Universe - Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic
Appearance:
Art Credit
Name: Aella
Age: 16-17
Homeland: Artemyra
Personality: Aella's curiosity comes across first, followed by her thirst for knowledge. She is somewhat rash when her feelings are involved, and tends to act without thinking things through. Under normal circumstances, however, she's decent at planning and tries to make use of that fact whenever possible. She has a bit of a temper when people underestimate her, but also has a tendency to use that to her advantage if she has to. Aside from that, she's caring and outgoing, and enjoys making friends.
History: Born a magician in a society of warrior women wouldn't normally be an issue if she had someone readily available to instruct her. Aella learned what she could from what magicians resided Artemyra, although she trained other things as well. It was important to be proficient with weapons as well, at least to her family, anyway. She learned anyway, deciding that a strong body would likely help her in more ways than one. Soon enough, she began dreaming of adventure beyond her home. It was difficult earning her mother's approval, but her father encouraged her to go and explore. She eventually did, taking her bird companion and leaving. Adjusting to the differences in culture was arduous for her in some cases, seeing as though patriarchal societies were completely new to her. However, she did enjoy her time away. She saw many things and met many people, and was quick to find that not all was well with the world. Aella tried helping out where she could in between time she spent training, although one crisis averted seemed to leave multiple in its wake.
After some time, she too was caught up in one of the ongoing issues. Slavers attacked and captured her and her bird, which she was unable to save when she made her escape. Now grounded, she has little choice but to look around for odd jobs and a new way home.
Magic Type: Life
Specialties: Healing and "Creating"
Others: Dabbles in lightning magic and mental manipulation. Both are unruly and unreliable at times.
Weapon(s): Mainly uses a bronze-plated metal staff topped with one of the birds her home country is famous for. The wings are outspread and fashioned to be used as blades when necessary. She also has a dagger for instances in which magic is not the best course of action.
Clothing and Equipment: She wears the loose-fitting pink garb that many of her people do, although she prefers to wear a white tunic beneath it rather than leave skin bare. She has a desert-traversing cloak for when she's off on her own, and does tend to alter her outfits to suit the climate. She has a satchel that she carries all her supplies in, and carries both her dagger and her water-skin in the sash-belt she wears.
