Reyla Sithras

Reyla wrote:Name: Reyla Sithras
   Gender: Female
   Age: 24
   Birthday: 05/23
   Sexuality: Straight
   Special Characteristics: A tattoo of a single eye in the center of what looks like a normal Celtic knot pattern that seems to be made of thick vines on her back. On closer inspection the vines are actually slowly shifting thorned tentacles like one might expect to see on an octopus.

   Personality: Reyla's public face can be described in one word, confident. Perhaps even a little smug. Outside of battle she strives to be calm, collected, and to always appear as if she knows more than she's letting on, preferring to keep any conversational partners guessing as to what she may or may not be thinking. Internally however her mind is almost constantly at work, taking in every small detail that she can in an effort to back up the airs that she puts on. In truth she's not particularly fond of acting deferential to anyone, but she's not stupid. If someone is clearly her superior in one way or another then she will definitely show them the respect that they are due. At least she will until she surpasses them.

On the same note however, she doesn't particularly care for people addressing her with formalities she may have earned as she feels that the pomp and circumstance is just wasted breath that could be used more constructively, and she will make that very clear to anyone she winds up in charge of. How you say something doesn't matter nearly as much as what you have to say.

Reyla is fairly social and does enjoy spending time with others, at least whenever she's not already busy. She does tend to keep people at arms length however, preferring not to get emotionally invested in any one person, after all it's a lot harder to play verbal games with someone you really care about.

In combat Reyla is... scary. She likes to fight, to exert her power and dominate her opponents. She enjoys fighting so much in fact that she will sometimes actually sing in the middle of a fight, which is understandably unnerving to ally and enemy alike.

   Likes:
       

• Reading: Reading for fun is just that, fun. Plus sometimes it's nice to escape from the real world for a time.
               
  
• Fighting: Nothing gets the blood flowing quite like a good fight.
                   
  
• Singing: Reyla has a beautiful voice, and she likes to use it.
                   
  
• Research: The root cause of Reyla gaining her powers was her curiosity, and her experiences have not diminished her all consuming desire to understand at all.
                   
  
• Spicy food: It's a good burn.
                   
  
• Cephalopods: She thinks they're cute, and there's the thing with her magic...
                   
  
• Flowers: Also related to her magic, plus anything that can survive and bloom in spite of human meddling deserves some respect.
  

   Dislikes:

• Willful Ignorance: The gift of Sapience comes with the ability to learn and better yourself, deliberately wasting that makes you no better than the bugs who never question their queens.
               
  
• Useless Platitudes: They waste time and try her patience.
  
  
• People demanding respect when they can't back up their claims: If you can't prove you deserve respect, then don't expect it. Period.
                   
  
• Willful prevention of education: The idea of deliberately preventing people from gaining knowledge, especially when it's to stay in power, is disgusting.
                   
  
• Bland food: The world is full of good food, don't waste your time on anything sub par.
     
  

             
   Motivations: (What motivates your character in life?) 3 minimum, bullet point them individually, with at least one sentence to describe them.

• To learn all she can: Reyla's driving motivation is a need to learn, discover, and understand, and woe betide any who decide to get in her way.
  
  
• To master her gifts: Though they are now hers in their entirety, Reyla's powers of magic were gifted to her, and until she's surpassed even the one she gained them from she will not be content to call them her own.
  
  
• To make a real connection: Reyla may keep people at arms length, but that doesn't mean that she doesn't want friends or even a family, in fact that's something she yearns for greatly. Even if she'll never admit it to herself.
  

   
Fears:

• Death: Reyla is well aware that there is SOMETHING after death, in a world of magic like this one it's hard not to be, but she's not sure what she'd get, and not knowing terrifies her.
  
  
• The loss of her mental Faculties: The greatest gift that any being can have is the ability to think for themselves, and the thought of losing that, especially the idea of being incapacitated to the point she doesn't even know it, is horrifying. For this reason Reyla won't even drink alcohol for fear of temporarily losing her grip on her mind.
  
  
• Isolation: Just like she won't admit to herself that she desires real companionship Reyla doesn't want to acknowledge that one of the most torturous experiences she can imagine is to be isolated from everyone and to be left completely alone.
