Fury Aphrodisia<br/><br/><div class="floatleft">(https://orig00.deviantart.net/3a39/f/2013/196/b/b/sphinx_card_by_anastasiareddress-d6dkxw5.jpg)</div>(http://ilarge.lisimg.com/image/6657608/1118full-tara-emad.jpg)<br/><br/><br/><strong>Character name:</strong>Felyn ("Fay-lynn") Maher<br/><strong>Species:</strong>Sphinx<br/><strong>Sexuality:</strong>Heterosexual, as far as she knows<br/><strong>Role:</strong>The enigmatic hippie bookworm<br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Felyn is a fairly curious individual, somewhat vague in her communications with people around her. She is often introspective, constantly on the lookout for things to learn and ways to expand her repertoire. She rarely initiates conversation, and when she is spoken to, always has questions. She gives freely of herself, but not without determining how necessary the help is and whether the other person wants it enough. Those seeking her help ought to be prepared for her best questions yet! Even so, once that barrier is crossed, there is a veritable cornucopia of trivia and information tucked away behind her eyes.<br/><strong>Description:</strong>Felyn can hardly keep her features to herself. Sometimes, in the absent-mindedness that comes from a good book, exploring a new path, having a good conversation she'll forget to keep her tail, her wings or her claws at bay and sometimes can even revert to her feline body without noticing! It still requires steady concentration to maintain a human appearance, and the more she opens up to the people around her, the more she tends to forget that she's supposed to be at least looking human.<br/><br/><strong>Background:</strong><br/><br/>Early on in her life, Felyn was taught by her mother how to shift perception of those around her in regards to what form she takes. As she learned more, her mother began to take her out to explore the world around her. At first, it was only to her mother's sisters, the whole group of which took turns guarding the three temples of ancient knowledge. Wandering those temples, Felyn found that she enjoyed absorbing it for herself, if only to understand the world around her better.<br/><br/>When she could no longer be contained, Felyn's mother took her to look in on the mortal world at large, explaining how the tiny creatures could decimate the world with just a fraction of what she would one day live to guard and how information could be dangerous. It was why the Sphinx were set to guard secrets, after all.<br/><br/>There was never any question of Felyn making her way to whatever stores of knowledge she could find, both as a drive in her nature and an eager acceptance that one day she would follow in her mother's footsteps, as she dreamed. Being the only Sphinx of her age - only ever one young one at a time - the rest just seems... natural.<br/><strong><br/>Character O/Os:</strong>Ons: Intelligence, honesty, strength, anything you might find as worthy traits in an old story. The smell of hickory, touching her neck, deep voices, baths<br/>Offs: Cruelty, deceit, cold, pain, blood, closed-mindedness, rain, high-pitched or grating sounds.<br/><br/>
