Full Name: Alaena Praetora Nae'Serrania. But for the sake of your tongue, they just call me Dominique Pierce.
Nicknames: Dom seems to be a common one. In my language, I'd be "Kaeta", or Huntress.
Codename: Blackwatch. Don't know why, never cared.
Age: Physically, 21 in human years. You really don't want to know how old I am.
Birthdate: April 14th. Practically picked it out of a hat.
Hometown: The city of Saragasso, on the planet of Emmeraia. One of the colonies.
Sexuality: Both. In my culture, their is not much discrimination between such relations between either gender.
Species: Homo Vampyres- Prometheans
That is our "Scientific" name. In physical shape and structure, we are supposedly close enough to Humans to be considered of the same Genus. The Species name supposedly comes from our canine teeth and carnivorous nature that bears resemblance to your mythological Vampires. In your languages, you call us Prometheans. In my language, we are Akavari.
Power(s): My powers would be considered to be divided into two categories; Unique and Species. The latter meaning that it is because I am Akavari that I have this ability.
-Shapeshifting (Unique)| One of the abilities that may be granted to "Specials", shapeshifting allows what the name implies. For me to change the physical aspects of my body. Simple things like building or removing muscle, changing my figure, eye and hair color, and the like are easy. Actually shifting form and skeletal structure, however, requires a great deal of practice and is at first quite painful. However, after enough time, one can overcome such pain.
-Mental Structure Unique| "Specials" have more advanced minds than even normal Akavari, and legions more advanced than a Human's. It makes us more difficult to manipulate and outsmart. More difficult to defeat. It also makes us far less susceptible to those who can affect or alter the mind's processes. Not because we have some strange immunity to it, but simply because they are most likely used to manipulating human minds that are, well, simpler than ours.
-Body Augmentation (Unique)| This power essentially allows me to control my own body, allowing for regrowth and densing of bone and such and even the complete halting of the aging process. Something of which I have nearly mastered, as I age very slowly now.
-Hunter's Sense (Unique)| In my clan, hunting is a profession. A skill we learn from a young age. We Akavari are built for it. However not many have taken up upon this. Because of the way I was raised, I am a natural hunter. You cannot hide from me. Increasing and focusing eyesight while using the Hunter's sense will cause a unique appearance distinguished only to my clan and race.
-Bloodlust (Species)| When used, the specimen in question will become more feral, the canines extending and their adrenaline beginning to pump. An Akavari can emit a loud roar and will often growl or snarl to fight off others. Using this power has been frequently regarded in the high society as feral and unbecoming of the superiority of our species. On Earth, however, the appearance and sounds of the Bloodlust appear to be incredibly frightening and will often scare off humans quickly.
-Molecular Regeneration (Species)| We have the ability to heal from wounds faster than a human but it does, however, require a larger deal of energy.
-Double Hearts Species| The same. Our bodies carry two hearts that allow our circulatory systems to pump blood faster and easier. It also means that we bleed a lot faster and are susceptible to bleeding out from very serious injuries.
-Strengthened Lungs Species| Allows us to carry more oxygen to the blood than a human. But it also makes it more dangerous for one to be punctured.
-Physique and Enhanced Athletics Species| Our muscles are much denser and stronger than a human, and often much more toned. We can run much farther and faster than most species, become stronger, and are very physically adept because of this. We have much more endurance than a human. We have far greater reflexes than one too. We are more flexible, more agile. We are far above humans.
-Advanced Senses Species| Our senses of hearing and eyesight are far, far greater than that of a human. This is because of our carnivorous and hunter nature. These senses can, naturally, be overwhelming and often times can be in a harming way.
-Canine Teeth Species| Our canine teeth are larger, sharper, and longer than a humans. My shapeshifting ability allows me to retract or reshape them as necessary.
-Intelligence Species| We naturally have unlocked a larger part of our brains than humans. Using too much of our minds at once can be damaging though. We can, and often are, much smarter than a human. It allows us to do things such as learn languages and preform problem solving faster and easier.
-Synesthesia Species| Our minds can identify things with colour in combination with our amazing eyesight. Even people. People or animals, using the Akavari sense of synesthesia, can have somewhat of an aura around them that is tinted with a colour. Synesthesia takes years upon years to master and I personally do not often use it. An Akavari's eyes will seem to glow a bright white when their Synesthesia is in effect.
Weaknesses:
-Lung Wounds | Because our lungs are incredible strong, our body often requires both to operate to its full potential. If our lungs are punctured, it is much more dangerous than it would be to a human.
-Mercury | The element of Mercury is a very foreign substance to us and our bodies. Mercury is to us what cyanide is to humans. What silver is to werewolves.
-Hydrogen Peroxide | Yes, this may sound strange, but Hydrogen Peroxide is like a potent acid to us. The percent does decide how potentially lethal it is. I don't quite know why we react to it like this but we do.
-Hunting | One of our greatest strengths is also one of our greatest weaknesses. At least, for my clan. We are drawn to hunt for food, drawn to kill. We may be a very advanced civilization but we are all animals at heart. It makes me extremely dangerous and often unstable.
Skills: I'm an amazing runner. Or parkourist. Or whatever you want to bring up that has to do with athletics. Oh! I can cook. Very, very well. And sing. That enough for you? No? Well, I can fight too. Not many fancy acrobatics. My teeth can make an exchange short and brutal, since I'm faster and stronger than most.
Likes: Hunting | Cooking | Singing | Athletics | Learning Languages | Practicing with her Synesthesia | Conning people out of money | Sparring | Practicing Shapeshifting |
Dislikes: Arrogance | Most other Aliens | Discriminatory Humans | Losing a fight | Being Wounded | Mercury | Being told that someone is smarter than me (Often because It's not true, thank you very much) |
Personality: Now this should be interesting. I suppose that you could say that expression on my planet isn't one of our strong suits. But, in a nutshell, I can be cynical, the optimist, intimidating, sexy, and downright bitchy. I can be fun. You know, if you don't try and burn me at the stake for being an alien. Honestly, I don't understand many of the customs of this planet. I mean, I do get the whole "dress like a slut and show alot of skin" deal. Yeah. We have that where I come from. All I can do is try and keep up with the culture here. It's honestly not that hard. While the ideals and such here are different, they are not difficult to understand.
History: While I was raised in Saragasso, I was born in a small suburb near the metropolis called Dracona. I was raised in a very unique way, due to my status as one of the Specials. Of course, they aren't called that in our language but it's the closest translation I could find. Our land is very much urbanized, but still with vast forests and even a few jungles. It is different now than it was when I was born. The jungles and such are far denser and the forests filled even more with wildlife to hunt. I was born many, many years ago. My powers allow for such a long life. I was brought to earth during an experiment of sorts. You see, our technology is centuries upon centuries upon centuries more advanced than yours. We were experimenting with a device. One that would allow us to travel through space easier. It didn't work out as planned. Well, it worked, seeing as I'm here, but not as planned. Think of it as transportation. One second I was there and then poof! The next I was here. A.N.G.E.L found me from the unnatural spike in magnetism or something. The rest, as they say, is history.
Other: Anything I want to add? Nope.
