[Emuxe]

Ugh, I hate writing appearances. How does this sound?

"His skull, therefore, looks to be almost elfish, riddled with sharp features and angular dives, topped off by an up-pointed knife of a nose. It is a cruel face, a dangerous face.

When asked, he likes to tell people he is only half humani. Most assume the other half is elf. He doesn't bother to correct them."

@Jeyma

I love it.

---

Huh. What should the past of a Fae be?

@Silver Carrot

Could be how they learned which power they gained, how they learned to master it *if they even have), and all the dumb pranks they've pilled on other races 'cause that's a legit hobby. Lolol

History

The Past

Fae tend not to gather in towns or cities. At best, you get a very small village, but more commonly, one family will live by themselves in a secluded home in the woods, often to next to a stream or small lake. Fae grew up with one such family, and as is also customary for her species, moved out to find her own home and a mate when she was ten years old.

The ever-growing humani population, however, coupled with many neutral parties wishing to move away from the cities and form new, smaller settlements, made finding a mate or a quiet place to live difficult, however, and Amber took to doing typical Fae mischief like souring their milk, making their pets and livestock go wild again, steal tools, that kind of thing.

As she got older, she noticed that her magic was very weak for a Fae's, and if she ever tried really hard to force it to work, it would explode out of her and cause her harm. While she pondered this dilemma one day, she came across an elf child playing a set of pan pipes. Amber sat and listened to her for hours, and the elf would smile and play just for her. The two kept this relationship up for weeks. No words spoken, so greetings, just music. One day, the naturally curious Amber asked if she could play the pan pipes for a while. The elf girl happily agreed, and when Amber started to play, the plants around her started to grow.

Their relationship lasted for several years, and in that time the elf girl taught Amber how to play these pan pipes expertly, and even gave her them as a gift. But, one day, the elf girl disappeared, and in her place was an elf woman, who wanted to travel the world and see where adventure would take her, so she disappeared from Amber's life, leaving her alone once again.

The Present

Amber is now in her own adulthood and her search for a mate, or even others of her species, has proved fruitless thus far, though she still gains pleasure from the occasional prank. She is more mature now, however, and understands more that her actions sometimes cause harm, so her pranks have gotten less...mean than they used to be.

Amber has become reliant on the pan pipes as the vessel in which she can focus her magic, though it's not clear whether his has amplified or limited her magic power. What she does know is that she can no longer use magic without the focus of a melody, even though the extent of her magical power over plant growth and animal behavior is fairly weak compared to what many other Faes or Elves would be capable of. She is simply too scared to try magic without the pipes anymore.

@Silver Carrot I like her, she's accepted!

I just wanna give the poor thing a hug though...

[Silver Carrot]

Really? People this RP who's seen war, death, abandonment by their parents, Crucifixion, and you're getting feels because a fairy made a friend who moved on?

I am just that damn good :p

[Emuxe]

LONELINESS IS CRIPPLING.

[Tortoise]

@Silver Carrot
My character is gonna hate your character so, so much.

Just thought you'd wanna know <3

[Emuxe]

@Jeyma And everyone's gonna hate yours. <3

I need to finish mine but cbf figuring out history.

[Tortoise]

@Jeyma And everyone's gonna hate yours. <3

@Emuxe

My character will hate them all back! Disdain is everything.

Like, he doesn't hate forests themselves: he hates the idea that they deserve to be glorified or protected as anything more than a moderately useful resource. He can't see anything more than a collection of trees and sticks and animals just trying to survive, making them no more innocent or pure than any sentient being doing the same. There is nothing special there. He wouldn't be the sort to ever have a pet

[Silver Carrot]

@Jeyma

"Please, tell me more about your views on the forest!"

*Starts playing really loud, screechy notes on the pan pipes every time he tries to speak.

"What? I'm not stopping you. Carry on!"

[Emuxe]

@Silver Carrot Lol, such a dick.

I can imagine Lark nicknaming the Nephilim "Ghosts" due to how white they are. Pale skin and white coats.

Lark: "Tch, time to go. Damned Ghosts are here to spoil the fun." *spits*

@Scyntell

I actually really like that haha

@Scyntell

But what if those ghosts were...

...HIS PARENTS?



(I meant that as a joke, but that would be pretty interesting: if he couldn't recognize his parents because becoming a Nephilim had changed them so much, and they didn't recognize him because he had changed so much over the years. They might walk right by eachother, and nothing more would happen than an angry look. Fate has a sense of humor indeed. )

[Scyntell]

@Jeyma

The plot thickens!

[Shmektheshmuck]
