Physical Description
A wiry, weatherbeaten sea rat with dark eyes. She wears a pair of earrings in one ear and her coat is colored in uneven patches of dark blonde, brown, and black. She has a solid build, the look of someone who has relied on her physical abilities through much of her working history. She dresses in simple sailor's clothing, usually loose trousers and shirt, unless for some reason she finds herself needing to look fancy.

Personality
Practical, reliable, a bit ornery, and without much appreciation for the 'finer things' that her superior officers in the navy might care for. She can be sullen and recalcitrant when faced with novel things outside of her experience and has a mistrust of the 'foreign' when it comes to food, drink, clothing, and customs.
Credence grew up used to physical hardship and went to sea when she was a little girl, and has lived and worked on the sea for over twenty years, making her very used to short rations, bad weather, and whatever else might face her. She has a keen, practical mind despit her lack of formal education and is quick to cut past complications to arrive at an answer. Handy with practical mathematics, especially those related to gunnery and sailing.
Despite her appreciation of the new technology of making things go boom (gunpowder) she is a fundamentally conservative personality and has a deep distrust of newfangled devices or gadgets, especially things like engines in ships. Likewise, she tends to sneer at 'foreigners' who don't Vulpinsula and is a bit of a chauvinist when it comes woodlanders. It's not that she hates them or is particularly bigoted, she just thinks everyone should have the same values as they do at home and has a difficult time putting herself in the shoes of others. Rough and blunt, she is not much for social nicieties and falls back on fawning obedience and prompt action in the face of superior officers.
History
A native of Vulpinsula, Credence grew up in a small fishing-slash-smuggling village near Marquistry Cape and was often at sea in her childhood. She went to sea full-time as a ship's volunteer at the tender age of 11 and has been working as a sailor in one manner or another in the 21 years since. Some time was spent on merchant vessels, and a good amount has been spent in the navy of Vulpinsula. She found that she liked the structure of the service, and appreciated the guaranteed food. Working her way up to the rank of Able Seabeast she turned towards aiding the Armorer's Mate--a fascination with gunpowder and things that go 'boom' drawing her towards that new technology. Now a longtime veteran of the sea, she awaits her next posting by whiling away her hours on shore, hoping for a ship.
