Athaera

[Athaera]

Athaera Appearance Gender: Female Race:Human, Vantha Age: 15 Birthday: 37, Spring, 500 Birthplace: Syliras Appearance: Athaera's hair is sloppily cut short, and seldom brushed. The fringe in front will often get in her eyes, leading to her brushing it out of the way every few minutes. It's grown to be a habit, and Athaera will distractedly lift her hand to brush it out when she has nothing better to do, even if it's not actually in her eyes. The Vantha stands at five feet and four inches, but never got into the habit of standing up straight, so appears an inch or two shorter. If she's trying to make a good first impression, she'll stand with her shoulders back, but the moment her mind wanders, Athaera will forget and slouch again. She has the signature color-changing eyes of any Vantha, with red representing boiling anger, and a glowing green representing joy. Blue signifies sorrow, and fear or nervousness is shown with a bright yellow. Excitement is displayed by a deep purple, and grey when Athaera is lacking any form of strong emotion. Athaera will usually wear a dark blue cloak, the hood intended to make her go unnoticed. Other than that, her clothes are generically white. Character Concept Athaera is quite solitary, and doesn't talk much. She enjoys being alone, and despises large crowds and chatterboxes. She tends to avoid conversation, her preferred language a series of grunts and mumbles. Athaera is short-tempered, and is often angered because her eyes give her away. But behind her mask of intimidation and hostility, there's a concealed person who's more compassionate than usually expected. It's hard to strip away the hostility, as Athaera feels intimidation is the way to go. Character History Athaera's mother, a Vantha, left her family after a brutal fight with them (Typical Rebellious Teenager) and went to Syliras, of which she had heard many good things. She met Athaera's father, who already had a daughter from a previous marriage. He was a hunter, so he taught Athaera his trade. Athaera's mother, on the other hand, wanted to disconnect herself completely from her Vantha background. But she sold carvings and Athaera begged to learn the trade. Still, Athaera doesn't know Vani. Her mother died of a miscarriage when Athaera was five, and her father committed suicide from sorrow. Five years later, when she was ten, her sister died of pneumonia. Filled with sorrow, Athaera left her home because it brought back too many memories.
