Large red-yellow eyes and long pointed ears. Her long tunic is a sandy beige adorned with green leaves seemingly growing directly from her back. Along her legs is green moss, growing directly from her skin as well. On her feet are warm, well worn and padded cloth boots. Short messily chopped dark blue hair pokes out from under her wide brimmed hat. While she often wears a mask to scare the Kokiri for kicks, when she is on her own she goes without the mask. Stands at a height of 5’0” feet, roughly around the same height she was when she was Hylian. Terrible posture however has her dip to 4’10”. On her person she keeps a hand carved ocarina, meant to emulate the Fairy Ocarina. Tried and failed several times to steal her own from the fairies. While her trusty iron lantern helps to guide Kokiri and Hylian children deeper into the forest. Compelled by a drive to never be alone, knowing more was always merrier. .:: [color=Salmon]π•‹π•™π•–π•žπ•– π•Šπ• π•Ÿπ•˜ ::.[/color] [center][hider=Music] [color=salmon][i]β€œI only want someone to play with.”[/i][/color] [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1t8-_pI1-9Q[/youtube] [color=salmon][i]”You wanna fight?”[/i][/color] [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gg8_Fqnsx6o[/youtube] [color=salmon][i]β€œHe only comes β€˜round on my birthday, how curious.”[/i][/color] [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOYgWyZ4Qz8[/youtube] [/hider][/center] .:: [color=Salmon]β„™π•–π•£π•€π• π•Ÿπ•’π•π•šπ•₯π•ͺ[/color] ::.

Why do you smell so funny?”[/i][/color] Jillian is a mixed bag for a trickster. Not one to pass up the opportunity to really get someone good with a well built prank. Loves to tease the Kokiri, they are typically difficult to trick, as they are more privy than most to the nature of Skullkids. Jillian usually settles for scaring them with her scary mask. Giggler to an almost annoying degree. Jillian often challenged fellow Skullkids to just about any sort of competition. Ocarina playing, puppet stringing races, who can jump higher, climb the highest tree, etc. You name it and Jillian steps up to the challenge every time. Her pranking and otherwise free spirited nature helps her wiggle out of most trouble, she often never apologizes for her actions as she doesn’t see much point to insincere apologies, especially regarding her nature. Despite her chaotic nature and pull toward being a troublemaker, she is very curious, unaware it is a trait she retained from her past life as a Hylian child. Much like a child, she has no tact in her line of questions, ranging from innocent hows to incredibly rude whys. .:: [color=Salmon]π”Ήπ•’π•”π•œπ•€π•₯𝕠𝕣π•ͺ[/color] ::. Jillian was born and raised in Ordon Village, an only child. One fateful morning, Jillian and her family decided to take one of the many regular trips into the forest to see the Deku Tree. Her parents would gather loose materials for crafting figurines, tools and other such amenities to sell in local general store. They were quite skilled at woodwork, both coming from long family lines of craftsmanship. Jillian would enter the Kokiri Forest, give thanks to the Deku Tree and the spirits of the forest on behalf of her family. Thanking them with fresh bread or fresh Lon Lon Ranch cream. Their family wholly believed they must always pay back for the livelihood the forest provided them. With the frequent trips Jillian was aptly warned by her parents to ignore the troublemakers of the forest, who were frustratingly vague when she asked for answers. Unfortunately, her curiosity willed her to follow the giggles and flute playing into the Lost Woods. She assumed she could finally meet a shy Kokiri spirit, the bright lantern light was mesmerizing as it was inviting. What felt like an eternity of time passing Jillian was lost to the maze of the forest looking for the source of the music. The sun dipped and plunged the Lost Woods into darkness along with Jillian’s chances of returning home. She was never seen again. Unknown amounts of time passed, her memories fogged and she woke up in the Lost Woods… different. Her new body, new life, and no clear memories to tell her she was any different in the first place. Her mother and father however, were distraught by her disappearance. Their only daughter being taken by the forest, her father assumed their tributes were never enough to satisfy the forest. Determined to find her, he struck out on his own without a goodbye. He spent days wandering the Lost Woods, fighting only with an old family sword that belonged to his grandfather. Through monsters and genuinely terrifying obstacles, he fought for his survival as the days turned. Eventually after many long nights, the forest overwhelmed him. Much like his daughter, he became lost, transforming into a Stalfos. Retaining only a little memory, the Stalfos would unknowingly seek out his daughter on her birthday every year. Never knowing why the date really meant so much to him, the Stalfos regardless somehow always managed to find the same Skullkid. Given a new life and deep connection to the Lost Woods, she spent years exploring them and learned every inch of it. She learned how to expertly climb trees, as well as trying and failing many times before succeeding in emulating what her fellow Skullkids could do to build wooden puppets. It wasn’t until an unwitting mage entered the Lost Woods hoping to study the nature of the woods, cleverly thinking to leave a trail of string. A terrible opportunist, Jillian messed with the string looping their trail in circles. When the forest took the mage, Jillian scoured through their things looking for something to hold her interest. She found a spellbook. Having a low literacy level, it did take time for Jillian to understand the spellbook but it contained summoning spells. Now over a hundred years later, the spellbook is her most prized possession having memorized every page and every word. Her long life was spent primarily within the Lost Woods. Luring children into the forest, spending time with other Skullkids, pranking the Deku Tree and Kokiri. She absolutely hated spending time by herself, often sought out company in one form or another. For some reason unknown to her, deep in the marrow of her bones she felt an urgent need for companionship. Like a hole that needed to be filled, foggy memories reminding her she once had a family. The strange Stalfos that visited every year, stranger still, made that hole in her heart very sore. On occasion she did venture out to visit places like Castle Town and other small villages in Hyrule, being gone for months at a time while travelling, letting the wind take her where she pleased. When Ganondorf returned from the Sacred Realms, Jillian was abroad. The destruction he left in his wake exiting the forest was so thorough she would have surely perished had she remained. Upon her return, the Kokiri and surviving Skullkids were working to restore the burnt and desecrated forest. The dark magic exerted by the demon king tainted the creatures, they became increasingly vicious to even local residents. Her birthday came and passed for the year but the Stalfos was nowhere to be found after Ganon’s exit. Such a regular presence to suddenly disappear, it unsettled her greatly. Regardless, Jillian still frequently summoned the creatures and her puppets to keep her company, exerting some level of control over their actions, while she had some difficulty controlling monsters not native to the Lost Woods. While the Lost Woods were still busy recuperating from Ganon’s exit, Jillian’s nights were filled with other worries. A voice willing her to Kakariko Village to enjoy the Hero of Time festival. Only vaguely aware of the stories connected to such a festival, very aware of Ganondorf's involvement in it. Perhaps she could learn something to help restore the forest. Only joining the festivities would be the only way to find out. .:: [color=Salmon]π•Šπ•œπ•šπ•π•π•€/π•‹π•’π•π•–π•Ÿπ•₯𝕀[/color] ::. [b](MS) Summoning Magic (8)[/b] [list] Consistent practice of the summoning spells found in her stolen spellbook. Jillian is able to summon creatures and puppets to come to her aid. While she does like to summon creatures found exclusively in the Lost Woods, she is able to summon just about any she wants to.[/list] [b](FS) Evasion (7)[/b] [list]Skullkids are rather dexterous creatures, light on their feet and quick to move. Jillian is no exception. Having little strength to her small body, she relies solely on evasion during a fight allowing her summoned monsters or puppets to land the appropriate hits.[/list] [b](PS) Lost Item Finder (9)[/b] [list] Years spent helping strangers find their lost items in exchange for often eccentric payment. She treats it as a game, uncannily good instincts to where to look for lost things. While she is tricky to deal with, being clear in what you are looking for will guarantee its return.[/list] [b] (SS) Climber (6)[/b] [list] Great at climbing trees, scaling rock faces, can climb just about anything when she puts her mind to it.[/list] [b](PS) Decent Ocarina Player (4)[/b] [list] Time on her side she has had plenty of practice playing her own handcrafted ocarina. Though to some sensitive ears, her ocarina crafting skills need some work.[/list] [b](PS) Semi Literate (3) [/b][list] Able to read and understand her spellbook has boosted her literacy levels considerably but she is hardly a scholar.[/list] [b] (SS) Forager (7)[/b] [list] Not much is needed to sustain a Skullkid, though she is strictly vegetarian. Forages her own food like berries and roots. Able to recognize poisonous from edible.[/list] [b](PS) Crafty (6)[/b] [list] Jillian is quite skilled with her hands, able to build small tools and other such things from raw materials. Nothing to sniff at in comparison to her parents but retaining some natural inclination to craft, carve and whittle woodwork.[/list] .:: [color=Salmon]𝔾𝕠𝕒𝕝𝕀[/color] ::. Quietly she hopes to discover a faster way to help heal the forest and return it to normal. Truly the loneliness was prevalent in every point in her life. Sure she had great fun with her fellow Skullkids but they were as flighty and unpredictable as she was. Never around for long before abandoning her for more interesting activities. Ultimately she is driven now more than ever to find out the connection she has with the Stalfos, his disappearance in line with Ganon’s return could only mean certain trouble. As a self proclaimed troublemaker, she was bound to follow it. .:: [color=Salmon]π•€π•Ÿπ•§π•–π•Ÿπ•₯𝕠𝕣π•ͺ[/color] ::.
