Asen

Postby Asen on December 4th, 2014, 4:02 am



Appearance

Race: Mixed blood (Freshwater Iyvess Dhani-human)
Gender: Female
Age: 57 years of age
Birthday: 14th of Summer, 458 AV
Birthplace: Riverfall

Appearance: At five foot ten and under one hundred and thirty pounds, Asen simply doesn't have the aura of intimidation a fighter should; she's too lively for that. Her hair is close-cropped on the sides and bursts into life at the top of her head. The shock of blonde curls explode in every direction and are interwoven with lighter strands -- though recently her hair has been turning brown. Her wide eyes are inherited from her father, a crystalline blue bordered by dark lashes and neat eyebrows arching above.

At times she is mistaken for a boy due to her unfeminine build; while she doesn't necessarily mind those mishaps, they are also not wholly pleasant. Simultaneously, however, she doesn't make an effort to appear more feminine. Makeup simply isn't her thing, though she does wonder what she would look like with kohl'd eyes.

Caught between young and old, her own personal halfbreed curse, Asen shows signs of aging: Crow's feet jut out from the corners of her eyes and grey hairs, often mistaking for platinum blonde, appear every so often. Her joints creak, especially on cold mornings. Despite her mostly youthful appearance, Asen is not immune to the pain of being old.

As of the 29th of Spring, 515 AV, Asen has a tattoo covering her entire right arm (a sleeve).

Character Concept

Asen is a rather cocky young woman, with a stubborn streak that could equal her mother's. She's very blunt in her speech and this could be either good or bad, depending on her situation. While being vulnerable to insults, she uses these to improve herself.

Asen has a tendency to forget about titles, referring to authority by last name as though it were a challenge. This could potentially get her into plenty of trouble if she spoke to the wrong person.

Contrary to most Dhani half-breeds, Asen's father -- Sessaschenanesskira -- stuck around. They had a fairly strong bond, and her father loved her mother enough to even marry her and get Cheva marks. While he took care of her and adored his only child, he was also disappointed in her bellicose attitude. For years he'd look down at her while she turned her gaze to the ground, and her father would wipe blood from a small cut or crouch to look at a bruise. After many of these instances he began to teach her that intimidation was a much better tactic.

Asen's mother played an equally important role in her life. She taught her to cook simple meals, mend clothes. Asen's mother also introduced her to another god: Laviku. The half-Dhani worships both Laviku and Siku, the latter her father's god despite what most Iyvess are like.

She has little to no problem with nudity, so long as she is somewhat familiar with those around her while she is naked. Her opinion on Kelvics, however, is more or less negative. She finds their way of shifting into different forms strange and unnatural, and sees them only as breeders.

Character History

Asen was the child of a loving couple in Riverfall; unfortunately, this same couple was a Dhani and a human. They were met with plenty of harsh words and scorn once Asen was born. Her father had named her after her grandmother (and to an extent, her great-grandmother), Skanissasensessaschena, instead of allowing her mother to give her a human name.

This, naturally, led to some interesting developments. Asen got into plenty of arguments and fist fights when she was a child up until her teen years, which is when she began to learn that appearances matter, and looking intimidating would do wonders for her. Since she inherited the snake-like face (mostly cheekbones) from her father, she could narrow her eyes -- the ones she got from her mother -- and turn up her coat collar to enhance her scariness.

Unfortunately this didn't work as well as she and her father had hoped, and Asen still fought with other teens. Eventually her parents had enough and shipped her off to Syliras with an aunt to learn a lesson.

When they got there Asen refused to leave their apartment for weeks. Her aunt had to drag the lanky girl out onto the streets and force her to walk around to keep the teen from expiring.

The half-Dhani realized she wanted to become a squire when her aunt had come home one day and spoke of the knights, telling stories and described the few she had actually seen training. That had gotten her out of the apartment rather quickly, searching for a way to sign up.

Hidden History :
When Asen was in her late forties, she became pregnant with twins. However, the children were both stillborn and Asen was rendered sterile. She is now uncomfortable around pregnant women and children, especially heavily pregnant women and small children.

Sessaschenanesskira is Asen's father, who resides in Riverfall as a fisherman. While some would expect him to leave Asen's mother shortly after she found out she was pregnant, the opposite happened. They were married, and Sessaschenanesskira stayed with his wife until she died in the fall of 514 AV of old age. He remains in the city until he cannot do so any longer.

Weapon: Shortspear 39 XP 39/100 Competent


Additional Info: Marissa was marked by Ionu at an early age, impressing both the deity and her parents. From then she continued testing her abilities with the gnosis, finding all sorts of time combinations and sensations to extract information from her marks, whether she was set onto them or not. If she wanted to know something, she would utilize her gnosis.

When her family moved to Syliras she found that it was not wise to use her gnosis so blatantly. It made people... uncomfortable, to say the least, to find that their reality had been altered. She joined the Knighthood, proving to be a fast learner and an attentive pupil. She was assigned a squire at the tender age of twenty-one, though the two failed to get along properly and the squire was transferred.

One might say it's her ever-shifting personality that prevented her from being a successful tutor. Another might offer up that it is her brashness, though she is a coin with two very different sides -- though a better comparison would be a die. She appears plain, but the sheer complexity of her being definitely turns the tables on those who are not prepared for it.
