Description The protagonist.  She's 20 and 4'10. 

She's been through a lot of changes through the years, probably the most changes out of all my characters, which isn't much actually.

Most notable change is her size, she's always been short, but she's gone from relatively thin and 5'2, to larger and 4'10. It's mostly because I've known a lot of short girls with her body type. She has a lot of muscle, too, I wanted to give her a "I wrestle with bears in the forest" vibe, even though she's never left her town in her life. 

Another change is her eyes. She used to have very large eyes but I realized that the deuteragonist, Peony, also has large eyes, and that part of their designs didn't work well together when I drew them side by side. 

She also used to have an outfit identical in appearance to regressed Casca's traveling dress from Berserk, except green. It was completely by accident, Casca is my favorite character so I guess it accidentally transferred over... so I changed the travel wear to a big jacket that she could use as a blanket. The outfit underneath her jacket is nearly identical to another character, for reasons. 

Finally, the biggest change is her personality. She used to be the bright peppy one to Peony's apathy. Now, Peony is the sorta bright peppy one to Jia's apathy. Jia also became a lot harsher and pessimistic because I thought more about the childhood I had crafted for her and realized that it would create a pretty toughened person. Her and Peony have completely swapped roles which is pretty funny to think back on. 

I completely forgot to draw her giant bag. She has a giant brown bag that's also inspired by someone I knew who had a backpack that weighed like a ton of brinks.
