Appearance

@Zeraphia (#85543)

She is long and slender without curves. She has a little more up top, and it slenders down to her tail flukes. If she were a human she would stand around 5’ 8. She has a medium to small bust. She is pretty slim, and there is no obvious excess weight to drag her down. Her hands aren’t chunky, but they are proportional to her size. Her arms are rather toned, and they are small and knotty if you feel them, however, she doesn’t really show any outward appearance of muscle gain. She has a dark gray blue dorsal fin that ends around her mid back and ends near her tail fin.

Her tail fin is horizontal and goes up and down like a dolphin or whale. It is small and rather pointed at the tips of the flukes. She has two pectoral fins further down past her waist. Her tail is a dark grayish blue on the top, and a silver on the bottom. On the sides, she has a golden color. Her tail flukes are a dark gray. She has light silver stripes down her sides. She has a nice short pixie cut that is a little longer and more spiky in the front. Her hair is sort of that salt and pepper hair color, except instead it is silver and dark blue gray. It has little waves in it, that stick out in multiple directions. However, she normally has to keep it in a cap or helmet, so that she can move faster, and it won’t cause any drag.

Her face is long and oval, and she has defined cheekbones and she has a small slightly raised nose. The bridge is medium high, and the slope isn't as steep as some. The tip of her nose is high and isn't spread out. Her nose is longer than average. She has vibrant eyes. Her eyes are mostly light icy blue, has dark blue gray, and she has medium length and thick eyelashes. She has silver colored soft arching eyebrows, which are shaped to be neat, but still appear natural. Her eyes are large and round, giving her an eerie vacant expression.

She has thin narrow lips, which are light pink. Her skin is rather light, and almost carries what in a human would be considered an unhealthy grayish tint. Her skin goes from the front to her waist, but on her back near the center around the dorsal fin, she has more scales. From her skin to her waist it melds gradually from skin to scales. She has three gill slots right underneath her chin on her neck. Instead of the normal human ears, she has larger pointed ones that are a silver color with scales.

@Hecate (#289381)

Personality

ISTJ-T

She's a seether. When she gets angry, many can see her tense and try not to snap. She has a lot of pent-up emotions, but she has been told that she can't let it loose because it's unprofessional. She's often around those that it would be a very big mistake to lose control. She has been trained to not let emotions affect her decisions. Normally, she tends to be aloof and reserved. She has been told that being too friendly is a distraction. She uses sarcasm as a barrier to her real emotions. She doesn't want people to know the full extent to what they do and says affects her. She is also lonely because she hasn't let anyone get close to her and she hasn't gotten close to anyone.

She seems harsh. She has high standards that she holds herself to and sometimes holds others unfairly. She is hard on herself when she fails. If she has a job at hand, she can put her disappointment to the side, but she will save it to beat herself later. She is a hard worker and willing to do whatever it takes to get it done. She is relationally awkward. She is average at communicating when it comes to making plans and executing them, but she doesn't know when to communicate, how to communicate, or what to communicate her feelings with friendships and other relationships. She prefers staying out of the spotlight.

She gives off a cocky confident exterior. Knowing that women are considered tougher, she feels the need to project that confidence to everyone she encounters. She can become detailed oriented, and she forgets to look for the big picture. She can be self-centered and concentrates on herself too much when she should be keeping an eye on her principal. She hates any form of failure, and witnesses are the worst. This fear of failure is a very large motivation in her life. She maintains a frosty impassive, cutting exterior.

She is very pragmatic, not allowing herself to dwell on what-ifs for too long. She doesn't think too far ahead, because it stresses her out dealing with only one thing at a time. She does try to plan ahead, but it normally doesn't work out. She is willing to do what is needed to be done. She pays very close attention to people, so she expects the same scrutiny in her direction, which makes her worried about how others view her. She works hard because she wants to have something to depend on. She is really smart and hard-working.

Even when she doesn't feel like it, she completes jobs, chores, etc. that she has been assigned. She often makes goals for herself and completes them. She has a really low tolerance for stupidity. She has a quick sharp tongue and she isn't afraid to use it. She does have self-control and doesn't criticize out loud half of the things she thinks. She has been working on her negative outlook on most things, feeling that she is spiraling helplessly out of control. She expects the best out of everyone and everything. She can be very critical and gets annoyed easily.

She's come to find others disappointing. She is very rigorous with her discipline and finds it astonishing that others do not hold themselves in the same regard. They often don't hold themselves to as rigorous a standard and are therefore less reliable. While she may appear very put together on the outside, often she has no idea what she is doing or where she is going next. She only has her routines to give her some continuity. She works too hard on containing herself and not showing any part of herself, that she doesn't have the time or energy for anything else.

She has seen a lot of things in her life. From a young age, she was trained by her family to fight and encouraged to do something with that, proving her mettle and worth and winning glory for the family name. While she can hide a lot of feelings, it doesn't change the fact that she has a lot of fears, or that her experiences have bothered her. Her face is actually quite expressive and not really impassive, however, she has trained herself to mask emotions such as fear with others such as annoyance, or to remain a blank sheet.

She would never tell anyone, but she quickly becomes attached to others. However, because of her personality and demeanor, she has chased everyone off, leaving her to either have a very small group of friends or her being alone. She's very insecure because her parents thought that tough love was the best training method. It did cause her to work much harder for their praise, but it made her think she was never adequate and filled her with despair that she could never meet their expectations.

Pandora desperately wants a connection with others but tests them making sure they won't run out on her. She can be quite cynical. Intrigue is not her forte. She much prefers to deal with things straightforwardly. She prefers to be honest, and blunt with each other. She doesn't really know how to stave off others from using her, so she has come to stop trying to fight. She can be easily manipulated.

Strengths (3 minimum)

She is a very fast swimmer. One of the fastest. She is very agile.

She is trained with weapons, and she has a natural talent with them.

She is very self-disciplined. She is good at operating and functioning even through her emotions and emergency moments. She is self-motivated.

Weaknesses (3 minimum)

She does not have the mind to deal with a lot of things, people, and politics at once. She does much better thinking linearly. She is not creative and does not make a lot of connections across unrelated topics. She is not artistic.

Fear

She has a lot of fears and knows that her position is uncertain. She does not know who to trust and what to do to go forward. However, it'll help her be cautious.

Lionfish

Undecided but Monarch Leaning

Appearance

Talon is EXTREMELY tall, and TALL. And like the rest of him, his lionfish half is toxic. Parts of his tail flash and glow, maybe eluding that there’s something more in him but his fish half is basically that of a lionfish; golden and vibrant. It’s striped with white and maybe a little bit of golden yellow hue that glows when he feels very exciting emotions, like fear or excitement. His frills are large and spiky, and due to their venomous tendencies, he’s taken routes to keep others around him safe to the best of his ability. He’ll wear drapes around his back the best he can, but he faces the fear of having to have his spines painfully removed. As compared to his brother and parents however, his venom isn’t nearly as potent (which he’s found to be a blessing on many occasions)

As for his human side, he has lighter fair skin, following more lanky arms covered in a few strange blue markings that, like his fish body, glow ever so slightly when he feels strong emotions. There isn’t even the smallest bit of strength or muscle on his body though. Talon has heterochromia with one dark, forest green eye and one light brown eye, almost a caramel color. His face is dotted with millions of freckles and there’s a scar under his left, brown eye from the accident, but nothing major. Talon has messy red hair that has grown long, sort of in a mane which he prides himself in. Most times it comes down to his neck, and in his hair are shells and twine, anything he can get his hands on really. His ears have piercings as well, like bones or shells. His nails are usually painted black but other times they’re different colors too. As for everything else, Talon usually dresses up fancy for his government work, and never really is seen without a shirt due to a scar on his chest he wishes to hide for the time being (relating to his heart condition).

Personality

Sarcastic | Outgoing | Flirtatious | Sneaky | Secretive | Persuasive |

Talon is a sarcastic pain in the butt, and a HUGE flirt at that. Maybe that’s how he deals with everything. Though, no matter WHY he does it, no one’s safe from a witty remark or a shot from Talon. Honestly, it gets annoying real fast. It’s like he throws himself at people. Oh right. He does. Worst part is, he’s not very smooth or charming. All he wants is validation. He never got any of that from his parents. Now, he’s left to search for that all by himself. Deep down, Talon feels like he NEEDS it. If people don’t like him… what’s he good for? Going into any situation, he’s over sarcastic, over happy, and just generally overcompensating every emotion to the max. You’d think after awhile, he’d feel exhausted, and boy is he… but he keeps going and going, whether or not his social battery is drained.

Besides that, he’s relaxed and put back for the most part, but extremely nosey into everyone’s business. There isn’t a secret around he doesn’t know about, or a rumor he hasn’t sniffed out. He’s known as the ‘newspaper’, knowing what a visitor had for breakfast three weeks ago! Maybe his constant need to be in everyone’s business proves to be useful at some points. Especially as a Noble and working in the government, it’s beneficial to know everyone’s secrets. Not only can he use them to his own good, but he can also sell them off to be more… lucrative. Afterall, he’d never dream of using his parents money for his personal drinking/partying habits.

Talon is in no way shape or form athletic and he’s not extremely academically intelligent either, but hey, he stayed a noble so far, didn’t he? He prides himself in being more street smart and getting into things he shouldn’t, like drinking in the middle of the week and missing his next few classes due to a nasty hangover. He’s done his best to learn the ropes, trying to leave his wild childhood behind. He doesn’t know if he’ll ever be the child his parents want; no, he KNOWS he won’t. But… he’ll try.

Deep down however, he’s scared. He’s about to step up in life, then what? He may already be an adult but… Talon really just wants to have as much fun as he can..

Strengths (3 minimum)

Intelligent - Talon may be a party animal, but he’s equally as smart as he is fun. He likes to party around, sure, but he knows a thing or two. Even if he’s not academically intelligent, and some terms he should know confuse him, he knows how to get to the basis of things pretty easily. Maybe it’s just common sense, and he does remember his brother’s teachings as well that work to his advantage.

Blackmail - Talon prides himself in his sneaky behavior, and even more in his persuasiveness. Being a Noble and participating in government has only taught him to be all the more cunning. He sells secrets and most people either fear him (not for his strength) or respect him. Who needs physical strength when you have blackmail on your side?

Party Animal - Even now, Talon is still a party animal. And even though everyone knows about it, no one can do anything about it (yet). He’s got blackmail on his side to cover that. So, while the Noble’s do their best to ignore it, the other classes know him as he wants them too: The fun guy… or… maybe the lost drunkard at the ripe age of 22.

Weaknesses (3 minimum)

Panic - Talon is NOT the best to handle stressful situations. Well, he’s actually pretty bad at it. He’s more of the guy to take a step back and allow someone else to take charge. He doesn’t like being the big guy in charge, even if he likes to be the party animal. He knows that in his line of work now, lives are on the line. On occasion, Talon has found himself to suffer from panic attacks, though they were mostly active after the death of his brother. Since, he’s managed to control it but… they’re unpredictable.

Weak - Talon is WEAK. The poor thing barely has an ounce of muscle on him. He blames the alcohol on it all, but he really can’t. He’s just a scampy guy. Besides, he has other strengths, they’re just not… physical is all. Though, he’s always found fascination in the farmers and workers, how strong they are. He tried to do such work himself at one point but… well, he doesn’t want anyone to know.

Heart Condition - Maybe the real reason Talon’s never tried to gain muscle is because it’s hard for him to do strenuous activities (doesn’t seem to keep him from drinking though). No one knows about the condition except Talon and a personal doctor. Not even his parents know. It’s more of a recent diagnosis, but a condition that has gotten worse throughout the years.

Backstory*

Talon always lived in his older brother’s shadow, and still does even though he’s dead. Deep down he knows his parents blamed him for the accident, and maybe they were right. His brother had been picking him up one stormy night when he was younger after getting drunk at a party. On the way back from the party, both of them were attacked by some shark… At least that’s all Talon could remember. The next thing he knows, he’s waking up back home, and his brother is gone, while all he’s left with is a few scrapes and bruises. Maybe it’s best that he doesn't remember anything about that night. His brother was smart and brilliant, and had so much promise. After his death, his parents became cold and Talon knew they paid a pretty penny to send him away, to get whatever education he could get and become a noble. He did his best to stay up to standard for them. Afterall, he was in debt to his parents, and in debt to his brother. He was building THEIR reputation… They never came to visit, and Talon usually never left his position. He decided it was best that way.
