Name: Jade Shinra
Age: Seventeen
Gender: Female
Race: Dark Elf/Breton Half-ling
Birth Sign: The Mage
Hair Color/Style: Her hair is all black, with a tint of blue. It's pretty long, going at least two-thirds of the way down her back.
Eye color: Emerald Green
Skin Tone: Neptune Blue
Guild/Faction Part of:
Mages Guild Evoker
Likes:
She really loves her older brother. He's acted much like a guardian and mentor for Jade her whole life. She liked Emperor Uriel Septim when she was younger, and mourned his passing worse than a lot of people. She enjoys strawberries a lot, and of course the Mages Guild. The guild and the people of Bravil are her life.
Dislikes
Jade hates necromancers with a passion. She suspects that they killed her brother's mother, even though they endlessly deny ever doing so. What actually happened to her is a mystery, but Jade and Apollo have always had prejudice toward the summoners of death and Daedra. Besides that, not much. She has a strange hatred of raw turnips for some reason.
Turn Ons:
She has a good sense of humor, and loves good food. So if you're a guy who can tell a good joke, and cook a good meal, you're in.
Turn Offs:
Arrogance and muscle-heads
Nervous Habits: She has a bad habit of looking over her shoulder since the incident when the vampire ambushed her. She's constantly looking back and fourth. She's also a nail-biter, and isn't exactly a lady when it comes to manners.
Girl/Boyfriend: She's single
Friends:
She's a loner by nature, and tends to avoid unnecessary conversation. She's quite content to just sit down with a book, and relax for hours.
Rivals:
Although it is a pretty childish rivalry, she and her brother sometimes race to see who can master a spell better, or just plain race from house to house. The latter has died down as the two have become adults, but occasionally they feel the need to act like kids.
Again, she's pretty fearful of people so she doesn't know anyone else who would be her rival.
Fears:
She fears that Bravil will burn like Kvatch did, and she fears being attacked again. Her biggest fear is probably losing her best friend and mentor, Apollo. If she lost her brother, she would probably lose her will to live, and no male could take his place no matter how hard they tried.
Job:
Usually she handles destruction training in the Bravil guild. She has access to the university, but prefers to work from her home town. Often times, she and her brother take care of beasts/demons/Daedra outside of Bravil. Only when the town guard can't handle it though, or if a magic specialist is what's needed.
Weapon/s:
She carries an enchanted fiery dagger around with her, and it hangs at her side. It's a Daedric weapon she stole from one of the vampires who attacked her when she was little, and has a strong ebony metal, with Daedric carvings. Its reddened appearance is only amplified on the strike when fire appears to singe the enemy.
Powers:
Her main strength lies in her ability to handle immense amounts of destruction magic thrown at her. She resists magic like a beast, and she could literally dance in fire without it bothering her. She was bred to handle fire, which makes her an excellent candidate for battling most forms of Daedra. She herself is quite the destructionist, and trains people at the Bravil mages guild. Her older half-brother, Apollo, taught her everything she knows.
Weaknesses:
She's really small, and because she's so loved by the Mages Guild, the necromancers hate her. Being Apollo's sibling doesn't help her either, as her ill tempered brother basically declared war on them in the name of the guild. She's not as good with blade as some Dark Elves because she has focused most of her life on magics. As such, she can't defend against physical damage very well at all. Her biggest weakness is her lower right arm, which was broken in two places fighting a vampire that snuck up on her. It smashed her with a war hammer, and she ended it with a fire spell.
Appearance:
Color-wise, she doesn't live up to her name. She's not any sort of bluish green or bluish purple, or any sort of weird aqua or cyan or teal - she's just straight up blue. There's no fancier word to describe it. She's a very bright blue, and looks more or less like a normal Dark Elf. The only difference is that she has Breton blood in her too, so there are a few distinct things Dunmer of nobility will notice right away. For one, her eyes aren't red. They're instead strikingly the opposite color, green. Clearly a trait she inherited from her father's side of the family, as both Albus and Apollo have green eyes. Another strange genetic twist is that her left foot, and ONLY her left foot, from the ankle down is a pale human color.
Jade is rather small, and gets her looks from her mother's side - The dark elf side. Considering her lack of activity, she has a fairly athletic build, and is capable of moving quite fast when she has to. As far as maturity goes, she looks like a adult woman.
Personality:
Though she's generally a good person, Jade can judge people too early and has a bit of a mean streak if you tick her off. She isn't afraid to say what's on her mind, and if she dislikes you, you will know it. She has a tendency to cut people off in the middle of a sentence if she disagrees, but only if she doesn't really know the person. Her loyalties are to her brother and her guild, and she will do anything she can to protect them. Anything...
Father:
Albus Shinra, allegedly late Wizard of the Mages Guild. He was a powerful Breton, but he went missing soon after Apollo declared that necromancers to be foul wretches worthy of the caves they live in. Apparently that offended them.
Mother:
Not much is known about her, but she was a beautiful Dunmer by the name of Lietta Dracon. She's still around, but isn't a big part of Jade's life.
Sibling/s:
She's got one half brother, Apollo, who's profile I will be adding soon enough. They have a good strong relationship.
History/Past:
Growing up, she spent most of her time following in the footsteps of her older brother, who was in the Mages Guild. She was a junior associate by the age of nine, and after countless heroic acts in county Bravil, she was granted access to the university. She's got quite a resume for someone so young, including saving one of the noblemen from an angry bear. She spent five years living with just Apollo in the Arcane University.
Jade learned most of what she knows from her brother, but unlike him, her knowledge of physical weapons in limited, and she's only really skilled in the dark magics, and defense against them. Apollo is about on par with her in terms of his destruction skill, but he's also an excellent alchemist, and healer.
She can't swim because no one ever showed her how, and she can't even carry a war hammer thanks to her bad arm. After going after a crook in Bravil one day, trying to make a citizen's arrest, the man eluded her. That night, she learned why he was in such a hurry. originally, she thought he had stolen a necklace from one of her friends. But in actuality, her friend was dead in her own home...and she had two holes in the side of her neck and a pool of blood to lay in. This man was a vampire, and Jade was next for trying to stop him. She was attacked in her sleep with a large hammer, and she had just enough time to use a blind but powerful fire spell to divert his swing a bit. Instead of smashing her face like he wanted to, he only managed to completely ruin the spell-casting arm. Her arm will never fully recover, but her spell killed the vamp almost instantly. After all, she's a master destructionist and the vampire was an Altmer, making it especially weak to fire magic. She's easily over encumbered by most armours. As such, she's generally seen clad in a hooded black robe. Usually an enchanted one. She's not an outdoor girl at all, and will generally only venture out of Bravil by horse, or on foot if Apollo is there with her. This is because she isn't confident that she could fully defend herself alone. She considers the death of the vampire to be mostly luck, and her arm, a constant reminder that she needs to be alert.
Right now she's imprisoned in a Necromancer cavern. Normally, though, she lives in her house in Bravil with her brother. The two inherited the house from their common parent, their apparently late late father Albus (A Breton) in accordance with his will, as he's suspected to be dead. Previously, before Jade was born, their father Albus Shinra lived with Juliana Anthosa, Apollo's mother.
There was always something not quite right about the disappearance of her father though. He had set off to destroy the hope of an anarchist necromancer cell that the guild had been tracking for some time, and capture the insurgents. His body was never found, and the necromancers still exist in that same cave, near Bravil. Jade and Apollo really don't know what to make of it, but they believe soemthing...bad...happened to their dad.
RP Sample:
Jade, after encountering one of the less than polite guards who tried to hit on her:
"Excuse me, Sir Shakeshiswandalot, I don't believe I know you. Stop blocking the guild hall...Let me past now!"
The guard gave her a rather sly grin, and moved his head in closer with puckered lips, using one hand to force Jade into the kiss. The teenager flailed her arms, and growled, punching him in the nose with her left arm.
"Ma'am, assaulting guard is punishable by no less than a fine of forty gold pieces," another guard told her, moving in to grab her arm. "And what of him?" she asked, her lips curled into a vicious snarl at this point. "What happens to this jerk, who's over there drooling because he got to kiss me? Against my will, i might add. Sexual assault means I'm allowed to defend myself. Oh, and if you try to arrest me for it, I'll just tell the count. I saved his nephew from a bear, so I'm pretty sure I'm in higher standing than you. Let it go or I'll drop you where you stand..." She told him, a scorching flare seemed to be gathering together at her finger tips. "Get him out of my way, and leave me ALONE. Perverts!"
"Y-yes Ma'am..." The guard with the nose-bleed said, and the two of them ran off. Yeah, it was pretty cool to have such influence...
