Natalya Age: 62 Gender: Female Species: Jiwe Rank: Rogue Appearance: Tall and slender at 6’2”, there is an indomitable sense of elegance and strength about this woman. Her body is one of simple curves, not so dramatic as to be considered a full hour-glass figure, nor excruciatingly flat, but rather somewhere in the middle and graceful nevertheless. Indeed, though not muscular, her limbs are quite well-defined and try as one might, there is not a hint of excess fat upon her body to be found. However, upon first glance and many of those afterwards, it is her unique skin that draws her apart. As typical of Jiwe, Natalya is made entirely of living stone. Her skin is of a pale grey akin to marble, one that that almost appears white when glimpsed in all but the brightest of sunshine. Under such intense light, her skin appears to sparkle ever so slightly, catching the rays with glassy luster. Contrary to legend, however, very few Jiwe are as hard as diamond, and as a marble-based specimen, Natalya’s skin is only a tad bit harder than the average human’s fingernail, just as it is slightly softer than copper wire. Upon this unique skin are a number of physical imperfections that, though are doomed never to heal, are hardly visible unless gazed upon at close range. Faint scratches that appear as only white streaks, are present along much of her body, though primarily her long-fingered hands, which come into contact with hard surfaces more often than the rest of her. Natalya’s greatest physical blemish is a single scar, a large, jagged fracture carved into her left shoulder just below her scapula. It is her face, however, that demands the greatest attention. Perfectly smooth, Natalya has never suffered an instant of acne and bears not a single wrinkle. Her face is as untouched as the stone of a statute and is not prone to expressing great emotion except for the smallest of quirks in her full yet dull-red lips. Instead it is her voice that provides the deepest insight into her thoughts and feelings, a deep, resounding, yet still feminine voice that dances as if in constant song. Of the more common traits to be expressed, her eyes—so often cold and unmoving—are a sharp grey that, in the right light, almost appear to be blue. Her hair, as soft as a human’s but without a single curl or wave, is merely a lighter shade of white-grey than her skin. Upon her arms and around her neck are streaks of permanent black ink, the only remnants of her one-time lover, Akrizon. (see spoiler for image) Spoiler: click to toggle Race Information: Jiwe, as the Swahili name indicates, are creatures made entirely of living stone. Unlike most living beings, Jiwe are incapable of reproduction, though they bear the physical appearance of male or female humans. Instead, Jiwe are born of the remains of certain shelled marine creatures known as Conque. These remains are deposited in great numbers on the ocean floor and often lithified into sedimentary rocks that are sometimes subducted into the earth’s lithosphere to become metamorphosized. In time, these metamorphic rocks will occasionally manage to be uplifted back to the surface of Inora in large chunks. Upon emergence, the large metamorphic rocks originally born of the Conque shells finally magically shift and break down to reveal the Jiwe’s permanent form and consciousness at last takes hold. Considering the immense amount of time it takes for these rock-people to properly form and the infrequency that their particular origin-stone will go through the necessary processes, Jiwe are not common creatures. However, whenever one is fortunate enough to be born, there are often a handful of others born alongside it. Siblings in a sense, they share the same mineral ratios and impurities, as well as the same luster, hardness, color, and streak (the last of which is apparent upon their skins from scrapes against harder surfaces). However, beyond these physical traits and a common inflexible personality, there is little that ties these people together, and so it is irregular that any Jiwe remain in contact with one another of their type. Notwithstanding the fact that they are intrinsically mystical creatures, Jiwe possess no magical or otherworldly physical skills themselvs. Despite having skin harder than most, their surfaces are not impervious and can be melted, scratched or fractured with harder surfaces, weathered and even eroded with excess water, or even blown apart with powerful enough explosives. As they are made of stone, their skin is typically room temperature, though it becomes much warmer under sunlight and is capable of retaining great heat or cold for quite some time. Though they contain such liquids as blood, it is incredibly rare to see a Jiwe bleed, for their skin is quite thick and their inner organs are similarly hard. Dragon Information Name: Quixoteth Color: Renascentiae Age: 40 Gender: Male Appearance: Fairly average sized, it is not Quixoteth’s stature that marks him as unique, but rather the ever-changing spectrum of colors that swirl within his faceted eyes. To gaze upon the kaleidoscope of every color known both in the physical world and without is often dizzying and yet almost peaceful. It is with these magnificent orbs that he peruses the world around him in a most sedate manner that often leaves him with the appearance of a stationary statue. In contrast, his hide is relatively plain, at least when the soft down feathers aren’t taken into account. His hide is colored a soft cream and decorated with a handful of scars and scratches that any dragon of his age is likely to attain, especially considering his countless battles against Thread and other dangers. Under the brightness of direct sunlight, however, a golden glow in the shape of a legendary phoenix becomes visible upon his back. With the usage of his power, however, this unique marking fades until his life-energy is recharged. As of now, the phoenix insignia appears to be little more than a faintly glowing smudge barely visible against the rest of his hide. Additionally, a soft mane dances along his dorsal, matching his tufted tail. His legs, unlike many, end in full five-fingered hands that allow him surprising dexterity. Pet Information Type: Kyalthra Name: Clytemnestra “Nessie” Color/Kind: Light (f) Age: Adult Appearance: In her natural form, Clytemnestra is hardly visible as only a sheen of iridescent dust particles. However, when she takes on her solid form of hovering orb, or really any form in particular, she appears to be several shades of palest pink, blue, yellow, green, orange, and violet all swirled together. Whenever she performs her healing abilities, Clytemnestra has a tendency to glow with a faint white light, one that grows stronger depending on the intensity of the injury. As of lately, Clytemnestra has been prone to sporting the appearance of a small firelizard, albeit with incredibly soft, sparkly-pastel fur that would likely be worth much were one capable of actually taking her hide.
