[hider=Iris Aderast] [center] [color=9990bf] [img] https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/319677679664234499/716842630012469298/unknown.png [/img] [h1]Iris Aderast[/h1] Gender / Preferred Pronouns: Female. She/Her Age: 17 Birthday: June 10th Sexuality: “Don’t ask.” Personality : Iris is what someone in their 50s might call “weird” or “not right.” Putting aside the fact that she’s entirely uninterested in the opinions of most males she’s met, she also has a weird way of saying things. She’s the kind of person who would say “I don’t look at the future, I look sideways” instead of saying she’s happy with where she is. Iris, for all the odd energy she has surrounding her, is still a nice person, just not overly sweet and joyful. She’s got this atmosphere going on that could only be described as slow. Iris doesn’t move at the world’s pace, but at her own. People are safe around her, and she likes to make sure that doesn’t change, whether she has to do it magically or otherwise. Iris is easily described as just a chill girl, but she is not afraid to get in someone’s face and be aggressive, and she’s more than willing to give somebody a black eye when they cross the wrong lines. It’s rare to see Iris smile, but it doesn’t mean she isn’t in a good mood, she’s just off like that, at least, that’s how she’d put it. Appearance: A denim jacket, boots, and tank tops are at least half of the things this girl wears, and I it doesn’t set off the gaydars of some people, their gaydars are off. Her dark brown hair is slightly curly, and goes down to her waist in the back, and down to her shoulders in the front. And it is a mess. A big mess, which is why she always keeps most of it behind her head. Overall, she looks like she puts just a little bit of effort into her looks, but that’s just like her, unworried about appearances, unworried about impressing people. She also has a habit of drawing on her arms, stuff like clouds or random dots, when she’s bored. Biography: Iris has never met her family and does not even know if any of them are alive. Though she's searched for information about them or their possible whereabouts, she's heard nothing of their doings or deeds in the magical community. Either way, it doesn’t matter to her, or never did. She had a family already, the coven. They taught Iris everything she knew about ghosts, magic, and vampires, and everything in between. She grew up making magical tools to help others or herself, rings made of twine and glass that focus magic energy, or repel monsters. Bracelets that help you heal faster. She was good at that kind of thing. Magic and her adopted family were all she ever knew. That’s all she ever needed in her life. It was simple. But before now, she was just a wee little baby witch, who some of the elder witches took care of. She would spend most of her days running around the house grabbing flowers and learning to make charms, and the older witches saw that she was pretty good at it so they brought her up learning about it more than most magic, she obviously learned the things they’re all expected to know, but charms were particularly involved in her learning, so now she waits to become a fully fledged witch, not knowing for sure what that will entail. She isn’t sure if there is a test she needs to pass, or if she’s already passed them, but she’s ready for it. Notable Rumors: Given her newfound magic interests, some people think she’s studying necromancy. She isn’t, though. Greatest Fear: The thing that scares Iris the most is doing nothing. Things try to take hold of magic powers all the time, and the thought of not being able to stop that, being powerless, is terrifying. Magic: [hider=Charms and Potions] Iris grew up specializing in creating magical “tools” usable in a variety of ways, she can use these things to help heal someone, or give them a boost to their magic. Need healing? She’s got jars full of healing plants. Need to get really strong? She’s got charms for punching things. These two things tend to go hand in hand, since they’re created in very similar ways. It also comes in handy with her new interest she found. [/hider] [hider=Golemism] That’s just what she calls it, but lately Iris has been studying the idea of giving motion to inanimate creations, binding sticks and branches together to make a human shape, and supplying that with magic energy. She calls them golems. She physically can’t make them as smart as a human, but she could make them smart enough to preform tasks, like a trained animal. The size of the constructs, or golems as she calls them, appears to be meaningless regarding magic energy. Their intelligence is what affects their strength. Something smart enough to do high school math might last a week or two unchecked, but something with the mind of a dog could last a month. It’s easy to make a golem’s body, just sticks and vines for bones, and a magic “heart” to power it. These creatures aren’t exactly “alive” but they show behavior similar to a living creature. They’re not sentient, they can’t think for themselves, they’re essentially machines made of magic that Iris can control using a charm specifically designed to link her to any golem she wants to talk with.

She’s never heard of anyone studying this kind of magic before, so she went in blind. The book is full of heart making methods, charm communication involving the golem, and the shape of some golems. It looks like a nice sketchbook that you’d find at Walmart. No lines on the pages. The inside flap has a set of “rules” Iris made out of anticipation. If any of the more authoritative witches were to feel concerned with Iris’ work. They could read this book and figure out what she’s up to. There are also other things in this book like less human shapes for golems, like cats or birds. 1) “Don’t use bones, that’s just mean.” 2) “Human intelligence is impossible, and probably dumb” 3) “Golems aren’t witches.” [/hider] [/hider] Other: 9990bf [/color] [/center] [/hider] Here come dat bitch oh shit what up
