Loren Rider Gray

Loren Rider Gray is a fictional character, created and roleplayed by The Digital War's admin HikaruNephele. She is leader of the Astra faction, and her Digital partner is Ardimon.

Personality
Loren has a general indifference attitude towards most things, typically just going with the flow of things. She doesn't care when people get her gender wrong, and she can't be bothered to correct anyone, either. Sewing, books, and long and elaborate games are her favorite. She does, if she assumes she's alone, coo and coddle sheep and kittens, as well as snakes and roaches. Should anyone see this, she will deny it, and walk away, never to address what had happened ever again.

History
Loren was born in Colorado to Moonshine Oasis (formerly Fred Bielschowski) and Willow Starlight Peacemeadow (formerly Claire Rose Gray). Her mother, Willow, had reservations about keeping their child due to their lifestyle, wanting her to have the best in life she possibly could, but she didn't want to part with her only child. Moonshine and Willow did their best, but with their income sparse, the two ultimately decided that Loren would do better in the care of Willow's parents. Unfortunately for the two hippies, Loren's grandparents lived in Oregon. She lived with the God fearing, highly traditional older couple since she was 5, being home schooled until high school. She grew up not showing off any feminine figure, deciding she liked pants more than skirts, and baggy tops or sweaters. Her grandparents did what they could, allowing highly scheduled video game/tv/internet time, as well as encouraging her to sew her own clothes since her mother enjoyed that as well.

Because of her highly structured life, Loren's version of rebellion was indifference. The only thing that seemed to get any emotion out of her were gifts she got from her parents. For her 16th birthday she got a digital pocket watch, as a way to merge the old and new for her. Shortly after, while sitting alone in the school library, she met Baamon while messing with her watch.
