Age Appearance: 23
Personality: Nez struggles with a personal identity. Having spent almost her entire life under the control of another, she is much more inclined to be what people tell her to be than to be herself. But she is far from a shell to order around. Nez has incredible determination inside her. Once given a task, or created her own goal, Nez wonāt stop until sheās accomplished it. She expects no help from others, though isnāt stubborn enough to reject help when itās offered. In fact, Nez usually thinks everyone else could do things better than she could, and as a result, takes criticism and advice very seriously. This doesnāt stop her from trying, however.
As for socializationā¦ sheās working on it. Nez spent basically her entire life being silent, or only speaking when called upon, and doing her best to please others. Now that sheās free, she has trouble saying what she means, and talking about how she feels is even harder. Expressions, however, come much easier to her. She loves to smile and often does so without prompting, just for the sake of it. She also tends to cry about the strangest things, though never during a battle or when she needs to be strong.
What few people ever realize about Nez unless they get to know her, is her incredible curiosity for life. Nature, magic, people, everything fascinates her. She constantly is observing and questioning whatās in her world, and takes great pleasure in knowing something she didnāt before. She rarely voices her thoughts and questions though, as sheās been conditioned to believe such things are wrong.
Vocation: For now, just a runaway slave.
Race: Demon
Appearance:
Nezara is a rare breed of demon: a shapeshifter. She can change her appearance to totally match whatever she chooses, even height and muscle mass (though, itās for show only. Her capability wonāt change). Her original form is something few people have ever seen, as itās both strange and unusual looking. In her original form, she is neither a man nor a woman, and though the outline is there, her eyes have no color. Instead, she usually walks around in her preferred form, a human female with bright green eyes and brown hair that grows only to her shoulders. She usually chooses forms that are attractive, but not overly so, as she doesnāt want to draw attention to herself.
Height: Usually 5ā7ā
Weight: Usually 140lbs
Scars/Tattoos/Piercings: One tattoo on her right shoulder blade, a snake just about to strike. Itās always there no matter what form sheās in. Scars she can shift away, and piercings arenāt really sustainable.
History: Nezara has very little memories of a time when she wasnāt a slave. Considered very young for a demon, she knows almost nothing of what Alionya was before the takeover. The day of her birth was almost the day of her death, for when she was born it was immediately assumed she was a monster, a baby without a gender or coloring of any kind. It was only by the love and protection of her mother she managed to survive long enough for her power of shape shifting to come to fruition. By the time they were caught and enslaved, she had learned enough to hide it. But not for long.
Fear, pain, anger, any strong emotion was enough to shatter Nezās illusion. Her Master soon discovered her power, but instead of turning her over as he should have done, he saw her as a prize, a tool to gain power. She went through rigorous, daily training, becoming a near-perfect assassin by the time she reached adulthood. So she could not use her ability to escape, her Master had her tattooed, the only skin marking she canāt erase. Then, she began being sent out to do his bidding, killing off any who stood in his way in his quest for more wealth. Her mother died of sickness during this time, but she had no opportunity to mourn. For several years she was little more than a killing-machine.
Inside though, she hated it. She hated killing, and being owned, and knowing nothing but what she was told. Her negative feelings grew until finally, she realized she was either going to give up living, or escape. A twist of fate made her choose the latter, and after weeks of preparation, she was officially on the run. Such a prize wonāt be given up easily however, and sheās been running from her Masterās attempts at recapture ever since, no matter how far away she gets, as well as avoiding being caught as a magic user.
Equipment: Twin daggers accompany Nez wherever she goes, as well as a currently empty pouch and empty vials she can use to make poisons when she has the means.
