Speed
Size:
5'5"
Build:
Average
IQ:

Birth Place:
Hyrule Castle Town; Doctors office
Residence:
While she has a small shack in Hyrule Castle town, she spends much of her time out on the road, preforming shows for the masses.
Occupation:
Entertainer
Stats:
Physical:8
Mental: 4
Luck:9
Physical Abilities:
Janisse is a fit young woman, which is required for her kind of profession. While she may not be all that strong or tough, she is built to be fit and agile for doing tumbles and fancy dancers for her audience. She is very light and quiet on her feet, furthering her grace built over time.
Learned Abilities:
Having grown up in a troop, Janisse was trained from a very early age how to dance and tumble. She specialized in an act that was a combination of a fighting style and a dance; using a large metal hoop, Janisse would tumble and spin and kick all over the stage while carefully cutting targets she had set up herself prior to her performance. It is with this act she had earned the nickname 'The Deadly Jester'.
Weaknesses:
Janisse was built for speed and agility, not for strength or fortitude. While she is hard to hit, any real attack can lay some heavy damage to Janisse herself. Janisse has a great fear of heights, and is greatly affected by a booing crowd (though this does not happen very often.) While Janisse is a performer, she still gets stage fright. When she is not able to maintain her cool, however, she can slip up in her act, putting herself and possibly the crowd in danger. She is especially nervous when preforming for a private audience, and much prefers a large crowd rather than a few aristocrats. Janisse has had to raise herself for the past 8 years, and has grown to be very independent. As a result, she rarely allows herself to depend on others for help or assistance, and will do everything in her power to resolve a situation herself.
Hobbies & Talents:
When Janisse is out on the road, she very often has to hunt for herself. Her favorite 'hunting' hobby in this case, is fishing. For her, there's nothing like a gutted fish roasted over a fire with some fresh herbs. She greatly enjoys cooking, and claims herself to be a master of 'camping cuisine.' Obviously, she knows how to camp, as well as ride a horse and drive a carriage full of performance items and supplies. For her, there's nothing quite like spending the night out under the stars...as long as she isn't attacked, of course. Janisse can also play the flute and sing- something every family member was taught to do.
Personality:
Janisse is a very independent and confident woman. She prefers to do things herself, and will not ask for assistance, even when the task she has set out to do is beyond her. Janisse is the type to say whatever is on her mind, no matter what the result may be. However, she does retain a bit of control, however. She knows her place in the world: The lowly entertainer; near the bottom of the social ladder with no way to climb up. She does not desire beautiful jewels or any another of those sort of things: she's never been given any. All she really wants is to have some fun while surviving the tough times that have befallen Hyrule.
Likes:
The Simple things in life- a good fishing day, camping under the stars, a good meal. She enjoys her job, and is enthralled by the 'oos' and 'aahs' of the spectators. A great performance.
Dislikes:
People trying to help her when she doesn't need it. Getting booed for a bad performance. Other entertainers trying to monopolize on the fall of her clan.
Body Colours:
White skin tone, gray eyes, and brown hair.
Appearance:
Picture possibly coming soon.
Clothing:
Janisse wears a well kept (i.e. no patches) jester-like outfit while preforming her act. It clings to her body for maneuverability (and guy appeal) while not being too showy (she preforms for all ages, after all.) She also wears a cute mask to add to the whole experience. When she isn't preforming, she wears a set of casual clothes. Pants, boots, and a shirt and gloves are perfect for on the go.
History:
Janisse was one of the members of a family of famous traveling entertainers. For a long time, her family was renowned for their talents. Unlike many others in the same business, they did their shows for free. All they asked for was some food and a place to stay in town; and whatever money they needed, they worked odd jobs for the townfolk to earn it. They had become infamous throughout Hyrule- they have even preformed for people such as the King of Hyrule himself before he passed away. The family grew up learning to enjoy the smiles on spectators faces.
However, it was not meant to stay this way forever. When Janisse was 18, her and her family had just left Kakariko village when they were attacked; they never stood a chance. Only Janisse had survived the onslaught. That day, the family fell into history. The lesser entertainers had become the main attraction. It took many years of hard labor for Janisse to get back on her feet, but she wouldn't give up the family tradition. Now 24, she continues the family tradition, but it is a hard life. She rarely gets the warmth of town willing for a show, and even more rarely, can she preform for free. She still lives to see the smile on crowd's faces; in fact, she sometimes claims it's what keeps her going in her pursuit of picking up the pieces. And now- she always keeps her weapon nearby, in case of attack.
Anything else?
"It's the smiles that keep me going in this business, kid, nothing else." -Janisse
