown) boots instead. As well, she has a tendency to wear a HS 9b447d (magenta) bandana over her hair to prevent it from springing up in all directions.

Another more common article of clothing is a long HS 453088 (purple) coat that she almost always wears for any temperature that is not notably warm.

Birth and upbringing
Katherine was born in 637 AEQ and grew up with her sister Helena as her only company, besides their parents. Both sisters were encouraged to explore the extensive gardens around their home from an early age, something that Katherine was far less interested in than her sister. Similarly, once Delinius and Lyka began travelling the world with the two daughters, Katherine did not enjoy the experience as much as Helena. Unlike Helena, however, she showed a profound affinity for magic teachings, rivalling or even surpassing her father's.

While Helena travelled out to practice physical combat against a variety of things, Katherine pursued the study of a wide array of subjects, whether magic practices or more 'mundane' topics like history. Occasionally, she was assisted by her mother when technology came into play. Unlike Helena, Katherine was not quite as proficient with physical weaponry, possibly as a result of her rather sedentary lifestyle. Nevertheless, she did become moderately effective in the use of short bows, in the unlikely event she would ever need to rely on such a thing.

740 AEQ
After extensive preparation, both Katherine and Helena were deemed ready to explore Ludus independently. The two sisters then travelled around for several decades under various identities.

814 AEQ
After an undocumented altercation with several citizens of Steckenberg, Katherine retreated to a notable Dwinian library, which she would then care for and protect against vandalism for well over a century.
