Name: Sylvie
Age: 387(21)
Gender: Female
Race: Human, Magi(Life)
Appearance:
Personality: Sylvie has been around a long time and one thing that she hasn't been was consistent with her own personality. On the surface she has adapted her mannerisms to match up with the culture of the times but beneath that she is always a caring and compassionate person. With every incarnation she has become adept at altering her mannerisms to prevent being recognized. Sylvie works hard to keep herself up to date and by now is a gifted actress. Currently she prefers a more calm and detached demeanor.
By necessity she considers herself to be a separate person from other copies of herself, consciously avoiding considering whether or not she is the 'real one' by deciding that all of them are as real as any other, and have their own lives that she will not waste frivolously. Far from seeing them as disposable tools, she views that as being her own family, her own sisters and daughters.
Despite best efforts, she feels remorse when copying the consciousness of her primary body, referred to as her Alpha, into another, effectively overwriting the other personality.
Abilities:
With an affinity for Life, Sylvie is a gifted healer, considering herself a flesh-smith that can form and fix flesh with remarkable ease. She has lived a long life to practice her art, refining it over many iterations. The main body of her work lies in creating Homunculi copies of herself to fall back on in case of her suffering from a serious injury or death.
While the majority share the same apparent age and appearance, there are some variances built into others, such as differing ages or the careful addition of other less human bloodlines. A favorite of hers is a half breed youkai with fox ears and a tail.
Skills:
Fencing - Sylvie learned fencing when dueling was fashionable in Europe, taking a saber as her preferred weapon.
Medical Knowledge - She possesses in depth knowledge of human biology, necessary for her work.
Pilot Training - Sylvie was trained as a pilot between the world wars and flew combat missions on the eastern front during the second.
Equipment: On her person Sylvie carries little aside from some raw materials to use in her magic. These supplies can be used for major or minor healing up to the loss of a limb. Often she may also carry a dueling saber.
In property she has amassed a large but discrete number of real estate holdings, more than half of which house at least a small lab in order to keep her spare bodies distributed and more closely available wherever she is.
Brief Backstory:
Sylvie(Last name varies) has been around a very long time. Her first forays into crafting her own immortality came during the middle of her first life but true success came much later as her health and strength began to fail. With that success the new copy, holding the lifetime of memories of the original but wholly its own being had the misfortune to bear witness to the decline and eventual death of the original. Sylvie vowed never to go through such a thing again. Successive copies have all been created perfect, unaffected by age. Any deaths suffered by them must come from violent means, typically out of sight from the next backup.
In more recent history she has decided to continue traveling the world, immersing herself in other cultures and events. With the world constantly evolving and travel being so easy she makes the most of her potentially endless life by experiencing as much as she can. Currently she is posing as the owner of the Nine Tails Cafe in Minazawa. Sylvie offers bounties to people that solve supernatural crimes and mysteries, paid out of her own fortune.
