Brief personality: Amaltheia is a very kind, innocent, and caring person on the surface, but she can be a terrible masochist at times, and sometimes, even appear to be evil. Amaltheia tends to be very impressionable, and can be influenced or persuaded to do something very easily. For some reason, she finds herself very attracted to bad people, like criminals and tyrants. Amaltheia, although masochistic and evel at times, can seriously be a very good and sweet person, caring for children, or making people gifts are just a few of the things shemight do on some days. Amaltheia loves poetry and everything asbout it, except writing it. she cannot write poems to save her life, although she loves listening to poetry performances.

Brief physical description: Amalthia will often be seen wearing a traditional Greek headdress, and will almost always have a white toga on. She has fair skin, and brown eyes to match her light brown hair. Her hair is held back and does not fall down past her neck, as Otis held by the headdress mentioned previously. She often will walk around in sandals. She is fairly skinny, stands at about 5 feet and 5 inches, and has a breast size of 38b.
