No, no, no, I find it incredibly fascinating. There's no need to fret. I'm glad someone else has it in mind, since there's this whole serpent-based race that I'm making in the Magical Creature Index I'm creating for the group, led by a serpent king of myth and legend, who goes by the name of Calleo, the Tyrant King.

Well, that's good then! I guess her backstory makes extra sense in the world, I was concerned that she would be turned down because it was an all-human world.

Emori Lexi Brekker

_____________________NickName__________________
Emori never really got nicknames, she never had anyone close enough to her to give her a nickname. However she had been called Moray, as in moray eel, once or twice but whether that was said in good nature or not it the question.
_____________________Age_____________________
23, though she looks significantly younger thanks to the tests and malnutrition which hindered her ability to grow like she should.
_____________________Gender____________________
Female
_____________________Side___________________
Emori hasn’t really picked a side, she doesn’t like sides or getting involved with the war. Though she a much more against the king then the rebellion.
_____________________Rank_____________________
Now Emori does bits and pieces of everything really she just needs to keep her hands busy. She’s not the official apprentice of anyone but can pop her head in most places, bakeries, art shops and more and get a little bit of work for a few hours and then can leave and do work elsewhere. Beside with her…. Sickness it provides it hard for her to commit to a job cause she keeps having to leave for hours or even weeks on end. But she tries and when not in pain or hinder by her sickness she’s perfectly fine to work, in fact she loves hard work it stops her mind wandering to other things.

_____________________Hair/eyes___________________

Emori is surprisingly well kept for a girl like her. She’s not so much pretty as she is innocent. She had chestnut brown hair that falls down to about the top of her shoulder blades. Normally it’s done up in a messy ponytail, tied their with a piece of blue cloth, while she works. However her hair is still known to get grease in it or sometimes even singed slightly at the ends if she’s not careful enough when messing with flames. Her eyes are of a similar colour, a soft chocolate brown that despite her past always seem to hold a smile. A general softness that helps when tenting to patients. She often doesn’t do more then take a splinter from a girls finger but for a young girl that’s terrifying have a piece of wood stuck in your flesh. So Emoris calm nature, soft voice and genuinely caring eyes help. Her moods can change, sometimes a serious weight fall on her shoulders changing her whole demeanor but that’s often not around people so she doesn’t get questioned. When she genuinely laughs her eyes crinkle in the corners though laughing isn’t a thing she she normal does. She may seem cheerful though there's a difference between reassuring smile and genuinely laughing.
_____________________Body/clothing________________

This is were Emori gets weird. Cause of the things she suffered in the lab Emoris physical self has gone through some hard stuff. In simple words Emori is snow white pale so much so it’s almost unnatural. Therefore she burns way to easy only has to be in the sun for under half an hour before she turns into a lobster. Her height also suffer largely from the years of tests so she now stands at 59 inches ((1.4986 meters)) Which along with her snow what skin makes her look very odd. Now Emori has been on the streets of town long enough that people are used to her looks. They have stopped staring at her but new visitors or young children still look at her in puzzlement. Emori is used to the looks knowing they could be so much worse if they knew what happens to her. As for her clothes Emori keeps strangely tidy. She has a few outfits that she wears depending what she’s doing. Any dirty jobs she keep with a more tattered pair of clothes yet when doing other things she likes to keep clean. As her more tidy outfit she wears long tattered dusty brown pants with a lighter brown singlet and a white, normally grey, top she wears over top or ties around her waist when it’s to hot. On her feet is just a plain pair of worn shoes or just bear feet is she can’t be bothered tying laces. She has a old warm fabric satchel that she carries a few things in like basic medical supplies or other trinkets. The only weird thing about her clothing is the strip of reasonably thick leather strip wrapped around her left wrist. She had poked many many holes in it that she had put many many random trinkets and pendants in. Every time she finds a cute pendant, whether it be a scrap of metal from the blacksmith of something she made out of boredom, she adds it to her ‘bracelet.’ It’s one of her few possessions and she always keeps it on in fear of losing it.

Example of outfit just minus the knife.





_____________________Other Markings_______________

Other then her odd sickness, Emori has a few scars form her time in the labs. There are only small, like the small circle in the inside of her arm, opposite her elbow, and the inside of her wrist where a needle was constantly poked. She also has a small one right behind her right ear from one of the tests.
However her biggest one cuts right down her back. It’s small and thin but travels the length of her back starting at the base of her neck and ending at her tailbone. Of course no one see this but it’s there, another painful reminder of the life she left behind and was trying to forget.

_____________________Sickness___________________
This is an inhuman sickness. Something she got for her years as a lab rat under the king and his merciless alchemist. Every once and awhile, when she can never predict, for an hour up to a week everything she touches leaves behind blood. Everything she touches with her hands and feet leave little bloody handprints and footprints behind. She can’t cry cause all that comes out is blood. This doesn’t deplete her of blood, it’s a weird mutation of the body, something Emori can barely understand even after being the alchemist's lab rat for so long. All she knows are the symptoms telling her to hide before the real nightmare comes. She gets really dizzy, the word spinning and tilting at unnatural angles so she can barely stand. Pain stabs through her head and her whole body aches. Her nails slowly start go red showing the blood is coming. This is something Emori is really self conscious about her and every time she had a little episode, as she calls them she, locks herself away. This often ends with her basically killing herself by not eating or drinking being she doesn’t want to come out until it's over. Once it is over she sneaks out at night and washes in the closest body of water before returning and acting like nothing happened. She doesn’t want people to see her like this cause she doesn’t know how they would react. They could not let her work, they could be scared of her or they could even hang her for being different. This scares Emori, more than she lets on. But then again no one knows cause she refuses to tell anyone.

_____________________Personality_________________

Emori is surprisingly sweet girl despite everything. You would think someone like her would have a heart of ice and stone and be all moody but not Emori. She quite the cheerful girl, often being able to overlook the pains of her past. Now because of her talent to learn so quickly Emori built a name for herself. Now after working hard for many years Emori is decently well known by most businesses and their common customers. Being Emori comes and goes from jobs quite often, normally picking up loose ends and doing small jobs just to keep her hands busy. Occasionally she helps with bigger jobs but often she’s not trusted enough being no one really knows the extent of her ability. Normally she hangs around the blacksmith or the medic shops, those being her favorite places to work. However she is content wherever as long as it keeps her hands busy and her mind of the darker matters. Being Emoris good with injured people, keeping a smile on their face and making things seem not so bad. However she can also retreat silently to the corner and sharpen a sword or mix a tonic or plant some trees and flowers. So Emori is both outgoing and also silent being able to burn all day before needing some down time before she burns up all her energy and then her mind takes over. Even just picking up a book and reading, let her mind wander to an fictional word instead of focusing on the real one.

I won't call it an act but Emori definitely has more hidden under everything then she lets on. She’s different and she knows it. People have started to get used to her but there are still looks of disdain or confusion pasted around. She’s small, she’s like a ghost and she disappears randomly only to reappear with nothing seeming to change. People think she’s weird and she knows it. So Emori is very self conscious, she hates being in the spotlight, hates being looked at, hates getting large amounts of praise she would rather just hide in the corner and be left alone. However her calm and careful hands and soft voice are all still needed so she uses her talents but prefers to hand it to the credit on to others after the job is done. She often shuts down when any talk of her past is mentioned and not so discreetly changes the subject so people get the point it’s a sore subject. She also does have her days were she just…. Doesn’t. She just doesn’t feel like being social, doesn’t feel like doing anything but sleep. Those a rear and far between but sometimes, even if she seems cheerful, she needs to break down and cry.

Xwft | 204 comments _____________________History____________________

Emori never knew her parents. In fact at a very young age she was sold off. Whether it because she was unwanted or because her mother couldn’t look after her, Emori prefers to believe the latter, she was sold off to the king and ultimately ending in the alchemists clutches. If her mum knew what she was selling her daughter to or if she thought that maybe her child would have a good life with the king, once again Emori prefers to believe the latter, she became a subject to the alchemists screams and experiments all with the kings permission. Of course she was too young to understand really what was going on until she got older. But this was her life. She was basically raised with the king and alchemist as her parents. In a weird way she was treated like royalty, she was a prised experiment after all. She was allowed books from the royal library and was allowed to place food requests. As she grew up she go used to it, she knew no different. She was brought up with constant tests, constantly being drugged or cut open or being made to eat this drink this. Physically she suffered. Her body never really growing thanks to the constant truma it was put under and she always looked tired and broken. Mentally thought she was fine, she didn’t care. In fact she was partly brainwashed to think it was a great honor, to think she was surviving her country and doing it proud. That was until they made a mistake. She saw other kids, saw how the were treated. And then they screwed up an experiment.

Once the royal kids were born she was kept more isolated. Now Emori noticed this was happening but again she considered it normal. She thought she was normal until a prince visited one day when she was about 15, she lost track of the years very quickly. Well more like snuck down after the alchemist and saw her. It was only a very quick meeting of their eyes but that was enough for Emoir. She saw how perfectly he was. How tall how healthy he was compared to her. He quickly left never to return but it was enough to spark the hint of rebellion in Emori. From there she did little acts of rebellion, not drinking this or eating this. Not answering the alchemists or kings questions and refusing to do things quietly. The two men she saw as her father had betrayed her, they were slowly poisoning her body while preserving her mind until the last possible second and from there it would be too late to go back .

It was one time when Emori refused to drink something, thinking it would be no big deal, when things went bad. Whatever it was she was meant to drink clearly held something that would negate the effect of the other thing they were doing. What it was Emori had no idea but it clearly hadn’t gone right judging by the cries of annoyance. And that’s when Emori got her sickness. That’s how she managed to touch things and leave bloody handprints. And that’s also when she became useless to them. So, using her blood sickness as an excuse to get out her tight cage, Emori ran. It took days of plotting. She had to steal a key to get out, find an escape route to get past the guards and get out of the alchemists clutches in general. But she did it. A few hours of sneaking and being incredibly quiet Emori was out on the streets. It would be lying tosay part of her didn’t miss the king and the alchemist. She had viewed them as her second parents and once again she was alone. Now she realised what she had been missing, and realised outside wasn’t the dream she thought it would be. No one welcomed her and she had nowhere to hide when her little…. Episodes came and no one wanted a bleeding young looking weak girl. However Emori was determined, she had gone through a nightmare with the king and she wasn’t about to let her free life turn out like that. She was free, she deserved to be happy.


She had to hide, change her name and keep a downlow for ages after escaping cause, no surprises, the king wanted her back. Of course he didn’t want his little labrat getting lose to spread the world. However Emori hid and never said a word. Cause speaking would mean admitting to her unnatural problem and no one wanted that. She would be hung for being a witch or something if people knew. So Emori hid and made a new life picking up odd jobs for people. She would go into hiding every time a episode presented itself and would come back just as happy as ever. She lived on the streets for awhile, hiding in the woods when a episode came, but with all her odd jobs she was quickly able to afford her own little flat. For once her life started looking up. She was successful and all these odd jobs worked into bigger jobs and kept her hands more then busy. The king never found her and she could almost forget her past life. Until now.


_____________________Strengths___________________
Learning new things- Even since she was young and under the Alchemists control Emori had a thing for learning. She loved reading anything she got her hands on even if she wasn’t meant to. And now it’s paid off and she as a very quick memory and can learn things within a day no matter how hard.

Keeping herself busy- Cause of her quick learning there is never a dull moment for Emori. She throws herself head long into any job and she will get it done, even if it takes many sleepless nights, then she will move on to the next.

_____________________Weakness__________________

Overworking- Emori enjoys work to much. It keeps her mind off the ghosts of her past but sometimes she pushes herself to far. She can often be found with a project or book clutched in hand while sleeping cause eventually her body got sick of being pushed so far and made her sleep. It’s not good for her heath and she knows it but it’s a habit she can’t stop.

Self conscious- Emoir hates being in the spotlight, hates being looked at or judged. She is always well covered showing little skin and often hiding in the corner and pushing credit onto others.

Unable to fight- Give her any weapon and Emori will have no idea how to use it. She never learned to fight and never really wants to. But that leaves her extremely vulnerable.
_____________________Likes_____________________

Bright colours- It’s better than dark glum colours

Making others happy- She hates credit but there nothing better than seeing someone happily walking away with something Emori made or with a injury she healed.

Doodling- In the moments of down times she gets Emori doodles. Even if it’s charcoal and her own skin she can often be found mindlessly drawing often without her knowing she’s doing it. Her hand just works on its own pouring all that’s in her brain onto paper.

Food!-. It tates nice, looks nice and it fun to make

Basil- Best herb if you ask her

Animals- Her healing humans also extends to patching up injured animals. They are so cute and she sometimes just walks into the woods and feed the animals.

Cider- She’s not a alcoholic but let a girl have her drinks every once and awhile

Scarves- A little collecting habit of her but there are so many different types and so many different things you can do with them

Small children- They are cute and there nothing better then making on happy again.

Books- The most enjoyed past time of hers. It’s a fantasy world she gets lost in compared then getting lost in the pain of her past.

Rain- It’s so peaceful to watch and hear. And even running around outside is fun and a slightly childish tendency of hers.
_____________________Dislikes____________________

Blood- It’s not that she is squamish, no Emori has seen much blood on her life but… The smell, the feel, the sight, the taste of it all just…. Making her sick. She can fix open wounds and keep a clear head but it doesn’t mean she like it

Bugs- Yes they are living things and yes the deserve to live but NOT RIGHT NEXT TO HER!

Bells- They are loud and annoying and bring back some painful memories of tests she once endured.

Coriander- The worst hurb if you ask her, she will avoid anything with coriander in it.

Seals- She has a irrational fear of them. Seriously they have eyes of murders and teeth that would happily tear you apart.

Cheese Graters- Anytime she ues one, she grates her fingers and least twice.

Large amounts of attention- She’s extremely self conscious. She’s also terrified if word got to the wrong person…..
_____________________Fears_____________________

Her sickness- She hides her fear just as well as she hides her sickness but... She’s scared of what people would think, what they would do if she was found out, scared of why it’s happening and it cripples her for hours to weeks and it’s painful.

Being found- Just cause she built a new life doesn’t mean she isn’t a escapee from the king and his alchemist. She had no idea if they are still looking for her but she’s terrified of what they might do if they found her. So much so that she goes out her way to avoid the guard patrols on the off chance on would recnoise her.

oliver balcom-23
heterosexual



Smiley face

oliver is a tan male, with almond shaped eyes. he has fluffy black hair that never seems to be styled the same way. overall, to the people around him his appearance is very disheveled. oliver often wears a goofy smile. he isn´t the type of person to stand out in the crowd. oliver is content with this. on the contrary, oliver's voice stands out the most. it is smooth, and almost always calm. he is a great singer, and his voice can create a haunting melody.

boring. that's how oliver has always perceived himself. despite this, oliver is a prankster and clown at heart, who really needs to learn when the right time to make a joke is. he's very laid back and at the moment, oliver is neutral when it comes to the false king, etc. he doesn't like to force his emotions on others, and rarely vents to people about how he feels. instead, he pours said emotion into his music. he talks to a lot of people, but considers most of them acquaintances. he has very few friends but he cherishes them greatly and considers them to be closer to family than his parents. oliver can get the attention of many when singing, and it's not simply because of his voice. his abilities plays a role into this but he's not sure what it is exactly. when singing, people will come from far and wide to listen, as if they were being lured to him. (like a siren?)

oliver was as the sole son of his family. due to this there was a lot of pressure put on him by his parents. his two older sisters were there for him most of the time, unlike his mother and father. he was expected to follow in his father's footsteps, and fight for the false king. oliver on the other hand wanted to be an entertainer or scholar. his parents weren't happy with this. throughout his childhood they'd berate him and put plenty of stress on him. he was thankful to move out when he was older, but his home was a terrible atmosphere to be in. oliver knew a few people at the time, but really only had one close friend. he understood oliver, and tried to help him in any way he could. he really only wanted oliver to thrive. when his parents caught word of this friend of oliver's, they refused to let oliver see or talk to him. his parents wanted to make his life a living hell until he would accept their wishes. when he moved out, oliver blossomed and was finally able to entertain people with his music.
