Name: Haedan StylesGender: Male
Race: Human
Age: 16
Appearance: Haedan was about your average teenager. He wasn’t popular, at all, and he wasn’t in great shape. With his very dark brown hair that never seemed to go how he wanted it to, and piercing blue-gray eyes, he wasn’t particularly good looking either. So it was no shocker that he didn’t have more than five or so friends. He usually wears button down shirts, or a concert T-shirt of his favorite band, Mumford and Sons, and he usually wears a worn out pair of blue jeans. he usually has long white hair, swept to the side, and unkempt because he really doesn't care about it. It's white because the shock of using his powers turned it white. he doesn't have a lot of acne, but, being a teenager, has some.
Personality: He's kind of Nerdy, really into Marvel, and DC and all the comic franchises. He really likes the manga fairy tail and he also excels at ELA, the teacher comments on how gifted he is at writing all the time. He is not at all narcissistic and is very selfless, and shy. he will not usually talk to a girl, at least not to flirt. he is generally afraid of other people who he deems threatening. (which is Everybody) he likes to play basketball, even though he's pretty bad at it, and he also is about the kindest person that you're ever going to meet. he will defend anyone that he decides is his friend until his last breath if he has to, and will never give up if he sets his mind to doing something, so he's more stubborn than a mule.
Inhuman Powers/Characteristics: can make blue lightning energy stuffs appear in between his hands and make it go all around his body, encasing him in a skintight shell of it. He can shoot out the eneregy in these balls that do huge damage, and he can shoot them rapid fire, like a machine gun.
Backstory:He came from a poor family, ever since his dad left him and his mother, and he never had any friends at school. He left his school when he accidentally blew it up while discovering his powers, and he met Nyla when he was at his first High school party, which he had to leave because oof the FBI chasing him. He left his house and went on the run with Nyla, whose last name he never finds out. Her powers are that she's super strong and super fast, and she's really tough. he ran from the FBI for a while before getting caught and escaping. he is still on the run.
Relevant Family/Relationships: Dating Nyla, His Mother is close to him.
Oddments: he is very nervous a lot of the time, so you will see him fidget a lot, and he often runs his hands through his hair. he has a habit of drumming his fingers on any hard surface, and is almost always humming a tune.
Incarnation: the end of the book.
I don't think so, and mines was earth. I just finished another instalment of my novel. should I post it?
Name: Illian Rouse
Gender: Female
Race: Human... for the most part.
Age: 15
Appearance: She looks pretty average. She has long platinum blonde hair that is so long it reaches the small of her back that she always has slung in two braids. She has gray eyes that always look like they are x-raying you and they seem to always look angry. She's rather tall for her age, about 5'6", with big feet. She appears to be all legs and arms, but she has stout, strong arms and is very muscular. Her ears are not pierced and she has a very rugged look about her. Her skin is very pale as she almost never sees the sun.
Personality: She's sharp, sarcastic, and definitely isn't afraid to speak her mind. She's bold and once she makes up her mind about something, there is no way you're going to change it. She's inhumanly smart and quick, but in her effort to stay normal she tries to hide her brilliance. Despite her mostly saying she doesn't care what people think, she actually does and all her life she's just wanted to be normal. She's got a way with words that can swing a crowd and she almost always knows the exact words to say. She is impulsive, and she'll do just about anything without even thinking about it. She has a eat-or-be-eaten outlook on the world and will let no one get on top of her. She refuses to be controlled, to be ruled by someone on their terms. She breaks rules just because their there and if she thinks that that rule you made is unnecessary, good luck making her follow it. She's definitely got a mind of her own.
Inhuman Powers/Characteristics: She is invincible and super smart. The only downside is that if she touches a bug, she loses those powers. If a bug bites or stings her, say a bee or even something as small as a flea, she dies slowly and painfully. She can still feel pain, but it doesn't kill her. She still needs to eat or else she'll feel the knaw of hunger, but it isn't entirely necessary. She doesn't need to sleep either, but she does it all just in the attempt to keep normal. She has perfect vision and can even sometimes see in the dark.
Backstory: Her mother didn't want her when she got pregnant, so she tried to get an abortion. It didn't work. Illian was sucked out, whole and healthy. No one could explain it. Everyone thought she'd die in a few days. She didn't. The government did tests on her immediately and found out about Illian's strengths and weaknesses, thankfully before she touched a bug. She was held in a secret bug-free labratory where she had tests done every day. She also had things injected into her that kept bugs away, including lice. They started to get a little careless with her. Too many doors left open. Illian escaped by the help of her mother, who she does not have a good relationship with due to the whole abortion thing. She lived in Antarctica, the land of no bugs, with her mother bringing her food every couple of weeks. She lives in a seven-person tent chock full of food, books, blankets, and other necessities.
Relevant Family/Relationships: She has no relatives that she knows or cares about other than her mom, and the relationship is shaky at best. But she does trust her mom to bring her food and not tell the government where she is. She doesn't have any relationships because as a girl living in Antarctica there aren't really that many boys around.
Oddments: see Inhuman Powes/Characteristics
World: Our world. The regular world. She lives in Antarctica just because no bugs can live for long in it.
Incarnation: None, she was recently created.

Your welcome! I didn't really have a complete profile in my mind for any of my other characters yet, so I chose Illian.
She's a bit like Jo, in fact. Gosh, my Gryffindor characters Peder and Jo are like my favorite characters. I would write a fanfiction about them if I could.
I don't know... probably should though.
I wish Laurel would come back - she was like the best moderator ever. And also, I want to continue the Peder/Lorelei relationship. It was just starting and then she left, so Peder has no one at all. And he can't fall in love with someone else, that's just not him.

I loved writing them - I don't usually write romance that often so I'm not very good at it, so it was nice to have someone else think up what the girl would say. It is also kind of fun to "be" a boy for a while, even if it is just a roleplay. Boys are so transparent, so they aren't that hard to play. But since girls aren't, you don't often see a boy playing a girl character.
Whoops. Went off topic there.

I thought Rick Riordan did a pretty good job with Annabeth in the Percy Jackson series (have you read those?) but other than that, I haven't seen any other books that show a good portrayl of a female by a man.
Every time I try to write a romantic scene, I end up having to make sure there aren't so many tacky phrases in them.
I've seen too many chick flicks.

I love most of the Max books, but I really, really don't like Fang--the book, I adore the character--for its ending, and Nevermore... gah! 'End of the world,' indeed. I love Angel--the book, I'm not a fan of the character--but it's caught between the ones I hate, so I don't read it as much as the earlier books.
Name: Zoe SolairGender: Female
Race: Futuristic Human
Age: 17
Appearance: Zoe is 5'4", and around 109 pounds. She is skinny, and delicate but extremely strong. Zoe is fair-skinned, but is tan in the summer time as she spends most of her time outside. Her hair goes down a little past her shoulders. It is wavy, and annoys her a lot of the time so she puts it in a ponytail usually. It is a dirty blonde, with brown highlights. Her eyes are greenish blue, extremely bright, and they shine with hidden intelligence and curiosity. She has long, thin hands, usually fiddling with something. Zoe has somewhat high cheekbones, and her face shape is an inverted triangle. She clenches her jaw when annoyed, and also when concentrating. She also taps her feet all of the time. She looks like this: (view spoiler)
Personality: Zoe is an introvert, and is usually quiet unless she has something good to say. She’s a good listener, and tries to help with problems other people have. She is very secretive, and doesn’t tell anyone her problems. Zoe is extremely smart, and loves riddles and thought-provoking questions. It is very rare that she is fooled, as she is extremely good at observing people. She is extremely persuasive. Her best qualities are that she is intelligent (extremely so) Bookish, extremely helpful and empathetic, and she is a natural leader. As many teachers say, 'She has the quiet leadership skill that most people do not have' ((One of my own teachers actually said that about me)). Some of her worst qualities include, she is secretive, self-conscious, quietly rebellious, shy and persuasive. She is also a perfectionist. Zoe is polite towards adults, but can be slightly rude to those she knows well. She likes to participate in their conversations but it usually annoys them. Most people see her as a shy, slightly annoying, quiet, polite person.
Inhuman Powers/Characteristics: Zoe isnt really that inhuman, she is extremely good with fighting and all manners of self-defense. Zoe is also extremely good with technology.
Backstory: Zoe's mother and father are both time-machine operators (see world), and when she was a child, one or the other was always on a mission (again, see world). The parent that was not on a mission usually stayed home with her, helping her with homework and things like that. All in all, she had a pretty normal childhood... At least until she was 9. Her mother disappeared on a mission, and Zoe wasn't the same after that. She has never had that many friends, only one (who I will make soon).
Relevant Family/Relationships:

Age: She would be 47.

Appearance: http://www.nerdist.com/wp-content/upl...
Mad-scientist-ish.

Oddments:
General Clothing Choice: http://www.polyvore.com/blue_woods/se... Pretty much things like that. Reason for Name: Because it is unusual.

Description of occupation: She stacks bookshelves, helps people, and is a barista. What college do they want to go to: A technology school or a liberal arts school. She is undecided.
Description of living space: Her room is Neon blue on 2 walls, and neon green on the other two. There are floor to ceiling windows on one end, her room is on the second floor and has an incredible view. The door to her bathroom and the door to her closet are on one of the blue walls, and they are black. Her room is opposite from those and the door to the hallway is by the foot of her bed. Her bed is green and blue, and she has a smallish black desk pushed up against the wall underneath one of the windows. Her room is mostly clean, though it does get messy sometimes. Her bathroom is black, with a black toilet, black tiles on the walls, and a black sink. The floor is black rock, like river rocks. There is a blue light below the mirror, giving it a mystical air, and her shower has a blue light coming from the head. There is a drain, and no tub, as she doesn’t like baths. Her closet has dark purple walls, and is color-coded. She presses a button on the screen on the door, and the racks move, making her clothing selection easy to find.

What does she want to be when she grows up: A writer, animator, movie person… Do they have animals: No, her dad is allergic. Religious views: She doesn’t believe in God, she never goes to church
World: Zoe lives in a futuristic Washington (as in the state), around 2075 in year. Time machines have been invented, and it is somewhat of a utopia. The Government (Gov for short) is in control of everything, but all people still help with the descision making process. The Time Machine Operators are people who travel back in time to help with catastrophe's. They also travel different places all over the world. The technology is quite advanced.
Incarnation: This is how she is in my head now, I have only just started writing, so i guess its the beginning.
Alexis wrote: "Bella, have you any idea how much sense that post DIDN'T make?"Well, it made sense when I was writing it... How about I just say that I love Max and the flock? That's hard to mangle, right?
AH! Lex, please don't call him Annie! Please?! And you mispelled Whuelen's name again, grrr....But I'm not actually angry. *sigh* Alight, I'll make one of them. Although Sandra's name might be a problem...?
Then all is well now, yes? Then I'm going to make that character sheet...
Name: Cassandra BruenGender: Female
Race: Human
Age: 17
Appearance:
(view spoiler)
Since I'm not a very good artist, I'll also add this... Cassandra is easily beautiful and has a lovely smile, but, although she isn't ignorant of it, she isn't the type to dwell on that. This changes the way some people see her. She appears youthful even for her age, perhaps because of the energy in her brown eyes, turned to gold in the sunlight. Slight of build and close to five feet tall, she seems almost doll-like, breakable (smaller than in the picture, sorry). She bears a small imperfect crescent of a scar on the back of her left shoulder from when she was a child, too young to remember where it came from.
Personality: She has a cheerful disposition and loves nothing more than spending time with her friends, for whom she would do anything and whom she would forgive no matter what. She is playful and relaxed around those close to her, becoming serious only as the situation demands. Loyalty and truthfulness come so naturally to her that she can hardly imagine betrayal or deceit, which means she can be easily hurt. She can’t ignore anyone’s suffering, no matter who they are, and will do whatever she can, whenever she can, to help the needy, shunned, and poor. Despite her apparent fragility, the thrill of adventure and trying new things excites her; she doesn’t like to be protected, though she may understand if someone tries to keep her safe. The best word to describe her is probably just ‘nice.’
Inhuman Powers/Characteristics: Cassandra can sense, or feel, the emotions of anyone nearby, and she can make any living thing that ‘belongs to the sky’ obey her. Birds love her and often follow her, as well as anything else winged—butterflies, bats, etc. She is also more agile/flexible/dexterous than a normal human, and can, for lack of a better term, control the weather.
Backstory: She grew up on Earth but now lives as the Sky Knight of Arkyla, one of ten Knights who hold together an ancient alliance of many kingdoms. Although it came as a shock to her when she was told she was to become a Knight of an archaic, magical land, she has come to accept and delight in her new life as the Sky Knight; she will always miss the family and friends she left behind on Earth, but she dearly loves her fellow Knights, and doesn’t regret choosing to stay with them.
Relevant Family/Relationships: Her best friend, Serena Diaebri, who was both another Knight and a princess, died about a month ago; they were practically sisters, so Cassandra is still recovering from that. Cassandra’s true sister, Jasmine, she tries not to think about, because Jasmine didn’t go with her to Arkyla and it’s too painful for her. Whuelen Avrenor is her boyfriend and also one of the Knights. Vian Fayriel is her… rival, I guess. They work together often, but both hate it every time.
Oddments: She is almost always wearing blue, usually a dress, and has a white shell pendant shaped like a classic ice-cream cone, given to her by her mother years ago. She always wears the pendant, and often fiddles with it without realizing.
World: Her world is Arkyla, a land woven from the dreams of humans on Earth. I only focus on the medieval-y part of Arkyla, but it’s basically Fantasia, and has no boundaries. There’s everything out there, if you look far enough. Everything in Arkyla is magical, though most of it is solid—as in, the ground doesn’t move and warp or anything like that. There are sights in Arkyla more beautiful than anything on Earth, but also places more awful.
Incarnation: Halfway through the second book.
Hahaha! Yeah, even Kyaza looks like a teenager, though he's wonderfully middle-aged. I'd offer to put up someone a little older, but most of my people are elves.
Lex- it took me about 2 weeks, I've been working on it at school and when you guys where not replying fast enough.
What's with the guilty expression? And thanks... It took a while
Oh no.. It's everyone and I am on all the time so I expect it.
Do you want to RP on HPRP? And you should not feel guilty, I won't allow you to.
No... I don't think so...
Thanks! it took a while, but it was fun.
Name: Whuelen AvrenorGender: Male
Race: Avariel (Also sky elf or winged elf)
Age: 18
Appearance: Whuelen is beautiful, as all my elves are. His skin is paper-white, and marble-smooth—inhumanly so. His hair and feathered wings are white also; he is utterly colorless except for his eyes, which are a luminous gold streaked with black. He has feathery, silken hair that falls jaggedly into his eyes, parted on either side of his face by almost cat-like pointed ears. Neither tall nor short, he is strong and graceful, built like a dancer. He moves with an unconscious grace no human can match (all of my elves do, and even half-elves to some extent). Usually he wears grey and white commoner’s garb, with very thick-soled boots for traversing the rocky terrain of his homeland.
Personality: Whuelen is unconditionally loyal and fiercely protective of his friends; his loved ones mean everything to him, and he shields them from whatever pain or misery he possibly can, no matter the cost to himself. Few people have seen his gentler side, though, the quiet warmth and solace he extends to his closest friends, because he hides his heart beneath a mask of rage and hate. He has a volatile temper, that is no act, but every time he hurts someone in his anger, he literally wants to kill himself. In truth he is more caring than many who claim to be, but all a stranger sees is a harsh, irate, sometimes bitter person with a strange devotion to his friends… and that is how he plans to keep it.
Inhuman Powers/Characteristics: His wings allow him to fly, but only because he has hollow bones, which are easily broken. All of his senses are a great deal better than a human’s, and this can be both a blessing and a curse; although excellent senses are useful at times, loud sounds are painful in his ears, any injury is agonizing with his sensitive skin, a bright light is blinding, and so on. Heat and cold hardly effect him, and his temperature is always the opposite of the temperature of his surroundings; he will be feverish in the snow and frigid in a fire. He is immune to any poison, disease, toxin, plague, or acid, and he can afflict anyone nearby with any poison/disease/toxin/etc. As an elf he could outpace pretty much any human in a race, but he doesn’t look like he’s on fast-forward or anything. Iron and steel burn his skin, and he can’t directly lie. He’s also claustrophobic, fearing any space where he can’t spread his wings or see the sky.
Backstory: Whuelen is the Venom Knight of Arkyla, but when he was a child he couldn’t control the magic that comes with that title. He poisoned and often killed anyone he touched or approached without meaning to, so it was thought that he was cursed, and he was spurned by his own people. His family stayed by him for a time, but his father, Meadrenir, became distant, flinching every time he saw his youngest son and making excuses to stay away. Despite all of this, Meadrenir became afflicted by Aeliophe’s Disease, an extremely rare disease that kills most of its victims, and Whuelen, knowing he was responsible, fled. His brothers followed him, trying to convince him to come home. Failing that, Feldenir, the eldest, returned to the father to care for him. Raven, however, stayed with Whuelen, shadowing him when he tried again to leave. This meant that Raven was poisoned as well. Knowing that his brother would soon die from the venom, Whuelen knelt beside him and willed the venom out of Raven’s veins, curing him. The two went home and Whuelen healed their father, but Meadrenir was still frightened of him; the next year Meadrenir died, killed by a human bandit while trying to avoid Whuelen. When he was seventeen, Whuelen took his place as the Venom Knight, hiding his self-hate behind a mask of anger and resentment. He doesn’t care about his own life, beyond a wish to spare Raven and Feldenir the pain of losing their brother, and the death of a stranger means nothing to him.
Relevant Family/Relationships: Cassandra is his girlfriend, and his brothers Raven and Feldenir are practically always with him; all of them are uneasy when they are separated. His father, Meadrenir, is dead. Vian Fayriel is his sworn enemy, and there is no one he hates more. Anerval Greywhisp is his oath-brother, kind of like a blood brother, but more binding.
Oddments: He caries a set of metallic claws with him that he slides onto his hands in a fight. They look like sun bear claws, but silver. He wears an ebony ring set with a small round emerald on his right hand, his family ring.
World: He lives in Arkyla, a world created by dreaming humans.
Incarnation: Halfway through the second book.
Ugh. Lex, you're killing me. They are around the most, so I made them first. Anerval will probably be next, I think... although how I'm going to do his history, I don't know.
Name: Anerval GreywhispGender: Male
Race: Night Elf
Age: 1016
Appearance: (view spoiler)He has pointed ears, but in this picture his hair is covering them. Also, he’s supposed to be prettier, but I’m not that good an artist. Usually he’s wearing a thorny circlet that glitters like choppy black water, which marks him as the prince of the night elves. Other than that, it’s pretty accurate…
Personality: Anerval is cold and calculating, but usually he exudes a charismatic aura; in public he seems to be the perfect image of chivalry and poise. His acting is flawless, and only those he has allowed to see beneath this guise of a courteous prince know what he is truly like. He is a genius when it comes to plotting, using people like pawns on a chess board and reveling when they play into his hands. When something threatens his plans, he will either tear it—or them—down, or twist the situation to his advantage. He loves making speeches (monologing) and tearing people apart with words. He doesn’t believe he can fail, and he rarely does. He sees humans as fairly useful at best and revolting at worst, and scorns them all.
Inhuman Powers/Characteristics: He is faster and weighs much less than a human like all of my elves, and as a night elf he can turn into a shadow-like mist and/or travel between shadows, disappearing and appearing out of any darkness, as well as having the ability to weave shadows out of nowhere to snuff out light. His senses are much better than a human's.
He can read thoughts and emotions and play with the minds of people and animals, giving them terrible nightmares or forcing them to think differently or simply guiding them like puppets. He doesn’t flaunt this ability, however, as his plans would fall apart if anyone found out about them.
Backstory: Okay, so his story is... complicated. If you want to read it, it's in the spoiler, but it's reeeaaallly long.
The summary is: He's been serving a powerful sorcerer named Fearryn Crimsongate for centuries, the man who empowered the Ten Knights and Anerval. No one knows what he's planning, except for Whuelen, who is sworn to silence. Isendri and Vian Fayriel are his ancient enemies, and he kept Isendri imprisoned for six hundred years at some point. He's currently making sure that Cassandra is unknowingly doing exactly what he wants her to.
The longer version is:
(view spoiler)
Relevant Family/Relationships: His father is King Torren, who is practically a puppet king whose strings Anerval holds. His brother, Prince Ávryael, will do anything for Anerval without question, striving always to gain his favor. Whuelen is his oath-brother, Vian and Isendri are his archenemies, and Fearryn is his master.
Oddments: He carries a black longsword called Jhaedryn, a curved silver dagger, and six silver throwing knives in hidden sheaths. He wears a solid onyx ring on his left hand, and a pristine white pendant shaped like a spear-head.
World: Arkyla, the Dreamworld.
Incarnation: Halfway through the second book.
I saw it on my phone, but it doesnt work on my computer.
I just use links... it seems to work better.
Name: Vian Fayriel (Also Vian Veilwalker, Shayde of Tyr Velar, and the Prince of Souls)Gender: Male
Race: Spirit Elf
Age: 80000+ (just say he’s really, really old)
Appearance: Vian is tall, muscular, and has the usual elegance of my elves. He looks young and beautiful, his features fine and sharp, his skin a flawless white. Luxuriant raven-black hair falls past his shoulders to mid-back, usually partially braided back; his eyes are ice-blue and sparkle as if covered with glitter, fringed by long, dark lashes; and his ears curve smoothly into dull points. The back of his left hand is terribly scarred from a failed attempt at a healing spell, and he always wears a glove to hide it. Everything he wears is black, and yes, he purposefully does it because he’s so pale.
Personality: If Vian seems to care about anyone other than Isendri, he is only using them and/or trying to gain their trust so he can crush them. He delights in others’ pains, especially those caused by him, and laughs at the concept of friendship. In his eyes, everyone is beneath him, and should be honored if he bothers himself to so much as glance at them. He despises humans and is insulted by the very existence of the avariel, and would have massacred both races long ago if not for one of the many oaths he has spoken over the centuries. He hates everything, really, even Isendri, who he also loves. He is randomly mocking, charismatic, angry, or nonchalant, seeming to change completely between one moment and the next. Basically, he is mad.
Inhuman Powers/Characteristics: Vian senses it when someone close by is dying or has recently died, usually in brief flashes of pain, memories, or thoughts conveying their last moments to him. Undead tend to gravitate toward him wherever he is, and he can communicate with ghosts, though he can’t touch them. He can prevent someone from dying by trapping their spirit inside their body, which is agonizing beyond words for whoever he is trying to save. He uses magical runes to do anything from opening a lock to conjuring fire. His senses are more sensitive than a human’s, he has better reflexes and can run faster than a human, and has runes etched on his skin that make him stronger than he normally would be; he is about as strong as the strongest human, no more so. When he wants to, he feels the emotions and hears the thoughts of both Isendri and Nacaia.
Backstory: All you’ll ever know is that he is extremely old and he knew Fearryn eight hundred years ago, unless you chance upon another bit of information regarding him.
Relevant Family/Relationships: Isendri is his beloved twin and Anerval is his nemesis. His sister-in-law, Calennie Featherlance, he protects because Isendri loves her. He grudgingly respects Fearryn, loathes Avediel, and loves Death (as in the one who oversees the dead. Long story). He and Nacaia, a death fairy, are bound together by uncountable oaths and magic, so that they are both wounded when one of them is dealt an injury, and they can share minds. Sollus Sunbinder is as close as he has to a friend, but he thinks of Sollus as more of a fairly pleasant duty than a companion. His cousin is the queen of the spirit elves, Faevari, who he is indifferent to.
Oddments: He carries this sword, Kiruen: (view spoiler)
Kiruen is about five feet long, and it’s supposed to looks like it’s made out of black glass, with lava cracks running down the blade and a pulsating red glow like a heartbeat in the crossguard. The pommel is a dragon’s skull with a large uncut ruby clamped in its jaws, which also represents a heart, with smaller rubies for eyes. I couldn’t make it look right in the picture, though. *sigh*
.He also uses a pair of weapons that look something like these: (view spoiler)
A dagger similar to this: (view spoiler)
And (sorry, he has a lot of weapons) a cedar longbow engraved with runes that glow dimly with a white light. The runes strengthen the wood and string of the bow so that they are harder to break, and an arrow fired from it can kill almost any undead—he became known as ‘the Prince of Souls’ because he could banish any lingering spirit with this bow. It’s called Sacren’mira, Blessed Death.
World: Arkyla, the Dreamworld.
Incarnation: Halfway through the second book.
Name: Isendri Fayriel (Also Isendri Mistweaver)Gender: Male
Race: Spirit Elf
Age: 80000+ (the same age as Vian, whatever that is)
Appearance: During the day, Isendri is Vian’s identical twin; the only way to tell them apart is in their bearing, and their scars. Isendri has a thin scar across his throat, but his hand is unmarked. After the sun goes down, his skin is the dark blue of a clear midnight sky and his eyes are solid silver orbs.
Personality: Where Vian loves torturing others, Isendri hates causing anything pain. He isn’t a pacifist and will not shy away from killing, but he is weary of death and misery. He is patient and quiet, willing to listen and gentle with his words. After so many centuries, he has come to accept that everyone he knows will die—everyone except Vian—and this weighs him down; he seldom laughs or smiles, although when he does it is genuine. While he isn’t conceited, he does expect the proper respect he deserves as both a Knight and a prince. It might seem that he doesn’t care about insults, reining in his anger even at the worst offense, but he never forgets, and will never forgive without an outright apology.
Inhuman Powers/Characteristics: He can see and even touch ghosts, attracts undead like a lure, and sometimes pull someone back from the brink of death. When he wants to, he feels the emotions and hears the thoughts of both Vian and Aery.
From sunrise to sunset during the day, he is weak and can only at great cost use magic, feeling as if his blood is boiling in his veins and burning irons are pressed against his skin. Shadows somewhat lessen this effect, and direct sunlight amplifies it.
At night, he is incredibly fast and strong, able to overtake the swiftest horse and easily crush a man’s skull with one hand. He’s surrounded by an aura of darkness that eats away the light so it can’t touch him, and the temperature around him is freezing. Anyone nearby is plagued by an irrational of him, which is worsened if he looks at them; a touch from him when it is close to midnight can drive someone insane with fear. Creatures of the light—anything that worships or is blessed by the sun—are especially effected by him, and will suffer horribly and/or die at his touch. On the other hand, during the day he would be the one to die from touching them. He can always see perfectly in the dark, and anything more than a dim light hurts his eyes.
Backstory: He doesn’t enjoy talking about his extensive past, and only he and Vian remember it. There is information about him and his brother scattered throughout thousands of scrolls and tomes across Arkyla, but there is no way to tell how much of it is true, if any.
Relevant Family/Relationships: He loves his twin, Vian, and wife, Calennie Featherlance, unreservedly. He is fond of his cousin and queen, Faevari, but not blindly loyal to her. He misses Fearryn, who was at one point his best friend, hates Anerval Greywhisp with every fiber of his being, fears Avediel Havenfire, and despises werewolves.
Oddments: He carries uses two daggers, one something like this: (view spoiler)
and the other kind of like this: (view spoiler)
or a sword vaguely like this: (view spoiler)
World: Arkyla, the Dreamworld.
Incarnation: Halfway through the second book.
