just waiting on urukhai :)

Elementals: Void Assault

It couldn’t be helped when Thema felt a twinge of embarrassment when Gilfred approached her. Though they were now able to make their escape, the fact that she had to use such a grotesque ability was humiliating and almost laughable. The worst part was she didn’t even mean to do it. it just kinda happened. Like her power evolved or adapted to the situation that was at hand.

"We should probably head out now, you go ahead and take lead," said the metal bender. "Also, thanks."

His breathing was heavy and he had a few scratch marks on his body, but didn’t seem to be in too terrible of a shape. While her healing skills werent fully developed, Thema had no doubts that she couldn’t heal him up. But Gilfred was a tough man. If anything, he took pride in showing off his battle wounds. Men. Since they both seemed in decent shape, the question Thema wanted an answer to was “What now?” She had no clue how to continue on or where they were supposed to go. But after a few moments of silent deliberation, she decided the best bet was to retrace their steps and head back towards the Haven. Or was it?

If she wanted, now would be the perfect chance to rewind. Thema didn’t care for half the elementals and the ones she did like were either dead or by her side. Her quaint past beckoned to her, like a siren to a sailor. It was hypnotizing. But she couldn’t allow herself to run away. After all that had happened the past couple days, to run away would be the worst path to choose. Thema shook her head and evacuated that thought from her mind and pressed forward with Gilfred through the desert wasteland. She couldn’t think such selfish thoughts anymore. Others depended on her. Gilfred depended on her. As they trudged through the shifting sands, she turned to him asked, “What should we do now?”

A thick layer of dust fluttered around Thema. Her hands clutched onto Gilfred as he led her to a safe distance that was farther away from Aerilyn. It was hard to see through the storm the air elemental had created and as much as Thema hated relying on someone else, it was nice to have backup.

"Well it looks like our roll as guards has met its end, eh?" Said Gilfred as he released Thema. "I suppose this is the part where I ask you to keep close, so that way you can save my skin when something in there goes wrong?" A mischievous grin grew on his face as he spoke.

Thema nodded in appreciation for his help and watched as Gilfred began to duel one of the Vygorns. Though he won that round, two others began advancing towards him. Thema took this as her queue to step in. The plant mage uncorked her small vial and lobbed the contents towards her enemies. She expected the same results as last time: exploding seeds which release constricting vines. Though to her surprise, something much different happened. Rather than detonating, the seeds that scattered across the field began to enlarge and swell. Soon they stood two feet tall and were thicker than soccer balls.

Thema was unsure what was going on. How were these giant seeds supposed to help fend off the Vygorns? As the masked enemies approached, the bulbs began to vibrate. Soon after, they bloomed, exhuming a foul gas that the storms winds carried throughout the field. The smell was so putrid, the Vygorns began to cough and tear up. Though they tried to advance, one fell to the floor, gasping for fresh air while the other began to puke from the retched stench. Thema began to feel her stomach churn and pulled her tunic up to cover her mouth to try and filter the gas. She called for Gilfred, hoping he would retreat from the battle with her while the Vygorns were weakened.

EVA Character Files

Here is my finished cs. I went with a girl since they seem to be the minority. Her appearance is mainly based off of Lupita Nyong’o and Samira Washington. I hope you don’t mind her history. I know there are no forests, but I figured cities still have parks/lots/fields.

my cs

Name: Thema.

Age: Nineteen.

Element: Flora.

Appearance: Thema is a beautiful girl with skin the color of dark chocolate and thick, succulent lips. She is of average height and keeps her curly hair cut short. Her brown eyes and long eyelashes are typically hidden beneath the shadow of a cowl she wears. She prefers to blend in rather than stand out, so she does her best to cover any unique qualities she bears. Her many layers of clothing cover most of her body, protecting her from most outside forces. Her boots have many scuffs, her tunic has tears, and her leather belt is worn out, but Thema gladly places comfort and protection over something as trivial as appearance.

Personality: Thema has never been one for decadency. She takes what she needs; no less, no more. Her blunt demeanor typically gets her what she desires from most merchants, except for a few who barter too much for her liking. She is very self-sufficient and makes use of what she has. While she appears indifferent towards most things, there are rare instances where fiery passion erupts from her core. Her emotions are unmanaged due to her years of solitude and sometimes escape, showing her true colors. But for the most part, she is as stoical as she appears. Most importantly, Thema is no longer afraid to be alone because she is no longer alone. She has friends all around and they will fight to protect her at all costs.

History: Just like many children born to this era, Thema was abandoned to a shelter at a young age. The shelter was overpopulated and was nearly impossible for the staff to care for every child. Luckily, Thema was very tolerant of their neglect for responsibility and actually preferred being left alone. It was on one of those nights where she had been alone that she discovered her powers.

While traversing through the town, a nearly empty alleyway beckoned for Thema. As she walked down the alley, the people that took refuge there stared her down. Increasing her pace, she made it to the end, where the alley opened up to a grassy field that was overgrown with weeds. Towards the end, a greenhouse that had been abandoned was overgrown with plant life. It seemed as though the plants moved with Thema. Buds bloomed and vines coiled as she rummaged through the shack, but a loud noise indicated the presence of another being. A man had followed her and planned to do unspeakable things to the young girl. As she cowered in fear, the plants came alive, twisting around his limbs and constricting his movement. Thema was in utter shock, unable to comprehend what was happening. As the vines untangled, the beggar ran off. That was the first experience Thema had with her powers.

Thema now lives in that greenhouse, making a living off of pickpocketing and thieving the public. The plants protect her from harm, healing not only her body, but mind as well. There have been rumors circulating that a witch lives in the shack, but nobody dares step into the field, for they fear the ivy that covers the land as it leaves the body covered in blisters and welts. Everyone fears it except for Thema.

Feel for element: Being imbued with the power of plant manipulation has offered Thema the immunity to most—if not all—poisons. Her cells are also a hybridization of animal and plant cells, allowing for thicker skin and minor self-sustainability. She can also manipulate most living plants, but has a tougher time conjuring them. She has also been studying her healing capabilities and finds it possible, albeit difficult to accomplish.

Enchanted items: A dagger constantly slicked with poison. Gloves that enhance her ability to conjure and manipulate plant life. A utility belt that holds various alchemical ingredients. Most have healing or ailing properties.

Pet: A treant that stands around seven feet tall.
