SEXUALITY-- Heterosexual. ------------------------------------------------- PLAY-BY-- Cyntia Dicker EYES-- Bright green. Wide, large doe-ish eyes. HAIR-- Red, waist -length. Wavy and medium thickness. BODY TYPE-- Slim and willowy. Slight curves and long legs. HEIGHT-- 5 Foot, 7 inches. WEIGHT-- 135 pounds. DISTINGUISHING FEATURES-- She has multiple dashes in straight lines burned into the flesh of her left side, something she blames on a hunter who tortured her before she finally got away. This is not true, but people have to dig for the real reason. A long, white scar runs down her left thigh. It's thin, and is the result of a run-in with a particularly twisted hunter. Also, she has a tattoo of a phoenix spanning most of the skin of her back, much like this one: STYLE-- Style varies. Most often, she's a jeans-and-tee with Converse kind of girl, but sometimes she will wear completely girly clothing or even goth/scene-ish stuff. She always has a ring on her left ring finger, not because she's engaged or anything, but because it fits best there. The ring is a thin silver band with a small garnet set into it. She also wears a signet ring on her right middle finger. It is also silver with a garnet stone. She wears make-up, but in general it is a natural sort of make-up with bright lipstick. On occasion, if she is in the mood, she will also wear goth-style make-up. ------------------------------------------------- LIKES-- Reading Writing Singing Dancing Hunting Basically anyone who isn't an a**hole or a hunter. Being dramatic/Acting Pretty much any food MUSIC People-watching, trying to guess who is what in this world. She flirts a LOT, and doesn't necessarily do it on purpose/mean anything by it, but she definitely enjoys it. Drawing/Sketching... If it turns out pleasingly. Boots. All boots. Telly shows. Caffeinated tea. DISLIKES-- Mushrooms Hunters Prejudices/People who are prejudiced Moths. Scared of them. Heights and enclosed/dark spaces, because of frightening experiences she had as a child. Seeing any injuries to the eye. Ever. She is very superstitious about eyes, as they are "the windows to the soul". Impatience, though it's more herself than anyone else. Her own impatience. People who seem fake, or put up a 'front' of a certain personality type. Sloppy handwriting. Knives and whips. Her eye will twitch and she will be unable to concentrate on much other than the object until it is out of her sight. She has had terrifying experiences with hunters who used these specific weapons. People who disrespect other's privacy. When things are slightly off-kilter/unbalanced. She wants to fix it. Like, if someone's left sleeve was rolled up and the other was down, she would want to fix it. Death and killing. She hates the sight of blood. STRENGTHS-- She is a good judge of character, and can usually identify whether or not someone is planning to harm her. She chose a good, strong animal: a tiger. Useful in battle, though she is vulnerable during the shift. She is personable, and good at building bonds between herself and others. She creates a full circle of friends for herself wherever she goes, which can be useful when she needs help. (She does actually care about these people, whether they are supernatural or not. She'd never think of using them as pawns or body-shields, and some could say that her attachment is a weakness.) In dire situations, she can distract herself from her humanity, making it easier for her to fight or kill without feeling remorse. She only uses this when in situations that there is no foreseeable way to avoid killing, as she hates the idea of killing someone whether or not they intend to hurt her. She has a particularly good sense of hearing and a fairly good connection to most cats(larger, the better). WEAKNESSES-- The sight of blood. It freaks her out. She will begin to feel faint, uncomfortable, nauseated. Things she is afraid of can be used against her, because her fear often consumes her and makes it difficult for her to concentrate on the situation at hand. The shift! She is vulnerable during the shift. The pain makes her senses shut down, basically. Some could argue that her attachment to humans and people in general is a weakness, because she would die for them, and if they are harmed/killed for her, the guilt and grief leaves her vulnerable. She is, after all, much like a human. So, she is not invulnerable to life-threatening illnesses or to anything that could kill a normal human. Knives are a crippling fear of hers. As are heights and enclosed spaces. These fears are things that she is trying to get over, but progress is very slow. HABITS-- She bites her nails. She pushes her bangs up off of her forehead a lot, especially when she is exasperated. She drinks caffeinated tea every morning, and basically every time she is in proximity of a way to make it. So, if she goes to a friend's house, chances are she will invade their cabinets to make herself a nice cup of Earl Grey or Irish Breakfast. She nibbles on her lower lip, creating splits in the skin just on the inside. She hums bits of tunes or compositions randomly, often without realizing she is doing it. Also, when an instrumental song is on, she tends to vocalize a harmony to it. She flirts constantly with girls and boys alike. FEARS-- Moths. Spiders. Knives. Whips. Heights. Enclosed/Dark spaces. Also, being unable to fully see her surroundings. Rape. She constantly has an under-lying fear of rape. DESIRES-- Love and lust. She is constantly seeking out affirmation, romance, and of course, an outlet for her more blush-worthy emotions. Safety. SECRETS-- ) She is very sexual, gets turned on easily. She keeps this fact unknown because she is also somewhat shy in nature, though she doesn't stay that way when tempted. She struggles with anxiety and depression, and used to burn herself as a way to cope. (This is where the burns on her left side came from.) OVERALL-- Edisth has a dark past, and has to struggle to trust people. She had an abusive father(alcoholic), and he used to push her into closets and lock her there for days before he'd remember she was there in the first place(her fear of enclosed spaces stems from this.) She has had many run-ins with hunters, a few being particularly twisted: These particular hunters tortured her for days before she found a way out of the situations. She has ended up killing every hunter she has run into, but hates the fact that she couldn't have escaped another way. Trust issues aside, when she does trust someone, she usually trusts them completely(to a fault). This has not led to problems for her yet, but it is an issue that could foreseeably have consequences. Edisth is a very kind person, but can become very hardened towards people if they threaten her family or herself. She has a sunny disposition, more likely to talk to someone than not. ------------------------------------------------- MOTHER-- Viola McNabb. Deceased. FATHER-- Aidan McNabb. Deceased. SIBLINGS-- Brother: Thomas Nathaniel McNabb. Whereabouts unknown. OTHER PERSONS OF IMPORTANCE-- Not applicable currently. ETHNICITY-- White: Irish, Scottish, and Welsh. WEALTH STATUS-- Fairly well off, but only because her brother apparently did not want his half of their inheritance. OVERALL-- Edisth has always been the youngest and most vulnerable of her family. She was targeted by her abusive father (Aidan), and this was ignored by both her brother (Thomas) and mother (Viola). She was often beaten or locked into closets for days on end with no food or water. Her father, upon remembering what he had done while drunk, would usually bring her out to get new clothing or treat her to a sundae because he felt terrible. But it happened again, every time he drank. Edisth and her brother had a good relationship. Thomas would usually be the person she turned to after an episode of drunkenness. He would take care of her, make sure she was patched up and not in pain. They got along well, and she was devastated when he disappeared from their home the night of the fire. Edisth's mother was a very cold person. She was addicted to pain medications, and was often not "all there", if she was even conscious. The fire: When Edisth was about fifteen, a giant fire ruined her house, taking her mother and father with it. Her brother disappeared as well, though his body was not found in the rubble. After the fire, Edisth was homeless for a short while before being taken in by two sisters, who took care of her needs(food, shelter, clothing), but were also detached and not all that caring.

RP SAMPLE--

Edisth rolled out of bed, her eyes blinking slowly to adjust to the bright light streaming in through her bedroom window. She smiles and stretches, her arms reaching for the ceiling. As the redhead moves out of her cream-coloured bedroom, she automatically hums quietly, a new tune popping into her head.
The girl shuffles into her small kitchen, rubbing a palm over her tired eyes. She rustles through the cabinet for her favorite tea, Irish Breakfast. She sets the kettle on, and moves back to her bedroom to change into a pair of teal skinny jeans and a grey and white striped crop top. The willowy girl considers briefly putting her long, wavy hair up, but shakes her head and opts to leave it down today.
As Edisth hears the kettle scream, she dashes out of her room to take it off the burner. She opens the top of her pale yellow tea pot, dropping four tea bags in and filling it to the brim to allow it to steep. The pale girl moves back into her bedroom and kneels down to reach for a pair of grey ballet flats, the ones with the silver studs on the heel and toe. She smiles as she slips them on, then walks to her mirror to quickly apply a swipe of dark mascara to her eyes and coral lipstick to her lips. “I suppose I’m in a bright mood today.” She mutters to herself, dabbing at her lower lip with a tissue before adding one more coat.
Edisth looks away from the mirror for a moment as she trails her fingers over the talisman that hangs beside it, a clear amber pendant with a single crack on the inside. She winces slightly, the cold glass a shock to her fingertips. “Brother.” She whispers quietly, before picking up the necklace and placing it over her head.
