Description

Name: Eve
Age: 28
Height: Varies; human form 5 ft 9 in
Weight: 150kg; human form 45 kg
Race: Naga
Faction: Stoneholem
Bio:

A young nagini with a flair for craftmanship, Eve hails from Stoneholem's wild mountains. Drawn to the nation's capital by curiosity and wanderlust, Eve and her lover Prathama traveled to the mountain city to learn the ways of the myriad peoples there.
While Prathama found his calling as a Mountain Warden of the city, Eve chose instead to nurture her talent for craftmanship and art, working from her small shop in a trade district. She specializes in home decor, woodwork, and flower arrangement, and she enjoys gardening.

Normally calm, soft-spoken, and generally agreeable, Eve is not easily goaded into impatience. Like many Naga, however, she has a fear of large predatory birds, and becomes extremely irritated at her tail-tip being touched or tickled.

Likes: taking it easy, milk and honey, music, fine silks, braiding, water, the scent of wildflowers, stars
Dislikes: disturbance, loud noises, being interrupted while working, large birds of prey, being hurried, her tail-tip being touched

Personality:

Eve is calm and courteous, and speaks with a cool, measured tone. Although she is soft-spoken, her bearing is calmly assertive and subtly strong. She speaks openly and smiles often. She has a playful side which emerges when she is with Prathama, and they will tickle and tease each other as they bond. Eve loves to dance, and cannot resist a lively beat. She is just as likely to be the charmer as the charmed, however; her sultry moves often leave observers smitten.

Main powers/abilities:

-Shapeshifting. Her ability is not fully developed, and she can only take one form - the guise of a human. As is common to all Naga, the guise falters if or when she falls asleep.
-As a Naga, she secretes a powerful venom from her cobra heads, which can be spat.
-Her cobra heads can attack with great physical force, and deliver venomous bites.

Additional Information:
-Her favorite flower is the Night-flowering Jasmine.
-She is a great dancer.
-The jewel she keeps in her navel is a gift from her partner, Prathama. He has a matching forehead-gem.
-The five cobra hoods which ring her head and shoulders are a spiritual manifestation of her being, similar in concept to the halo of an angel.

Real-world Lore:

The Naga (Sanskrit: नाग; lit. "cobra") are a class of supernatural entities originating in Indian mythology. They are portrayed as cobras or half-human, half-serpent beings, often with multiple hoods. They are powerful nature spirits and guardians of the earth and waters, and have the ability to manipulate the weather and make rain. The ancient Indian epic poem, the Mahabharata, describes their martial prowess and deadly venom. They are assuredly shapeshifters, capable of disguising themselves as humans and animals, and growing large or small at will. According to a Buddhist tale, the guise of a Naga will fail under two conditions: when they are asleep, or when they are making love to a member of their own race. In art, a naga in human form is often identified by and portrayed with a halo of cobra hood(s) framing their head and shoulders.
