Sent this on over to Burger earlier, but since others have shared theirs, I might as well do the same. More two stars for the star god!

Her voice is clear and sweet, but a bit on the loud side, witha youthful ring to it. When happy, her ears twitch and her tail wags, when upset or sad, her ears and tail droop. [indent][b]Personality:[/b][/indent] Lunalaye is a self-serving individual who prioritizes her own wants, needs, comfort and well-being. Although she likes to try and portray herself, and come of as, a cunning, confident and competent being, the truth is... She's a bit of an idiot and a simpleton. Easily swayed by praise or others self-depricating themselves, she let's compliments go to her head. The barghest is also prideful, and gets (childishly) upset when criticized or called out on her folly. In that regard, she's also petty, holds grudges and the kind of jerk who'll only lift a finger - if you've upset her before - after you crawl, scrape and beg on your hands and knees to her. A big lover of eating, Lunalaye is also easily bribed, convinced or subdued with food and drink. She gets easily attached to those who earn her favor, while being very blunt and obvious towards those she actively dislikes. The little barghest has good natural instincts, and can be quite cunning and clever at times - but being cunning and clever doesn't amount to to much if you don't have foresight or can properly capitalize on those strengths. Additionally, loud sounds or strong scents freak her out, and she can become very fidgety or outright spazzy when exposed to such experiences. Trying to stand above others as "top dog", she wishes to be looked upon with admiration and fear, as well as be relied upon by her "pack". She loves collecting treasures and trinkets... Only to curse them, for her own childish amusement - and will hoard them greedily if given the chance. She seems to subscribe to the concept of treating symptons and the immediate issue, rather than looking for a long-time or permanent solution. Trying to put on airs, she can attempt to speak grandiosely and strike fancy, confident poses... Only to have her logic poked full of holes in and her face turn into a blank, confounded derpy mess when her brain can no longer keep up. While she tries to be a beacon of power, she's also - at heart - a coward, and will run [i]yipe! yipe! yipe![/i]-ing from a fight or situation that either freaks her out or proves too difficult for her to handle. Without any shame. What? Self-preservation is natural! [indent][b]Abilities:[/b][/indent] [list][*][b]Blindsight & Darkvision:[/b] As a member of the Barghest-species, Lunalaye has both the innate capability of darkvision and blindsight. Hence her oddly shaped and colored pupils. [*][b]Shapechange:[/b] Lunalaye can swap between her canine, wolf-like form and her more humanoid appearance. The transformation takes only a few seconds to complete. Notably, she gets physically stronger and faster in her beast-form, but loses the ability to use any of her magic or spell-like powers. [*][b]Charm Animal/Monster/Person:[/b] An ability that allows Lunalaye to [i]Charm[/i] another being and sway them to her side, for a limited amount of time. This does not work on the undead, plant-life or constructs. If the charmed target is attacked or injured, the effect is also immediately broken. [*][b]Invisibility Sphere:[/b] Lunalaye has the ability to cast an area of effect invisibility spell on herself and any allied beings nearby. This renders them completely undetctable by mundane sight, until the effect is broken or cancelled. Attacking or performing anything more complicated than opening a door will end the spell. [*][b]Low-brand Telepathy:[/b] As a barghest, Lunalaye has the ability to communicate wordlessly by speaking directing into someone or something's mind. This is very handy when you don't want others to hear what you're saying, or when communicating in silence is advantageous. The caviat is, she can only communicate with someone she herself can actually, physically see. Even knowing that a friend is behind a wall or in another room doesn't let her speak to them - she has to have actual, current visual confirmation of her target. She can also only talk to one person/being at a time using this power. [*][b]Curses:[/b] She's very adept at Curses and Curse-based magic. Using this to debilitate foes makes it easier for Lunalaye to then deal with them, or have others deal with them on her behalf. This can be largely anything from robbing an opponent of their sight or hearing, to making them suffer painful jolts or stings through their body. It can also be more mundane things, like weakning their physical strength or dexterity. [*][b]Holy Weakness:[/b] As a type of Fiend, Lunalaye is really, really, really not a fan of anything Holy or Sacred. Holy Water, Purification Magic, Sanctified Weapons. These all scare her, and rightfully so, because they also hurt her like an oncoming freight-train. [*][b]Sensitive Senses:[/b] As a beast-like creature, Lunalaye has a superior sense smell, taste, hearing and sight to that of the common human! ... Which also comes at the price of her being more sensitive to things that stimulate those senses. Strong scents, loud or high-pitched noises, sudden bright flashes... These are all real headaches to her and can make the barghest flip her wig and spaz out in panic, confusion or agitation. It does hlep when hunting prey though, so it's not all bad! ... Maybe... [/list] [indent][i]Notes:[/i][/indent] When given food, she becomes very passive and amiable. When she sees someone she doesn't like, she'll growl (cutely) at them. When she sees someone she likes, her tail with start wagging involuntairily. She's got a lot of energy and has a great deal of stamina. Extremely sensitive about her height and weight.
