Description

Name: Alanna Damodred
Age: 27
Race: Human
Significant Relations: Bodyguard and cousin to Min and Alyssia Damodred, close friend of Dannyl Jeanson.

Physical Description: Alanna is a strikingly beautiful woman, but she does nothing to advertise this fact. Her long and flowing blonde hair is not styled, simply left to hang naturally about her upper back, often tangled or unkempt after a fight; her bright sky blue eyes are most often concealed behind a pair of dark shades that she sports over her tanned features, and her lips seldom bear anything more than a simple lip-gloss to promote their plump and kissable nature (note that Alanna would sooner punch you than kiss you, in most cases, so perhaps this is a good thing). She has a slim and well proportioned figure, but wears only black suits with kevlar beneath, completely obscuring her body, and understating her beyond belief - but this is all something that Alanna doesn't really give a damn about. Her job is to shoot the bad guys, and if that job is made easier by sacrificing her 'ogling' value, then ogling be damned.

Personality: Alanna is a somewhat snarky and sarcastic individual, enjoying taking bites and stabs at people outside of her circle of association when the moment arises. She is extremely intolerant of incompetence and idiocy, and is quick to show anyone who falls short of her expectations the more personal side of her boot. That being said, when on duty, Alanna is as harsh and brutal as the job requires, often entirely emotionally detached from who/what she is shooting.

Skills and Talents:

• Trained and practised in the use of most firearms.
• Physically fit and strong, with high endurance.
• Trained in hand-to-hand combat, both unarmed and with bladed and blunt weapons (i.e. sword, knife, quarterstaff)
• Very impressive reflexes.

Abilities:
Elemental Manipulation: Traditionally, an Everian mage can only master a single element, and maintain a low level of ability with the others. The same is true for Alanna, and her chosen element is Water. Using this power Alanna can draw on the moisture from the air around her and form it into deadly spikes of ice, forceful torrents of water, or nigh on impenetrable bubbles for protection - amongst other Water based abilities. Alanna cannot manipulate the water inside another living being, as the skin forms a barrier to magic, though were she to place her hand on an open wound of significant proportions, she could.
Pure Arcane: Everian magic also enables the user to manipulate mana in its purest form, described by some particular individuals as 'purple', while others refer to it rather more properly as 'arcane' energy. This allows the wielder to control these fluctuating energies, forming forcefields, pure energy blasts, and the like - though requiring less energy from the mage, as the mana does not need to be focused, arcane attacks and defences tend to be weaker than more refined abilities.

Weapons:

• 9mm pistol
• Assault rifle
• Shotgun
• Retractable steel quarterstaff
• Rod of Eclipse: This artifact was named for its dark heart, the enchantment on it capable of absorbing all energy that touches it and the immediate area around it. As such, it is always surrounded by a small aura of pitch blackness, and can only be wielded in a gloved hand - as it absorbs light and heat energy.
• Amulet of Minds: This amulet prevents anything from directly affecting the mind of the bearer.
• Absorb Crystal: Similar to the Rod of Eclipse, this crystal absorbs energy, with the difference that it does it only at will, and can redirect that energy anywhere, in any form, including power for magic. Often carried into battle with full charge, and used to avoid the depletion of the mage's power.
