What are Fa'e? Fa'e are breedable pets. They're beautiful pieces of art that you roleplay as. They're a community where people don't godmode or compete or dramatize everything too much. They were created by Anya! Who still does their drawings, and she's assisted by Eirnae and Lenore, amongst many many other Fa'e owners.


Why I want a Fa'e:
To be honest?
The art is half the reason. I have a deep-seated love for art in general, and Anya's specifically. The Fa'e are such an amazing idea, especially when the art is combined with the interesting and intelligent roleplayers of the other Fa'e. I love the way that the group seems to be active and interested in what's going on, as well as keeping up with their characters. It's about the ideas that come to life, and that's something I've always enjoyed seeing.

Of course, there's also the challenge. I always love coming up with interesting ideas, though admittedly this is not the most -unique- of the ideas I've had in the past, but the challenge with this was making her original while still fitting her into a certain template, which is invigorating.

And then, there's the problem. You see, at first I was in it just for giggles. I mean, I love writing contests, and entering them, and that's about what this was for me. A shot in the dark, so to speak. A chance to live up to the challenge.

But I fell in love with her. (isn't that always the excuse?)

I absolutely adore my character concept, and I'd like to see her realized. As much as I try to get it out of my head, knowing that it's an impossible goal...she keeps coming back. So I have to try. Hopefully this thread will give me a bit of an incentive to keep working at it, hm? Or at least to play with her a bit.

I intend to keep here any updates on her personality/history/whatever that I make, stuff that I buy thinking of her, that sort of thing. Also, I expect to write a few story snippets from her past, and of her thoughts should she become 'real'.

Name: Claennis

Meaning of name: Anglo-Saxon for "Purity"

Likes:

Melted Ice Cream: Even better than regular ice cream. It's all melty and gooey and goes down your throat just like milk, only thicker. Claennis can't get enough of the stuff-- and she adores just about every flavour on the list, even the odder ones.

Warm Climates: She does not like to be cold. This probably has to do with sword forging and such. She gets very sulky when she's not kept properly warm, so it's definitely easy to tell if she's cold.

Seaweed: Along with melted ice cream, her favourite food would have to be seaweed. Surprising, considering how spicy the stuff is, but her delicate palette seems to accept it nonethless.

Balance: Claennis is the ultimate in neutral. She prefers things to be not only good, but evil as well. Perfectly balanced. This extends to everything, however. She likes even numbers as well, and will often play with two toys at once rather than one, that sort of thing.

Platypi: Claennis has an unnatural fondness for platypi. Something that makes Cera, of course, incredibly happy, but completely confuses the daylights out of everyone else.

Dislikes:

Squeaky Toys: They're loud. They're obnoxious. They serve no purpose. Even as an infant, these toys ceased to excite the little girl as much as they would most children. She simply cannot abide the squeakiness of them, I suppose.

Disruptions: When Claennis is accomplishing something, she does -not- like to be interrupted. Even if the interruption would prevent her from making a mistake. In fact, however, it more often causes mistakes-- she gets distracted and forgets what she was doing.

Destruction: In a manner of speaking. She can't abide unnecessary destruction. There is, obviously, some difference here. Afterall, a balance must be struck-- for every creation, something must be destroyed.



Personality: (In the process of being updated. xD. Template from the Missing Shard application.)

Infant/Toddler: Eerily quiet. Claennis is the sort to lie back and watch the world going on around her, to soak it all in. She seems to be observing the world more than anything else, though even at a young age you can see judgment and analysis going on behind those cloudy gray eyes.

Child: Still rather quiet. Claennis is incredibly naive, and comes off as very delicate. She's obviously very confused, and easily manipulated at this point. Still, she has an unnatural grace about her-- even so young her body is built to be a living weapon. She begins learning here, how to use weapons properly and soaks up all the lessons she can that have to do with it. She also starts developing her sense of right and wrong, and her love for order, prefering to have her toys put away nicely than strewn out about the floor, etc.

Teen/Youth: (in progress)
Global Interaction: (Take a good look at your character. What are the things that define him best? Things like Thoughtful, Insightful, etc. Describe these traits briefly.)
Character Interaction: (How does he/she act around others? )
Personal Interaction: (How does he/she act around people he/she knows well? How about when he/she is all alone? )
Way of Life: (What values are important to him/her?)

Appearance:

Face: Claennis' features are very severe. All sharp angles and high cheekbones. Her nose is rather flat and wide, but the rest of her features very much resemble those of a bird. Her eyebrows are rather thick and heavy, her mouth wide.

Hair: Soft and silky, her hair is a dull gray in colour. It falls to about her chin, straight but messy with a few strands almost always sticking out here and there. She has no bangs, all of her hair being approximately the same length.

Eyes: Steely gray like a cloudy sky. Her eyes are angled and narrow, with incredible visual capacity. Sadly, she lacks the ability to see colours very well. Particularly bright colours stand out, but simply seem brighter shades of the grays, blacks, and whites, she sees all the world in.

Body: She has a bit of meat on her bones. Er. That is, she's not particularly skinny, but not overweight either. She's solidly built, obviously made for practicality and not for aesthetic value. Her bust is not particularly large nor is it small. Her hips are very wide, child-bearing type hips.

Voice: (Thinking about it)

Costume: In her younger days, she's more inclined to wear white. Her first outfit (toddler form) would be a plain (shapeless) white shift. As a child, she would prefer pants to a dress, but still with no decoration or seeming style to either the pants or the plain white tunic she wears. As a teen, however, she would be putting on the armor. Simple chain mail here, a shirt and chainmail skirt, perhaps. Or leggings. Over it of course a tabard of some sort. As a youth/adult, she'd move on to full-blown plate mail. We're talking the stuff you see Knights in the King Arthur legends wearing for formal occasions.

Powers:

Weapon wielding: Her primary ability is that to wield any weapon that comes to hand, particularly swords, but she tends to pick up on others fairly quickly as well.

Impervious: Claennis -cannot- be cut. She could easily be killed or harmed in any other fashion, but her skin does not break. At all. She is, quite literally, invincible to physical injury.

Powers relation to mythos: Well, obviously, being a weapon herself she ought to have some ability to weild them. She understands weapons as no other person can. ...the other, well, Excalibur was mentioned to be unbreakable, so it should only make sense that Claennis would be as well, being the personification of Excalibur.

History: (in brief)

When the Lady of the Lake recovered the sword, Excalibur, it lay in her clutches for a goodly amount of time, guarded. However, there were rumours that many sought out the sword, and were coming closer and closer to finding it. Because of this, the Lady cast such a spell upon it that the sword could never be used for evil purposes. Indeed, the sword transformed into an infant child, a girl who possessed all the qualities of the sword, but who could protect them from those who would abuse them. The girl was sent forth to find a guardian that would care for her until she could grow and seek out King Arthur, and perhaps the scabbard.

She was created, however, in mistake on another planet. She appeared suddenly in the dark, misty caverns of another world.
