Description

Only standing about five feet tall, the first thing you'd notice on this small, blonde woman would be her head-bound mess that some call hair. Reaching well past her shoulders, her hair is a tangled and unkempt mess, only really kept down by gravity over her shoulders and at her upper back. Thick dreading interweaves in knots of other dreads, mixed with loose strands of wispy wheat-blonde locks, the only pattern in her hair's design being chaos. Almost a benefit of her hair's self-bound nature, her face is clear of all hair aside from a single loose dread. Deep, violet-tinged outer circles of color weave like tangled roots through an ocean-blue core of both her eyes, the intermingling tones fading into one another seamlessly. She has a thin facial structure, though her cheek bones rise up and her chin being gently rounded to give her a heart-shaped face. A single skin-tone seems consistent across her body, a light peach color, paired with interspersed pale-brown freckles. Despite being small, and mostly thin-framed, she doesn't go without a fair amount of muscle making her appear firm-bodied. At a distance, she could appear boyish with a relatively flat bosom, but anyone with a roaming gaze could dismiss such an idea, being graced with a thin waist and subtly flared hips.

Personality

Stereotypical recluse. Prefers to spend time with wildlife and her family's horses. Understands animals better than other people, and is regularly caught speaking to her horse as if it were to know what she was saying. She lacks any social skills that the rest of her family exhibits, though not from a lack of effort. She's often dismissed from social gatherings, or outright ignored, due to having little regard for her personal appearance and appears to have improper hygiene despite actually tending to such things- simply not to the standards of others.

Background

Born twin sister to Aahana Volkov, Svoli claims to be the elder twin despite being the smallest of the pair, and their births only being a short span of time apart. Svoli is most certainly harder to understand than her sister, though it's only in part because Aahana comes off as being more sociable. Svoli, was always sociable in her own way, instead choosing to make friends of the House pets, and most important of all the horses. The steeds in which many of House Volkov owe their livelihoods toward, are an extended part of Svoli's personal family. She speaks to each of them, and know them for their quirks and subtle differences in temperament. While her family may consider her something of a dolt in social aspects, she more than makes up for it with her uncanny understanding and what some would consider control over varieties of beast, not only that of equine origin. Some would explain away that the reason why Svoli appears so disheveled and unkempt, is because she takes more after the animals she dotes over. In truth, there may be something more to her nature in regards to animals. Her affinities aside, she also found a personal importance in learning aspects of her family's exports, both with cultivating and rearing them. In regards to her brother's decision in bending the knee, Svoli is rather indifferent. She only cares that she will be able to continue caring for her friends, and hopes that this change in political stances will mean that fewer wild beasts (which she regards as friends she has yet to meet) will be hunted- the necessity for it hopefully being reduced. Her love for animals could become a serious concern for some, as in certain situations her ferocity in defending them is able to turn violent- seeking retribution for abused creatures as if they had the same rights as a person. Such justice of course being reserved for those animals closest to her, or those she may feel empathetic toward at the time.
