Character Biography
Basic Attributes:
First Name: Davina (means Beloved)
Last Name: None (related story)
Gender: Female
Race: Dark Elf—however, she was born as an albino.
Age: Two hundred twenty-seven in elf years and appears to be twenty in human years. Quite young for an elf.
Height: 5 feet tall, which is fairly tall for a dark elf.
Skin: It naturally lacks pigment and she has no freckles. Takes means to disguise self accordingly, if need be.
Eyes: Appear pink in bright light; usually a vibrant red. Long oval/almost-almond shape. They’re set normal length apart. Not wide-eyed. Eyes are mysterious, narrow, and intense.
Face: Oval; long. Slanted, angular eyebrows. Normal/high cheek bones. Appears focused and elegant, but not weak. Alluring gaze.
Nose: Not too stubby or too long, but it’s long enough to be in proportion to her face.
Mouth: Pouty, full lips lacking pigment; keeps them deep red via cosmetic innovation.
Hair: A bit past shoulder-length. Thick, straight, and swishy. Naturally white, but “dyed” black. She has a stubborn streak that won’t dye and it remains white. She generally wears her hair down and parted on the left. The white streak in her hair is on the right side of her face.
Nails: Long, slightly-pointy, and sharp. She colors them red from time to time.
“Assets”: Full, perky, medium-sized breasts (not too big, but more than adequate.)
“Other Assets”: Baby got “back”… and hips. Lots of curves.
Magickal Capabilities?: Possesses a minor amount of magic, but only specializes in/practices imbuing objects (etc) in the beginning. She might never pursue her fledgling talent… who knows?
City of Origin: She’d rather not claim it… but she is a dark elf after all, so figure it out!
Class/Occupation: It changes over the course of her adventures, but she starts out as a bounty hunter/assassin, but she eventually fronts as a melee figure. She’s not a rogue. She knows a lot of smugglers too.
Clothing: If she’s trying to fit in and not be noticed (which is usually the case,) she usually wears a long, black, hooded, velvet cloak. Prefers tall, black, lace-up boots. As an assassin/bounty hunter, she wears whatever the job requires. When she fronts as a melee, she wears simple armor (skirt and sleeveless top) along with arm guards. Her clothing has black fur trim.
Jewelry: Has several ear piercings. On her left ear, she has a silver hoop through the cartilage and two piercings in the regular part of her ear. One of them is a plain, silver ball and the other is an intricate, silver, dangling earrings with four dark red stones hanging from it. The right ear has the same piercings, minus the hoop. These earrings were her mother’s. She wears a torn, black, cloth choker around her neck. (Related story.)
First Impression: If she’s wearing her cloak, you probably won’t have an impression of her… because she doesn’t want to be seen, so you probably won’t even get to see her. If you do, the unnatural whiteness of her skin will most likely cause you to do a double-take, but nothing more. If you actually see her in somewhat normal attire, then the first impression will vary from person to person. Most sentient beings are taken aback, because they can’t quite place her race. Too pale for a wood elf… Can’t be a dark elf either… Maybe a wood elf and high elf half-breed? Mutt… Males and often females are struck by her appearance. She exudes sexuality without knowing it or meaning to do so. Other females are often intimidated (and so are males sometimes!) She has a mystifying effect on others; sometimes, she appears to be a wee bit on the grumpy side.
Strengths: She is slightly more agile and dexterous than the majority of her race; however, she doesn’t possess the agility or dexterity of a skilled wood elf and she possesses far less dexterity than a gnomish tinkerer would. She is more than adequately strong for her race and she has a decent amount of stamina, although she has less stamina than warriors of less delicate races, such as humans, dwarves, and so on. Although she isn’t necessarily wise, she has a keen intellect. Her skills as an assassin mostly stem from her manipulative abilities and cunning rather than from her physical attributes. She’s usually very composed.
Weaknesses: Although she can play the part of a charming seductress, she lacks charisma in the sense that most people are distrustful of her because of her unusual appearance. She also has a tendency to be a bit secretive and stubborn—very stubborn. It’s hard to break past her defensive shell sometimes. Although it’s not a weakness exactly, she has a tendency to be bitingly sarcastic and cynical. She finds it to be an asset, but it bothers others at times. She is insecure and defensive of her skin color. Although she’s usually a composed individual, she has the tendency to go a bit ballistic if you criticize her directly. She does not usually take criticism well… Even if it is constructive… If she seems to take it well, then watch out—she’s a bomb that’s waiting to explode. Oh yeah… she doesn’t like spiders—at all.
Familiars, etc: Some prefer horses… other’s prefer girwalizas (giant lizards), but her “beast of burden” of choice is a kafelinya—a.k.a. a giant saber-tooth tiger-like creature. His name is Vasephyr and his coat pattern is that of a white tigers, except it is inverted. The stripes are white and the main coat color is black. They were raised together and are very close. They are protective of each other.
