She prefers to keep to weak alcohol While being on the run she is not concerned about people finding out that she is a noble, or what happened in her past; she just doesn't like to talk about it with people that will end up leaving her behind. Her pet Aikakos is always nearby. [b]Appearance [/b] Eyes: Light blue Hair: long and shaggy, black with blue strands Lenght: 1,70cm [quote]“Don`t get attached to anyone. Every living being will eventually either die or stab you in the back.”[/quote] [b]| N a m e: |[/b] Jonah Vardaman [b]| Alias|Nickames|Titles: |[/b] [b]Alias:[/b] Cayden Vance [b]Nickname:[/b] None. She ignores anyone that is trying to give her one. [b]Title:[/b] Lady (not used ever since she was kicked out from home. [b]| G e n d e r: |[/b] Biological gender: Female [b]| A g e: |[/b] 17 years old [b]| R a n k: |[/b] D-rank. [b]| Guild Membership Status: |[/b] Been member of Winter`s Blade for half a year, keeping a low profile to prevent her parents from contacting her. Cayden enjoys her life as Cayden, the loner that does everything by herself without any extra help. She respects the rules of the guild and makes sure to live by them. Is known as Cayden. Despite preferring solo work, Cayden makes sure to work in a group to put the guild in the good spotlight and make people more willing to Winter`s Blade with their issues. [b]| Guild Seal Location: |[/b] The right side of the neck. Color: Dark indigo. [b]| Personality: |[/b] She keeps herself neutral when it comes to other people, but keeps an eye on what they do. Cayden loves sarcasm and can be easily mistaken for being rude or someone that really dislikes you. Despite her bitter attitude and loner-lifestyle, Cayden enjoys a good company even if she won't always be actively speaking with them. Listening and watching what others do amuse her as far as she isn't dragged into immature things like brawls created for the sake to satisfy someone's ego. [b]| History: |[/b] Growing up in a household where shadow magic was seen as sinful, Cayden has learned only one thing; that her magic is bad. Her religious parents dislike and distrust in her and her abilities, as well as the magic that was part of her, made Cayden dislike it as well, and eventually led her to hate it. Her sister was the only one accepting her as she was and once she was out of the picture, Cayden lost the only positive force in her life. After being thrown out by her parents, Cayden took that as confirmation that her type of magic was making her different, but not in a good way. This is one of the reasons why Cayden is very cautious when using her abilities and prefers to not speak about it, just like she has been raised by her parents that made her magic a secret for everyone, pretending that she didn't have one. Working on your own without a guild to back you up can be easily seen as being an unofficial guild or even worse, a rogue mage. She heard rumors about a new guild nearby called Winter`s Blade. Since it was new, the risk of being found by someone from her past was minimal. Her new life as a guild mage gave her needed the confidence to live on her own as well as someone she sees as her own dysfunctional family. [b]| Magic: |[/b] Uses shadow magic that allows her to use shadows to her advantage. Her magics strength depends on where the shadows are created and by what.if the shadows she is using are created by trees, the shadows she is using will get strengthened by water-attacks but will be weak against fire attacks. She can't either use all shadows around her; how many shadows she can use and how it depends on where she is, how strong she is and her current mood. The shadows she is using always create a slime-like blob with its own mind that she can command. However, its strength and willingness to fight depends on Cayden; if she at any time loses trust in the fight or worse, in herself, the shadows will feel betrayed and angered by being useless for something pointless and attack Cayden instead. If Cayden uses a too big amount of shadows that is beyond her physical and mental strength, the blob may end up killing/or seriously hurting her instead. The shadows she is wielding do not respond well to someone that they considered weaker than them. Another risk is that the shadow, instead of attacking her, may end up going rogue and attack those that are nearby. These risks are one of the few reasons why Cayden is keeping her magical skills on lower levels and doesn't try to increase them. [b]| Strengths and Weakness: |[/b] + Good at stealth and blending in with crowds + Used to rely on stealth first and magic later + Her pet Akakios keeps her calm and helps her concentrate on her tasks + Fools entertain her, but only as far as they don't get in her way. + When she is alone, she likes to sing. It's something that she did as a kid, and it helps her to keep her memories of her sister intact. + Despite her dislike of others, she is respectful and willing to follow rules laid out by others. - Distrustful of others. Cayden has zero expectations to people actually staying around her for long periods of time. If you disappear, she won't be surprised. - Mood swings, with sometimes prevent her from using her magic. - Not too confident in her ability to handle her own magic well, so she is keeping her skills at a low level. Too insecure to train them up to have more power. - Cayden is very distrustful of others, but at the same time missing a friend to hang out with. Her pride stops her from giving up her loneliness, and loneliness is making her more and more bitter. - She doesn't do well when she is separated from her pet Akakios. [b]Pet[/b] [hider=My Hider] [b]Name: [/b] Akakios [b]Color:[/b] Dark blue and light grey [b]Species:[/b] some kind of mutated lizard or snake...or something [b]Likes:[/b] Seafood, shiny stuff, eggs found in the wild, toys [b]Hates:[/b] dry areas, cold winter days (image goes here) A weird,lizard-snake looking thing. It loves water and to eat seafood, but does not need much to survive. Hisses and purrs like a cat, has long, agile body like a snake. Its teeth are sharp as small needles. Cayden doesn't know what this thing is, all she knows is that this little creature is her best friend. Found Akakios during a mission that was located near the coast and was supposed to get rid of this roaming “beast”. Once Cayden found out the beast was just some really weird but friendly creature, she offered her contractor to take him with her. Since the job was not finished as intended, Cayen refused to take any payment. Despite its big size, this creature is pretty friendly as long as you don't intentionally irritate it or make it feel threatened. Comparing to some snakes and lizards, its body is warm. [/hider] [b]| Miscs : |[/b] Cayden hates to use her magic. It was one of the reasons why she has been kicked out from her home, and being suspected for different random thefts that occurred in her home area. Bad things happen when Cayden loses her cool; when that happens, the shadows around her may end up go loose and poison people near her (Note: due to her low magical strength, the poison is not strong and won't kill you.But the poisoned person may get stomach flu-like symptoms…) (Sheet credited to Buddha(slight edits taken from Sanguine rose). [/hider] There, info done. Now to work on the images, didn't find any that fit so... I will just make my own XD
