@cultural titan thank you very much!

Ill be fine getting into the RP. I'm fairly good at getting my characters into trouble.

@Absolis

That'll be fine. The last person I questioned this heavily dropped out and I wasn't even the gm then, so thanks for working through this with me. Its better for my self esteem that I don't send people packing. hmmm... that sounds kinda selfish actually.

@Cultural Titan

Huh. Well then.

I'm not scared off easily by questions. I try not to hop into anything without being fully prepared to answer any questions I may be asked.

I added in the details you wanted. If some of it looks a bit shoehorned, that's because it is. I found out I'm working on a schedule now.

Darkness and Light

Adria Solium

Name:Adria Solium

Appearance: Adria is a green haired girl with wolf features. She used dyes made of plants found around her home to change her hair color to green so that she would stand out in a crowd. A good trait to have in her profession. Her wolf features don't extend beyond some abilities, and wolf ears and a tail. Because of the small amount of features, she prefers to see herself as more person then wolf. Surprisingly, she doesn't dress extremely putlandishly, preferring to stay in her traveling clothes, which consist mostly of leather clothes and cloaks. On her back she carries a lute specially made to make the best use of her sound magic. Her eyes are mostly human, minus a yellow pupil.

Age:19

Gender: Female

Race: Wolf person. Her race was created when a village council commissioned the best magic user in the village to rid themselves of wolves forever. The magic he used was too strong for him however, and it backfired. Rather then eradicating all the wolves in existence, he inadvertently created a race of part wolf, part humans.

Side: Neutral. Can be swayed to either side.

Weapons(s): Besides her fists and sound magic, the only real weapon Adria has is her lute. It's mostly used defensively though. If someone gets to close she can charge it with sound magic, and if someone other then her were to touch it, they would find themselves blasted away by the sound.

Abilities/Powers:

Hearing: Adrias ears allow her above average hearing, which aids her with her music.

Speed: Adria is rather quick. Her speed is helpful when trying to get away from attackers, or when simply trying to beat the crowds to food.

Strength: Adria is rather strong as well. Her strength honed through simply trying to hold on to her lute when she channels her magic through it.

Sound magic: Adrias main form of magic. Her sound magic can be used several ways. Offensively, defensively, and for entertainment.

-entertainment: Adrias main use for her sound magic. Adria can channel her sound magic through her lute to change its sound, through the air to make her audience hear instruments she does not have, and through her voice to make her louder. She is very skilled with it in this way, and can create the sounds of multiple instruments all at one time.

-offensively: Adrias least used for of sound magic. Adria can use her sound magic to create sonic booms to disorient her enemies, and can fill the air with enough sound to create a highly pressurized zone of sound.

-defensive: Defensive is the final form of sound magic. Adria can use her sound Magic to set sound traps, disrupt some forms of magic, such as fire and water, and to set alarms that would go off should someone cross over them

Talent(s):

Singing: part of the reason Adria decided to leave her home and become a bard. Her voice is naturally good. Other then to make her voice louder, she does not need song magic for her voice.

Hunting and foraging: Adria was taught to hunt and forage before she set out on her own, and she honed her skills while traveling. While she isn't as good as a professional, she knows what she can and can't eat, and how to set a couple of traps.

Personality: Adria is a fairly nice person, but she can be a bit short tempered. As long as you are nice to her, she is nice to you. She loves it when people enjoy her music, though until she starts many write her off as any other typical bard. Though it is not much of an obstacle. She enjoys the simple act of performing her music as much as she enjoys having people to hear her. She loves to draw attention to herself, though this is so people are more likely to stick around to see her play. And by default so there are more people that might give her money. There isn't much she's afraid of, besides swamps. Swamps leave her paralyzed. At times she can be a bit mischievous, using her sound magic to mess with friends and people who mess with her.

Biography: Adria was born in a cAve settlement, far off from human cities. She was raised around people just like her. From an early age she was interested in performing, and would often do so for her friends and family. Her childhood was rather boring, minus an event where she once sneaked out to explore a nearby swamp, only to watch a stranger who was also exploring be dragged off by the wildlife. The event left her traumatized. As she watched the man bleed out in front of her, his screams of pain echoing throughout the swamp even as he knew that none wpuld help him. All of this cementing into her mind the finality of death, ans the knowledge that she could very well be next. This left her with a deathly fear of swamps, and to this day she will try her very best to steer clear of them. When she turned 18, she left her friends and family behind to travel to the cities and villages and become the greatest bard the world had ever known

Oh! One problem. I access this site through 100% mobile. I don't have a computer, so I'm here on my phone. So editing is a bit of a problem. I'll just post it again if that's alright @cultural titan

Darkness and Light

@cultural titan alright then. I'll put it in there now. I actually did put an explanation of the sound traps in the above post. But as you said, I won't put it in.

Darkness and Light

@cultural titan

To put it into detail as I would understand it, historically, while wolves have been seen as symbols of strength and loyalty, their actual presence has long been hated. So much so that countries actually succeeded in purging wolves of all kinds completely from their borders and forests. That's the inspiration for that.

As Adria would understand it, well, she really wouldn't. As it would have happened before she was born.

Now as to what it would be magically, it would be the actions of a village or country performing those same purges mentioned above, but with magic. However, universally across all media involving magic, the stronger the magic the harder it is to perform, control, and the more likely it is to backfire. A spell made to wipe out a species entirely would be extremely powerful magic. Thus, the creation of the wolf people would a product of a backfire.

The defensive sound traps work by charging the area with sound magic, much the same way as she would her lute. The difference being that since the magic is spread out, not concentrated into a single item, it would go off in a cacophony of disorienting, and possibly deafening sound when someone made contact with the infused area.

I chose not to name the settlement as I am particularly awful at naming things, and more then likely the time it would take for me to think of names, and decide on them, would have made me give up. If you truly need one, I can come up with one later.

The music is more of a dream then anything. There isn't any single reason beyond it has always been something she has enjoyed doing, and performing for people has always made her happy. Its the same reason I enjoy cooking. Theres no real reason I enjoy it, I just enjoy doing so and like it when people like the food I make.

The event in the swamp traumatized her due to her age, in much the same way that many small children are traumatized when they catch glimpses of slasher movies. The difference being that Adria saw it happen right in front of her. She would have heard the screams, saw the blood. Possibly would have even gotten splattered depending on how close the person was. All in the dead of night. Suffice to say, that is a whirlwind of fears that already terrifying to small children when viewed in a setting that is known to be false, happening in a way she knows is real, and in a way that she knew she could be next.

Would this perhaps be enough detail? I know you said I didn't need to cover every point, but I did try my best. To be frank, Adria is my least developed character and that's part of the reason I am RPing as her, so I can develop her more.

@supertinyking

He may be a sore loser, but believe me when I say, that the kolons only want a hug

Multiverse Rising (Always in need of New Friends)

Roshan looks like he will be an interesting character. Until the kolons find him.

@Absolis

But, how is she supposd to sing AND play at the same time? XD

@Crimson Raven

Part of the sound magic to make the instruments, part of the magic to make her voice loud enough to be heard
