Description
Name: PhynnAge: Unknown
Ht/Wt: 5'7"/118lbs
Likes: The dark, her skull, Rizell, and necromancy.
Dislikes: Poltergeists, "Surface walkers", dogs, and dry foods.
Ability: Phynn is a necromancer, and as such, she is most familiar with the ways of the dead, and the "other side". She is known as the oracle of the sewer dwellers, and she uses human bones to do her divining and spell casting. As well as being able to reanimate the dead, she is also capable of what is called "soul stealing", wherein she absorbs the soul of the foe into the skull she carries. This tactic replenishes her energy, and allows her to gain any magical knowledge that the absorbed soul has. She can also use the skull to drain the life energy out of another being, albeit very slowly. Usually, she only does this when the being in question is tied down and sedated. Less trouble that way. less messy too.
Personality: Phynn is, for lack of a better word, emotionless. Always speaking in a light airy tone, she constantly sports a wide-eyed, bemused sort of expression. She has a very morbid outlook, and constantly speaks in riddles. Occasionally, she'll show a small spark of enjoyment if she's involving herself in some particularly grim Necromancy, but other than that, she has the emotional range of a teaspoon.
The Skull
Having been used as a storage vessel for soul energy for so long, this skull has gained a level of sentience only known to Phynn herself. Not even Rizell can unlock the secrets inside it, or hear it speak. It often instructs Phynn in her magical endeavours, as it has a strong connection to the other side, and has become a familiar of sorts. The skull is the core of Phynn's power, and without it, she is nearly 89% less proficient at magic. It also gives her energy when she's running low herself.
Fighting style
Generally, Phynn uses typical necromancer tactics, attacking her foes with the reanimated dead. However, her limited energy can make this difficult to do en masse, so she can only reanimate up to ten corpses at a time. Any more would quickly drain her life energy, and could very well result in her death. Aside from this, she will also absorb life energy from her foes bit by bit, weakening them enough to pull their souls into the skull. Blood is also an important ingredient in her magic, and she can use it to make sigils that create powerful spells. However, the creation of a sigil is a slightly lengthy process, and she only uses it when in dire need, because she is vulnerable during it's creation. She may prepare a sigil before combat every now and then just in case, but usually she prefers to have them customized to the opponent for optimum effect. Sigils do not deplete Phynn's life energy, but rather that of the skull's. After the use of a sigil, the skull will usually request a bit of soul to give it back it's charge.

Sounds like an interesting character. Is she human or something more?

I like the bit if her talking in rhymes and riddles, but they sound like a hassle to have to make up
