More Than Human: Huge, pitch dark eyes absorb all light from Filomena's surroundings, which renders her capable of seeing very well in incredibly low light. With her eyelids being semi translucent, she can only see well during the day, though not quite as well as at night.

Less Than Human: With a shortage of lower limbs when she was created, Filomena has two stubby tentacles rather than legs. Filomena is rather incapable of running, thanks to the tentacles. Climbing takes her large amounts of time due to the careful maneuvering involved. Even her walking is slow.

Filomena, spending all her time in the keep of the castle, does not have much opportunity to speak. Her vocal chords are taken from a child and are thus underdeveloped as it is.

Hope: Filomena wishes to learn how to speak better because she wants to be able to communicate with others. As it is currently, most find it difficult to understand her and her warning of someone approaching consists mainly of high shrieking.

Self-Hatred:
Filomena feels most incompetent when it comes to others being unable to understand her. In her opinion, this is what truly makes her a monster. When she gets the chance to examine other people, she feels even more self-conscious because her eyes and tentacles set her apart from them too.

Being unable to express herself is a point that convinces Filomena that she is inferior to others.

General Personality: In an attempt to show others her true nature, Filomena tries to act gentle and is generous when interacting with others.

Inner Personality: Curious, Filomena knows little about the world and since she cannot ask questions, most people do not feel the need to explain things to her randomly. Typically, she's very experimental and tries to figure things out for herself. Generally, she tries to learn more about everything around her when she gets the chance. She's friendly, but she is also rather bitter towards people for not trying harder to understand her.

Relationships:
Filomena likes Tammuz because her shares her joy in looking at things from the outside world and learning new things.
Wolf and Filomena tend to get along, since they are better at nonverbal communication and can therefore speak more easily with one another.
Gergana has no time for Filomena and so Filomena is not concerned with her.
Beatrix's clumsy movements endear her to Filomena.

Work is killing me physically and mentally, so I may not post for a couple days. X__x; We'll see how it goes. My goal is to try and get a post in by Sunday, though. Thanks for your patience.
