There are very few people that she considers friends however, and even fewer that she truly trusts. She's open and easy to read, she doesn't try to hide her thoughts or emotions at all, but she can and will lie if she thinks it will spare someone else any amount of pain. She is slow to anger, and even slower to forgive, for if she truly loses patience with someone, she believes that no matter what they do next they aren't worthy of her kindness anymore. She is energetic, always doing something with movement or words. She enjoys the company of others, and relishes debate and conversation. [color=696969][b]Faction: [/b][/color] Taxis (hopeful) [color=696969][b]Pet: [/b][/color] None [color=696969][b]Exp: [/b][/color] She's been training since she was 20 in the hopes of joining the Taxis guild. Many hours spent on practice have made the two spells she knows more than enough than she needs in terms of her magic abilities, and twice as much time spent using and practicing with her bow have made her an incredibly accurate shot. She has been able to use all of her blood-given abilities since she was born, but it took time to get certain ones, such as mind reading and telekinesis as well as her ability to manipulate plants, under control. [color=696969][b]Spells: [/b][/color] [color=BC8F8F][i]Pause[/i] - Stops time in the space between one heartbeat and the next. This only affects a 15 meter radius around her, and the bubble of paused space moves as she does with her at the center at all times. She herself is also 'paused' while this spell is in effect; her heart doesn't beat and she has no need to breathe, and she cannot bleed while pause is in effect, but if she is wounded while in pause the wound will begin to affect her as soon as the spell is dropped. Gravity still works and inanimate moving objects from outside the bubble are unaffected if they are entering it, however all things that were in the bubble to start with are frozen until she moves away from them or drops the spell. The spell lasts until it is dropped or until Alexis runs out of energy.[/color] [color=D2B48C][i]Light's Blessing[/i] - Uses any nearby or ambient light (within a radius of 30 meters of her) to energize a person, causing any wounds to heal either immediately for more minor wounds, or up to 500% faster for major wounds, for so long as the spell is in effect. The spell lasts until Alexis runs out of focused light energy. She cannot cure poisons, or do anything to revive the dead, as energizing someone only accelerates their bodies' natural healing process.[/color] [color=696969][b]Abilities/Powers: [/b][/color][list] [*] Bright Light Resistance [*] Soul Detection [*] Psychic Detection [*] Mental Communication [*] Mind Reading [*] Astral Projection [*] Telekinesis [*] Force Field [*] Plant Manipulation [*] Plant Energy Absorption [*] *Natural Glow (Not very bright, but noticeable in dim light. In total darkness she can clearly light about a half foot radius around her.) [*] *Light as a Feather (Gravity doesn't weigh on her as heavily. She's not very physically strong or dense, she floats in water even when weighted down by her clothes and armor, though with them on she seems more like a normal person. She can't do anything like jump higher than other people- that would require more strength than she has.) [*] *Speedy (due to being as light as she is, she can move rather quickly, and naturally does everything just a little faster than everyone else.) [*] Needs to absorb sunlight for at least two hours a day in order to have a normal amount of energy [*] [u]Physically[/u] weaker than most other blood types (She does not have claws or wings or protective scales. She is soft and fragile and she also doesn't have much physical strength- but her endurance is very high. She is also more susceptible to poison/illness than other Bloods are.) [/list] [color=696969][b]Weapons: [/b][/color] The bow pictured in her outfit above, and a dagger she keeps hidden on her person at all times. [color=696969][b]History: [/b][/color] Alexis was the eldest child in her family, who lived on the edge of the forests outside the capitol of the Vrondi territory. She would go into the city almost every day to study and learn what she could about healing, ascension, and magic. She's learned a few spells, but can only use two of them to any real ability right now. She's been diligent in her practice and training since she was 20 years old, when she decided that she wanted to use her life to help as many others as she could. She had a few friends who shared her thirst for knowledge and her desire to do good in the world, and about 3 years ago they all decided to travel the land together in order to better train their abilities. As of a little less than a year ago now, she is the only survivor of that group. The others, all her friends, have died in one way or another, leaving her alone. Still, she focuses on her goals while holding them in her memories. Despite the horrors she has seen in the world and the tragedies she's faced, Alexis continues on. She's still young, especially when compared to any other Descended she knows. She takes the world in stride and hopes to one day ascend herself. [color=696969][b]Trivia: [/b][/color] Likes: Talking to people, expressive colors (her favorite is red), long walks in the sunlight, and trying new things. Dislikes: Complete darkness, humid air, people who openly show that they have no care for others at all, and underground places. Fears: Small enclosed spaces, ghosts (real or fake), and uncontrolled flames. Deepest Desire: To stay up all night, just watching the night sky until dawn. One peaceful night. [hider= Her Dagger] Made for her by a friend who died shortly after. It's nothing special, except for the sentimental value it has to her. She doesn't like to speak about it or the person who gave it to her. She only uses it in emergencies, as she prefers to use her bow when possible.

She likes to keep her hair short.) [hr] [color=ffbbbb][b]Name: [/b][/color] Lexi Emaura [color=ffbbbb][b]Age: [/b][/color] 26 [color=ffbbbb][b]Relationship: [/b][/color] She is Alexis’ eldest younger sister, the second of Giovanna's (their mother's) children, and the elder of her twin brother Leith by about half an hour. [color=ffbbbb][b]Status: [/b][/color] Alive and well [color=ffbbbb][b]Blood%: [/b][/color] 80% Sol, 20% Seraphim [color=ffbbbb][b]Gender: [/b][/color] Female [color=ffbbbb][b]Sex Preference: [/b][/color] Straight [hr] [color=ffbbbb][b]Personality: [/b][/color] She's soft-spoken (when she's not at work) and actually a little shy around strangers (again, unless she's working) -but around her family or friends she's loudmouthed and rude, and she could probably give a sailor a run for his money in a cussing contest. You can usually catch her staring off into space or humming songs and random melodies throughout the day if she's not really doing anything else, otherwise she's always focused 100% on whatever task is at hand.

She lives in her own home in the city, not too far from the bar. She lives with her Fiance. [/hider]
