Kendhl Pilkvist

[Kendhl Pilkvist]

Kendhl Pilkvist Race: Ghost (Previously sea otter Kelvic) Gender: Female. Birthday: Spring 76th, 508 AV Birthplace: Alvadas Age at Death: Five years! But I look twenty in human form. Date of Death: 89th of Summer, 513 AV Appearance: Kendhl has short hair, which she dyed herself. The ends on one side are red. It's always tousled, either by her own hands or the saltwater and ocean wind. Her smile is bright and her sharp canines show. She has pale skin and eyes, which remind one of a whirling storm when troubled. Her eyebrows are prominent in a feminine way that only enhances her attractiveness. She is about 5'3.5 (1.61m) and weighs roughly 116lbs(52.6kg). In her otter form, Kennie is about three feet from nose to tail tip. She's maybe half a foot at the shoulder on all fours, and has a cream-colored face and dark brown, almost black fur. She weighs roughly fifty pounds.   Character Concept Dead Kendhl is connected to the world of the living by two ways: Love and revenge. Her bondmate, Gale, was with her when she died and the strength of their bond kept her soul from disappearing into the reincarnation cycle, even though it dissolved when her life ended. The second reason is the one Kendhl is not aware of yet. The half-wolf Kelvic that killed her is still alive and roaming the Wildlands, and once she discovers that it's alive she will most likely stop at nothing until she finds and kills it. Living Kendhl is a free spirit. She loves the sea, and spends time with the Svefra as much as she can. There is rarely a moment you will see her not smiling or laughing, even if it's only in her eyes. She's playful almost to the point of being annoying, but she knows when to be serious. Kendhl is a sharp girl, but not very educated. She notices little things, like the change in the wind or the tides. The Kelvic doesn't hide her feelings, and is quite friendly. Her affections are never secret, and she'll tell someone if she's attracted to them. She could be described as clingy. One word to describe her? Blunt. She has a way of getting to people and staying in their thoughts long after they've ceased talking. Some may say it's her infectious happy-go-lucky attitude, and others might comment that she was simply too annoying to forget. Either way, they remember her. She can be slightly cocky and arrogant at times, and is a bit of a gambler. She's hopeless at it though. Her favorite games are guessing ones, and she bets a few silver Mizas that she'll win. Another aspect is that she's sometimes assumed to be vain due to her near-constant grooming, but she claims it's what otters do.   Character History Ken was one of the rarer happenings of a Kelvic giving birth to another Kelvic of its kind. Her mother was an otter Kelvic, as were her two brothers. They lived in separate rafts, of course, but always kept close. She liked spending time with her brothers, since they were the more rambunctious of their raft. She always favored the Svefra too, and swam alongside their boats for as long as she could. She's a very strong swimmer even in human form. And for how she got her name, her Svefra father named her. She doesn't remember much about him, except for wind-tangled hair, wild eyes and a laughing smile.   Fun Facts -Her happiness and bold attitude is just a mask. -She can't write anything except her name, which is a step above unreadable. -Doesn't care about status. -Fidgets when someone looks at her for too long. -Plays with her ear-ring when she gets bored or uncomfortable. -Her greatest fear is drowning. -Loves to listen to stories. -Stands with one leg supporting all of her weight and hands on one hip. -Prefers flight rather than fight. -Easily susceptible to panic when scared. -Inspects her nails and cleans them out when she lies. -Loves sleeping in. -Can't stand depressed people; She'll try to cheer them up. -Almost unbearably annoying to perpetually grumpy people. -Loves the color blue. -Puts on a smile when she gets angry. -Laughs at others' pain. -Low tolerance of alcohol. -Enjoys holding hands with people. -Looks people in the eyes when they're talking to her. -Short attention span. -Both hates and fears spiders. -Freaks out if something lands on her, like a lizard.   Nicknames -Bob (Gale McCenry) -Vagik (Wart)

Housing Location: Zeltiva House: Ken lives in a cave that she found after exploring the coastline of Mathews Bay. It has an underwater tunnel that only an otter of her stature can get through. She carried torches and wood through it and let it dry, and uses dried kelp and seaweed for kindling. Half of it is submerged at high tide, and the less-wet half she lives on. It's large enough to accomodate her human form, and she stores her clothing just outside of the cave high enough to avoid it getting wet at high tide too. At low tide, she's able to carry things through the tunnel without soaking them while in her otter form. Now being a ghost, Kendhl's possessions are difficult if not impossible to access, unless a strong swimmer or a fellow flying/swimming Kelvic goes to fetch them.
