Description Name: Unknown
Age: Unknown



Appearance
Race: Shapeshifter
Form: Humanoid

Eyes: Gold with catlike pupils, think a very metallic gold.

Hair: Very metallic silver, flowing from the left side of her head to her shoulder.

Skin: Like fine porcelain; pale, smooth and perfect.

Build: Average height, very slim and delicate, right side replaced with bionics.

Clothing: White, a tank top which covers only her breasts and a pair of leggings which cover only what is necessary. She wears them only because of the hassle raised if she does not.




Bionics: Cover her entire right side and are bright silver which matches her hair, or more likely the other way around.
On the head the metal replaces only skin, covering almost exactly half of her head, her nose, right eye and mouth are intact however.
Most of her neck is replaced including airways and voice-box, it is unknown whether she was given an electronic voice box.
On her torso the left shoulder and arm are still intact, but almost all other parts have been replaced, on her left side there is only a small strip of remaining skin. The bionics replace all her internal organs and her right arm.
Her right leg is also bionic, including the entire hip joint.


Personality: Stern, snobbish, looks down upon most races, they are like ants to her, albeit ants she now finds herself forced to interact with, she follows customs(such as clothing) only because she doesn't want the fuss involved in not following them.
She is disloyal but not deceitful, she will not try to convince you she's on your side, but if you do make the mistake of thinking she is it is possible she will turn on you.
Often seems more angry but has a hint of sadness in her ways sometimes. She is hard to understand mostly though as she often acts in ways humans never would, her main form of body language being the tapping of her metal fingers, the rhythm of the tapping though is such that no other races could pick out the rhythm let alone place meaning to it.


History: Once she prided herself in being the best shapeshifter in the known universe, but she was too good, one day a horrible accident left much of her right side burnt and torn. A team of doctors saved her, but the bionics were installed under the false impression that she was human. When she awoke she found herself basically trapped in human form.

Fighting Styles: Though she carried knives she is only an average knife fighter, in fact she only carried them out of a wish to not reveal her nature to others when threatened. Why she didn't wish it to be known is unknown, but in the coming battles she is unlikely to keep up the pretence for much longer.

In human form she uses speed and flexibility to her advantage, using her opponents strength against them. She will often employ her one remaining blade. It is as long as her hand, from base of the palm to the tip of her middle finger and as wide as her little finger, one edge is sharp and the tip is a deadly point. It slides out of her bionics at the base of the palm along the pinky edge of her hand.

When it gets too tough for her human form her instincts will force her to change form and it could be anything. Her left leg and arm will morph as will the left side of her face and her eyes (though her eyes will often keep their golden tint), she may suddenly gain strength better reach, or all sorts of other advantages, but no matter what she is slowed down.


Strengths: In her human form she is quick, intelligent and unpredictable.
In her other forms she is strong(usually), has more devastating attacks and is even more unpredictable.


Weaknesses: In her human form her only offensive weapon is a small blade and whatever comes to hand and while fit she is delicate and weakish.
In her other forms she runs mainly on instinct and is much slower due to the fact that her bionics do not change.

Awww..... I'm not the only one with bionics.... Oh well. I've got the firepower department area dominated, I think....

oh, your from RoTL... I must say that whole tournament kind of slipped my mind... better decide if I'm still doing it.

But yes, your bionically enhanced being is definitely more suited to fighting than mine.

Looks like your lucky enough to face the Warsmith in the first round! By the way, how heat resistant are those bionics?

MariaShade In reply to Mourge40k [2010-11-27 22:52:44 +0000 UTC]

I'd say quite heat resistant and she has the ability to make herself heat resistant. I don't think she'd like being long in the heat, but she'd manage for short periods of time.

Ok, just needed to know. Do you think you'll be able to manage writing from the Warsmith's point of view? And what tactics would she use to try and take the Warsmith down?

MariaShade In reply to Mourge40k [2010-11-27 23:01:07 +0000 UTC]

She'll probably rely on her speed and at the worst case scenario would start shifting, that's if they do get into a fight. She can be quite agreeable if approached in other ways.

I think I should be able to do it from Warsmith's point of view, at the moment I am busy with other stuff so I probably won't start till after Christmas so I should be able to see your parts and pick up his personality and style.

Interesting...
I hope that there will an update on her abilities (teleportation appears to be one of them if 'Quaren' is any indication, hopefully she can also speak).
How might she react to a perfectly organic shapeshifter (albeit one with only one alternate form)?

MariaShade In reply to TheTinkerThinker [2010-05-22 10:37:17 +0000 UTC]

No she can't speak, umm her reaction would be hard to read but it might lead her to something like anger as a result of jealousy and contempt.

o.O

The OC I am entering is very good at picking up bodily signals. I can foresee a lot of sparks flying in the future

The thing to watch out with with silver though is that reading her body language is hard because her original form is so alien. But yes it would be interesting to see... I'm still figuring out a lot about my character as I go along.

You never seem lazy to me, just not inclined to do what you are supposed to do.
