Here's my character sheet:
Name: Ryelle
Age: 17
Race: Fey (essentially, a fairy)
Appearance: Tall and slender, Ryelle is considered a rare beauty in her kind. Her hair flows in soft, pale blonde tendrils down her back, somehow accentuating her full red lips and large, almond-shaped eyes. Her eyes are, perhaps, the most captivating – or horrendous – thing about her: one eye is perfectly normal and possesses a delicate green color, while the other is wholly black. She hides her unnerving eye beneath a generic eyepatch. Her body is not exactly curvy, but she does have some hints of an hourglass figure. Her skin is healthy and has a smooth tan; it is marred only by fine silver scars tracing intricate designs across the whole of her body. She will most often be caught wearing the traditional white clothing of her kind.
Personality: Ryelle is bold, brash, and blunt. After being released from the tight restrictions of her Fae society, she revels in her new freedom of speech, and uses it as often as possible. She is still learning about local cultures and customs, although she is extraordinarily educated in most other areas. Although she talks loud, she is rather sensitive, and people often insult her just by accident. She can usually handle that sort of situation fairly easily (by disguising her sensitivity through some means), but when she’s had a stressful or tiring day, she could explode into a fiery rage that she is sure to feel guilty about for days afterward. She has an endless compassion for peoples of either side of the battle, a fact that baffles the majority of the peoples she has encountered.
Brief history: Ryelle is not happy to be here, but she hides it under the thin veil of duty. Her people had selected her, the priest’s daughter, as the best they had to offer in terms of weaponry. Though this belief is not incorrect – Ryelle could certainly use her powers to subtly fight the onslaught of dark creatures – , Ryelle is more of the pacifist type. Her mother had taught her in secret of the twin assets “charisma” and “purpose,” and Ryelle strongly believes that a combination of the two could move mountains in a significantly less bloody manner than war. Her scars were created during a sacrificial ritual, in which so much of her sacred Fey blood was spilled that she was in a coma for three days. She considers those sorts of rituals barbaric but necessary for keeping order.
Other: Ryelle has the exceptional ability of illusion: she can create any sort of image and it will seem real to all of the senses excepting touch. When she uses her ability, she becomes absorbed in the creation so that she is barely able to think of doing anything else, much less perform any physical actions. Her power can extend up to an impressive half-mile, but the potency fades with the distance. When not absorbed in creation, Ryelle is pretty handy with the blade, but her best weapon is the bow and arrow. It may be important to note that when Ryelle is creating an illusion, an exact replica of the illusion can be found in her “black eye.”
