[@Emma] understood! Oh, and would you look at this! I found this lovely CS just sitting here: [hider=Dee] [b]Appearance:[/b] [img]https://i.pinimg.com/originals/3f/b3/9f/3fb39f3a59515dbaeb0c5110cf27f90b.jpg[/img] [b]Full Name:[/b] [color=khaki]Dimitri Calazans[/color] [b]Nicknames/Alias/AKA:[/b] [color=khaki]Dee[/color] [b]Age:[/b] [color=khaki]25[/color] [b]Gender:[/b] [color=khaki]Male[/color] [b]DOB:[/b] [color=gold]Hatched beneath the Burrower's Moon[/color] (Aquarius)[color=gold], 1993[/color] [b]Occupation:[/b] [color=gold]In Between Jobs[/color] [b]Race:[/b] [color=khaki]Arachne[/color] [b]Hair Color:[/b] [color=brown]Brown[/color] [b]Eye Color:[/b] [color=blue]Blue[/color] [b]Height and Build:[/b] [color=khaki]Five feet tall, lean, and muscular. [/color] [b]Other Appearance:[/b] [color=khaki]His true form has four smaller, completely pitch-black eyes forming a semicircle above his main pair of eyes (which appear larger, and also are fully black). He has very large chelicerae, that extend down to his chest. He is covered with a reddish psuedo-exoskeleton covered with small dark hairs. And he has a small, tail-like abdomen hanging down behind his legs, as well as two extra pairs of arms (features which he keeps hidden from those who can see through glamours by often wearing a long coat).[/color] (Note to GM: I thought that a full exoskeleton brought up to humanoid scale would be far too OP. I hope that the liberties I have taken with his true form are acceptable. If not, just let me know and I will change it. But I want you to know that I have no intentions of trying to exploit the multiple pairs of arms thing, it just seemed too appropriate to the race for me to exclude it. Also, the eye pattern, reddish coloring, and large chelicerae are based on the Dysderidae family of spiders.) [b]History:[/b] [hider=Dee's Most Recent Journal Entry][i][color=gold] [right]3rd day of the Jumper's Moon, 2018[/right] I stayed with my mother, and sisters when dad first left us. My siblings and I were five years old at the time. He said he had to go make certain we all remained safe. I said I hated him, and that I hoped he never came back. I was lying to us both, and lucky for me he knew it. Mom was a traditionalist. Superstitious, and distrustful of other species. She didn't hate humans per se, but she wouldn't have understood how to be friendly with them either. I guess after a few thousand years you get set in your ways. I learned a lot from her though. She taught us all the old lore she knew. She taught us how to survive. And she encouraged my sister's to look after me, the way a human parent might encourage their male spawn to look after their female siblings. Then when we were almost 14, dad showed up again. He asked us if we wanted to come live among the humans with him since it was almost time for us to go out, and lead our own lives, anyway. Mom encouraged us. She said she never got this chance, and with the world changing these days, it could aid our survival. Circe, and I went. Mara, and Vesta stayed behind. And for the rest of our legally underage lives, Circe, and I lived with our dad, Thea, his human wife, and Abigail, her daughter from a previous marriage. We both found the humans completely weird at first. And hiding what we were was just Exhausting. But we got used to it all within the first year and a half. Even Dad never shared his true nature with them. And as far as they knew, he worked for a government contracted security firm. Dad told us that this is how vampires, and several other species live, and thrive. And that He learned about it as a Guardian. And that being a Guardian is how he met mom. We got some crazy stories when Thea and Abigail weren't around. I thought it was cool. But Circe fell in love with the idea. Our girls always love to be where the action is, I guess. She was training in Nowhere, studying to be a Guardian, when dad disappeared for real. I think she got somebody who was training her at the Gringore Auxiliaries to give up some sensitive information, because she stopped freaking out disturbingly quickly. Like someone had just hit a switch. Bam! Calm and deadly mode: on. I was coming down there to get her for a trip to see mom, and find out if she knew anything about it when I got a call from her. She told me mom couldn't help us, but she had a lead. But she said I had to stay in town with Thea, and Abigail to make certain they remained safe while she was gone. I said I loved her, and that I hoped she came back with him soon. I wasn't lying this time, and luckily for us both, she knew it.[/color][/i] [/hider] [b]Family/Relationships:[/b] [color=khaki]Arete: Mother. Lives in isolation in the woods of Pennsylvania.
