[list][*][u][b]Name:[/b][/u] Sylphie Sorvost, commonly known as Death Angel Sylphie, Slaughter Princess Sylphie, Bloody Avenger Sylphie, and perhaps more flatteringly Princess of Victory Sylphie
[*][u][b]Appearance:[/b][/u] [url=https://www.deviantart.com/vitavitaar/art/Sylphie-Sorvost-809405552]Sylphie is pale, with black hair. She has one gold eye as a symbol of her divinity, the other being red.[/url] Physically, she is a petite child of no more than nine or ten.
[*][u][b]Age:[/b][/u] 320
[*][u][b]Race:[/b][/u] Demigod(Human)
[*][u][b]Abilities:[/b][/u] As a demigod, Sylphie is immortal. While she can be killed by violence, she does not age, and her body is capable of recovering from grievous injury. Even lost limbs and organs can be regenerated, though severing all her limbs will incapacitate her and it is far easier for her to heal if they are simply reattached. She is immune to disease and poisons do not affect her(though she can still get drunk, and sometimes does in spite of her appearance). The most surefire way to kill her is completely destroying her head, as even decapitation is not necessarily a guarantee. Additionally, she is far stronger and faster than her appearance would suggest, easily overpowering far larger individuals with considerable ease. Key to her fighting style is Sylphie's ability to manifest a huge sword, longer than she is tall. It is considered the symbol of Aphei's Left Seat, the Avenging Blade that Slaughters the Wicked. It will never bend or break or lose its edge, and can freely be summoned and dispelled by Sylphie at will. It possesses the capacity to harm things with no physical form, cutting through spirits just as easily as it can cut through flesh, and is a divine weapon that burns demonic entities on contact. Sylphie can also freely call this weapon to her side if it is ever separated from her. She is also capable of sensing evil, detecting it just as easily as most people could smell a freshly-prepared meal. Sylphie can also perform magic, chiefly anti-evil wards(as well as protective wards in general) and offensive curses projected from the edge of her blade in the form of tightly-wound balls of mana. In that way, her sword also functions as a catalyst for spells. Sylphie can also serve as a guide to the afterlife for Aphei's faithful, though it is not her chief function. She is also revitalized and strengthened by shows of faith towards Aphei.
[*][u][b]Skills:[/b][/u] Sylphie possesses a surprisingly wide and in-depth knowledge of medicinal herbs and their use, though she rarely puts it into practice now as she feels there are others more suited to the job then herself. Beyond some very basic skills, Sylphie became a demigod at a young enough age so that she lacks many practical skills.
[*][u][b]Personality:[/b][/u] Sylphie's personality can be described as somewhat arrogant. She believes quite firmly that there are an extreme few who can best her in combat, and she has the utmost confidence in her capability in battle. She is also relatively polite and talkative however, though she does enjoy teasing others and playfully mocking them whenever given the opportunity(she frequently feels she is given the opportunity). Fittingly due to her position as a Demigod under Aphei, Goddess of Righteous Victory, Sylphie also possesses a strong sense of justice. She does not tolerate threats to the innocent and will prioritize their protection(indeed, victory is not righteous if it allows for the deaths and sacrifice of innocent people). That being said, on the opposite end of Sylphie's strong sense of justice is her utterly remorseless killing of those deemed wicked. Those who commit evil acts or beings that possess an evil nature receive no mercy. Genuine repentence and remorse may stay her hand, but Sylphie serves a deity whose sphere also encompasses the Slaughter of the Wicked as well. Sylphie does indeed love combat, victorious combat where those who do evil deeds are cut down over and over again. The scent of the blood of the wicked almost seems to drive her into a frenzy, and the more the enemy perishes, the more she kills them, the closer she comes to victory, the more excited she becomes. Indeed, she enters a state that can only be described as ecstasy as she claims victory and slaughters those who do evil. This is both due to her nature as a demigod of Aphei and her own personality prior to her ascension.
[*][u][b]History:[/b][/u] Over three hundred years ago, Sylphie was a girl living in a small village with her younger sister and their parents. In training to become a healer, she learned much about medicinal herbs from her father, and soon became adept at recognizing which had the most potent effects. As she grew older, she developed a wide knowledge of such herbs, and was well on her way to becoming the town's foremost healer when she entered adulthood. But when she was still a child, her hometown came under attack by a raiding force that crushed the local guard, murdered Sylphie's parents, and took her, her sister, and many other children to be broken into slaves. It was a long time before she was able to do more then cry, but eventually she began to plot to take revenge on the raiders and free her sister and the other children. Convincing the raiders that she had already broken down, she became their favorite serving girl, allowing her to eventually access their mead. Using her knowledge of herbal medicine, she drugged the entire camp...

And, one by one, killed them all with their own weapons. Methodically, without sparing a single life, she butchered each and every one of them in their sleep. She was covered in blood when she freed the other slaves, and after reaching the nearest town she decided to continue as she had been. To take revenge not only for her parents, but for the sake of all those who the raiders had hurt, to free those they had taken as slaves. She found two more camps after this, and repeated the same process. Drugging the invaders through their alcohol, killing them in their sleep, and freeing their prisoners. It was on the fourth time, however, that she was caught, and captured. Threatened with a fate far worse then death, Sylphie was unable to escape. All she could do was repeat a short prayer to Aphei, the Goddess of Righteous Victory and the Slaughter of the Wicked, that she had heard from her father once before.

"[i]May justice be done upon them, so that they might never harm another innocent soul.[/i]"

But then, she heard a voice in the back of her mind. Aphei had responded. She had been watching Sylphie, as she killed the raiders who were murdering and enslaving their way through the land.

She offered Sylphie the chance to become a demigod. One of her Pillars. Sylphie accepted, and her body was flooded with divine power.

Moments later, the entire camp of raiders had been destroyed, every single one laying dead and their prisoners freed. But she didn't stop there. Sylphie slaughtered the entire invasion force, killing her way through their armies until they were all either dead or fled. From that point onwards, Sylphie became a figure that punished the wicked for the sake of the innocent. Even during the more recent conflict with the Volstanian Empire, she served this purpose and was one of the heroes selected to be sealed and reawakened later...
[*][u][b]Other:[/b][/u] As a demigod, Sylphie is one of the Four Pillars of Aphei. As is customary for the gods in general, mortals are selected to serve as representatives, ascended to a state of demigodhood. In Aphei's case, these are her four Pillars. Sylphie is the Left Seat, also known as the Pillar of the East, reflecting Aphei's aspect as an avenger most strongly. The whereabouts of the other three Pillars are currently unknown...[/list]
