Amelia the Lambkin

Amelia appears to be a small lamb, of all things, although her facial features are somewhat more human than ungulate. She has large, limpid black eyes, and an appropriately styled series of pale curls which sit atop her head and fall into generous ringlets. The hair frames her dark face, her wool lamb-short and clipped, a pale cream colour that shows that her hands and muzzle are black. Amelia seems to be, literally, no more than six or so years old, in a ruffled series of petticoats of a golden colour, topped by a pretty dress in cornflower blue. Golden lace edges her neckline and the puffy sleeves that enclose her shoulders, and an attractive pale cream sash about her lower chest keeps the entire thing restrained. Her tail is visible under a demure clasp appropriate for such, undocked and lamb-long, it bears a lace bow.

Pale stockings and sweet golden shoes cover her hooves, although she is too young yet for gloves. She has with her a cornflower blue bonnet appropriate to her head, beribboned, although she will keep on removing the thing and playing with it. Amelia is, simply, an astonishingly beautiful child, and appears to be accompanied by a playmate - a fanciful little winged white sugar mouse with red garnet eyes that flits about her.

History

Amelia is, simply a member of the Garden Children. She has a talent for slipping out from the garden, and is coyly mischievous in an entirely appropriate manner. Like all Garden Children, neither sex nor violence appears to have any effect on the dear thing - she might react with confusion or fear at first, but the memory never sticks.

Amelia's mamma and papa are of great interest to her, but she seems incapable of explaining them to anyone else...not such a surprise, since not even the Garden Children know entirely where they come from. However, she does know that mummy and daddy love her very much. They loved her so much they gave her Sukie, who is her pet mouse.

Amelia is unconcerned with the future or indeed the artwar. She is simply the product of it, after all, and quite a successful one. A side effect of her inability to percieve terror or pain for long is that she has a rather trusting personality. The fantastical is something she expects, since she is a native Puzzleboxian, and while utterly naive and very young, Amelia is quite capable of using whatever local systems she requires - if it ever occurs to her to do so.

She lisps.

And it sounds pretty instead of affected.
