NAME: Lus GENDER: Agender STATUS: Free NICKNAMES: The Friend RACE: Kelpie AGE: appears around 30 BODYTYPE: ectomorph HEIGHT: 5'4'' WEIGHT: 120 COMPLEXION: ink black HAIR: black, appears wet-- frequently is wet EYES: a deep purple HANDEDNESS: ambidexterous SCARS: -- RELATIONSHIPSTATUS: -- PERSONALITY: [WIP] Lus' personality is mercurial. Mood swings characterize them. They can either be the life of the party or wreck your shit. With traits like disdain for authority and impulsiveness, Lus can come across as a young spirit at times. At others, solemn and concentrated, they seem older. They're also capable of playing at predator or prey, given their mood. Lus is business-minded and has extraordinary work ethic-- but is shockingly bad with money. Their room is littered with soft throw blankets, jewelry, decorative candles, broken time pieces, dead and dying plants, and more clothes than anyone could possibly wear. LIKES: crowds, fish, plants, spiders, snakes, dancing, singing, drinking, soft fabrics, rich foods and drinks, swimming, attention DISLIKES:restraint of any variety, patience, reading, boredom, most sweest, being told what to do |
Take note: Shape shifting is common among kelpies. Lus is capable of changing their appearance (though the shifting tends to span between human and equine). This ability is amplified around water, especially fresh water (but being on an island does not hurt). Beyond intentionally shifting, Lus is almost always passively shifting. This is to say, that anyone who looks at Lus will see them as something slightly different. This is based upon what is attractive to each individual. This can range from sexual, romantic, or platonic attraction-- and can even go so far as what a predator may find attractive in prey. This type of ambient shifting is an involuntary trait of the kelpie that, in the wild, was used to attract prey to its pond/river/lake. Examples of this may include: your character may see Lus as more feminine, more masculine, or androgynous. They may see them as older or younger, with sharper or softer features. It can shift the tone of Lus' voice, their posture, the amount of eye contact maintained. It is at the player's discretion how they see Lus. Think of it as a soft-focus camera effect-- it won't change their physical actions or what they say-- but the devil is in the details... In addition to shapeshifting, Lus hair (both head and tail) has peculiar properties-- it always appears wet. It doesn't drip, even after having been in water, nor does it leave a trail of moisture in its path. The hair itself is rumored to be a strong poison, medicine, and intoxicant-- rumors abound. |
