CONDITIONS STRINGS 3 on Valentina de Alcard 1 on Solarel 1 on Crescent 1 on Smokeless Jade Fires XP [X] [X] [X] [] [] [hider=Appearance]Mirror is a member of the water-loving Fisher clan, and has spent a large part of her life bouncing around various science stations at the fringes of Hybrasil space. Like the rest of her race, she is a feline humanoid with fur covering the majority of her body, except for her palms and the soles of her feet. Her fur is reminiscent of a snow leopard, a thick coat of cool white dotted all over with complicated black spotted patterns. Her face is unusually sharp and angled for a member of her family (who favor rounder overall head shapes), giving her something of a gaunt appearance that permanently makes her look like she's scowling. Her ears are large, wide, flat, and decorated with dozens of colorful piercings in an assortment of shaped and polished stones, none of which are particularly rare or valuable. The tip of her right ear is missing a large chunk from an old accident or childhood fight. Do not ask her which. Her eyes are a vibrant aquamarine, and she's had them treated several times with [Falling Star Serum] to give them a permanently flowing, liquid quality. The hair atop her head is even whiter than her fur, and she's carefully grown it out for over a decade. She lets it hang in thick sheets down to her butt most of the time, but enjoys tying feathers into it to add color. While piloting, she also wears a headband to keep it out of her face. Her jet black claw-nails are kept cut short and filed down to blunt nubs. Mirror's body is athletic and muscled as befits a typical pilot and guardian in her society, but there's a softness and a sort of fragility to the way she moves that along with her graceful and unsubtle curves that has given her a wildly effective side career as a model. Depending on the pose she strikes and the angle she's viewed from she can seem imposing, harder than crystal and stronger than the branch of a dwelling tree, or she can look vulnerable and meek, or playfully silly, or sultry and manipulative, or anything else the shoot or situation requires. As a model she'll wear anything and everything a job needs, but her own fashion tastes favor tight, legless skinsuits, heavy diving belts and metal clips, and necklaces made from the discarded teeth of various ocean predators, and her own designs go out of their way to cut out extra fabric to bare more of her fur patterns and as many parts of her body as she thinks is tasteful, which varies with the day. She is considerably taller than the average height of her species, towering over her family by a full three and a half centimeters. This still makes her positively tiny by galactic standards. Her mecha, the Gods-Smiting Whip || Nine-Tails {The Beast Who Gathers Power} or {The Hidden Reeds Where We Meet To Hunt}, is a speed-focused current gen model with a lithe frame and control nodes built into its head to resemble serval ears. A black power conduit runs down its spine to end in a tail, a common aesthetic conceit among Hybrasilian mecha. Nine-Tails' armor plating is segmented around the joints to assure maximum mobility along all points of articulation. It is painted in deep earthen browns and shining onyx blacks along the head and chest pieces, with a creamy offwhite coloration across the limbs. It is equipped with a beam trident and, more unusually, eight free floating ornaments roughly the same size and shape as a standard issue beam rifle. It is the topic of intense debate among people who have seen her fight how the hell it is she actually controls them, but she does so with otherworldly deftness. Each of the eight ornaments {Sacred Tails} can be fired or swung independently, or combined to form new weapon configurations.[/hider] [hider=Personal Journal]Log 1: Freedom. At last. Log 2: Feels about the same. Fish is better prepared. Not overcooked. I really don't mind either way. Log 3: This isn't working. Current model is operating at suboptimal parameters. I can't match her like this. Log 4: Frustrating. Log 5: I can't stay here. Need new perspectives. Different approach. Different tech? I will travel. Log 27: Human fashions are fascinating. Unnecessarily prudish. I can fix them. Log 52: Mother, Father, Second Mother. Sister and Brothers. I will make you proud. I swear it on the stars, for you to hear some other day. I love you all.[/hider]
