Bridget was the youngest in her family growing up. The Finchs were mostly farmers through and through, and their lineage of being farmers could mostly be tracked generations back. Bridget didn't mind being a farmer like her mother and father, though she didn't want follow that path if it wasn't her only choice. So eventually, with her partners permission, Bridget went to go learn at the Studium. Over the course of many moons studying, and fighting for her spot in the Studium she finally got accepted through a scholarship to learn there. So, with a smile and waving goodbye to her family she went off to go learn the wonders of the world.Bridget's time at the Studium was boring to most, but to her it excited her every second being there. She studied various topics about the world she had never seen, and wondered what all these places looked like in person. After studying at the Studium for six cycles, Bridget had gotten to the point of graduating from the Studium, and could become a full-fledge Archon. The only thing that stood in her way from the prestigious mark was her thesis. Bridget was unsure what to base her thesis off of, she could do it on the Fifth Astral Era, she could do it on the creations of the Primals. After thinking about it for many moons, she was unsure of what to do and thought maybe the thesis would come to her in the field. So, Bridget packed up her things, visited her parents and telling them about her plans, and finally headed out towards Eoreza.- - - Prologue - - -
In recent moons, she has somewhat discovered where she wishes to go to pursue her higher goal of being an Archon. This field being one that isn't documented too well in Sharlayan books that being Vermillion Magic, otherwise known as Red Magic. She currently is training her whole body to achieve the practice that is required for such a feat. It is likely going to be a road full of hardship as training the body, soul, and mind to perfection is a lot more than Bridget was initially expecting.- - - Chapter 1: Found Family - - -
In the events following her training as a red mage, Bridget started to reach out to those who might be able to assist her in such endeavours. In doing so, Bridget stumbled into a small group of people. Over the time she spent with them, she grew a close bond with them. Eventually she started to call them her family. Ones that truly cared about her well being as well as her growth. Through their travels, Bridget with the assistance of others found a soul crystal of a Scholar. So, Bridget wanting to move away from more harmful ways of life, decided to train as a Scholar.

For a while Bridget had traveled around with the Azure Palace for a while, learning from them. There was many surprises along the way, and many lessons to be had for the young naïve scholar. However, her desire to help others and heal wounds kept her pressing on despite the many setbacks. However, there was something that was unexpected for the lass. That being love. Bridget hadn't considered herself a romantic, but very suddenly found herself intrigued at the idea at first. Though how it came about was due to the girls nature of helping others. Along, came Selene Sweetbriar and the girl with no fault of her own had swept the girl up in a passionate love. One that Bridget didn't anticpated. Though, she isn't one to complain about what found.- - - Chapter 3: Guiding Light - - -
Things at the Azure Palace had been hard for Bridget as she made mistake after mistake. She had thought maybe things should go back before she showed up. That might've been the case without her guiding light in Selene. She had pulled Bridget out of her dark hole she started to dig herself in and show her what really matters in life. However, in the moment Bridget's eyes were still locked on one thing, and during the Rising. Bridget seemingly out of her usually character, got down and proposed to Selene. As she knew in her mind, never wanted that light to go out of her sight. Selene accepted the proposal as the two started plotting out what they plan to do next with the Azure Palace, and the future ahead.- - - Chapter 4: Prosperous Bonds - - -
There were more bumps to be had along the way, but the love between the two continued to prosper. Though, Bridget eventually got the will to see her father again after almost eight years. It was a warm reunion as the two connected after so many cycles. Bridget also finally discovered what she wanted for her Thesis, to be a medical Archon that studies aetheric messages to souls recently passed to give them a chance to say goodbye. Though, finally after many weeks Bridget finally married Selene. The Archon Examination finally concluded as well, and Bridget became a full Archon. Currently resides as an Archon of Medicine.- - - Chapter 5: Rocky Reception - - -
Throughout the calms of the Holidays she spent with Selene for the first time, there was a lingering issue in the air. Selene's tribe had a certain new Nunh and was causing trouble more and more with them. Eventually, R'Nawa declared that he wished to speak to the pair about certain matters. The two tentatively accepted, but knew that neither wanted this. During the meeting, Bridget discovered that her mother had secretly been helping R'Nawa with certain events. Enraged on Selene's behalf and wanting to protect her love, she clashed with R'Nawa. However, it came at a cost of Selene being injuried and Bridget being captured. She was eventually saved, though the event has somewhat scarred her. She is slowly healing from her wounds and trying to get back to who she was before. Though, some wounds are healing as she tries to pick up the pieces of the tribe with Selene. She can only hope that things can start to recover. Though, there still remains a looming shadow over her.- - - Chapter 6: A Scholar's Descent - - -

With encounters with her mother as well as dealing with nightmares of R'Nawa and being in captivity, Bridget psyche descends deeper and deeper. She attempts to hold it all together, though her rapid emotions give way to her lashing out towards others still being hurt by the world.
