@Demonic Angel

I have a discord for this. It might help you with your character and I promise you it is drama free. :)

[Demonic Angel]

I hope so. I don't like drama. It sucks.

My new Character:

Pia and Aemilius

"He calls me a survivor, but I don't really know why."

Name:
Pia Jay Sindile, child of the Dragon Aemilius Kimball.

Age:
10

Blood%:
80% Tyro, 20% Nayu

Gender:
Female

Sex Preference:
Asexual

Height:
4'6"

Weight:
About 65 lbs

Physical appearance:
Age younger than 5: See picture above.

Age 5-12:

Age 13-20:

Age 20-30:

Personality:
Pia is curious and adventurous but also still cautious of the world as a whole. She is energetic and playful, caring and empathetic towards others, and loves to spend time outdoors exploring or inside reading a new book. She will talk to anyone who's friendly enough to chat, though she may not trust so easily. Aemilius likes to compare her to a bird: always ready to take flight.

Faction:
None

Pet:
If you asked her she'd say Aemilius, but not really.
She gets along well with the little draconic creatures she's met, but none of them stick around for very long. Neither she nor Aemilius have any real desire to keep a pet.

Exp:
In terms of school subjects:
Aemilius taught her to read and write, and has started trying to teach her more complex things like maths and magic, but so far Pia seems to be a bookworm determined to read all she can, and avoids doing that which she finds difficult (magic) or that which she simply dislikes (math). From books she's read she has various knowledge of the world around her, such as geography and facts about the plants and animals of different areas she's read about, or the histories of any of these areas as well. Aemilius doesn't like talking about the past with her, but does encourage her curiosity and supplies her with whatever books he's can on subjects she asks about. Aemilius' lair may not be a great library, but his book collection is fair.

In terms of magical ability and use of powers:
Aside from the two spells Aemilius has managed to teach her, Pia has had trouble keeping her soul's power under control. She can use each of her abilities granted to her by her blood, but the skill and consistency of which she uses them is highly erratic. The only one she has entirely under control is her night vision, which is passive in the first place.

In terms of fighting ability:
Considering the fact that Pia is a little girl, she's not going to do very well in a fight. Not to mention that Aemilius doesn't want to train her in any weapons (more due to the fact that he's a pacifist than anything) but also because he wouldn't know how to train her either. He himself only ever learned unarmed defensive techniques, and that was in his Dragon form. Pia carries a small sword but doesn't know how to use it past "swish swish stab".

Spells:
Rex Chronos - This spell's name means "King of Time" -which fits what it does quite well. Pia can alter time around herself in a very specific way: She can make herself appear however old she wishes, by aging and de-aging herself along her current timeline. The effect only lasts for a day at most, and she needs a day of rest before she can do it again. Returning to her normal age is not a part of the spell and takes no energy to do- she will automatically revert to normal if she falls unconscious or dies while the spell was in effect.

The "current timeline" part is what trips most people up when she tries to explain it. Choices she makes and events that happen will affect her current and older self in different ways;

For example if she were to be cut right now, and then age herself up a few years, she would have a scar where the cut was because that aged-up version's timeline is a direct continuation of her current self; but if she'd aged herself up a few minutes ago she wouldn't have a scar because the cut didn't happen in that aged-up version's timeline. If she were to age up before the cut happened and then age down to her true age, the cut wouldn't be there anymore and wouldn't show up later either because she's not in the same timeline as the aged-up version of herself that got cut.

The age-down part is less confusing, because timelines are more solid in that direction. If Pia was cut and aged down, the cut would vanish until she returned to her true age, when it would then re-appear because it happened in her timeline before the point she's returning to. If Pia was aged down and got cut before returning to her true age, there would be a scar where the cut was because Pia's past is always a part of her current timeline.

If Pia is killed, she automatically reverts to her true age, and the death is irreversible no matter if she was aged up or down from her true age when the killing blow was dealt.

Majestatis - This spell's name means "Majesty" -which has nothing to do with what it does. It is a spell that sets things on fire randomly (Because Pia can't control it all that well yet). Pia has even set herself ablaze with it before. Luckily, they are normal flames that can be put out with water or controlled by anyone with the ability to control flames.

Abilities/Powers:

• Thermal energy manipulation & Conjuration
• Fire manipulation
• Adrenaline boost
• Heat detection
• Fire breath
• Heat resistance
• Hot blood
• Night vision
• She's cold blooded and requires warmth - extreme cold is her bane. Cold damages her stamina and could potentially lock up her muscles. Eventually, after long exposure the cold will force her to sleep.
• Her body can turn hot and overheat quickly - too much activity can cause her to go into a paralyses from exertion.

Weapons:
An old sword given to her by Aemilius, the Mírage Blade which used to belong to him before the Dragon wars. It changes shape depending on the person who wields it, becoming a mirror of their personality. Otherwise it's just another, normal sword. Swish swish stab!

History:

Aemilius Kimball

_{Aemilius is Pia's adoptive father. He's an NPC, but plays an important role in Pia's life and story.
His history is a part of hers.}

Aemilius is ancient, older than pretty much every other dragon we've met so far. As a Dragon God he represented Family and Faithfulness, but once the Dragon war broke out he left the world to its own devices- preferring not to pick a side due to his pacifist nature. He went into the mountains of northern Gaia and has remained there ever since.

He didn't avoid people or panic when anyone came to find him: he likes visitors. In fact, there was a town in his territory where the people from there come to visit him regularly. They talked to him about the past, debated with him over all sorts of things, asked his opinion for help making decisions, and generally just spent time with him. He's not sure why this town never just forgot about him, but he didn't exactly mind that they hadn't.

One day though, about 7 years ago, the people stopped visiting him for a time. For a month, his life was quiet, and he soon realized that he was getting lonely. He normally didn't go to the town himself, but after so long without a peep from them he began to worry.

The town was empty when he got there. No one remained- at least, no one living did. Even the livestock had all been killed. The town looked as if everyone had just dropped what they were doing and went out into the street. There were no bodies in the homes, only out in the fields and road, but there were meals on tables and fireplaces ready to be lit as Aemilius investigated.

On the third day after his discovery of the slaughter, he realized another strange thing: Only the men and women of the village were there. There wasn't a single child's body anywhere to be seen. It didn't register for him at first because he never had any children come visit him, but in a village like this there should have been a few at least, right? He later found some tracks at the far edge of town that led into the forest: a small hoard of tiny people (children, he now realized) being led by two pairs of adult footprints. He followed the trail as far as he could, until it faded away on the rocky soil, and started trying to track them by scent from there. Not too much later, he met Pia.

There were no other people nearby, not even the scent of anyone else was left anymore. Pia was alone, standing on a fallen tree until she saw him and fell off in shock. He had forgotten before he approached that he might be frightening to children like her. She was okay, and stood back up a moment later to peer at him from over the side of the tree. Intent on not scaring her again, Aemilius lay down on the ground where he was, far enough away from her that hopefully she wouldn't be uncomfortable as he watched her. Her curiosity seemed to win out over any fear she may have had though, because a few seconds later she was walking up to him.

She was very young, and when he asked her what her name was, she didn't say anything. Later, she'd tell him that it was "sweetheart", but that was just what her parents had called her so often that she didn't know her own name. Aemilius transformed into his humanoid form and got her to follow him back to the village, until he realised that with no one else there except for bodies, that would be a very bad place for the child. So, instead he took her up the mountain to his lair, and from that point on he's been caring for her as if she was his own child.

He named her Pia Jay Sindile, but calls her "Piaget" (pronounced pia-jay) as a nickname. Sindile means "Survivor", and Piaget means "Little One".

Pia has lived with Aemilius for almost as long as she can remember.

Her only clear memory from before she met the Dragon: The night they stole her and the other children away. A man wearing a black, hooded robe and a woman with piercing blue eyes that looked like they glowed in the moonlight.

They came to her house and took her while she and her parents were asleep, and did the same with all the other kids in town. They'd never see their village again. Most of the others were older than her; she remembered being afraid to talk to them because of that.

The man and the woman led them into the forest, and away away away from town. They made all the children stand in a circle, and then everything went white.

When Pia woke up it was daytime again, and she was all alone in the forest, laying on top of a fallen tree.

She's never told Aemilius about this. She's not sure how long before he found her it all happened.

Trivia:
Likes: The color purple, like the sky at twilight. Birds. Reading.
Dislikes: Math, magic, fighting, and large bodies of water.
Fears: Drowning, being trapped in a room full of strangers, or being lost in large crowds.
Deepest Desire: To find out the truth about that night, what really happened. To find the man in the dark robe, and the woman with the bright blue eyes.

Pia is the character, Aemilius is an NPC

Prometheus Vanguard

“Life is such a slow moving thing which we all have to go through, so why not make it more exciting?”

Name:
Prometheus Vanguard

Age:
16

Species:
Descended

Blood%:
Nayu- 80% Dragon- 20%

Gender:
Female

Sex Preference:
Bi

Height:
5’ 7”

Weight:
150lb

Physical appearance:
Despite Prometheus’s natural lime green eyes and a cold aura that surrounds her baby face features, which help make others fall for her sadistic charms. Her black hair goes just a few inches past her slender shoulders, adding the perfect cover for the pure black scales that cover the girl’s neckline. In the middle of the young woman’s chest is where a single scar starts and travels diagonally to her left shoulder.

Apparel:

Outfit

Personality:
Prometheus tries to keep her quirks hidden from others- though due to their special connection her twin brother catches on to her emotions rather quickly. The first thing you need to look for is any odd movements from her tail. A quick flicker towards either direction, a notable thumping sound against the ground, or even the limb slowly curling around her body. Another quirk (that’s a bit more noticeable) is the girl’s eyes. The young woman’s eyes tend to shiver a dark green when she feels like something is wrong. Granted that this could also show certain emotions such as being upset or angry, depending on how dark the shade is.

• The young woman rather enjoys having her brother and sister around her, though at times this has proven to be difficult. Between the insanity clawing inside her own mind and their ‘protectors’ constant overprotective nature she’s honestly surprised they’ve made it away from their past. When the three are apart the girl’s madness slowly breaks it’s mental seal, making her personality shift from normal teenager to psychotic killer.
• Every single fight the three have tends to break a little chunk of that fragile mental barrier.
• Despite the fact the woman loves spilling blood she does tend to enjoy the simplest of thing. Whether it’s being in a field of flowers, taking a stroll inside the woods, or just climbing a tree. Yes, this might seem to be very childish to most people but then again no one quite understands what fresh hell the triplets were forced into the day their home village was destroyed. If asked about that day Prometheus tends to resort to violence.
• No matter how hard the young woman tries to control that lust for spilling blood, the dangerous side always seems to destroy it’s cage. When this happens it's best to run unless you have one of her siblings around.
• Prometheus has a bad habit of mentally making couples in her head. No one is quite sure why though her brother thinks it’s because it helps her calm down. As long as the girl doesn't allow her mental side to go too wild her triplet siblings see no harm in it.
• The teenager tends to be a bit overwhelming when it comes to pushing people's boundaries. Every time the targeted couple sorta drifts apart the young woman tends to try every trick or stunt within her book to try to keep them together. Yes, even the whole tying them down trick.

Faction:
Dolofon (hopeful)

Exp:

Prometheus, Rhagar, and Minko were taught by their parents until their deaths. Afterwards they were self taught.

Prometheus and Minko were taught how to turn and twist the shadows around their bodies by simple movement. A simple flicker of a wrist could make a simple object granted the image would be rather tiny. They mother also taught them to use their blindness to their their advantage such as their father’s wings flapping in the wind, their oldest sibling’s voice calling out in a whisper, to even the simplest drop of water. Yes, in most cases these are what any blind person is able to do but their mother did this as more of mental training. This would allow them to estimate how long they had until the shadow of the specific object would last. Their father would then help them imagine how big the shape was by description. The couple was going to teach their children much more until their untimely deaths.

As for the self taught part the young woman has taught herself how to form these shadows into actual objects. This would allow her to add sound into her arsenal of ticks. With the help of Rhagar, the micro string thin thread allows the spell knives to make a very quiet chime like sound while adding small vibration into the air. Allowing the woman to echolocate her ‘prey’. For the Shadow Puppet spell the girl has practiced this one most of the time. Granted mostly it’s been mainly used to silence his loud snoring which always seem to keep both girls up at night. Now the woman justs uses it to make the guy plug his nose with random object.

Spells:

Shadow Shards- This spell can only copy x amount of weapons. This mainly depends on the size and weight of the object.( For example: At the most throwing knives Prometheus can create is about 10 or 12 depending on how much they weight. Once the spell is completed She will have gained the perfect replicas. For a much larger weapon such as an ax the young could possibly make one. ) Since the young woman is still learning about her blood and is self teaching herself, the max amount she can make is about 3 or 4, on of those being the original. The copies will act like actual weapons but after about two hits, if not broken from the first throw, will break apart and turn into a black dust like substance. This will also return to it’s original form after battle. Since Prometheus can’t see she mainly uses this spell for echolocation.

Shadow Puppet- Shadow strings wrap around the target’s limbs, attaching themselves to the nervous system, forcing them to do what the user wants. This is a rather powerful spell though the maximum amount of time is 1 hour when mastered fully. This also requires full concentration from the caster making them wde open for any physical or spell damage will will automatically force the user to lose contraction. Though since the young woman is still in training stages her shadow puppet spell only last about 1 minute max. The strings can only from different object’s shadows. For example one shadow sting will come from something like. Another would come from a tree to connect to a different limb and so on.

The max amount as an adult is 20 feet depending on the user’s handle on this spell. The other factors while tie into this spell would also be on the power of the others soul and your power, the time of the day, and distance. At the moment Prometheus can only go about two feet depending on the time from of the day.

Abilities/Powers:

• Invisibility
• Shadow manipulation
• Sound manipulation
• Hemotoxic venom fangs
• Poison resistance
• Blood consumption
• Night vision
• Dragon tail and wings
• She is blind unless able to pass the trial of the King in-game.
• Bright lights will damage her eyes.
• She must feed on blood every 2 days.
• Her hearing is more susceptible to being damaged by loud noises.

Weapons:
Throwing Knives

History:

Fires burning through the familiar houses which the triplets used to play in, streets covered in a crimson tint, while people were being dragged out of their homes for either slaughter or something else. These are just a few of the things the descendant had seen as her small body pushed past it’s limit. She was only forced to hide when figures passed by since the other ones were busy enjoying their activities. Even though the girl was close to these people, which her parents proudly took in and protected, was the single cause for her insanity.

The girl’s search lead her towards the town center were a crowd gathered, as if this was a normal occurrence. A few cheers here and there made the younger sibling shiver in fear. Even though she felt a sickening feeling in the pit of stomach the young woman carried forward, only to regret it almost instantly. The first thing that had caught the descendant’s eyes was her parents tied up forms. A two figures stood up with them though one seemed to be doing a speech. A few more words to the crowd in, as if to count down the couple’s doom. A final word and the hidden axe blade swooped down. As if on instinct the young girl rushed towards the stage as if in a sad attempt to save the two which had given her life.

Only when the familiar crimson coloring few into the air did the child felt pain. Even with her eyesight fading rather quickly she still tried to move tolds the couple. And then darkness consumed her entire world. When Prometheus awakened the remainder of her family was on the run. At some point during their haste the triplets ended up losing each other. In the hopes to find each other they all knew that going to the capital Vrondi.
