Arrius Droken

Is the eldest sister of the Droken clan… technically. In actuality, Brutus is treated more as the eldest, despite being 2 years younger than Arrius. In contrast to her intimidating stature and appearance, Arrius is a gentle soul and rather shy. She is laughably bad at standing up for herself tends to let other creatures walk all over her… and then usually hides behind Brutus and lets the younger and smaller Sheepdrake rip the offending creature to shreds. She looks up to Brutus a lot for her bravery, and although Arrius is just as protective of her family as Brutus – perhaps even more so, and will always try to help her siblings how she can… sometimes she feels like she fails as the eldest sibling. Especially since Brutus has been away living with the Pyridekk for several years, Arrius has had to step up her game.

Arrius is not a creature of many words, but is always happy to keep someone company or to be a listening ear. Arrius spends most of her time tending to the farms and gardens of the Droken family and is a diligent worker, she finds repetitive tasks and schedules to be quite comforting. She likes to decorate the house with arrangements of wildflowers and pretty stones she finds as well.

Of all of the Droken siblings, Arrius is probably the least social. She can tolerate and enjoy hanging out with her large family because she’s used to them and they know her, but she gets ansty if she is in a group of other creatures for too long (she hates traveling into Raarkajkr’s villages for supplies and tries to outright avoid going to any of the more populated regions of Pippaf). All in all, Arrius isn’t the best at expressing herself with words and prefers to speak with her actions. Other creatures tend to read her wrong when she talks anyways, due to her often monotone voice and lack of expression.
