<strong>Name:</strong>Shihouin Soma (http://www.dndonlinegames.com/profiler/view.php?id=14451)<br/><strong>Age:</strong>113<br/><strong>Gender:</strong>Female<br/><strong>Race:</strong>Half-Human, Half-Succubus<br/><strong>Class:</strong>Half-Succubus/Bard2/Battle-Dancer1/Marshal1/IaijutsuMaster2//Swordsage10<br/><br/>(http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a248/marigreywords/Soma.jpg)<br/><br/><strong>Personality: </strong>Self-proclaimed God-King of the Hidden City, an unseen territory supposedly in the wilds near Agnis and Palmeed. All that is known is that she is an inhumanly skilled warrior with an ego the size of Agnis itself, who owns a ship that burrows beneath the earth. She seems permanently confident, and prone to the type of smoldering anger that suggests she is going to kill you . . just when you're not expecting it. Her followers (generally that 'typical' piratey thug sort, or beautiful handmaidens) are fanatically devoted, treating her like a queen . . or as she insists, a deity. Soma still has her moments of compassion, but they usually end up with her getting something out of the situation . . if only prestige or a new follower.<br/><br/><strong>Physical Description: </strong>Standing at five foot eight, and a good hundred pounds of lean muscle and perfect proportion, Soma strikes a surprisingly intimidating figure. Her features clearly mark her as a Shihouin person, though her silver hair seems to mark her as some sort of offshoot of the ruling family. Her eyes are another hint to unusual parentage, since their blue color is a unique (see: weird) shade, and her pupils seem slightly elongated on close inspection. Still, when on her, all of this seeming-imperfections just make her even more ludicrously attractive. Indeed, she seems to exude an aura and scent that just pulls people of both genders in.<br/><br/>She has a wide variety of styles that she has been known to choose for her clothes, but in public she almost always is seen wearing non-Shihouin clothes. Her favorites are Agnesian and Soldian clothing. In fact, she always has her fur-lined (and enchanted) Agnis longcoat on her shoulders. She carries a Soldian longsword (in it's sheathe) crafted of fine coldiron in hand, rather than on her back or side. Why? Because she's awesome, that's why.<br/><br/><strong>Backround:</strong>The hint of her hair's odd coloring is correct, Shihouin Soma is indeed a member of the Shihouin royal family . . three generations before. Her father (Then-Emperor) fell in love with a succubus, and binded their destinies together, siring two children with her. Twins, the girl ended up with the majority of her mother's blood and power, whereas the boy had far more human in him. Much to Soma's rage, she was born shortly after her brother by mere minutes, meaning she could never hold the throne of Shihou.<br/><br/>Over the next century she immersed herself in politics and swordplay, growing more and more aggrevated with the foolishness she saw in the country. It was only in this generation, when another travesty of succession happened, that she finally gave up on the country. Taking her most loyal followers with her, she left and lead them on a long exodus to the other side of the continent. Along the way they pulled more followers to them, as well as resources, and decided to finally settle down between Palmeed and Agni.<br/><br/>Little is known after that, but within a few years she started appearing with her men on a magical landship, bartering for supplies and offering to lend their services as warriors to deal with all the threats in the Wilds. Since nobody has managed to actually find her stronghold, and her followers have been refering to her as such, she is now known as the God-King of the Hidden City. She LOVES it.
