Pretty self-explanatory. If your character has few to no ill intentions, then they belong here.

Aisling Leona Penn xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxLife is nothing but mist.Currently In Cannaire.⇩⇩⇩⇩⇩⇩⇩⇩⇩⇩⇩⇩⇩⇩
Name: Aisling Leona Penn (Ash-Ling Lee-Oh-Na Pen)
Age: 19. Her birthday is on June 29th.
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Homeland: Cannaire
Current Residence: Still in Cannaire.
Occupation: Works at a small seafood restaurant at the docks in Cannaire. It pays enough to buy her necessities, along with a few extra luxuries every now and then.
Relations: She has one older brother and one younger sister.
Her older brother is named Benjamin (Ben) Henry Penn. He's older by around five years. His wife (who he married rather recently) is named Annemarie Louise Taylor-Penn.
Lola Iris Penn is her younger sister by two years.
Her parents' names are Warren Johnathan Penn and Iris Elizabeth Penn.
Biography: Aisling was born into a loving family, in a small cottage on a hill in Cannaire. Her mother stayed at home sewing quilts for a living, while her father was a fisherman. Their home was located smack dab in between the docks by the sea and Lake Ailannes, so business was something pretty easy to get for Warren. Because of this they lived pretty good lives. They never worried too much about money, and they always had what they needed available to them.
That is, until the day the Saile disappeared.
The Saile was the trusty ship Warren used to go out fishing. He'd go on journeys with his crew for weeks at a time on it. They never had any suspicion of it malfunctioning.
On a chilly, foggy, overcast winters' day, when Aisling was eleven, she kissed her father goodbye on the cheek and watched the boat leave the docks for the last time. Weeks passed with no word from him. The family grew nervous, and a little scared. In fact, many families were scared. People living around them had family members on the Saile, as well.
Two months passed. Still no word. The families confirmed their worst fears; They weren't coming back.
Despite the absence of bodies, gravestones were still made. You can come across these markers in a secluded little clearing in the Ahmeyed Forest. Aisling hates going to that clearing, she finds it too eerie.
Naturally, an eleven year old would be devastated at her father's death. She never really spoke much about it. Didn't cry at the service, didn't cry in front of anyone, though she did spend some nights quietly sobbing into her pillow. After a few months, though, she was back to her old self again. Aisling feels that holding onto the memory is better than holding onto the grief.
Aisling grew up the adventurous child. She was curious about everything, wanted to test everything to their limits, including herself. Lots of her time was spent furthering her skills in anything; Tree-climbing, running, lifting, even flying. (Which didn't turn out so well. A broken arm at age eight wasn't her best memory.) Some attempts were a success, other a failure. Nonetheless, she was happy either way, because she knew she tried.
After her father's death, her mother's quilting business couldn't support the four of them. She made their house into an inn, much to Lola's dismay. Lola was one that wanted attention, and with the visitors passing in and out of their house she was deprived of it at times. Aisling didn't mind, though. She liked the company. In fact, she'd try making friends with anyone who stepped over their threshold. Through this Aisling was told many fables and stories that she'd write down in a notebook, which she still has today.
At twelve she developed a strong interest in art, watercolor and calligraphy specifically. As someone determined to get better at anything she could, she spent hours cooped up in her room drawing as much as possible. She started off horribly, but after around a year began a steady climb into becoming a good, self-taught artist.
That same year, a mysterious man came and stayed at their inn. Said he was moving to Cannaire, to a place nearby. He saw Aisling, and insisted upon her taking archery lessons from him. Immediately, with no hesitation, she accepted. She is now a semi-advanced archer, and is still taking lessons from this man.
Personality: Very witty and carefree, but can also be headstrong and stubborn. She doesn't usually let small things get her down.
Aisling is someone who lives with no regrets, and is willing to try anything. She'll never turn down a challenge or dare, so long as it doesn't involve harming an individual for the fun of it. Through this she's sort of learned to be crafty and resourceful, which can come in handy sometimes.
Along with that, Aisling can read facial expressions and emotions pretty well. If someone's sad and they're attempting to hide it, she can tell. She definitely will not embarrass the person by revealing what they feel, though, unless she feels it's necessary.
Weaknesses: She has a hard time saying "no," which can lead her to do some pretty stupid things. In addition to that she hates bugs. Big ones, small ones, microscopic ones, they all freak her out. Aisling also has a fear of letting others down; she becomes filled with guilt and remorse.
Abilities: No specific magical abilities have shown up yet, aside from common spells that all citizens of Pasaid know.
Training: Trained in archery by a mysterious man, named Lawrence. He's around 25. Along with archery, he taught her how to use the items around her to her advantage should she ever be caught without her bow and arrows.
Offense: If she had her bow and arrows, she'd shoot them down. If not, she'd likely reach for the nearest stick and beat you with it. Just saying.
Defense: Aisling is pretty inexperienced in defense. She only knows how to properly dive-roll out of the way of things, and block arrows coming towards her. But she's pretty amateur in that, too.
Clothing he/she normally wears: If she's doing casual things, she likes to wear sleeveless dresses that match her eyes. If she's doing any sort of physical activity, Aisling prefers to wear a tunic and belt, with tights and a pair of old brown boots.
Eye color: Sort of sea green, with small hints of blue.
Hair color: Dirty Blonde
Body type: Slender
Skin color: Pale, but not extremely. Aisling has color, no matter how small the amount may be. She does get somewhat tanner during the summertime, though.
Face: She has a more defined jawline, but softer facial features. Aisling has eyes set apart a little farther than others, with a normal-sized nose and lips.
Other: Aisling always has some sort of satchel with her to store her things, like her notebook of stories, her wallet, and her sketchbook, or things she may find on the docks, like seashells and sometimes money, or even papers that are stuck in between boards or trying to fly away with the wind.

 Username: Lady Culprit
Name: Lysandra Atreides
Age: 19
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Alliance: Good Guy
Homeland: Glasaile
Current Residence: Cannaire
Occupation: Cake Shop Owner
Relations: Octavian Atreides, father; Lucinda Atreides, mother; Julian Atreides, brother
Biography: Lysandra was born on a farm in Glasaile after her father retired from the military. Because he resented his new trade, he tended to spend time training Julian, in hopes that he would join the military in the future. Because her father believed that women didn’t belong in the military, he refused to train her and often persuaded her to spend time with her mother. She taught Lysandra secret family recipes and nurtured her love for baking.
Because her father often stressed discipline and order, there was little time to try to make friends. Instead she spent time with her older brother Julian. Although he is eight years older, they have a very close relationship. Lysandra adores Julian and often emulates him; mainly his interests. After playing with her, or teaching her a new game, he goes off to train. His dedication to training intrigued her and unbeknownst to him, she hid close by and watched him; copying him.
Their relationship changed when Lysandra noticed his body emitting a strange glow. Curious about what it could be, she moved closer and disrupted his routine. Afraid that she had upset him, she ran away. Julian later cornered her and forced her to tell him why she was spying on him. After Lysandra told him that she saw him glowing, he laughed and explained that he was channeling his internal energy, or qi, as he called it. She asked him to teach her. At first, he was only going to teach her how to channel her qi, but because she showed such great potential, he then decided to take it upon himself to teach her combat and weapons mastery as well. Julian never agreed with his father to deny her the choice and after she readily agreed to be his student, he began training her in secret. Together, they developed the technique of using qi to increase their combative abilities as well as channeling the energy into their specially made weapons.
When she turned 19, she decided to pursue her dream of opening a cake shop. After much family persuasion, they let her go to Cannaire, where she bought a run-down cottage. With much hard work, soon it will be fixed it up and she will run her cake shop from the bottom level.
Personality: When she is in her cake shop, she is the perfect hostess: open, friendly, and talkative. In private, she tends to be quiet, reserved and cautious. She is very disciplined and orderly, and likes keeping things neat and clean; is very analytical and detail oriented.
Weaknesses: Because she grew up without friends, she tends to feel nervous and hesitant around other people, giving rise to hesitation. She is also a perfectionist, making her a bit slow to action and very self critical.
She lacks upper body strength and relies upon her legs and any weapon when fighting; and avoids blocking attacks. She can only channel qi for a brief period of time before it begins to drain her strength. And because she has had to hide her fighting abilities, she tends to hesitate, when confronted.
Abilities: Due to the magic in Pasaid, she is able to channel qi to enhance her power. She is also flexible and agile. When it comes to baking, she is the best. Anything that comes from her cake shop will leave you wanting more.
Training: 9 years of hand to hand combat and weapons training. She is skilled with the sword, glaive, and long staff.
Offense: The best offense is a good defense. She tends to wait for her opponent to make the first move before attempting any attack.
Defense: She relies on her speed and flexibility to dodge attacks. If she is forced to block, she will her legs if able.

Name: Casari Kirith Mae (CASS-sarr-ee KIR-ith MAY) “Mae” or “Cass”
Age: 22 years old
Race: Elf
Gender: Female
Homeland: Siohchan
Current Residence: Near Cannaire Village
Occupation: Since Casari does not like to be around the Village, she does not have a job.
Relations: Mae had a little brother named Dante, who died of coughing blood and a fever that grew out of control. Both her parents were already dead from the same illness. Mae still has a little sister, about fifteen years old, living with her grandparents in Cannaire Village.
Biography:
Cass was born into a fisherman’s house. Her father had been very lucky for most of his life, bringing home the best fish. Her mother was a kindly woman who had come from the furthest reaches of Pasaid just to raise her family beside her parents (Casari’s grandparents) who lived in Cannaire Village. Both the parents died of a disease that involved coughing up blood and a raging fever, only after their firstborn died and the third child was born, exactly one year from the third child's birth. Both had been showing symptoms for the years before and after Dante's death, off and on. The entire family had to be quarantined to keep what would be an epidemic from spreading throughout the tiny village.. Cass was born the second of three children.
First was Dante, a brilliant artist with such talent that many people would come to watch him create one of his masterpieces. He was always smiling, quiet, and daydreaming of his next project. He died when he turned fifteen.
Second was Casari herself a few months afterwards, the honest one. In her younger days, she would sit by Dante and watch him create whole new worlds within his canvases. She loved to watch him, and to play with him every day until he died of the disease. She was heartbroken, even more so than her parents. Soon after her beloved brother died, Cass was in an accident that took her sight, or so she told her parents. Only she knows what had transpired that took her sight. Many say that grief had overtaken her and she had recited a spell to prevent her from seeing things that would remind her of her brother, who had painted landscapes around their house. Now she wishes to reverse it.
Third was Jyene (JEENE), an innocent little girl who captured Cass’s heart right away. Cass never got to see her little sister’s face, but it is one of her dreams to regain her sight someday, just to see the face that many proclaimed to be the prettiest of her family, other than the enchanting Casari, “whose beauty was marred only by the grief seen in her glazed teal eyes”. Jyene’s laughter was the only thing that clued Cass in on her sister’s innocence. Casari vowed to protect her and her grandparents, but after her parents died, she was again stricken with grief and she left the village for solitude for a few years. No one in the village wanted to see her go, but she was afraid of passing the virus onto her sister if Cass were to somehow get it.
Within those few years, Jyene grew and Casari learned the ways of the wild, yet still not forgetting her life in the village. Lucky for her, she was already used to her blindness, even aware of obstacles in her path. However, she did not go very far from the village, since she had never been farther than the lake.
Their grandparents are very old, but they are trusted elders in the village.
Personality: Very unpredictable, Cass is very straightforward and blunt. She is not afraid to tell the truth, and she is extremely serious and even dangerous with her violent mood swings. It takes a lot to see her smile, let alone laugh.
Weaknesses: She is blind, hence the cloudy appearance of her teal eyes. Cass is also quick to judge, so some mistakes she makes can be very dangerous. She is also very terrified of being trapped.
Abilities: She has extreme hearing; all of her senses are heightened due to her blindness. She also has very limited magical abilities due to partial training in the village before the illness killed off her parents and her brother. She is able to light fires, and she has a small book of spells that is said to contain the spell she may have used to take her own sight, however, she does not know how to reverse the spell since she cannot read anymore.
Training: She knows how to use a dagger, even in her blindness from being taught by her father. One of the villagers also taught her the basics of magic.
Offense: Casari is best for sneak attacks; her heightened sense of hearing allows her to quiet her footsteps to barely even perceptible.
Defense: Cass is extremely good at hearing the footsteps of her opponent, so she can react more quickly to an attack from the behind.
Clothing she normally wears: She always wears a blue-gray tunic with splotches of different shades of blue, almost like a camouflage and dark gray leggings with a pair of old worn down, black boots.
Eye color: Her eyes are teal, but slightly cloudy because of her blindness.
Hair color: Her hair used to be blonde, but after most of her family died, she dyed it red to symbolize the death of many family members.
Body type: Cass is tall and thin, very muscular and lithe, a typical elf maiden.
Skin color: She is rather pale, but a healthy peach color
Face: Her jaw line is angular and almost catlike.
Other: She has the typical pointed ears of an elf her age.

Username:Dirk57Name:Dirk PhoenixAge: 28Race: Human/Fire ElementalistGender: MaleAlliance: GoodHomeland: PasaidCurrent Residence: Athreigh BarracksOccupation: 5th General of Pasaid Royal ArmyRelations: Deceased Father, Mother.Biography: Currently Pasaids Royal Military General. Besides the king with his appointed men, 3 others out rank him, and 4 others are to par.
His father was once a friend to the King and first in command of the royal army,
he died protecting the King from an incredibly well choreographed infiltration job on the castle. Only a small amount of men had gotten into the castle and only a few made it to the King but they were very talented. Dirks father killed them all single handed, protecting the King at the cost of his own life. This was years ago and Dirk has lived in the shadow of his fathers reputation for his entire life, eventually making it to 5th General in command.
Though there is only officially 4 Generals, the 5th General gets the stature of a General without the need to train and maintain a large amount of soldiers. His missions focus on special operations that the King wants done in secret, or when the King is not demonstrating any secret operations the 5th General conducts operations to help the country as he or she sees fit. This rank was created and flawlessly performed by Dirks father before he became First Commander.
Secretly Dirks mother was poor, but beautiful, his father saved her from a slavers ship leaving Pasaid while he was tracking down the source of the slave ring.
Dirks father gave them what money he could to support them, and told Dirk stories from his battles when on leave, and shared his ideals in life shaping Dirk who he is today.
A few days after Dirks father died protecting the King, his mother had also died from an illness that spread throughout the little town they lived in.
Dirks father kept his family a secret from the King until the day he died, he had asked the king to repay him for saving his life by taking Dirk in.
The King could only do what he could, he left the castle to the town where Dirk lived and found him laying before a grave he had made for his mother, too tired from lack of food and water to finish burying her.
The King ordered his men to finish the burial and feed the child, then he was offered a regular position in the army as he grew up to follow in his fathers foot steps, but with royalty training of the finest arts in combat. Dirk accepted, in awe of the King and with nowhere to go.
First taught in royal manners, laws, tactics and ideals, then combat and strategy, Dirk learned from the best in country and on the way discovered a hidden power. Somehow Dirk naturally possessed an element of fire, a trait somewhere lost in the bloodlines of either mother or father, suddenly he was learning from several old wise men who taught him how to control this element, amongst other things.
Eventually Dirk had become a machine, a man sculpted by every influence of Pasaid. Dirk has dedicated his life into protecting the country of Pasaid no matter what the cost.Personality: Though trained by royalty and wise men, it doesn't make him the most polite man in the country, the tactics of training were rough and somewhat cruel. Humor was one of the strongest things which had gotten him through the toughest of situations, he enjoys lightening the darkest of situations no matter how messed up it is.
He's a ladies man, he enjoys being flirtatious with the ladies, but at the same time chivalry was always important to him.
He very much feels like any place in Pasaid is home, even in the presence of the King he feels comfortable speaking to him, looking at him as more of a God Father than a King.
He is extremely honorable and loyal, a morale his father passed to him long ago, Dirk keeps his word.Weaknesses: Caring so much for people, he would sacrifice himself to save even one "worthless" life, this has almost killed him several times.
Dirk is an animal lover.
Dirk has a skill set from several different techniques in combat, sacrificing the mastery of a single skill for the flexibility of different strategies. In other words he may miss with an arrow a little more than a regular soldier. Though the sword is his strongest skill next to his element.Abilities: Fire ElementalTraining: Has royalty training, (Strongest to Weakest)
-Using Fire Element [Several special combat techniques which uses his fire element to assist in combat.]
-2H Sword [Very good with sparring and being outnumbered.]
-Hand to Hand[Has great training with Hand to hand techniques]
-Shield [Moderate use of the shield]
-Archery [Decent but nothing better than a regular Archer in the army]
-Short blades [Trained in defensive styles, less skilled in this area.]Best Offense: Using his Fire Element in sync with his regular fighting.Best Defense: Using his sword to parry.Picture: Dirk PhoenixClothing he normally wears: Dirk wears light armor, a royal leather chest piece with gloves and leg pieces that had been crafted extremely well with thin steel plates. With the addition of small areas of chain mail in important areas. All in all it doesn't cover much, but what it does cover will be able to take a few hits before breaking.Eye color: Changed into an orange red after discovering the use of the Element he possessed, this is a mark of an elementalist.Hair color: A dark maroon most would see it as dark brown unless it reflected a light. This is a questionable trait, whether due to the element or coincidence.Body type: 6'5" Average height, Semi muscular body and decently agile. To scale in provided image.Skin color: Somewhat tanned, tan lines show from wearing armor a lot.Face: Only if you were close enough, you could notice the slight freckles surrounding his nose. He normally keeps his face in a clean shave when he has the time.Other: A dark blue necklace his mother passed to him while she was sick, she said it withheld a future for him, Dirk always thought of it as his good luck charm.

Shoshanna LorannexxxxThe Crowned Jewel of PasaidWe Live For Our p e o p l exxxx. . . But When Do We Live For o u r s e l v e s ?Currently in Athreigh: Abreine CastleName: Shoshanna Janette Loranne. (Show-Shah-Nah Jah-Net Lohr-Anne)
Age: 18. Her birthday is on December 21st.
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Homeland: Athreigh
Current Residence: Still in Athreigh, living in Abriene Castle
Occupation: Queen of Pasaid
Relations: Parents were Robert Loranne II, King of Pasaid through bloodline. He married Islene James, who became Queen of Pasaid.
Biography: From the moment Shoshanna Janette was born, she was covered on everything she needed for the rest of her life. Money? Pff, no need to worry about that, she's royalty! Clothing? The finest seamstresses will work dutifully for the most elegant gowns. Food? Only the best chefs work for her. She was a very important person, and people wanted to impress her. Sho was the princess of Pasaid, after all.
Being given everything she'd ever wanted, you'd expect Shoshanna to be someone spoiled rotten. She was quite the opposite actually. Growing up, she didn't really ask for much except for books. Most of the time she'd use her popularity to her advantage; she could get fresh loaves of bread for the hungry, obtain new clothes for villagers wearing rags.
On the day she turned 6, she began her studies in anything and everything. She had teachers for magic, mathematics, foreign language, history, writing/reading, and science. Sho excelled beautifully in writing and reading and magic, and did pretty well in science. She was average in history, and her lowest scores were in mathematics and foreign language. Overall, though, she was a smart girl, always willing to learn new things.
Since then Shoshanna hasn't really changed much. She's still the same humble, generous, smart person she was years ago.
Shoshanna always had a special connection with her father. He's her hero; she the apple of his eye. Sho remembers being paraded around on her father's shoulders when she was four, and the king would exclaim "look, everyone! It's my crown jewel, Shoshanna, my perfect pearl of the world." His shoulders were the highest place on Earth to her. When she's around her father, she just feels safer.
Personality: Wise and humble, Shoshanna has an air of intelligence about her. Her knowledge and theories of the world and the way it works is pretty astounding for someone of her age. She is almost always certain of the things she says, and never retracts or withdraws a statement from a conversation or argument.
Shoshanna can also be rather reserved. She's more than happy to talk and have fun, but she never tries directing attention towards herself. If she were at a party, for example, Sho would be the one to drop a witty comment in the midst of conversing, rather than draw a crowd to her and tell a story to make everyone laugh. Being the Princess, and soon-to-be Queen of Pasaid, though, attention is something she gets a lot.
Something she really hates is being smothered. Growing up she always had someone tending to her needs or protecting her. She's sick of it; she just wants some freedom. Sho's not a baby.
Weaknesses: If she were to leave the country, she'd be pretty much defenseless due to the absence of a source of magic. Shoshanna also is reluctant to attack any being unless she knows her life is at stake. She'll be hesitant in her attacks if you fight her, most likely.
Abilities: Sho is a very powerful telekinetic.
Training: Among her many tutors, she has one in magic. He trains her to move objects with her mind, mainly. As of now, she's a pretty advanced sorceress when it comes to that. Genevieve's teacher has also taught her the basic spells that most of Pasaid's citizens know, along with other handy tips and tricks to make life easier.
Offense: Shoshanna has no experience with weaponry, so she would use her telekinesis to attack... Only as a last resort, though. There's no way she'd start a fight or willingly hit back.
Defense: Most likely she'll use magic to push the assailant away, then will run in the other direction.
Picture: Picture coming soon
Clothing he/she normally wears: She normally wears sleeveless elegant gowns with small cloaks or capes, in pastel colors or simply white. A circlet graces her head; there's a sapphire in the center of fine silver that's been molded in smooth curves and bends.
Eye color: Medium blue, sort of a clean ocean-y color.
Hair color: Very light, silky blonde.
Body type: Slender
Skin color: Pale, but has a healthy glow to her. She's got rosy cheeks and a clean, smooth complexion.
Face: Very soft, angelic features. Her eyes reflect that of innocence and intelligence. Her lips are a soft pink color and a tad thin.
Other: Her voice is clear and mature-sounding, but a little high-pitched, like a bell.
Other information:
- Being raised in the royal family, this means she was heavily guarded 24/7 in case of attack when she was younger. Now that she's legally an adult, she's given more freedoms, but is still somewhat sheltered. She now longs for the freedom she was deprived of.
- Shoshanna is on a quest for knowledge, to gain information on the world she lives in, the way things tick, etcetera. Any random fact she gains she'll record. Sho has volumes upon volumes she's written of information she's gained throughout the years.
- Currently there's a rather important goal on her mind: Magic. Why can't she perform spells in other countries? She knows Pasaid was formed on land containing magic, but could that magic be carried to another country? If so, how?

Name: Fay McCallan
Age: 19
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Homeland: Cannaire
Current Residence: Reuben Port
Occupation: Paranormal Investigator
Relations: Jacob McCallan (father, deceased), Hikari McCallan (mother, deceased)
Biography: Fay from a young age had always been stronger and faster than other children and even some adults, because of this her father took it upon himself to teach her both martial arts and swordplay in his Combat Academy. Thanks to her strength and seemingly natural gift for combat word of her soon travelled and she became somewhat famous, her father would often hold exhibition matches where the taciturn Fay would compete against adults and win with surprising ease, it was during one of these exhibitions that her ability first activated distracting her in the match, for a few moments she was able to ‘see’ another plane of existence where she was able to perceive the auras of all those around her as a mixture of green and blue light, all apart from one man whose aura was a torrent of darkness.
Later that week her home was attacked and set ablaze and both her parents were killed and her left arm was severely burned, however the pain and abundant magical energy around her caused her abilities to fully awaken granting her sight onto the astral plane once more as well as ‘cancelling’ the magical flames around her, just before she passed out she saw the man shrouded in darkness again.
Eight years have passed since then and for the most part her powers have lain dormant as she didn’t want to appear different than any other human, however a few short months ago a series of mysterious murders started and she was assaulted by the murderer, a being comprised entirely of magical energy and thus no physical body to harm. Once again her powers activated through her scarred arm and she was able to ‘cancel’ the magic that comprised her assailant and survive, it was here that she met Nicolette Calder a magus that dealt with mysterious cases that involved magic or the supernatural, she took in Fay and explained to her what her abilities were.
She has since worked for Nico, performing the majority of the more hands on work.
Personality: A quiet girl she is extremely shy and doesn’t often approach others and when she does she comes across as rather severe and at times cold, this belies the fact that she is a naturally warm individual that will go out of her way to help others. She dislikes her height and large bust believing it makes her “uncute”.
Weaknesses: Repeated use of her abilities can leave her feeling drained and if she continues to use them after this she will experience physical pain and if she continues to use them even beyond this then her body will eventually shut down altogether, she also has a mental block on her aura powers that prevent her from unleashing them to her full pontential as long as her bandages cover her scarred arm. Because of her anti-magic aura she naturally resists all forms of magic even healing magic.
She is easily distracted by cute things and her mind will often wander into strange stories that she concocts regarding these cute things, in particular cats.
Abilities: Fay is what is known as a Canceller, a being born with an innate anti-magic aura about them as well as the ability to see into the astral plane. This means that she can ‘see’ what is only there spiritually such as an individual’s aura as well as magical energy or spirits, she is even able to perceive psychic energies such as the telekinetic arms that psychics use to perform telekinesis, as for her ability to Cancel she is able to channel her own aura which has the ability to break down magic and spiritual bodies into their base mana and thus ‘cancel’ them and even works on telekinetic arms and other abilities born of living things, this also means that wounds caused by her cannot be healed any other way than naturally. She is able to focus her aura onto her sword and use that as a tool in order to cancel with.
Training: She was trained in both hand-to-hand combat and swordplay from a young age by her father, a renowned martial artist and swordsman. She is now highly skilled in unarmed combat but it is with a blade that she is a true threat in particular as with her abilities activated she can kill even those that can’t be killed.
Offence: A skilled swordswoman, she is able to kill without killing intent making it hard to predict her attacks, strikes in quick arching slashes which are almost invisible to the naked eye. Without her sword she will attempt to grapple with the opponent, using her aura to prevent them from using magic to boost their strength or heal.
Defence: She is skilled enough to deflect even arrows with her blade and through the use of her aura can even cut through magical attacks; however she is more likely to avoid the attack all together in order to strike the opponent while they are open.
Clothing he/she normally wears: She is commonly seen wearing a black silk jacket with teal shoulders over a dark grey silk shirt and a pair of black silk trousers, the outfit is completed by black shoes and knee length black socks as well as occasionally a white ribbon to tie her hair back in a high ponytail. The silk has been specially treated to make it as durable as leather, normally this is done magically but due to her abilities this was not possible as of such it is not as durable as it could be. Her left hand up to just passed her elbow is wrapped in bandages, she removes or loosens these whenever she needs to use her aura abilities.
Eye colour: Dark blue
Hair colour: Midnight black, it reaches to her hips and is naturally very straight.
Body type: She is rather tall standing at just over six foot in height with an athletic yet curvaceous build.
Skin colour: She is a naturally rather pale individual giving her an almost snow white like complexion.
Face: She is a true beauty but also looks naturally rather severe, her face is slender with slightly pronounced cheekbones and a perfectly straight nose, her eyebrows are slender and arch naturally as though she were glaring and her lips are full.
Other: She has a collection of plush toys which she names and even gives back ground stories to. She is occaisonally refered to as Shinigami by Nico, roughly translated it means "Death God".

Username: Karen Siegel
Name: Colleen Moira Kavanaugh (Kah-leen Moy-rah Kaa-vuh-nah)
Age: 23, birthed August 1st
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Alignment: Lawful Good
Homeland: Athreigh, Pasaid
Current Residence: Abriene Castle, Athreigh, Pasaid
Occupation: She serves as a personal Adviser to the Princess Shoshanna, a demanding and frighteningly important job that involves training the princess to one day be queen of all of Pasaid. She enjoys her work, however, as she sees herself as Princess Sho's older sister and trusts the young royal's judgment and in her own ability to discern right and wrong.
Relations: She has two living parents, but no siblings.
Her father is Cae Cailan Kavanaugh, a detached and scholarly sort of man who, despite a lifelong dedication to study and philosophy, still deeply cares for and loves his wife and child. He works as a scribe under the royal family.
Her mother is Blair Uilla Kavanaugh, an openly loving and classically motherly woman whose immense heart takes in and cares for all. She works as a writing tutor in Abriene and Cliath, so she often travels for short periods to see to students in the neighboring port, but even absence from her family cannot dampen her indomitably loving spirit.
Biography: Colleen was born a child of love into a nurturing home in Cliath on the first of November. Her mother and father, barely a year married, cherished their daughter and did their best to provide everything for her as she grew. As a young child, Colleen spent most of her time with her father who was then unemployed and doing personal work on developing philosophy, so she modeled herself after his calm personality; becoming a shy, quiet little girl. While she was attending primary school, her father was summoned to work at the castle in Abriene to work as a scribe for the royalty, so the family moved into the castle town and Colleen was given a top rate education from then on by some of the best instructors in the land of Pasaid.
During her teenage years, her mother noticed that Colleen had an unusually excellent memory, so they investigated and found that, aside from basic magical abilities, Colleen was subconsciously improving her mental faculties to the point of developing an artificial photographic memory. With this discovery, Colleen, already an inquisitive if still quite shy young woman, dedicated her free-time to learning as much as she possibly could by reading books, studying maps and generally consuming every piece of written literature she could get her hands on. Her parents encouraged her lust for knowledge, and the librarians at the castle had her apprentice under them since her astounding retention of memories made her a natural scholar and record keeper.
It was during this time that she met and befriended the princess, Shoshanna, during some of the young royal's tutoring lessons that took place in the records hall. She helped the younger Princess Sho with some of her assignments and, though the two were divergent socially, the interaction sparked a sort of “elder sister” instinct within Colleen that had her watching over the princess whenever she could. As the years started to move on and Colleen gained a permanent scholar's position in the castle, she became more involved in the real-world politics and affairs that went on in the castle, and, when it became apparent that Princess Shoshanna would soon ascend to the throne, Colleen was chosen as an Adviser to the Princess, despite her age, due to her excellent rapport with Princess Shoshanna and her amazing, library-sized knowledge base. Though Colleen was nervous to accept such responsibility, she was innately an idealistic woman who couldn't help but be overjoyed at the chance to finally make use of her abilities to turn the country into a better place through watching and guiding the young woman who had become like a little sister to Colleen.
Personality: Colleen is calm, quiet and reticent; often speaking very little except to those she is close to personally. She has a firm grasp on morality that is a product of her strong upbringing under devoted parents, and she is, therefore, very much an idealist. She has a strong protective bend within her for the people she befriends and cares about and can sometimes come off as slightly patronizing since she enjoys doting on such people. Despite being confident in the choices she makes, she is a rather fragile creature when it comes to criticism. Since she can remember everything perfectly, she is unaccustomed to being wrong and reacts poorly when she is, though never publicly. This fear of rejection, however, does not stem from a lack of self-confidence but rather a heightened concern of the opinions of others. She loves herself without a doubt, but she knows she has a difficult time speaking casually and this makes her worried that she is failing other people in a way. It's her childish side showing, but she really wants to make others happy.
Weaknesses: Her astounding memory has made her become slightly mechanical in conversation and manner since she knows so much that it can overwhelm others and she has to try and act “normal.” Because of this failure to be like everyone else, she has poor experience with working in large groups and is fairly shy.
If she is ever engaged in melee combat, she is practically defenseless. She has no training in hand to hand fighting and does not have a strong enough control over offensive magics to make use of them. Colleen is solely an archer; and even then, she is untried in combat so her archery is more for practice than practicality.
Also, as a side note, she's a very poor chef; a flaw she hopes to one day remedy.
Abilities: Magically enhanced mental attributes manifest specifically as near perfect focus, control and memory. She is strong against all mental attacks and has a memory that has stores of knowledge from thousands of sources that will never fade from her mind. She is capable of basic magical defenses and some other minor, everyday spells that are common in Pasaid, but nothing else is even comparable to her mental prowess.
Training: Being required to take a sport during her schooling, Colleen tried several until she came to archery, an art that trains both the body and the mind, and took to it like a fish to water. Her natural magical abilities made her an excellent archer with her strong focus and control, so she has been training as an archer ever since.
Interestingly, she is also a fully trained librarian after her apprenticeship at Abriene Castle.
Offense: Archery is her best and only method of offense, and even then she practices it more as a sport and meditative art than as an art of war.
Defense: She is capable of a weak magic repulsion field, nothing more than what an average Pasaid resident could abjure, but her mental defenses are top notch. As poor as she is at combat and physical defense, her mental defense more than makes up for it against any attacks directed at the mind. This defense is magical in nature, however, so non-magical attacks like common hypnosis or fear tactics are effective as normal against a strong-willed person.
Picture: Coming Soon (once I have scanner access)
Clothing she normally wears: Colleen tends to wear classical scholar's robes with long sleeves and a lowered hood. She prefers white or black with a wide sash or tabard to show her position as Adviser to the Queen. When she is not wearing her robes, she wears light tunics and long skirts, usually in whites, greys and blues with soft cloth shoes and hosiery.
Eye color: Deep Royal Blue
Hair color: Pitch Black with a healthy sheen
Body type: Slim and fairly underdeveloped for a woman her age. She has well-toned arms, though, from archery practice.
Skin color: Quite Pale, but then she does spend her days inside studying all the time.
Face: Her face will one day, as she grows older, be angular and well-defined, but in her youth the high cheekbones and straight jawline of an elder beauty are smoothed to be quite cute, but not exceptionally attractive. She has cunning eyes and thin lips with slight brows and a small, round nose.
Other: If she ever gets in the sun, freckles appear on her cheeks and nose. Also, in private while she studies, she wears thin silver framed glasses with squared lenses.
Other information:
Anonimity: Being overly concerned with making others happy, but knowing she expresses herself poorly, Colleen has a childish habit of trying to do good deeds anonymously instead of confronting the individual she isn't familiar with. This doesn't apply with friends or family, though.
Goals: One day, Colleen would like to travel the world to study texts from every country, but she is deeply afraid of leaving Pasaid because, if she should lose her magical abilities, she fears she will lose all the knowledge she has so far gained.
She would also like to learn to cook one day as she is very very poor at it despite having memorized nearly twenty books on cooking methods and hundreds of recipe manuals.

Biography: Standing at only 6 inches tall, Rat was born into a colony of faeries guarding an ancient temple in Ahmeyed forest. One day, explorers came and tried to infiltrate the temple, and in the harsh battle between the humans and the faeries, the tip of Rat's wing got caught in a tree branch as he was trying to save his mother who, held captive by one of the humans. He ended up tearing his own wing off and blasted himself forward like a little fire bolt to save her. As a result of this he cannot fly, having only half of one of his wings. Eventually, the colony left him behind due to his disability. It was one day when Rubi and Coco stumbled upon the temple that they found him, nearly starved to death.
