Trade/Occupation: Warrior

Appearance

General Appearance: Alexis is quite attractive like most women from Greece, but she isn't someone that would fall for vanity. Alexis has a square shaped face from birth. She has beautiful brown long flowing hair, that she usually keeps it up in a bun for special reasons. She has long dark eyelashes that protects her gray eyes that occasionally changes color, depending on her mood. Her soft pink lips are thick and full. Her skin is fair, and smooth to the touch. She has four tattoos. Two on her back, one on her lower stomach, and one on her wrist. Each tattoo held a special meaning to it, and time.

Alexis has a thin body, that is covered with strong hard muscles. Throughout her whole entire life, her body was always in fit from her training, and fighting. Her height is about 5’7”, and she weights about 125lbs. She dresses in long cloaks that cover her entire body completely. She usually has a hood over her head, to hide her appearance. She wears boots, and armor under her cloak to make her look more manly.
Weapons: Alexis carries two long twin blades on her back for protection, and for battle. She also carries small draggers, and knives just in case her swords fail her.
Items/Personal Belongings/Ownings: Alexis carries water, food, money, and medical equipment. She also carries a necklace around her neck that use to belong to her older brother.

Personality

General Personality: Alexis has a strong personality, though she is quiet. The reason why she is quiet when she is around a lot of people, is because she doesn’t want anyone to find out that she is really a woman instead of a man. You can say she is mysterious by the way she behaves and does her job. She stays pretty clam under any pressure she is in, and she never backs down from a fight. She had never fallen in love with anyone so she doesn’t know how to react in romantic situations nor does she have any experience at all in love, though she does enjoy listening to love stories and what not.

She is slightly ill tempered when it comes to not getting what she wants, or losing in a fight. She is kind of a sore loser. Despite her being quite around people she does not know, she is very out going and adventurous with her family, or with people she knows personally. She enjoys spending time with her family, and being herself for once. She loves to play small pranks on people she dislikes, and she also knows how to hold her liquor.

When she is not hiding her real appearance, she becomes shy around men and tries to avoid them. She doesn't think much about her body because she thinks she doesn't have a feminine body, when she really does, its just bares more muscles because she is a spartan woman. She feels embarrassed whenever people look at her when she reveals her true self, but she only reveals her true self when someone finds out that she is really a she. She also has a sharp tongue, and wouldn't think twice about telling anyone off that gets on her nerves.
Hobbies: She enjoys swimming, reading and writing novels. She also sometimes enjoys baby sitting family friends kids whenever she is in her home time. She also enjoys sparring too.
Quirks: Sometimes Alexis bites her lower lip when she gets nervous, and she also taps her fingers on a table whenever she becomes impatient.

Fighting

Favourite Weapon: Like I said before she carries her twin blades everywhere she goes and thats most like her favorite weapons.
Weapon Skills: She is skilled at throwing daggers, and knives....Pretty much she is skilled with anything that is sharp and she can hold in her hand.
Strengths in Fighting: From a very young age she was taught to fight by her parents being a spartan and to protect herself whenever she needed protection in case no one is around. She knows how to fight hand-to-hand combat extremely well or close range attacks.
Weaknesses in Fighting: Alexis is terrible against out range attacks, in fact she can't even aim with a bow and arrow without dropping the bow. Also, sometimes when she is fighting (and winning) she begins to get self centered and to confident, leaving openings on her body for attack.
Special Abilities: She is quick on her feet, and she is a strategist.

Background

Alexis was born on August 15 in the city on Sparta on a warm afternoon into a family of three. She had only one sibling, her older brother, Androcles who was only five years older than her. Androcles and Alexis got along extremely well, and when it was time for Androcles to go on the survival travel, Alexis cried for three days straight. After three years, Alexis missed her brother but decided to stop crying and better herself for a temporary replacement for her brother. She was taught many fighting techniques by her father and only got five minutes break when she did train. When her brother did return, her brother was strong, famous warrior. Alexis looked up to him and favored him from everyone else.

Alexis was very popular with the boys and girls in the town, because she was very active and laughed a lot, not to mention extremely beautiful. She remember when she was seven, she was playing hide and seek, and she got lost somewhere in the city and couldn’t find a way back to her house, so she stayed in an alley with her chin tuck between her knees crying, till she heard some of her friends calling her name. She poked her head out of the alley seeing her friends, and she immediately got up and ran to them crying and they simply laughed at her and teased her all the way home.

Alexis was a happy child now that her family was complete at the dining table. When she turned fifteen, she was already a strong fighter and managed to surpass her aging father, but she was never able strong as her brother, so she trained with him. Though the sparred, she knew her brother was holding back so she tried to give it her all one day, and managed to scar his chest. She cried that day when she saw his blood, but he simply laughed and hugged her. Why did he laugh?

A week later Sparta was going to war and her brother was told to participate in it for his country and so he did, but before he left he gave Alexis his necklace that he always wore ever since they were young. The moment Androcles left, she never saw him again. Tears streamed down her face when the army came back and her brother did not return. She cried and cried in her parent’s arms, as they did also. That day, she made an oath. An oath to become a better warrior as her brother, to achieve the things he couldn’t achieve.

When Alexis turned eighteen she said goodbye to her parents and went traveling to better herself, and get money for the work she does. Because she didn’t want to be judged that she couldn’t fight because she is a woman, she dressed herself in men clothing and hid her face with a hood. She learned to drink as a man on the road with other men, because they called her gay because she wouldn’t accept alcohol, and because she didn’t want to be called gay she began to drink alcohol, and with that first sip, she loved it…Till the next morning came.

Alexis managed to get many jobs as a guard, or being a personal assassin though she didn’t quite enjoy killing people as much as protecting people. Alexis was never a rich person but she did have some money for food, and shelter. She had no problem for finding a place to sleep at because she always somehow convinces people to let her stay for the night.

Occasionally she would visit her family in Sparta to bring back the money she had earned and give it to them, before setting off again. But when Alexis turned twenty, she felt like she needed to be home as soon as possible, and when she did return her mother had died of an illness that had spread around in the city. Unknown to what illness had caused it, Alexis began reading books over medicine and what not. She stay in Sparta for about four months, making sure that her father was okay before setting off once again.

The reason she set off again was because her father wanted her to, and that she had many things to learn before becoming a great warrior like her brother or her father when he was young, so she left in search for strength and knowledge.

Erik slowly tied his long sliver flowing hair in a loose ponytail as he stared at himself in his mirror. Despite his cold expression, he was very attractive. His light blue eyes had a darker ring around the iris then normal ones, his skin was flawless and smooth. His pinkish lips appeared so soft, and kissable. Erik was indeed a catch for women and men. Though he has many fans at his job, he always ignored them. Today was suppose to be his day off, but he have to meet up with a business partner for a small meeting at some café. Sighing he turned off the lights of his room, and left his apartment.

Erik had a thin figure, but not to thin it was scary, it was just perfect for him. What he wore was normal clothing to him. He wore some black jeans, and a white blouse that was loose on his arms. His long hair flowed within the wind as he walked down the street from his apartment. Appearance wise, he was everyone’s dream, personality wise…he was not. So many things have happened to him over the years, it was frightening. The times then they weren’t frightening were the times he spent with his past lover. He enjoyed those times, he enjoyed his touches, his kisses, and his voice. He missed him. He missed…Ashbel. He remembered those sweet nights, their pantings, the sounds, the pain, the pleasure…everything. But just thinking of those nights ached him so very much.

His eyes tightened as he forced himself to forget, though his heart was still in pain, and the throbbing pain in his groin continued. He forced himself to think about work, and they immediately made everything go away, but still his heart felt a bit troubled. His black shoes made small sounds as they hit the pavement every time they touched the pavement. He looked up from his thoughts to his surrounding, noticing that they were more people in town today then he thought. He was starting to feel a little uncomfortable being around so many people. Not only he noticed the couples that were making out, he also noticed few people staring at him. Erik never understood why people stared at him. Was he really that attractive? Erik didn’t think so, but its more like he didn’t care. He had to reason to make himself look better than he already was, even if he had a girlfriend.

To kept from being asked out constantly, Erik decided to agree to one female who asked him out just to shut everyone else up. But just because he had a girlfriend did not mean that he liked her. She was nice, but she just wasn’t his type. She was just way to noisy Her name was Ayame Smith. Usually she would call every day like today, but today he didn’t feel like talking to her because she would only talk about the stuff she likes, and girl stuff. The last thing Erik remembered was, was that he wasn’t a female. He didn’t care, and it annoyed him. She also suddenly became a bitch to everyone else when he accepted her request. Erik is beginning to regret going out with her. But its strange, when Erik decides to break up with her, she ends up crying and hugging him, saying that she didn’t mean to, and blah, blah ,blah and then they end up having sex. But the thing is, sometimes Erik forgets that he is having sex with Ayame, and thinks about Ashbel, and ends up calling his name. It was a curse, and he hated Ashbel for making him like this. Why couldn’t Erik just forget about him?

Feeling his cell phone vibrate, he pulled it out of his pocket and looked at who was calling. Romeo Marks, his business partner.

”Hello?” Erik answered the phone.

”Hey Erik. It’s me Romeo. Sorry! Ima be late, something came up. I’ll be at the café in an hour or two, I’m so sorry!” Erik heard, anger flashed through his eyes but his expression was the same.

”Its alright, if its something important, take care if it.” Erik replied back to him, and hanged up. Sighing he pushed his cell phone back in his pocket, and shoved it in his jeans as he stuck his hands back in his pockets. It irritated Erik that he has to wait, but whatever…Erik doesn’t have anything else to do, except wait. He had always waited, ever since he was young. He waited patiently for his mother and father to return from their month business trip. He waited on Ashbel to return home, he has always waited either he worried or not. To Erik, he viewed that no one ever waited for him. He looked around the street he was on, and noticed the small café he was suppose to meet up with Romeo at. Coffee sounded good right about now.

As he walked across the street, he ignored the glances he was given, and the small whispers between friends as he opened the café door and entered it. His hands were cold, so when he opened the door he shoved them back in his pockets. It was strange, because it was hot outside, but Erik was freezing…Ever since that day at the shrine. But it was a good thing that he learned the ability to hide his expressions, because if he didn’t he would be shivering like crazy and people would start asking him questions, or his boss would tell him to go home. He smiled at the waitresses and waiters whenever they recognized his presence.


Erik went to a booth that was near the front for him to look outside the window to keep a good eye out for Romeo if he ever does come. His took one hand out of his pocket and began tapping his fingers against the table. He looked over at a waiter who was staring at him, and Erik simply smile and nodded, telling him that he wanted assistants. When the waiter came Erik simply said, ”Coffee please. And that was it. He got his coffee quick to. Nice service. The waiter gave Erik some milk and sugar too.

Erik poured some milk in his coffee, and then poured a lot of sugar in it. Erik loved sugar, and always thought of candy whenever he was bored, but strangely he isn’t fat. He didn’t notice anyone in the café that watched him pour the sugar in the small cup of coffee, till he turned and looked at everything with a slight glare. But the moment he did turn, he saw him which made him drop his spoon on the table. Hearing the sound of the spoon dropping on the table, made him look away and began to mix his drink up with his shaky hands. He was shaking? When he noticed his hands trembling he gripped the coffee cup tightly in his hand and drank the coffee completely. Ashbel. Why is he here? Erik scooted closer to the window, to avoid watching him from the corner of his eye. He felt angry, scared, and relieved. His heart was racing, and it pained him. Ashbel has changed. He had grown older, but he was still hot, and Erik could notice it was him from a distance away. Why didn’t Erik notice him when he stepped in the café?

Erik shook his head, he refuse to change his behavior or emotions, just because he saw him. Did Ashbel really leave that much of an affect on Erik? He refuse to let Ashbel get to him, despite the fact he wanted to walk over to him and yell at him for leaving him, and stuff! Sighing deeply, Erik regained his previous expression, and relaxed himself. He will not let Ashbel get to him, and that’s final.

Hey Cindy, welcome to AG ^_^.

That was a nice profile, I do have a few concerns. The first of all is that sometimes your grammar use is a bit funky. I'm never big on grammar, but you use your tenses wrongly quite often. And sometimes you miss a letter to, so that it says 'he' instead of 'she'. So if you could please read over your applications closely and change those mistakes, that would be awesome. It would make reading it a lot easier, not only for me, but for everyone else too.

My next thing is more of a warning, and that is when I read your character's appearance/personality, I get a bit of a mary-sue'ish feeling. She is quiet, yet strong and out-going, she doesn't like her appearance, yet she is very beautiful. I just want to warn you to stay away from describing your own character as beautiful in RP. As beauty is more a matter of opinion then a fact.

But I'm going to accept you anyway, I think if you keep working on this character, you could get some nice plotting posibilities with her ^_^. Just don't forget to read over your app and change the spelling/grammar mistakes.

Welcome and if you have any questions, feel free to pm me!

Thanks for your advice. I'll be keeping your words in mind when I do RP, and I will be improving (and correcting) her profile as time goes by. Thank you for accepting my character!
