[center][h3]Powers[/h3] [i]Energy Ball[/i] - Lily can form a ball of energy in her hand and use it to throw at foes. She is only limited by her own energy level. When a person uses a power or exerts energy, their energy grows dim and they must recharge by sleeping/eating. The balls can be large or small but larger ones will deplete her energy reserve much faster. [i]Light of the World[/i] - Lily can glow. Yep, glowing angel. When she is emotional, a lot of times it will happen without her trying. She can also, when concentrating, concentrate the light to a specific part of her body like a finger or a hand. It's not much use save for lighting things up. The only side affect is that she pushes her energy around her and therefore can harm other dark beings around her. It's almost like an aura that damages and drains those with dark energies around her. She can and generally does dim her own energy by dampening it. She packs it in tight somewhere deep within her soul and it does next to no damage to those around her. She can also use this ability to hide herself by hiding her energy. She also has the ability to see the energies of other beings. She can only see what they are and their intents. She cannot discern personality or history and if they know how to hide it, she can't see it. When someone dies, she knows about it because an energy that was once there, died. [i]Healer's Touch[/i] - Lily can heal others through contact. She places her hands on the target and gives them some of her energy and in doing so heals them. But in doing so, she takes on the injuries of the person she heals. If she heals a cut, she gains a cut in the exact place of the person she healed. Meaning, she can't heal indefinitely or risk dying. [i]Holy Wind[/i] - When her wings are released, Lily can use them to blow 'Holy Wind' at her foes. It can be used to heal nearby Angelic or Holy beings quickly or it can be used to stun Demonic or unholy foes. This counts as using some of her energy and can deplete her reserve if she isn't careful with it. It is completely voluntary and she doesn't [i]always[/i] throw around Holy Wind willy nilly. [i]Water Whisperer[/i] - Lily can literally talk to water. Mind you, it can't talk back. It sends feelings back to her and tries it's best to communicate ideas. She simply asks it do something for her and it does, generally. Sometimes, it acts out on it's own and helps her. She has no real control over it and if someone that controls water comes along, their power will over ride hers even if the water is on her side. [h3]Weaknesses[/h3] [i]Fear[/i] - Lily Brightendale is a very fearful person. On the surface, it may seem like she is carefree and an idealist but deep down, she's scared to death of a lot of things. [indent]Death - Lily is scared of both dying herself and having her loved ones die. She knows where many of them will be headed after death, or at least she believes she does, and isn't ready for them to become a part of that world. She also knows that her death as an angel would be the end of it. What would... come after for her? Would anything?[/indent] [indent]Being Alone - Lily detests being alone. It probably scares her more than death. At least death is... something. Being alone leaves Lily with her thoughts and... her depression. When she is with people, she is at her best. To her friends, it may be annoying, but for Lily, it's life-saving. Carmen has been a big part of this, as her roommate and even if she does think of Lily as annoying and clinging, she still stays by Lily's side, something Lily truly appreciates.[/indent] [indent]Relationships - Lily has a fear of relationships ranging from close friendships to intimate ones. She fears falling in love again would break her to the point of no return. She has a hard time letting go and an even harder time forgetting. It's been years and she still thinks about Xanthus from time to time. That alone is enough to scare her to pieces.[/indent] [i]Caring and Heroic[/i] - Lily is both caring AND heroic, though the later bit is starting to wane. She is motherly and is willing to give up pretty much everything to help pretty much anyone. She's the definition of the nurse that heals both sides of the war. She can't bring herself to hate demons or angels anymore, she just wants it to stop. [i]Dark Energies/Magic[/i] - Dark Magics and Energies have a crippling affect on Lily. Too much of them can even kill her if she isn't careful. They drain her own energy much like two opposing forces that should never meet. Eventually, both she and the source of the energy will cease to be and she will die, as her soul was drained. There are no known ways to counter this affect. [i]Delay[/i] - Lily has a small delay when releasing her wings which are an embodiment of her soul. Recently, she has found that her wings have.. grown... Two more pair of wings have shown up though they are small still. She hasn't told anyone yet, for fear of what they might say, for fear of what it might mean. That... her part in this war between heaven and hell is much bigger than originally thought... Releasing Lily's wings takes about two minutes in total time to bring out and within that time, she is free to move around and do things as normal, however the concentration needs to stay uninterrupted or the process will revert. Once the wings are release, Lily can fly and even use them to blow 'Holy Wind' at foes, wind charged with Holy Energy. [h3]Personality[/h3] Kind to a fault, Lily is everyone's friend. She can be a little sarcastic and bitter at times but deep down she is very kind and loving. She loves to help others and see the happiness is brings them. Her only wish is to be wanted, to be needed by someone, anyone. She has changed quite a bit since her beginnings at Kalmaysia Academy and she's hoping that now that she has her powers back, she can continue living a normal, as one would call it, life. [h3]Background[/h3] Lily's story is long one. She was born and raised in England where she died at age 16, her only friend her neighbor, Xanthus, a demon. In Heaven, her father was Micheal and her mother named Melody. When creating humans, God had angered Lucifer and Lucifer planned to kill them all off, saying that they ruined God's image and name. Hearing of his plans, Micheal stops him by casting him out of heaven, a fallen angel. Angry and bitter, Lucifer builds up his strength and takes Micheal's place, taking his appearance and running Heaven his own way. His first order of business? Get rid of Micheal's family. Melody was first, and then Lily was sent to an academy. Eventually, she goes back to heaven, to be imprisoned while the love of her life, Xanthus, is killed. She then comes back, empty and broken. Xanthus is reborn, but no longer the same. She leaves him, though she still wears her engagement ring, and searches for a way to kill Lucifer. She finds one, but it entails her giving up her life, her Grace. She does so and is brought back as a human, her Grace gone. A year or so later, Lily has found her Grace again with the help on an Angel named Gabriel. He coaxed her into finding it on her own and now she is back to how she once was. But what could that mean for Lucifer? Is he really dead? It is really all over? Can Lily really get away with this, can she be so happy after losing so much? ...Lots of other things happened since then. It'll uhh... come through in IC. (She's my longest running character and has an immense history that is constantly changing...) [/center] She's still WIPsy. I'll fill out the weaknesses more a bit later. They exist and have been lain out before. I just get lazy after doing her CS so many times. :P
