Appearance

Ayosel is a Freshwater Iyvess with the appearance and traits of a copperbelly water snake**. As a serpent she is quite large; twenty-three feet long, thick around the length of her body, and heavy. Her scale colouration is a flat, dark grey bordering near on black fading into the unpatterned 'copper' orange colour of her underbelly, which is where the base species gets its name from.

In the hybrid Dhani form, Ayosel's mass is about eighteen feet long. Lithely built, agile, long-armed and fond of wicked fanged smiles, Ayosel cuts quite a stunning impression. Completely hairless, in this form it's very apparent that her eyes are a pale stormy grey with undertones of blues and greens glimmering deep within. The stark near-black of her scales and the boundary where it fades into the copper scales of her underside and skin is very apparent in this shape.

It's as a human-shaped woman that one is most likely to encounter Ayosel outside of the nest. Black hair, grey eyes, pale skinned. Tall for a woman, just about six feet in height, but slender and rather severe looking, though that shouldn't deter people from warming up to her smiles, which come genuine and bright. She's not a great beauty by any stretch of the world but she does embody a sort of intense energy, observing people like they are peerlessly interesting either as conversation -- or sometimes, she may laugh, as snacks.

There is a special mark in all three of her forms that help other freshwater Iyvess recognize Ayosel; in her serpentine shapes it seems to be a discolouring of her dorsal scales just beneath her jaw, decidedly darker against the copper tone of her belly and the dark shade of her back. In her human shape it's also under her jaw, near her left ear, and takes the form of a tattoo of a snake coiled around a raindrop.


History

Ayosel was raised by her mother alongside five other Freshwater Iyvess in the bowels of the Dhani nest in Falyndar. It was ever a tense situation; the Constrictors were elitist and played rough and the Iyvess were fighty little bastards. They managed to make it to adulthood through plying praise to the Queen of the nest and Siku, the latter of whom favoured the Constrictor breed.

It was a bloody, vicious upbringing. The Myrians held the Dhani under seige and the Iyvess were no different to them than the other snakes making their own forays into the wilderness. Underwater grottoes proved a viable way to pass in and out for the Iyvess within the caves and their ability to hold their breath as they swam, and furthermore, their eagerness and ability to swim naturally at all, made them fierce competition for hunting trips.

Only recently has Ayosel departed the nest, though she anticipates returns in the future to visit her nestmates and pay respect to the queens that kept her mother fed and loved during her stay.

Her eyes turned from the dense jungle of her home to the distant mountains in the north. Rumour among travelers on the road and sea were that there was a jewel at the highest peak of those mountains, a place where people lived to be close to the sky. Ayosel pointed herself towards Lhavit.

Concept

Ayosel is only marginally hostile to strangers. Her raising by the Constrictors taught her to be wary of bigger, more intimidating adversaries, and frequent encounters with Myrians painted their race as barbaric and unwelcome in the jungle. She is naturally at odds with Myrians, but not innately hostile. Her mother instilled some tolerance for others in her snakelings, a tolerance that Ayosel is willing to extend to people on an individual basis.

She likes to get a read on people, hoping to predetermine their intentions in the start of an interaction rather than get to the point where they make a request before she catches on to their motives. Ayosel was brought up thinking that favours owed were favours meant to be repaid immediately and that it was better to not have someone do you a favour to avoid being indefinitely indebted to them. The world is cruel and it will eat the charitable.

If Ayosel provides something to another, she doesn't want their gratitude. It feels rude to her to be thanked, like the gesture was expected of her and the recipient was following unspoken protocol without true feeling. For Ayosel, actions speak louder than words.


Religion

MAKUTSI : The Goddess of the Rain, the Typhoon, the Fresh Water Springs. Myrians offer prayer to Makutsi simply by racial default, but the Dhani revere their snake goddess moreso. Although Ayosel does pay homage to Siku, it is to Makutsi that her mother taught her true love. Makutsi harboured her people when the Dhani first turned them away from Falyndar and she taught them how to survive when separated from the sea. Her prayer is important. Makutsi is the Sister-Goddess of the Freshwater Iyvess.

ZULRAV : Zulrav is the storm, the untamed fury of a hurricane, and the howling winds uprooting trees and vegetation is a marvel to behold, albeit a dangerous one. Although the Iyvess owe part of their creation to Laviku, it is to Zulrav that Ayosel credits her survival away from the salt sea.

SIKU : The common goddess praised by the Dhani as a race is Siku, she who formed them with help from her mother as the legend goes. During her life in the nest, Ayosel was fed propaganda supporting her praise to the snake goddess, and it was praise she willingly offered. Although her devotion to Siku pales in comparison to Makutsi, Ayosel does offer some of her reverence for her.

Housing

As part of Ayosel's employment with the Red Lantern, she's purchased a room of her own to live in. It's a standard room with all the basic amenities; a bed, brazier, chair, table, and chest in which she stores her belongings.

Heirloom

Image A book gifted to Ayosel by her mother Masinikaniso It details a few applications of negative 'cursework' based more off of superstition than actual magic. In it are a few of Ikaniso's personal 'glyphs' for protecting things from negativity and a few interesting tidbits about plant based wards for general negativity. Even if one puts no value in the superstitions of an old world-weary Dhani, it's still an interesting read. There are about ten blank pages for the addition of Ayosel's own contributions.
