ok... 126 words, kinda over, but.. ssshhh. XD And not so informative as I'd like, but...
Flax was the youngest of 5 siblings, the eldest of whom she hardly knew as he was killed when she was a pretty small dibbun. She grew up in a small farm-ish community of mostly a couple of extended families. She was always the tom-boy, adventure-type, more interested in playing patrol than anything else. This fondness for the patrol was encouraged by Major Clover, a friend of her parents’, who always visited when in the area, and told very good stories indeed about being LP.
There was a constant effort to counter her interest in the patrol, however, and to keep her a little quieter than she liked, mostly through teaching her to sew, trying to get her cooking, non-LP activities to her mind. Didn’t work, obviously.
