"IVLEN"

➳age; 23
➳gender; non-binary (they/them)
➳sexuality; pansexual
➳crush; N/A
➳race; human
➳role; travelling mercenary (other character)

➳hair; white
➳eyes; blue
➳height; 5'4"
➳weight; 127lbs

➳abilities / powers;
SPEED — Quick and nimble on their feet, Ivlen is a fast traveler and evasive on the battlefield.
LIGHT MANIPULATION — Ivlen is proficient in light magic: they can manipulate existing light, and (to an extent)
create light in the case that it is needed. Although they tend to prefer to use this magic in passive ways,
it can also be used to blind and/or burn opponents.
HEALING — Ivlen can use magic to heal moderate to minor wounds, as well as alleviate symptoms of sickness,
poison, etc. In dire cases, they can also stem feelings of hunger, thirst, and tiredness, although this is temporary
and therefore risky.
➳weapons;
POLEARM/STAFF — A dual staff-slash-polearm. Has a sharp, silver-coated blade at its tip which
can also be used to cast magic.

➳personality;
Ivlen is certainly fond of keeping to themselves, no matter the situation. Their lack of willingness to share just
about anything about their personal life as well as their elusive nature as a whole sometimes renders them a suspicious
figure, but they don't seem to care all too much about this—ironically enough, they're very carefree as a whole. They prefer
not to stick to one place nor person, instead preferring to be constantly on the move. All of this makes them quite the
enigmatic figure.
Despite this, one thing that rings true about Ivlen is their altruism. As a mercenary, they fight to make a living, so of
course they do things at a price—although there are not many requests during their time as an active merc that they've
outright denied. They have a soft spot for families in need and are willing to break their distant persona for the sake of
comfort, especially in the face of a child.
After each kill, they make sure whichever beast they've slain is blessed, no matter how evil the foe.

➳history;
A native of Wheyr Shor, Ivlen has longed to see the sights of Zetha since they were a young child...this goal
of theirs seeming both closer and farther than ever upon the sudden, mysterious death of both of their parents. Although
fond of their home region and an admirer of its blue seas and warm weather, this incident has left them with a
permanent disconnect to the area. After growing up in the care of a shop owner as their single parent, it was clear that
when Ivlen hit their teens, there was little to nothing left to hold them down. They left home at age sixteen, and
although their father is always happy when they come to visit, everyone agrees that something about Ivlen has changed—
permanently—despite their calm and kind demeanor.

➳other;
— Ivlen is actually a warlock, having made a pact with an otherworldly entity upon the death of their
parents! They keep this a close-guarded secret, and thus also do not see them fit to properly join a hero's party
despite how proficient they may seem.
— This is nothing about the character, but I'm a Discord native and I don't think I've RP'd on a forum since I was a really
little kid lmaoooo.........hope I'm doing this all right!!

accepted!

also i just wanted to say if anyone wants to discuss relations with any of my characters do let me know! i'd love to discuss them if anyone is interested

[sandteeth]

Just got Shorne's post up! Not my best work but I figured I should get something up so no-one's waiting on me!!

[namiwami]

Woooo thank you!!!
I would love to talk relationships but I might write a starter free for the taking first 😋? Not sure who's open, but if there's anyone who's already free I could respond to them too

+ in terms of both of those (ints and relationships) Ivlen's willing and able to interact with anyone and everyone heehoo

[molotov]

name; caldwell
age; twenty-five years old
gender; male
race; cecaelia
role; wheyr shor party member

hair; purple
eyes; red
height; six foot one

abilities / powers; cephalopod physiology. being a cecaelia, a race related to merfolk, caldwell bares eight octopean limbs lined with suckers, each of which can be moved independently letting him touch, cling to and manipulate objects. caldwell is also capable of breathing both in and out of water, and producing ink from his fingertips, which he can use as a momentary means of blinding and confusing enemies. additionally, when in water, he is capable of perceiving the movements within a body of water with extreme accuracy, and determine where threats are located in aquatic environments and water sources.
emotion detection. caldwell has the capability to sense the emotions and moods of the people, animals and other creatures around him. an ability that seems most effective in a one on one interaction, when a individuals feelings are the most clear. though such things can be clouded in crowded environments, when living creatures energies meld together and grow overwhelming on the cecaelia‘s senses, it’s harder to decipher the exact source, more often than not, leaving him mentally drained.
potion brewing. caldwell is unable to conjure up magic on his own, rather, he can create potions: substances with magical properties such as enhancing physical and magical abilities, healing, or changing shape depending on the kind of potion he desires to make. despite the variety, not all of caldwell‘s potions possess permanent affects, and take time to create.
weapons; while not adept in handling your typical weapon, caldwell specializes in creating his fair share of potions, elixirs, poisons and mixtures, much of which he uses to aid his comrades in the heat of battle. though such creations are limited, and take time to recreate, they serve their purpose, weather it be; enhancing an alley’s magic, poisoning a enemy, or healing a wound, caldwell tends to have one or two potions up his sleeve that will get the job done.

personality; a former conman, who, in his youth, utilized wheyr shor to swindle oblivious travelers out of their gold, promising them long-term potions and remedies, despite their affects only lasting a day or so. caldwell presents himself in a manner that most may find untrustworthy, baring a sly smirk and shifty eyes that seem to gleam with mischief, it’s easy to assume him a trickster-type by first impressions alone. though he has long since desired to change his ways, there’s still a long way to go in terms of regaining trust. being so in tune to other peoples emotions; this serves him well in diplomatic affairs, being a rather chatty people-person, with a desire to keep the mood jovial and light for the sake of his own senses. he speaks in a relaxed, lazy manner, addressing most as if they were long lost friends or family. he often takes on the role of a therapist of sorts, easing others into a sense of comfort when he can feel their anxieties and troubles, giving advice when it’s needed and lending a hand or four to anyone who desires it. because of his sensitivity to the emotions of the people around him, caldwell tends to avoid large crowds and gatherings; claiming introversion is to blame for his lack of energy. he isn’t the type to complain much, far more inclined to go with the flow of things, just so long as nothings going wrong, he tries to maintain the peace, and keep others in the same mindset. nevertheless, caldwell isn’t without his tricks, and still pertains an enigmatic personality that makes people think twice about trusting him. if his impish countenance is anything to go by, he loves to tease others when the mood is right, acting in a manner that makes it difficult to interpret his true intentions. he maintains a nonchalant and playful disposition most of the time. the moments he does grow serious, are few and far between, though at the end of the day, he will act in whatever manner will get the job done, even if it means putting on a straight face.

other;
♦ was suggested a worthy candidate to join the wheyr shor party due to his aquatic nature, capable of tracking even the slightest disturbances within the ocean’s waters, and keeping track of a certain guardian, when it finally wakes from its slumber.
♦ ever opportunistic, caldwell utilizes his skills to craft a vast array of potions and mixtures to his advantage, selling them to anyone who is willing to pay him the right amount of gold as a side-hustle.
♦ skilled pickpocket, with the addition of eight extra limbs, his slight of hand can make people weary of standing too close, in fear of their valuables going missing otherwise.
♦ gets visibly ill around seafood, can’t sand the sight or smell of it, especially when it comes to octopus and squid.
