Name: Tally
Race: Elf
Age: 243 (about 20 in human years)
Gender: Female
Appearance:
http://ximperfections.deviantart.com/art/Elf-105100030Personality: Tally, being young, is naturally stubborn and somewhat emotional (in a word, angsty). Intelligent and quietly observent, she often finds a way of slipping past one's radar, learning things that she never wanted to know. It doesn't help that her most distinctive elf feature, her ears, are unnaturally large, giving her a very acute sense of hearing. Due to her insecurity about her ears, this has caused her to be somewhat withdrawn from others, more introverted. But, like most young females, once you get her talking, she can't stop.
Weapons: Besides her own magic, a small sword made of dragon steel.
[EDIT] Transportation: Since Tally doesn't own a ship, her method of getting around is a small wave-runner type vehicle. This allows her to jet quickly from planets to ships and back again. When traveling, she also wears an oxygen mask, cleverly designed to look more like a motorcycle helmet. [Also an EDIT] When Tally's on her home planet, she gets around on a hoverboard.
Strengths: Besides her ears, her small frame helps her speed, making her an almost ridiculously fast runner. Her only weapon, her sword, is the only weapon she's ever used, and after using it for so long, the sword has absorbed some of her magic, and lends to better and stronger hits.
Weaknesses: Tally is a poor fighter without her sword handy, and although her body is built for speed, it's not very strong. Also, Tally has a tendency to be sympathetic to the wrong people, and her inexperience shows at the wrong times.
Loyalty: Tally is born into Elven Loyalty, and has no choice but to be drawn to her own people. However, anyone is capable of earning her trust.
Bio: Tally's father was one of the founders of the Shining Alliance, and was unfortunately killed in a mysterious battle with a troll. I say mysterious, because there was no explanation of why her father was fighting a troll, and there was no evidence to suggest that the event ever took place. Rumors started to spread, and it was suggested that Tally's father had damning information about the Shining Alliance, and was killed because of it. Since then, Tally's been secretly investigating the Shining Alliance, determined to know who killed her father and why.
[EDIT]Hoverboard: Exactly what it sounds like. Essentially a surfboard that floats. Lean forward to increase speed, lean back to slow down. Turn your body to turn the board. Riders have to wear belly sensors, grippy riding shoes, and crash bracelets. Belly sensors help with balancing your weight onto the board, making it easier to manuever. Grippy shoes are so you don't fall off. If you do fall off, and you're a certain distance from the ground, the crash bracelets catch you by your wrists using magnets built into your board. The crash bracelets only kick in when you're high enough to seriously injure yourself.
