Alerie Oakheart

Alerie Oakheart is the wife of Desmond Oakheart, the current Lord of Old Oak. Born to House Yelshire in 416 A.C., she was the youngest of three children.

Appearance & Character
Lithe in build, and porcelain in skin, Alerie is a beauty like only the Reach can grow. Though still young she already shows the curves, and confidence gifted her by motherhood. Atop her head sits sun kissed strawberry blonde hair, the delicate waves naturally flowing down to her waist, though often pinned up into one of the many playful styles worn by women of the Reach.

Born the youngest of three, Alerie was always a soft spoken girl. While her older brother, and sister spent their days fighting, and training, young Alerie decided instead to give her time to various studies, and worship of the faith. As she blossomed with age she found herself even more invested in the Faith of the Seven, and the duties she saw the Gods expected of her as a woman.

Childhood
House Yelshire was but a minor noble house, and one of the most humble in its position. Found in the beautiful green lands of the Reach, their family lived under the Oakhearts, and the protection they provided from their seat of Old Oak. Their families had been forever intertwined, and it was a fealty that would live on longer than Alerie was destined to.

Second daughter, and third child, the weight upon her shoulders was lighter than that her siblings held. Alerie lived happily in that privilege, enjoying her youth, and following her interests where they led her. With all her freedom she chose to stay close with her family, and act a lady long before she was old enough to claim such title. She enjoyed the many studies their septa presented her, and within her was born an ever growing love for the Faith of the Seven.

Adolescence
As Alerie grew into a beautiful young lady, she found comfort and confidence in her humble station. While the women of the House remained at Yelshire, the men made themselves useful at Old Oak. The separation only brought their family closer, and there were very few bad memories from her growing years that could tarnish that closeness.

At Yelshire the two young girls played, and grew together, so close in looks and age, but so different in their desires. While Alerie often played the role of a lady, princess, or even queen, her sister was always happily taking the opposing role of knight, or prince. Both girls continued in this way, growing into exactly the kinds of people they wished to be. While Alerie’s development was encouraged, and celebrated, Megga’s was sneered, and shamed.
