Corinne Quill

Corinne Mathilda Quill is a sixteen-year-old sighted human who lives in Dian. She is the cousin of Calliope Ochre and Alexander Solferino, and the daughter of Thea and Laertes Quill. Corinne's one nickname is "Ryn," although Alexander is the only one to use it and does so only because it gets on her nerves.

Personality
Talkative and easily distracted, Corinne is almost exclusively cheerful and always happy to talk about her latest ambitious project. She is fascinated by all things magical (even though she's been around magic her whole life) and loves to sit and observe the world. Corinne is quite intelligent (being a human in a sphinx family generally gives that advantage) and loves riddles and puns. She can be reckless at times, which proves to be a major flaw, since she never knows when to stop exploring.

Appearance
Corinne is several inches taller than Calliope, and has a very lanky build. She cuts her dark hair boyishly short, in order to keep it out of the way. She has an extremely freckly face and almond-shaped dark green eyes. Like most of her family, Corinne wears glasses to correct her horrible vision.

Corinne favors bright colors (especially yellow) and patterns, and often wears sandals, since her hometown is hot year-round. She also loves ribbons and home-made bracelets, and it is not unusual to see her wearing as many of these as she can find. She often sports a red or green cap to protect herself from the Dian sun.
