Okay, that wasn't supposed to be happen. Damn the quoting system sucks on the new forum.

Ikina Vear

Age: 23
Gender: Female
Race: Tiefling - Tieflings are human-based planetouched, native outsiders that are infused with the touch of the fiendish planes, most often through descent from fiends — demons, devils, evil deities, and others who have bred with humans.

Job/Skills: While holding a minor knowledge in blacksmithing, enough to make normal repairs to weapons and armors, her true knowledge base has always been combat - despite the peaceful nature of the town. She easily picked her bow up as a known hunter in the small town and often spent most of her spare time practicing various martial styles that she had 'seemed' to pick up from the imagination of her own mind. Besides this, she knows basic survival knowledge and can survive - in theory - indefinitely in the wild without the need for a market, farms, or artificial shelter.

Magic: While unknown to herself and others, her linage mixed with elvish blood has given her a deep, subtle, and powerful magic aura. Though untrained and unfocused right now, it grants her unusually high reflexes even for a seasoned warrior and keen awareness in reading body language when it comes to physical harm, having made her one of the best hunters in Penderghast. The limits or potential of actually honing this magic into it's more powerful forms is also unknown.

Personality: Despite her dark heritage she seems to hold a surprisingly high moral center, though she does tend to slip from time to time, giving into a more depressed and cold attitude. She is also a very attentive individual and when she finds a task worth doing or feels something must be done, she is both focused and determined to see the task done. On more causal matters, she tends to be laid back and carefree, giving to a witty sarcastic remark in an attempt to bring some humor. Behind her outer shell though, she is a true hopeless romantic, but tends to be hesitant about letting certain people in.


Better.

A few names to know ahead of time, and I'll drop more in the rp (and I'll provide a running Dramatis Personae in this PM convo, as distinct from the IC one). You can also feel free to create 'NPCs' as it were, where fitting.

Old Man Sturges: Mayor of Penderghast, by virtue of no one else wanting the job and the fact that he's had it for decades. (Human) His official duties are fairly limited, but occasionally mediates small disputes. Widely respected.
Gardad Norcidik: Constable, watch captain, smith, head of the villiage militia (every able bodied person, on the very rare occasions its needed) (Dwarf)
Denna Ivlessi: An Elf druid living out in the nearby forest. Has a tense relationship with the villiage, but serves as a herb woman/etc and purchases supplies in village.
Doruk One-Arm: Former adventurer, retired. Missing an arm. Bartender and Owner of Logar's Helm. Half-orc.
Adeles Illiea: Retired adventurer, originally from Penderghast. Doruk was of her party. Human.
Sister Agata: Tiefling, Prietess of Tyria (Harvest and Fertility Goddess).
Gimble Noblenockle: Tinker and Owner of the small general store in the villiage. Also a carpenter. Gnome.

Penderghast: Small village on the shores of the small Lake Pender (which is part of the Gorran River)
Medios: Large wealthy city-state at the confluence of the Dragonfall River and the East Dragonfall River. Rules a swath of land including Penderghast and its neighbors. Ruled by Count Tyros del'Askander and the Council of Notables.
Fort Rakarion: Up the Gorran river from Penderghast quite some distance. A military and administrative center for Medios. Taxes from Penderghast are run through there.

What the blubbering oozing demons I describe approximately look like, give or take. Its easier to pirate a known picture than spend an extra hundred words trying to capture its appearance.

Nope, not stepping on my toes at all. We're working together on this story, so your character does her thing, and the other characters will do their thing, and we'll see what comes out of the blender.

No worries. I was on a plane almost all day yesterday, so I wouldn't have been able to reply yesterday had you replied then.

You don't need to feel sorry about a slow reply rate until you're at like a week without a rep or something. I'm fully aware that life happens. There's no rush. :)

Hey, not to spoil anything ... and I should've discussed this with you earlier, but I had imagined Ikina's demon blood to be more from the cold realms of hell ... so she's have a minor resistance to coldness, but flame. Also thinking whatever demon blood is in her blood, it comes from demons that are more indifferent, cold-blooded (in the emotional sense) and obviously, more resistant to cold than fire. Figured they'd also be known assassins and somehow Ikina's elven blood has drawn that out and eventually able to match/surpass their own. Unless that ruins a part of the story, that is?

These are all just ideas, so feel free to say whatever in reply. :)

There are lots of kinds of demons. Some ice-themed, some not. But fiends in general (that is, demons and other lower beings) tend have resistance to fire, if not immunity.

Ikina is not a full half-demon or even close. The ancestry in her is nonspecfic and diluted - when House Gleaves ran the region, they were almost all half-fiend or quarter fiend, and they had no problem..."spreading the love", as it were, amongst their subjects at their whim. So what Ikina has is enough demonic/fiendish blood for it to manifest in her - her parents obviously had some, but not enough, or else she wouldn't have.

She can have cold resistance as well - though that would mean she wouldn't have resistance to acid or electricity (not that there's anything wrong with the trade off). And as for assassins - there are demons and fiends that are good as assasination, as much as there are demons (like the ooze demons) that are good for nothing but being minions, and all kinds of other demons too.

It doesn't ruin the idea, its just her heiritage is not that specific.

We can work something out that allows us to incorporate your ideas into the rp and setting - this is not just me dictating everything down.
