Here is my first character below, not finished yet though.<br/>_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________<br/><br/><strong>Human Name</strong>: Kaelia Jusila<br/><strong>Drow Name</strong>: PhaeMyr'Laklyrumel (Shadow Priestess of the Silent Frigid Night) [pronounce the U with an oo sound.] (<span class="bbc_u">Phae</span>; Shadow,<span class="bbc_u">Myr</span>; Priestess<span class="bbc_u">Lalkyrumel</span>; of the silent frigid night.<span class="bbc_u">Um</span>,<span class="bbc_u">Klyr</span>and<span class="bbc_u">Lael</span>are separate words,<span class="bbc_u">Um</span>meaning Frigid,<span class="bbc_u">Klyr</span>meaning Silent and<span class="bbc_u">Lael</span>being of the night. They have been combined to make her last name.)<br/><br/><strong>Appearance</strong>:<br/><br/>(http://i651.photobucket.com/albums/uu234/darkxanatos/KaeliaImages.jpg)<br/><br/>(http://i651.photobucket.com/albums/uu234/darkxanatos/PhaeImages.jpg)<br/><br/><br/>Kaelia has many appearances but what she truly looks like his a pale, almost white skinned young woman who has natural black hair. Kaelia stands at 5'6". She is well built but is not a bombshell nor is she really attractive thanks to her obsession with shadow. She is still pretty and could be much more so if she cared to become so. Her body is appealing but she always wears cowls and robes, almost never revealing any of her body to the light or even darkness.<br/><br/>It is more common to see her in one of her alternate appearances than her normal appearance and it is so rare that she is in her natural form that few actually know what she truly looks like, believing any one of her forms to possibly be what she really looks like. She does not hate how she really looks, instead her slight mental bent causes her to switch appearances on a whim, sometimes, other times she changes to suit a purpose.<br/><br/>Black and black alone is the color she wears, finding nothing else to suit her. This does not mean she won't have other colored items on her person but she will only wear black clothing.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u">When a Drow</span><br/><br/>Sometimes she prefers to look like her human self, feeling a bit of loss for what she once looked like, other times she likes to look like her new Drow self.<br/><br/><strong>Personality</strong>: Kaelia was once a dedicated priestess, low in the order, but skilled and loyal. She was never out going but she had what it took to be a priestess never the less, she simply excelled more at internal affairs than dealing with the people or worshipers. All of this changed slowly as her innate ability to feel, sense, and manipulate the Shadow came to her realization. It slowly but surely eroded her ability to focus on her duties as she became nearly obsessed with this new found ability.<br/><br/>Only the Shadow meant anything and so she forsook her vows and left, wandering to and fro in her desire to learn and grow in the Shadow.<br/><br/>Now she is a rather strange and disturbing woman, as she adopts appearances which leave those who observe her unsettled if not frightened. Kaelia earned the nickname of the Crying Shadow for her brief but intense desire to cry for no real understandable reason on rooftops of the city she inhabited for a time. To those who caught a glimpse of her above, they could only make out a hazy dark, shadowy figure that seemed to be crying. Her wailing at times was so loud it could be heard through much of the city as the wind would often pick up her cries and carry it farther than it normally could travel on its own.<br/><br/>Another persona she seems to favor is that of a woman with a black rotting mark running up the left side of her face starting from her mouth and her pitch black eyes seem to be rotting as well around the edges. This she has been seen to use to scare the color out of people. Kaelia seems to enjoy tormenting people for no reason, only scaring them instead of physically harming them.<br/><br/>Despite the fact she looks and acts almost insane she is quite sane and in control of herself. She, if engaged and finds the person speaking to her of interest, can open up to discussion rather well; though she does tend to prefer to keep to herself mostly.<br/><br/><strong>Background</strong>:<br/><br/><strong>Shadow Companion</strong><br/><strong>Name</strong>: Scyvinth<br/><br/>(http://i651.photobucket.com/albums/uu234/darkxanatos/Shadow.jpg)<br/><br/><br/>The only creature which Kaelia can call a stead fast companion is a mysterious Shadow creature she found while wandering the endless realm of Shadow. The being seems intelligent but unable to speak; it uses a very basic form of telepathy sending images to her mind as meaning for what it is trying to say or it uses a audible clicking sound with different variations. The images it can create are of its own imagination, so its not limited to images its sees, though it often uses things its sees then adds in details to gets its point across. Kaelia has over several months managed to come to understand the creatures clicking and can responds accurately, most of the time.<br/><br/>Though the creature travels with her often, it does not always stay with her all the time; many times it leaves her for indefinite periods of time only to return unannounced. She can attempt to summon it to her but the creature is not bound to her will and thus does not always answer.<br/><br/>Their relationship is an odd one but the creature has befriended her for some reason and defends her when it is around and or attacks her enemies at her wish.
