Character Name: THE Hawa Qizzeke!
THE ESSENTIALS
Race: It's Complicated/Idreth
Gender: Girl
Guild: Sciomancers
City: Spinesreach
Order: None
THE LOOK

Eyes: 'Nuclear waste' green with mustard sclera.

Weaknesses: Tendency to be overly-familiar / doesn't understand the concept of personal space. Stubborn. Carefully guarded.
Attitude: Buoyant. Controlled insanity.
Morals: She's never met a person whose heart she didn't like (eating). She has a very strong set of internal rules that govern her behavior, but she probably seems utterly amoral and unconcerned with others from an outside standpoint. Would never lie outright, but she doesn't see trickery as lying so much as mental weakness on the part of the tricked person.

Commodity: Magewood.
Animal: Her friend Bob, the many.
Item owned: A grisly tarot deck sewn from torn flesh.
While ostensibly a tarot deck, this lump of meat is more of a pouch than a box, and the provenance of its three distinct scraps of flesh is dubious. One is smooth and bruise-purple, another has the color and texture of a scab, and the last is grey as a tombstone's slate - all three are sewn together as though by a chirurgeon's practiced hand. Seven sightless and unblinking eyes stare from the deck's surface. Each is a slightly different size and shape, and two of the eyes are set side-by-side in a single socket. A gash-like orifice opens, slick and inviting, at one end of the oblong deck, allowing cards to slip in and out as the deck's master desires.
Village/forest/region: Morgun. The trees talk!
Memory: Getting promised-to-be-betrothed to Hioma at Swara and Bulrok's wedding.
Song: An old Horkvali lullaby.

THE ESSENTIALS
Name: Escelika

Commodity: N/A

My first couple of Lesser fights were a rush of chaos and excitement. Also, kill stealing a bunch in those days when no one bothered to attack me! Spending time with people in Duiran and Enorian, like @Marin, @Jami, @Hawa, @Sekeres, @Flinn, @Aloli, @Benedicto a lot of others I'm not recalling right now (I'm sorry! I'm bad at names.).

MINDSET:
Goals: The supremacy of the Light. That cannot be overstated. Specifically, she believes that it is an absolute and objectively defined Good that will destroy Darkness and all it embodies. Every aspect of her life is governed by that belief and working to see it come to pass. How likely she is to see it come to pass is of no consequence to her.
Personal ambitions: Bring as many to the Light as possible.
Nemesis: None officially.
Rival: Again, none.
Best Friend: @Tenshyo
Idol: Nola
Best personal achievement: Being appointed as co-Order Head by Auresae.
Worst personal achievement: Defending Auresae's original decision to take away Trager and Aryanne's child.
Proudest moments: Staying Auresae's hand in relation to the above. Being granted Yeleni from Auresae's Essence. Being appointed as the Head of a guild advancement path; this was how she got her dragon squiggle. Adopting @Swara. Being chosen to write the Order sermon for Ethne.
Most shameful moment: Slept clear through the War of Night, and so was absent when her beloved Goddess sacrificed Herself.
Secret dream: She would like to build a house.
SUMMARY:
Why you should hate her: She will pounce on any opportunity to debate beliefs.
Why you should love her: You can count on her to help keep you straight. She does what she can to bring out the best in everyone around her. She is free with counsel and with rendering aid to those that ask her, provided that the latter does not conflict with her beliefs and morals. She loves teaching and will go out of her way to make sure she is understood.
Why you should fear her: If you should choose to put herself under her instruction, you will find her to be a demanding taskmistress. She is patient and expects no less of her students than what she expects of herself, but you should be absolutely sure before undertaking her regimen. That being said, she's very much a Mama Bear, with the were-form to match, so bringing harm to someone she cares about is done at your peril.
Why she is harmless: She places a high value on group support, forging relationships into her self-image. Take that away, and you pull the rug out from under her. She'll stand up again, of course, but that's the easiest and most lasting way to throw her off. Needless to say, she goes to great lengths not to be made harmless, especially since it's happened to her twice now.
If she ruled the world, you'd best expect: No Undeath, and the means to attain it made useless.
If you were to describe her in one sentence: Still very strict, but passionate and kind with a broad streak of mischievousness.

But there are a few select people who he is submissive towards. Taking pleasure from the act aside, Sry likes to get in bare-knuckle brawls regularly, because taking a punch makes him feel clear headed.

God/Goddess: Sry has been in Lleis', Severn's, Chakrasul's orders. Severn definitely his/my favorite. Still have a perm'd armband from Chak's order that Sry still wears to this day. I'm hoping one day someone will notice and try to come try and collect it off of him.

THE ESSENTIALS

Guild/House: Shamans.
City: Enorian.
Congregation:Order: The Chromatic Court of Omei.THE LOOK
Hair: Your classic "spiky bangs and ponytail" combo, but she shaved her head and left just the fun stuff in front and back.Eyes: One a normal, pretty golden color, the other a spooky, mysterious black ball of glass.
Height: Just shy of two meters.
Build: Jacked to all hell. Abs you could grate cheese off of, and thick ol' thunder thighs. Best butt in Sapience. Yeah, as a guy too.
Defining Features: Spiraling horns, expressive, elongated ears with furry tufts at the ends, a super long lion tail.

PERSONALITY
Strengths: Piety, obedience, a terminal case of "been there, done that," the uncanny ability to answer complex questions in as few words as possible.Weaknesses: A way-too-long laundry list of player- and God-inflicted traumas. Most relevant to today's Aetolia: a badly damaged memory; issues with obsession and escapism; the constant need for a keeper or minder to stay out of trouble; scintilily powder abuse. Super afraid of thunder and lightning.
Attitude: Actually pretty personable, though first you must penetrate a deliberately taciturn and unpleasant shell. Is really, truly happy for the first time in her entire 200+ year life, and doesn't exactly know how to process it - so she can come off as very socially awkward.
Morals: This one sucks. Just pretend I said something poignant about how you shouldn't kill children or something. She hates slavery, like a lot, let's go with "no slaves."
Pet Peeves: Peppy, bubbly, noisy people; young people who haven't struggled much (rather, her inability to relate to them); being told to wear clothes if she doesn't feel like it.
Best way to piss her off: Attempt to psychoanalyze her, or otherwise get into her head.

PERSONALITY
Strengths: Tenacious, generous with its affection once earned, All Or Nothing
Weaknesses: Pretty haughty/sneering, two-faced (and sees that as a benefit), egotistical, manipulative, loves a good righteous indignation
Attitude: Kind of snooty, definitely self-indulgent, not impolite but definitely prone to laying the duplicity & airs of civility on thick. To the point where even it isn't sure whether it's genuine or not. It kind of thinks everyone is doing this, because that's how things were on the islands. And yet...painstakingly honest if approached straightforward? Can be kind of dour. Wears its heart on its sleeve.
Morals: Little to none. Definitely a creation of Chakrasul, whether or not it follows Her. If an action or a word serves greater knowledge or power, it's worth it. If a person doesn't, and isn't even fun to antagonize, it's worthless (which can still be fun to play with--waste not, want not).
Pet Peeves: When the other person isn't a Nazetu
Best way to piss me off: Contradict it. Deny it something it wants. It loves playing games, and yet it gets pretty pissy when it's outmaneuvered.
