[h3][b]Appearance[/b][/h3]
[indent][url=http://vitavitaar.deviantart.com/art/Tanya-in-armor-new-620892686]Tanya in her armor[/url] Tanya is a very short girl at only 4'9. Her armor is silver and her hair is purple, her eyes are purple as well. She has a pale skintone, and her sword has a silver blade with a gold hilt and handguard.[/indent]

[h3][b]Personality[/b][/h3]
[indent]Tanya is a sarcastic and short-tempered individual. She has nothing but scathing comments for people she dislikes, or people she sees as stupid. Tanya is quick to be irritated and quick to respond to her irritation, sometimes violently. At least when it's violently it's not bad enough to result in any serious injury. She has a sarcastic response to many, many things. Tanya also dislikes that she is rather small, at least to some extent, and has feelings of jealousy towards those who are not so small. In spite of her temper and sarcastic attitude, Tanya firmly believes in protecting those who need it and upholding the law. She seeks to punish all those who do evil to the fullest extent(at least if they are deserving of such treatment). She also has a deep dislike for undead, given that much of her duty is to eliminate dangerous undead. However, she will not harm them unless they give her reason to(or if they're mindless monsters). As a Reonite Paladin, she is deeply devoted to her chosen goddess and, and is also deeply anti-slavery.[/indent]

[h3][b]Backstory[/b][/h3]
[indent]Born to the Palayen family, nobility living in the richest quarter of Meridan, Tanya was encouraged from a very young age to become part of the Church of Reon's more active service. The idea of serving their Goddess enticed her to no end. As such, Tanya Tanya became a Paladin of the sun goddess, sworn to combat evil in her name. Aside from that, she was educated at the "St. Lilianna's Reonite School for Girls", a religious school for girls created by the Church of Reon. She also underwent combat training under other paladins serving Reon.[/indent]

[h3][b]Abilities/Skills[/b][/h3]
[indent]Tanya is a skilled combatant, excelling in both two-handed and one-handed swordplay, though her favored style is two-handed. However, due to the enchantments on her armor and weapons which renders them far lighter than they should be, her physical strength is actually rather lacking, and instead she is more of a speedy fighter who nevertheless hits hard due to her training and choice of weaponry.[/indent]

[h3][b]Weapons/Tools[/b][/h3]
[indent]Tanya wears a suit of heavy armor to protect herself. However, the armor is enchanted to feel weightless, but only to the wielder, allowing her to move quite quickly. Similarly, her bastard sword, Repharion, is also subjected to enchantments that enhance her strength enough to wield it while holding the sword. Repharion is kept very sharp, and ignites with the Divine Solar Flame of Reon in response to the righteous fury of its wielder. This is chiefly intended for use against undead, but it's hard to deny the effectiveness against just about anything.[/indent]

[h3][b]Weaknesses/Limits[/b][/h3]
[indent]Tanya is still a normal human, and even with the enchantments on her armor and weapon, she can tire, she can be injured, and without outside healing heals at a normal rate of human being. While she does have a surprisingly hard punch due to the way her armor's enchantment works, she is not actually very strong due to Repharion's function. When disarmed she is much less dangerous.[/indent]

Also, um, noticed mention of "characters must obey the rules of the universe" and "characters may change appearance" in the characters tab. For the former, how do you mean? And for the latter, how drastic would that be and how enforced is it?
