Shelly

Shelly is one of The Wanderers, and is the POV of the majority of Ready to Brawl. She is an ex-bandita turned wanderer, and roams Brawltopia with her friends.

Personality:
Shelly is an upbeat and occasionally air headed person with a heart of gold. She is extremely passionate, leading her to seem overly peppy when she's happy and righteously moralistic when she's upset. She is very defensive of her friends, and quick to anger should someone insult her or those she cares about. She is impatient, brash, forgetful and places emotions over logic. She also isn't terribly intelligent, but isn't a brick either.

Appearance:
Shelly is a Latina of around 20, she has purple hair, tan skin and dark eyes. She wears her hair in 5 buns in a pattern that resemble a flower. She is around 5'2" or 158cm, and has about average body proportions.

In her original appearance (Arc 1: Let's Go to Super City!) she wears a bandana, a long sleeved shirt and pants with stripes on the side. She currently wears a blue sundress with yellow stars lining the bottom, as well as sandals.

Relationships:
She has a few close relationships, but doesn't really have any adversarial relationships.

Colt:

Shelly seems to like Colt, and it's with him that she is more introspective and thoughtful, for example when they talked about constellations on Captain Passer's ship. She seems generally oblivious about his crush on her, but it's unclear if she reciprocates those feelings.

Spike:

The friend she's had the longest, Shelly and Spike seem to share a special connection based on care, mutual respect and trust. Spike trusts Shelly, as seen when he entrusts the decision of giving Tara the eye onto her, and Shelly seems to understand what Spike's saying to some degree, like when she has a "conversation" with him in when they're in their cave about bathing.

Poco:

Though these two haven't had much interaction, it has been shown that Shelly enjoys sparring with Poco on occasion, though sometimes she also gets confused by him or is overbearing, which resorts to his annoyance.

Primo:

These two seem to share a bond in their playfulness with each other, but this can sometimes lead to trouble when they're goofing off and not paying attention to the task at hand.

Tara:

As a person who questions authority, Shelly is generally distrustful of Tara, but when she manipulates them to get the eye, Shelly becomes angry.

Byron:

Because he is a conman, Shelly is a little distrustful of Byron, but she's also rash, so that overrides her distrust. However, her main emotion is fear, seeing as he intimidated her and spoke of ghost stories when they met.

Chapter 1:
Shelly starts off the series as a bandita on the run, and chased after by Colt. She rushes into Sheriffsville and almost gets caught by Sheriff Lee and Jason before running and hiding in a barrel. Colt finds her, and she dashes off, using a barrel thrown at Colt as a diversion. A chase ensues in The Cactan Desert, with Shelly dodging all of Colt's attacks with ease. She blows up a dam, and water comes rushing out, creating enough of a distraction for her to escape and go back to her cave, which she lives in with Spike.

She returns to Sheriffsville, knowing Colt is looking for her, sees through his scheme when he offers to take her bounty hunting. She retorts with an offer of her own, for him to allow her and Spike to go fill out Spike's bucket list. He offers for them to catch Primo and Poco, in return for her paying for the dam that she broke earlier, and her being let free.

They search around the desert for Poco and Primo, before running into them.
