[color=FF7777][b]Gender:[/b][/color] Female

[color=FF7777][b]Ship role:[/b][/color] Engineer

[color=FF7777][b]Appearance:[/b][/color] The first thing one notices about Tally is that she’s very tall, even among men of her race. The second thing one might notice is that she’s absolutely ripped, though she tends to keep most of her muscles covered under a large gray coat and an old red scarf when she’s not working. Under that, she wears a plain white undershirt and a well-worn pair of blue jeans, a tool never far from her belt. Other than that, her features are rather fair, such as her pale skin and light blonde hair that tend to end up colored by various forms of dirt and grime. Her brown eyes always manage to shine through, though. She’s got an impressive set of large brown horns, which she’s rather proud of.

[color=FF7777][b]Personality:[/b][/color] Tally, around those she doesn’t know, prefers to project the more intimidating exterior of the gruff, silent type. She’s bigger and stronger than just about everyone she meets and she knows it. She’s someone who likes to think, though, and her interests tend to lean towards more intellectual pursuits. She’s happy to talk to those she likes, maybe even get loud and rowdy when she feels truly comfortable, though if she feels bothered or annoyed by someone she’ll just as easily switch back to glares and single-word sentences.

[color=FF7777][b]Background:[/b][/color] Tally grew up in Mehrnez, working in factories to support her family pretty much from the second she was physically able. Which was very young; she grew like a weed. It wasn’t too long before she was bigger than all her superiors, which prompted her to start thinking. It was a good way to pass the time.

In her teens, when she got her Pyxis, and people started treating her as something slightly more important than a nice pair of arms, she began thinking even more. There was something distressing about it, working and working in a system that made countless arms for a taiva that was obsessed with wars it never fought, and for what? So she could change her name that she hated? Her body that she hated? And then just keep on working until she died? As soon as she had made those changes, she left to become an Empyrean. It was easier to think on an airship. It stood a better chance of being honest work, too, by Tally’s standards.

With time, she founded it to be a fulfilling calling. A lot of her old skills transferred over nicely, and she was still learning new things every day. It wasn’t long before she felt like a comfortable and experienced engineer, and when she got the chance to work on a ship as renowned as the Fornacis, it only made sense to say yes.

[color=FF7777][b]Pyxis skill list:[/b][/color]

[color=FF7777][b]-Hold:[/b][/color] When in range of a few feet, an object will maintain its current state; an ice cube won’t melt in the heat, a cup of coffee will not grow cold, a sword won’t dull its edge, a sheet of paper won’t dissolve in the water, an overheating machine will not explode, and a dying comrade won’t give out. The effect can be maintained for a long time on simple objects, but on more complex machinery and living people and creatures, the effect is far more taxing and limited, only lasting a few minutes on machinery and under one for a living creature.

[color=FF7777][b]-Progress:[/b][/color] When used in close proximity, a target will go through natural change and processes at ridiculous speeds. This can include chemical reactions, machine operations, plant growth, healing, or decay. This ability is similarly inefficient when used on complex machines and especially people, requiring a large amount of energy to heal anything more than a small cut.

[color=FF7777][b]-Pin:[/b][/color] A close target will become effectively frozen in time and space, resuming its earlier velocity and trajectory as soon as the spell ends. This spell is taxing to use on small objects and is very much impossible when it comes to a person or anything larger than one.

[color=FF7777][b]-Combust:[/b][/color] A powerful spell that creates forces of chaos and entropy so powerful that they result in small, localized explosions. She can either do this to an area that she is touching or to an object she is touching, turning it into a makeshift bomb. She usually prefers to use it to punch extra hard, though.[/hider]
