Feel free to tell me if she's overpowered or I forgot something. I kind of rushed things at the end, being tired and all. [b]Name:[/b] Lu’sula Lan Velfor [b]Nickname:[/b] Lula [b]Age:[/b] 140 (Mid twenties in human years) [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Race:[/b] [hider=Race Description] Lu’sula is a member of an alien race called the Xea, which was dominant in their universe and various dimensions linked to it for many eons. They have the power to rip holes through the fabric of space-time and many other advanced technologies indistinguishable from magic that allowed them to accomplish said feat. However, the Conquered War, an uprising lead by various races previously under Xea control, lead to the universe’s destruction with the activation of a superweapon. This action broke the proverbial camel’s back, as the space-time of their universe was already filled with holes to begin with, causing the universe’s reality to collapse. Some pockets of space-time managed to survive, however, including the capital of the Xea which was sheltered in it’s own dimension to begin with. The pocket dimensions split from the capital became known as the lost dimensions, some of which contain valuable artifacts and other things that they wish to reclaim, although reopening the pathways to them has been strenuous at best. Xea survivors within the lost dimensions suffered various fates largely dependent on circumstance. Some managed to regain past glory while others were overcome by the hardships, which included battling surviving enemies of the Conquered War now getting the upper hand against the fractured Xea. Originally numbering in the trillions, 90% of all Xea died in the initial event and 60% of said survivors in the aftermath. However, their population is recovering, especially in the capital dimension and other flourishing pocket dimensions. At least one pocket dimension was thrown outside of their original universe and into another one. [/hider] [hider=Race Powers] Most members of her race have glowing flecks on their skin. This energy flowing through them is called essentia in English, or ehdda in their own language. Those who hone the ehdda within them have these flecks slowly develop into designs like tattoos that cover their entire body if complete mastery is achieved. Silver colored ehdda is gained through enlightenment. Gold is gained from absorbing it from ethereal monsters that can travel through space-time called Ehddana (“born from the Ehdda”) that the Xea have hunted and battled with since the beginning of their existence. Red is gained through absorbing ehdda from other Xea, a controversial practice to be sure. To acquire ehdda is such a manner often involves a ritual. Few can be powerful enough to rip it from someone without one. Only these two beings are known to house Ehdanna within them. The most powerful of Xea can be seen like Gods. The weakest among them, called unlit, don’t have any ehdda within them. Ehdda comes from a cosmic force that can literally be called God, which mixes with the parent’s own life force upon Xea conception. Some believe Ehdda energy to be infinite although this is not the case. It does not always mix upon conception, resulting in the baby being unlit. It’s also possible to loose the energy for unknown reasons at any point during pregnancy, often claimed as a result of the mother doing something sacrilegious. Unlit children are often ostracized. Depending on culture, in the more backwoods area of Xea culture, even the entire family could be punished. Some unlit children are sacrificed or banished to other dimensions. Whatever the case, many view them as being unfavorable to the cosmic entity Uo, which supplies the ehdda. The power of ehdda enhances their physical abilities. Other common abilities involve them able to forever alter their physical appearance to suit their desire and create an aura that spreads out from their body, able to strike others with great force if concentrated enough. They can also take over someone else’s spirit and body. Some can fine tune the powers of nature, controlling the elements, for example, or bending physics to their will. The pureblooded Xea in the capital dimensions hold most of the wealth of ehdda power. More and more of them are being born unlit, however, a troubling phenomenon causing mass panic and exodus. The higher powers wish to regain lost glory so are cracking down with an iron fist. [/hider] [Hider=Race Appearance] Xea are human-like with some differences. Besides the previously mentioned flecks of color on their skin (silver, gold, or red), they also have three bronze colored horns on each side of their head hugging it closely, appearing almost like a crown that doesn’t connect across their forehead. Their skin color is pale white, almost translucent, though not quite. Their eyes are solid black and misty looking. They have no nails on their fingers or toes. Their hair glows the color of the flakes on their skin, with white hair being for unlit. Elderly Xea do grow fainter over time in this regard, thus being closer to unlit in appearance, although never completely until death claims them. Xea have no body hair. Xea can change their appearance over time through their force of will, although most are still recognizable as Xea, especially due to their flecks never going away as long as they retain their power, which they would indeed have to if they transformed in the first place. [/hider] [b]Appearance:[/b] Lu’sula is 5’8” tall. She has golden colored flecks on her skin; many on her shoulders, upper back, and back of her calves winding around to the top of her feet. Some can also be found on her cheeks and nose. Smaller amounts exist elsewhere. She has long flowing hair down to her lower back with is glowing golden as well. She has sharp, serious looking features. She has an athletic, slender build. For other appearance, see “Race Appearance”. [b]Personality:[/b] She’s horrible at understanding sarcasm and jokes, rarely using them herself. Many would describe her as a wet blanket. She doesn’t trust easily so is quick to take defensive action. It’s clear she’s been through some past trauma. [b][u]Abilities[/u][/b] [b]Physical Abilities-[/b] She fights with strength and agility that few normal humans can match. Her reaction times are enhanced. Her senses are healthy but not noticeably enhanced. Fighting for prolonged periods of time and pushing her limits exhausts her, so long distances runners could eventually overtake her. [b]Training-[/b] She has advanced training with her weapon as well as hand to hand that looks similar to kung fu that’s traditional to her people. She’s not a prodigy, achieving her level of skill through practice and determination. [b]Other abilities-[/b] She cannot use any advanced powers of her people yet. [b][u]Equipment[/u][/b] [b]Outfit:[/b] Form fitting light armor that looks similar to the images on the right but without the helmet and in dull purple colors [url=http://66.media.tumblr.com/17b48fa5a54ccc4bf028292fe2f6761c/tumblr_napvm4CPlO1rrft8no1_1280.jpg](Not my picture)[/url]. It cannot protect well against blunt force or high powered weaponry. She prefers the ease of movement it provides her. [b]Weapons:[/b] She wields a futuristic looking bow and arrow that can fire 20 thin golden arrows (without feathers) found at her side in a quiver. The string is actually blue energy that comes out in string form that latches onto the back of the arrow before pulling it forward at speeds as fast as a bullet once released, only of course are much larger than bullets so pack more of a punch. As that happens the energy string disappears and exhausts flows out a vent on the body of the bow near the tips. She can fire one shot every three seconds. The body of the bow can snap together to form a broadsword, the handle rotating and lengthening to accommodate it’s new form. The blade length is three feet. It’s more sturdy than human made steel but can still break if enough force is applied. [b][u]Bio[/u][/b] Work in progress. Sister is an unlit so that spurred her into action due to events as a result.
