Personality
COURAGEOUS: Adrie is far from fearless; in fact, she is actually afraid of a lot of things. She is terrified of enclosed spaces, she is afraid of dying young, but she doesn't allow these fears to control her life. Bravery isn't something you are born into, brave is something you become. Loads of people are born into the world fearlessly; some people never shutter when alone in the dark, some men don't think twice when they see a gun, but Adrie was never given that gift. No, Adrie's stomach twists into knots when she is put on the spot, her breath gets quick when she is put in a closed space, but she puts on a brave face. She doesn't allow anyone to see the fear that she feels, and that in itself makes her courageous. Because being naturally 'brave' is not a feat, in fact it is no accomplishment at all, it is simply in your character. But when you push yourself, when you learn to master your emotions, is when you become a force to be reckoned with. Adrie refuses to allow herself to be the girl cowering in the corner, to the damsel in distress that some prince has to save. She wants to be able to save herself from a dragon, or better yet she wants to be able to protect others. This girl never wanted to the helpless princess in story books, she wanted to be the one fighting dragons; that is the way Adrie lives her life. She never allows anyone to take care of her, she takes care of herself.
STUBBORN: Even as a child, Adrie was always told her head was too thick. She was the sort of child who could argue about anything, and the other person's opinion had no affect on her whatsoever; even after she had grown up, she remained the same stubborn girl. It wasn't that Adrie didn't have an open mind, but that when she was given information she made up her mind quickly on things. Once the this brown haired makes up her mind there is really no changing it. She has a tendency to put her whole heart into things, and she does so quite quickly. Adrie has never been the type you could sit down and reason with. Talking about the other side of things never really made much of a difference to Adrie, and neither did punishment. Her father really didn't have much of an idea how to mold Adrie into a proper young woman, mostly because they had no way of convicting her. If she acted out against her dad he would never feel sorry for what she did. Adrie believed in everything she did one hundred percent, and grounding her to her room never did anything but fuel her rebellion. Her father couldn't give her lectures to give her guilt trips, or send her to her room without dinner; trying to point Adrie in the other direction didn't do anything but make things worse.
CLUMSY: There is a reasonable reason as to why you almost never see Adrie wearing heels taller than one inch. It's simply because she will most likely fall flat on her face if she even tries to stand in them. Ever since the tender age of six, Adrie has been dropping things here and there, as well as tripping over air. There has rarely been a day in her life where she has been unable to simply walk around like a normal person and not make a fool of herself, though over the years her friends have come to accept the fact that handing something to Adrie because they need someone to hold it is the worst idea you can get, as most likely, even though she would stand perfectly still and holding the box, it will find a way to drop out of her hands and crash to the floor. This obnoxious trait of hers becomes even more evident when she is nervous, whether it be for an exam or because of the person she is talking to.
LOYAL: Another quality that goes along quite well with her stubbornness is her loyalty. In fact, they actually go along hand in hand. Like Adrie opinions, her ideas go along in the same light. Once she makes up her mind about someone she doesn't turn her back on them. When you are a friend of Astrid you are a friend for life. Unlike most young girls, she has never one to flip through best friends. She remembered growing up everyone had best friends of the week. They would hop along from companion to companion, ditching each person for the next best thing; Adrie had never been like that, even when she was little. Even with objects, she was always quite attached. Dorcas still kept the same teddy bear she had as an infant when she was eleven years old; despite her father's attempts to get rid of the bear, Adrie refused to let it go. It was tattered, torn, and useless, but she wasn't going to abandon it, just like she would never abandon her friends. It didn't matter if her friends were in the best of days or their worst, she wouldn't desert them for the world. If the entire world was against them, she would be the only one at their side. Threats and danger were also things that did not get in the way of her loyalty. Secrets told to Adrie were nothing more than secrets. She would never utter a word of someone's personal business. It didn't matter if she was being tortured, she would never betray a friend.
COMPASSIONATE: Adrie is a very sweet girl and she has never wished harm upon anybody. As well, she finds it easy to sympathize with those who have encountered struggle because she, too, has been faced with disheartening situations. Astrid tends to come off as a bit of a mother duck when it comes to attempting to cheer someone up. She's always very eager to help and to do anything to alleviate the suffering in any way she can. Her heart always goes out to those who are stricken by sorrow.
PRANKSTER: Even as a child, she was the one who would come up with the pranks and was the one who encouraged others to do things. So it wasn't really surprise why her parents had hands full with her. If Adrie didn't like you or she just found you annoying, you can be sure that Adrie will target you for her next prank. There was nothing that would stop her for doing what she did. Being wild was her one trait she was actually proud of. She has a reputation of being both a bit cruel when it comes pranking she can be very nasty. Even though she might seem very sweet at first, she has a rather twisted mind that everyone should be afraid of. Well, not everyone, but you have been warned.
TEMPERED: You can say it's because of her Dutch ancestry. But she calls it her bad habit. Adrie has a short temper and fiery one of them. She can flare up almost to anything. Specially if you tell her what to do. She doesn't tolerate people bossing her around or people ignoring her. She needs attention and if she doesn't get it, she'll start throwing things, banging doors or just start screaming. This bad trait was on its peak, when Adrie was a child. She was the brat, so to speak. She only ate what she wanted. Rules were just guidelines. And above all, she wanted things to go her way. As she grew up, she did calm down. But just a bit.

History
I am the youngest daughter of King Jager of Norway and Queen Liv of Norway. From a young age, I was educated in the courtly pursuits since one day I was expected to become Queen or Empress of another realm. My father was affectionate and very close to me .. I studied piano, painting and knitting to keep my interests vast and appropriate for a young royal girl.
I was raised between our summer palace in The Hague and in our winter palace in Amsterdam but I spent most of my time in Amsterdam. From an early age, I had governess who was in in charge of teaching me the courtly pursuits, I needed to be a Queen and a good wife to my husband.Even though I was mostly raised by governess,my Mother had inprint on what the governess taught and raised me.As I grew up, I spent more time with my governess and my Mother, I rarely saw my Father who was always busy with stately business. My governess was strict with me from an early age, any time I made a mistake or did something to displease her, she was very stern with me and try teach me why things were suppose to be done a certain way.
My parents didn’t think it was logical that girl like me, attended a public school, so they signed me up in Le Ville School for Girls since they though would give me head start in my future.I was sent to the most exclusive school in Paris Le Ville School for Girls, that school had educate children of European Royalty, Presidents and countless of other powerful and wealthy people.I was taught there, the usual things a society girl most learn:Art,piano,violin,tennis, croquet, social ethics and manner,geographic, literature and French and Latin.
My parents decided that I was going attend school with my older siblings in Montana. So after I was finish with Le Ville, I was shipped to Montana to attend Vineheart with my older sister and brother. I was not excited to be away from Europe,but I was excited to be reunited with my siblings and my cousins.
