She dedicated her entire life studying these fantastic animals, their predatory habits, their venoms and toxins... While not extremely well known, mostly due to her young age, some of the most experienced biologists know her name very well and admire her due to her intellect.[/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]HEIGHT[/sub][/color][hr] [indent]1,80m (before mutation. After the mutation her height can vary depending on how high she stands on her tail. [/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]WEIGHT[/sub][/color][hr] [indent]Around 180Kg [/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]APPEARANCE[/sub][/color][hr] [indent]Her Egyptian lineage is very evident, thanks to her slightly tanned skin, a beautiful black, straight hair. Her beautiful face very often make others think about the old Egyptian queens, due to the delicate traces and exquisite beauty. The clothes and the jewelry she wears further contribute to this "old Egypt" appearance. Her body although limber and flexible (much more than a normal human, thanks to the mutation) hide powerful muscles, especially on the hips, abdomen and her tail. Due to the serum, her lower half has completely mutated into a snake tail, she has a pair of long, venomous fangs which are hidden inside her mouth, which become very noticeable if she opens it too wide (akin to a snake's fangs and how they fold themselves). [/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]POSITIVE TRAITS[/sub][/color][hr] [indent][list][*]Patient and calculist: Naeemah can be very patient and calculist when she wants to be. This trait was particularly effective in her training, given the creature she has chosen. [*]Intelligence and Logic: Naeemah's ability to assess a situation, analyze it, quickly and calmly come to a solution to it is very evident. [*]Alert: Naeemah has a very good situational awareness, which was further developed thanks to her training. [/list][/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]NEGATIVE TRAITS[/sub][/color][hr] [indent][list][*]Possessive and Territorial: Naeemah is very possessive and territorial, especially regarding her room, her things and her lover. [*]Deceitful and Scheming: She can and will sometimes try to manipulate others to get what she wants. [*]Vengeful: Naeemah can hold a grudge for a very long time, and will only rest when she have her vengeance. [/list][/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]QUIRKS[/sub][/color][hr] [indent][list][*]Skin shedding: Naeemah is very sensitive about who sees her when she is changing her skin. If someone sees her in that state, she will get very irritated. [*]Personal Space: Naeemah is very particular about her personal space, but she tends to not respect others' that much. [*]Not Exactly a Hero: Naeemah is not a hero per se. She has not the incorruptible sense of ethics that some others has. Instead, she literally does whatever she feels like. The only thing that holds her on the justice side is her loved one. [/list][/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]ANIMAL[/sub][/color][hr] [indent]Snakes[/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]POWERS[/sub][/color][hr] [indent][list][*]Ophidian Physiology: Flexible jaw, snake lower body (capable climbing on some surfaces as long as there is some type of crevice or imperfections, but she can only run as fast as a human can), cold blooded, scales, Jacobson's organs (Enhanced sense of smell by using her forked tongue). [*]Ophidic Weapons: Extremely venomous bite (the toxin contains both neurotoxins and blood coagulants) and constriction (by coiling around her prey, Naeemah can constrict it to break its bones, stop it from breathing and even kill it.) [*]Ambush Predator: Naeemah is not a predator which chases her prey, as her speed is the same as a regular human, but an ambush predator. Silently moving through vegetation, shadows, rubble or anywhere she can hide, she will patiently wait for her prey before strike it. [*]Pit Organs: Three small holes on each side of her nose, going from near her eyes to the base of her nose. These small dots are protected by a membrane and are basically the same pit organs found on snakes. Behind this membrane, there is an air-filled chamber that provides air contact on either side of the membrane. The pit membrane is highly vascular and heavily innervated with numerous heat-sensitive receptors, literally making her able to sense infrared thermal radiation. [/list][/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]WEAKNESSES[/sub][/color][hr] [indent][list] [*]Ectothermic: Cold is Naeemah's worst enemy. It can affect her body in a variety of ways ranging from either make her slow and lethargic on most brand situations, make her hibernate on most serious situations or even literally freeze her blood on most extreme situations. [*]Skin Shedding: Naeemah needs to change her skin once every two days. Normally, it would be painless and only once per month, but due to the skin cancer she needs to do it once every two days, and its a very painful process. [*]Eyesight: Naeemah cannot see colors, instead only seeing in black and white. [*]Sense of Taste: Due to her physiology, Naeemah doesn't have a sense of taste. [/list][/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]CARCINOGENIC QUALITIES[/sub][/color][hr] [indent][list][*]Thin Blood. [*]Painful Skin Shedding. [*]Unstable Scales Pigmentation. The cancer affected Naeemah mostly on her skin and blood. Skin shedding, is very painful and tiring to her due to the pain it causes. Due to the cancer, her blood is rather thin, making it very difficult to staunch a wound (she needs to take a medication every single morning in order to allow her blood to clot normally, otherwise if she cuts herself, she will bleed until the wound is sealed. One more effect from the skin cancer is her scales' pigmentation. Every single time she changes her skin, the patterns on her scales change (due to the painful process). [/list][/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]SURVIVAL RATE[/sub][/color][hr] [indent]Her cancer is currently at stage IB: The 5-year survival rate is around 92%. The 10-year survival is around 86%.[/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]FEARS[/sub][/color][hr] [indent][list][*]Losing Todd: She knows that it will happen someday, but she tends to not think about it. She becomes extremely aggressive when someone hurts him. [*]Cold: Due to her cold blooded nature, she is extremely afraid of dying from it. [*]Her future: She still has some hopes that the Maximation will find a cure, a solution for their flawed serums, but the thought that their future together is doomed still haunts her mind. [/list][/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO BEFORE YOU DIE?[/sub][/color][hr] [indent]Just be together with the one who she loves. Its all she wants.[/indent] [color=8dc73f][sub]HISTORY[/sub][/color][hr] [indent]Naeemah was born in a wealthy and recognized family, said to have the same blood that ran through the veins of the queens and pharaohs of the old Egypt. As such, it is not a surprise that it was a very rigid family. Being the only daughter amongst two brothers, Naeemah was raised with the best that the money could buy. The best tutors, the best schools, the best clothes... If it was any other kid, it would probably have turned into a spoiled brat, but Naeemah always was a peculiar child. Her sharp tongue and quick wit ensured that she always got what she wanted. People who knew her often said that she had an infamously venomous tongue. After she graduated herself, She choose to be a biologist, specializing herself in ophiology. Nobody knew why, but she always loved snakes. Loved to study them, their toxins, their predatory habits, their physiology... She believed that some of the natural capabilities that they had could be used to enhance the human body. After using this theory to write her thesis, she graduated herself with perfect grades. Her text and theories reached the ears and eyes of important scientists very fast. After that, her importance and fame as a researcher only grew even faster. That was until she discovered the project HYBRID. As an ophiologist, it was only natural for her to want to enter in the project. But once inside, she lost everything. The serum was incomplete, faulty. Together with the mutations, it also gave her cancer. Upon knowing that, her world fell apart. She had just lost everything. Depressed and filled with hate, Naeemah could only think in vengeance, she wanted the ones who injected her with that serum to suffer the same thing she was suffering. People usually say that when you reach rock bottom, you can only look up, and if you look up you will see light. That was what happened with Naeemah. The name of this light was Todd Buchanan. His sense of humour, his joviality helped her to overcome the depression. She saw in him someone who could support her, someone who was going through the exact same thing, but she also saw that under the jokes, under all the apparent joviality, he was not happy. Todd took her out of depression, and now, Naeemah thought that it was her responsibility to help him be happy. Even if their opinions were different, Todd believing in justice and Naeemah believing in revenge, the feelings between them grew stronger with each day that passed. The love that they had for each other was the only thing that kept both of them afloat. Even with her days counted, Naeemah choose to dedicate the rest of her days to be with her true love.

An impeccably white skin, long legs that often attract the gazes of men and a beautiful red make her look almost like a porcelain doll. But looks can be deceiving, and on Aimée`s case, this couldn't be more accurate. Her fragile looks hide powerful and flexible muscles, thanks to being raised as a dancer and acrobat. Experienced eyes may see behind her apparent fragility, but for most people she is just a delicate and beautiful rose.

On the other hand, the nature of this weapon is so dangerous that it could literally mean dismemberment or death if used by those who don't have enough skill. She usually carries it wrapped in a red silk cloth to disguise it as only a common hoop she uses to dance.

[*] Armed: Unique style using her signature weapon, it uses complex circular movements making use of her entire body. [/list] [/indent][/indent] [color=gray][indent][sub]P E R S O N A L[/sub][hr][/indent][/color] [indent][indent][b]Hobbies/Pastimes:[/b] Travelling, dancing/performing, reading, sightseeing & etc. [/indent][/indent] [indent][indent][b]Talents/Skills:[/b] [list] [*] [hider=Stanza] By changing her stance, she is able to support her allies with dances. Her attacks are weaker while dancing as she needs to respect the rhythm and flow of the given dance even when attacking. While she retain most of her mobility, any other sudden movement that forces her to break the rhythm of said dance will break the stanza and its effects will stop, since they are only active while she is performing. These dances can be either beneficial to her allies or detrimental to her enemies (although only one dance can be performed at a given time) [hider=Dances] [b]Bravura & Allegro[/b] – A set of animated and lively dances that bolster friendly units morale, invigorating them. [b]Tragedia & Terore[/b] – A set of darker, more chaotic dances which can demoralize enemies, causing fear, insecurity and intimidating them.[/hider] [/hider] [*] [b]Fortissimo[/b] – Using her entire body's weight and mass to build her weapon's momentum, it can deal very devastating attacks without compromising her agility. Her enemies often get surprised by the force behind her agile and fast attacks. Additionally, due to the nature of her weapon, she must use her entire body to wield it and as such cannot carry a shield, an off-hand weapon, wear any kind of armor (even boiled leather will weight her down). [*] [b]Crescendo[/b] – The unique circular motions needed to wield the weapon make it easier for her to parry or redirect incoming attacks. [*] [b]Accelerando[/b] – Her graceful movements hide powerful and flexible muscles which make her capable of performing very impressive acrobatic moves, giving her an uncanny agility and flexibility. Her complete lack of armor also contribute to this, making her a very difficult target to hit. [*] [b]Dal Niente, Al Niente[/b] With her mobility, enemy positions on the battlefield means nothing, as she can use her speed, dancing movements and footwork in a battle situation to confound her enemies, making them unable to predict where she will go or from where she will attack. [/list] [/indent][/indent] [color=gray][indent][sub]P E R S O N A L I T Y[/sub][hr][/indent][/color] [indent][indent] Aimée is very cheerful and happy. When there is a party, its almost certain she will be there dancing and being the center of attentions. At the same time, "Lala", how most people who know her by her performances, enjoys reading and unlike many people would think, is actually very intelligent and smart. Unlike her appearance, she is very independent and has strong opinions, definitely knows how to take care of her own and has a fiery temper. She may be a beautiful rose, but surely this rose has many thorns. [/indent][/indent] [color=gray][indent][sub]B I O G R A P H Y[/sub][hr][/indent][/color] Born and raised in a well known and very traditional itinerant troupe, the Bellerose, Aimée is used to never staying in one city for too long, she has been travelling her entire life. The more well known troupes can live very well, even without receiving too much money, as their presence in a town is always noted. Barons and important nobleman would always ask for them to present themselves at their properties, giving them food, shelter and presents. Some of the most traditional troupes (just like the Bellerose) prefer to receive presents as a payment rather than money as they don't give money too much value. "Bellerose" is the name that the members from the troupe adopted as their own. They treat each other just like family, which they basically are. Most of the first members, which formed the troupe, had no surnames or made the choice of leaving them behind. As the time went on, they became a family with actual blood ties. With the Bellerose troupe created, many of their members developed romantic interests for one another, due to living together, acting like a family & etc. As a result, many of them married and had kids with members of the own troupe. Being raised by actors, acrobats, dancers and storytellers Aimée was taught all those subjects, from acting to how to tell an interesting story and keep the people interested about it and of course, how to defend herself. Receiving the nickname "Lala" due to her fiery red hair and equally fiery temper, Lala grown and turned into a beautiful woman. Her agile and flexible body made her a perfect dancer and acrobat. Agile and gracious, she quickly became known. Her beauty and technique enchanted both men and women who watched her. She had the talent of brightening the mood of everyone with her dances. Nobody knew why, but her dances always had an unusual influence on people nearby. Some claim to have seem a weird birthmark faintly glowing under her clothes while she danced, but nobody knows for certain. When Aimée turned 18, she decided to open her wings. She wanted to travel alone, have her own experiences, learn new things. Most of the young Belleroses did that, it was almost a tradition to go on their own journey when they turned 18 and after the troupe recognizing they were ready, that they had learned everything they could with them. Some spent some years travelling then went back to living with the troupe when they felt ready, others spent their entire lives traveling, meeting with the troupe from time to time, enjoying their company then going out with the wind again. When a Bellerose visited the troupe, it was always a very happy occasion. There were always new stories to tell, some of them even brought their partners to present them to the family. Aimée received the ring blade from her mother, she was the only one who was able to wield it perfectly. The ring blade was the same weapon her mother used to dance and perform, beautiful to see, but extremely dangerous both for those nearby and for the wielder, its not only a hoop to be used in a dance, its a real and very dangerous weapon. Aimée was the only one that was deemed able to wield it, and as such, her mother passed it to her, teaching it everything she knew with it, from the complex dances to how to use it and her dance as a weapon. After one year she was now completely ready to travel alone. Every Bellerose knew how to fight really well, after all, the world isn't a nice place, and someone who lives travelling needs to know how to defend herself. There is a saying amongst those who know the Bellerose: "Never touch a rose without its consent, it doesn't matter how beautiful it may be." With this parting gift, Aimée, or "Lala" as she was commonly known started her journey in a way very fitting for a Bellerose: Without any specific destination in mind, instead, following only her heart and the wind.
