Rasilyn Lockwood
References: [Here]
A Summary of their History: Her full profile here
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Race: Human – Gaian Native & Durem born
Class/Occupation: Warp Seer (I’m sure this means very little to most of you xD but it’s explained below)
Sex: Female
Age: 19
Eyes: Soft blue – big and child-like
Hair: Pale blonde; somewhat long (a little longer than her shoulders) straight and usually quite neat it can either have long bangs or be all one length – sometimes parted slightly to one side and tucked behind her ear – other times it just does whatever.
Skin: Fair even pale – not entirely healthy and showing some clear signs she might actually be ill.
Any defining scars/markings/tattoos: None
Height: 5’3” or so
Weight: 110lbs give or take
Body Type: Rasilyn is on the lean side and rather meek side due to chronically poor health – she is quite the petite little thing, and has no real “muscle” at all. She is also quite small chest-wise putting her somewhere between a high-A and low-B.
CLOTHING: Rasilyn has a fondness for dressy, very feminine clothing if even somewhat ‘sophisticated’ or at least nice. It’s not uncommon at all to see her in dresses and blouse-skirt combinations, generally in a semi-Victorian Lolita style often making her look more like a little porcelain doll than anything. She prefers softer colors and gentler fabrics – colors such as lighter blues, grays, whites, even touches of brown in some cases.
Some of her trademarks include:
-A long light blue woolen coat with buttons down the front; it’s her favorite and it was a Christmas present, something for the harsh winter months and she loves it very much.
-Blue tunic top with gold trim and a wide neck/collar, split up the side to about the waist so it can be worn over skirts – should look sort of arcane-ish/somewhat fancy
-Black Mary Janes or slipper flats and white stockings
PERSONALITY: Rasilyn is extremely child-like most of the time, because of her connection to the Aethyr (all the things she’s been exposed to and dealt with have taken a toll on her already innocent mind) she’s very polite, if not particularly submissive and quick to comply, sometimes going out of her way to show her proper manners because of her more refined upbringing. She is otherwise rather pleasant in temperament, and happy, almost naively so – giving the idea that she might not really understand the very nature of the things she can do. When something makes her happy, she’s very happy – when something upsets her, she makes it known in more physical ways, and can easily be brought to tears if truly upset. A means of soothing herself even, is to sing and block out the rest of the world, sing – hum, whatever, just to offer herself some comfort or solace from whatever is bothering her. It’s possible that she acts as she does, maintains the mentality of a child in order to keep her mind from really cracking from all the exposure to a many thing unpleasant.
Special abilities: Like above, Rasilyn is a Seer – she is susceptible to visions of a most disturbing sort, sometimes in great detail and other times cryptic.
She is also quite skilled and adept in the way of Tarot, with more than just a knack for interpretation and divination; Tarot cards are typically part of a Seer’s arsenal so to speak.
Singing – at one point, Rasilyn was part of a church choir and found a great joy in music and singing so much that she often breaks into little tunes or hums when in a good mood. She’s not superstar quality but she has a sweet little voice and can at least carry a tune.
LIKES: Singing, music, snow, kind people, reading her tarot, making friends, wandering off, puzzles, mysteries, stories and hugs – she likes to give hugs to people she really feels strongly about or who are kind to her.
DISLIKES: cruelty, getting the cold shoulder, being handled roughly, shouting, bullies, pushy people,
RELATIONSHIPS
What your character thinks of the people he/she can be drawn with:
Madison: These two became fast friends after a chance encounter in the Crimson Hawk Hotel during the Heaven or Hell tournament. Madison’s ears are what caught Rasilyn’s attention and after they exchanged introductions and talked some more, she became very fond of the bunny who is a lot like her in varying ways with her innocence and kind, shy personality. So they’re much likely to be seen playing in the snow together and things like that. They’re quite cute. On some level, they’re also one in the same, what with having lost their biological family at an early age as well as both having a fondness for music – Madison with the piano and Rasilyn with her singing and music in general.
-Innocent friendship
-Kindred spirits
-Adoration/admiration
Raien: This is certainly a complicated one here – Aside from having a vision that more or less involved her, Rasilyn felt a sort of draw towards her and after getting to know her a little more through brief conversation and meeting, she formed a quick fondness for her because of Rai’s kind and very motherly ways and often snuck out of her hotel room to go visit the woman who would in turn look after her and dote on her like a little sister or daughter of sorts.
-MotherxDaughter kind of relationship
-Drawn to each other
-Lots of intrigue surrounding both of them and their mutual connection to a man named Damnatus.
[Not a participating character]
Damnatus: He saved her more or less from being killed/executed after she got roped into a ‘cult’ of sorts – he spared her life upon discovering her abilities as a Seer and realizing she could be useful to him. As of now, they have a sort of Master-student relationship or even Craftsman-tool but this is more in his eyes really, whereas, Rasilyn is eternally grateful to him for sparing her and taking responsibility of her, even if he’s just using her – she respects his superiority and skill and almost regards him as a fatherly sort of figure.
-TeacherxStudent
-FatherxDaughter like at times, if only barely
-Her life, her fate is basically in his hands
SUGGESTIONS: Again I’m not really picky and like to leave it all up to the artists based on the relationships listed! I’ll add more ideas when I think of them.

Raien DeCuir
REFERENCES: [Album here]
A Summary of their History: [Working on]
See journal for History WIP
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
(If you want a real person for comparison try Inara / Morena Baccarin of Firefly.
Race:
"Meta" In her original world of origin (a modern world with fantasy elements) there existed something called Metas who were simply any human or non-human with abilities and or traits that were outside of normal comprehension and achievement, capabilities and things both physical and non-physical that were far too extraordinary to be considered what the population considered "human" any longer and were thus labeled "Metas" short for Metahumans. Most if not all were Humanoid in the physical sense but were "special" either by racial origin or mutation.
"Plane touched" Mortal creatures whose ancestors were of some extra planar race.
Rai is considered a Meta in her own right because of her being able to trace her blood line back to these extra-planar beings. On top of that, she possesses unique and beyond human abilities that also make her something more than human. However because she is more "human" than plane-touched or "Meta" she identifies more with what is "normal" and passes as such in most if not all physical ways though she is for the most part neutral in her loyalties.
Class/Occupation: Owner and bartender of “Before the Dawn Tavern & Inn” [click to go to the actual commerce thread]
Sex: Female
Age: 23-24 years or so
Eyes: Color example but with less blueish green Slightly almond-shaped that are black upon first glance. They’re a dark slate color and in the right light they can catch other tints of color (earth tones such as brown or green - nothing extraordinary); overall they’re quite exotic/unique
Hair: Dark shade of brown – primarily chocolate and espresso; she’s not against dressing it up a bit with very sparse, thin streaks of warmer colors to compliment something she might be wearing – she wears it somewhat long and often parted to one side with bangs sweeping across her face.
Skin: Rai is naturally tan, her skin is a warmer shade (think Islander or Spanish tan)
Any defining scars/markings/tattoos: Raien has a single tattoo on her back and it’s fairly small.
-Just beneath her right shoulder on her back sits a barn owl with his wings spread up and open with a tree sprig clutched tightly in its little clawed feet Example ref. Just the owl and the leaf/sprig in its feet please and not so big.
Height: 5’5”
Weight: 134lbs
Body Type: Naturally slender and blessed with very feminine curves Raien maintains a very lightly toned figure, if at least enough to be considered in excellent health and tries to keep a fairly active lifestyle, though she's not quite in the realm of "athletic". She has a more ample chest but certainly not too much. [Please don’t overdo it]
CLOTHING: Rai enjoys a rather diverse wardrobe, and usually leans more towards particularly feminine clothing. She enjoys color and earth tones alike, and has a fondness for billowy skirts that move with you, almost gypsy inspired styles with a few unique pieces of jewelry here and there, bracelets, arm warmers, or even just jeans and a comfortable top. Her clothing usually reflects her personality, which is mentioned below.
[Obviously this means I love creative freedom when it comes to her outfits, and if you’re the type of person who enjoys designing outfits – remember: there’s a ‘best outfit design’ category too!]
PERSONALITY: Rai is a very pleasant person to be around what with her typically warm and friendly attitude and bright spirits. She is also quite mature and maternal and forms very strong bonds with people – her deep curiosity and kind nature often lead her to extend her social reach making it easier to approach unfamiliar people, strangers, and make quick acquaintances. While she rarely has a reason to not be happy and friendly, like any other individual she has her less than pleasurable side. This is something that generally only rears its head when someone crosses her or seriously upsets her.
As a very compassionate person, she find it easy to really care about and concern herself with her customers and if someone’s having a problem she’s sometimes inclined to offer to help out or offer consolation.
LIKES: Winter/snow, dancing, sweets, her job, reading, carnivals, being outdoors, spending quality time with a friend/or Jonathan
DISLIKES: Secrets, liars and being lied to, chauvinists, unnecessary aggression, being brushed off/not taken seriously, people who let themselves get walked all over (doormats), being used
RELATIONSHIPS
What your character thinks of the people he/she can be drawn with:
Rasilyn: Being rather maternal at times, Raien regards Rasilyn almost like a daughter or sister or something of the sort and feels rather protective over her and the day they first met, Rasilyn managed to catch Sotiris her pet owl and was surprised how the bird took to the young girl and enjoyed random visits from the girl to play with him. In regards to how she’s treated by and her relationship with the man, Damnatus, she doesn’t really trust with caring for the girl – not that he actually cares so much as babysits her.
-Adoration
-MotherxDaughter kind of relationship
-Protective
-Older “playmate”
[Not listed are more characters she can be drawn with]
Jonathan: The “real” or “original” Raien’s fiancé and long time lover. As many say, opposites attract, and this is entirely the case with Jonathan and Rai. He is drawn to her spunk, her curiosity and kindness while she adores his casual, easygoing way, and is very much fond of his simplicity. Unfortunately, a very complicated series of events lead to a pretty tragic if even painful ending of the relationship including but not limited to her death. During their relationship however, these two couldn't be more perfect for each other.
[He's ex-military so he needs to be athletic, buff but not over the top HUEG - he can either be drawn with whiteish gray hair or brown (dyed) - style should full, short but growing out and somewhat messy - gray eyes with or without specks of brown - dressed in casual clothes - or what you see in refs.]
-Deep heartfelt and trusting love
-Each others best friends
-Sweet & tender
Damnatus: Considering ‘Damnatus’ is ‘who’ Jonathan becomes after the fact (after a long distressing chain of events and phenomena that completely warped him and his mind) – this relationship is extremely complicated and hard to explain but basically – it’s VERY tense, very difficult for both parties – he’s pretty much skittish of her and tries much as he can to avoid having to get involved with her again, and she cant stand his coldness and secretive ways and tries too hard be involved with him.
[Somewhat long whitish hair that should look almost sickly and not natural - eyes stitched (if you can't draw that, just have the hood of his coat cover or shadow his face some) - frame should be sort of emaciated showing he was once really athletic but has since deteriorated - His coat is like a cross between something that used to be a long-coat and a robe with very archaic patterns down the sleeves and shoulders (blue underneath and gold weaved in) - Coat should be rather worn, almost tattered (especially the tails) - for more details see his profile on my freewebs site]
-Tragic former lovers
-Intrigue and pain
-One sided care
-Frustration and impatience
SUGGESTIONS:
[Single]
Not picky, as long as it coincides with her personality but here's some basic ideas:
-Picture of her with her owl perched on her shoulder/arm/etc.
-In her tavern/working (serving drinks or perched over the bar etc.)
-Some kind of winter picture (she loves the snow very much)
[Couple]
*With Rasilyn*
-Something cute
-Rai holding her owl Sotiris and Rasilyn feeding/petting/playing with him
-Being protective of her (something like soothing her crying or defending her etc.)
*With Damnatus*
-Anything showing the symbolism and connection between them
-Arguing like, him being cold, her being concerned but frustrated
-Can be drawn just after fighting with each other - it was heated and well yeah just long pent up feelings, the aftermath of a really awkward, very angry very hurtful argument
-Her trying to show kindness and him brushing her off/completely rejecting her
-Anything dramatic really whether it ended in tears or lots of frustration/anger
*With Jonathan*
-Simply holding hands
-Cuddling/snuggling but not over the top mushy
-Just casual and friendly, like in the middle of conversation or just having fun together.
-Separate but connected in some fashion? (be creative?)
-Snuggled up against a tree outside, at night and looking up at the stars, maybe even the Northern Lights/Aurora Borealis, idunno something romantic like that.
-Curled up and reading together, maybe one of them falling asleep or already asleep? Something sweet of the sort.
-Well she owns and works at a Pub & Inn so maybe something cute with him leaning over the bar to give her a kiss or just having a conversation and them looking at each other or being happy/laughing, etc. talking over drinks/coffee
-He's retired military, so he owns a pair of personalized dog-tags and maybe something cute with her wearing/reading them or him giving them to her to wear? Something like that.
-And lastly, just something simple, like, she's cold and he's putting his coat/hoodie on her all protective and loving like.

Zandra Ryke
References: Her gallery
 A Summary of their History: [Full Profile Here]
To keep it short and simple – Zandra Ryke – or Ryke as she prefers - was born in Aekea to a pretty big family with plenty siblings to go around – she is the sister to 5 other siblings with her twin Lisselle, Oldest brother Warren, Second eldest Dorian, and her two younger brothers, Noah and Wyatt. Her father Barrett owns his own Scrap Company as well as primary job working in repairs – her mother Abigail works in Housing commission alongside long time resident and housing Manager Josie.
Instead of going into business like her parents however, Ryke followed her own path and, after some interesting trials, jumped into the business of bounty hunting. She’s been at it for about 7 or some years now and wouldn’t trade it for anything. Her ‘job’ has lead to many exciting encounters and opportunities to satisfy a thrill chaser like herself and over time she’s made many an interesting acquaintances and friends.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Race: Gaian Human – Aekean born
Class/Occupation: Bounty hunter
Sex: Female
Age: 27-28 years - born June 17th - Gemini
Eyes: Blue-green: For someone who is more of a “plain Jane” Ryke actually has really nice eyes – probably the only honestly girlish thing about her.
Hair: Red (like real redheads, her hair is more of a coppery orange color, a ginger if you would) messy and far from perfect – if even damaged in places showing she doesn’t really primp or pay special attention to her mop-top. She always has some dye colored streaks - about an inch or more starting from the bottom up on the ends of her hair; colors range from blue, to green to white; Never: pink, purple, red.
Skin: She has a decent natural tan on top of her naturally ruddy complexion – clearly uneven in places that don’t get the same exposure to the sun – she’s earned her collection of scars scrapes bruises and abrasions – nothing obscenely marring or disfiguring though and if anything they give her character – make her more of a tomboy. She has freckles around her cheeks and nose but they’re not really incredibly noticeable and only become really visible with a lot of sun exposure.
Any defining scars/markings/tattoos: None of the “battle scars” she has are really all that memorable, just plain old crap from getting torn up, scrapping and the usual her job and or just plain old fighting would earn her. No markings but she has four tattoos –
1) Left wrist - [=X=] the knot sits in the center and the lines wrap around her arm. - She got this right after HoH and more importantly, after reuniting and making up with Colin as a sort of standing for everything they’ve been through since the day they first met and her feelings for him – not just romantically but as a friend and comrade. Colin is part Irish obviously. The tattoo has more symbolism but I need to really think about it more.
2) Right wrist - [=X=] Meaning: Star/Zodiac sign for Gemini hooked around the Genogram sign for Twins; she shares this tattoo with her sister Lisselle and it means a lot to her.
3) Upper back across shoulders - [=X=] The gun stands for her love of living on the edge and the birds more or less stand for her independence, overall it stands for the freedom she gets out of it.
4) Chest - celtic cross with a thorned vine curling up and around the tail. Three words adorn the tip of the cross, one on the left arm, right arm and in center saying: Forget Me Not with the top of the cross right between her collar bones, bottom trailing down between her breasts. Very personal yes, but then again not like anyone will be seeing much of it besides her. A good while after the incident with Colin in the Leviathan Stadium fight, that shockingly lead to his death, Ryke went and got herself another tattoo, out of both memory and dedication to not only her close friend, but a man she realized she loved, just a little too late. Taking a cue from his Irish roots, the design came about through random sketching until she settled on this. [No picture yet]
Height: 5’7” give or take she’s somewhat tall for a woman or at least above average.
Weight: 150lbs or so
Body Type: She is supposed to be sort of lean, clearly athletic – not ripped or ridiculously built but she has noticeable form without it being over the top. She can hold her own in a lot of fights, if they’re physical at least, powers well, that’s entirely different. Because she is more lean cut, she also possesses somewhat little in the way of ample breasts and would place her as a Large B to Small C or somewhere around there.
CLOTHING: Generally tomboyish – or just flat out boyish Ryke goes for comfort over fashion and finds that plain shirts and cargo pants or shorts really allow her the freedom of movement while covering enough of her body to protect her from the weather and whatever else. You usually won’t find her in anything girly, frilly or terribly feminine at all (unless bribed a lot or forced)
Some of Ryke’s trademark items are more just favorite clothing options and are almost always drawn unless you have some sort of creative reason or theme that doesn't involve them.
xxxxx-Cargo pants: Pretty straight forward here, she prefers these as they’re rugged and hold up under a lot of abuse, providing both comfort and protection and come in handy what with the numerous pockets. They’re loose and baggy enough to be comfortable but not so much that they’ll fall right off of her. These are usually a big staple when she’s doing a lot of physical activity. Obviously these have been through a lot regarding their condition –
xxxxx-Blast goggles: These babies are her favorite, and they’ve seen plenty of years and lots of use – scratches, general wear and tear, you name it but they still work and as long as they do their job, who is she to give them up? When she’s not using them, they sit at the top of her head/forehead, probably the only thing besides her hair that stands out about her.
xxxxx-Green bomber jacket: The jacket originally belonged to Colin, it was one of his favorite staple items and after the incident in the stadium, it came into her possession and since then, she’s taken up wearing it - for multiple reasons.
xxxxx-Bracers: Instead of traditional gloves or the overly used terribly cliché biker gloves, Ryke wears bracers. They’re basically a long –reinforced padded leather sleeve that covers from her knuckles to about halfway up her forearm with a thin glove like covering to be worn underneath to prevent chafing, and
PERSONALITY: Ryke is an interesting one – she’s quite straight up making her a rather forward ‘don’t beat around the bush’ kind of girl. She’s even been once described as “rough and tumble” which is amusing. She curses, she drinks, she’s hardly polite, snarky, sarcastic, very aggressive and just as competitive. If she isn’t having a good time then she’ll be sure no one else around her is either. Her motto is pretty self-explanatory: “You have to enjoy life. Or you end up wasting it.”
There are, however, rare moments where she can be almost a completely different person – showing a deeper, wider range of emotions and it’s usually only a select few people who can really bring that side out of her including but not limited to: Her family, Izzy, Colin, and a couple others.
LIKES: Her job, having drinks with friends, having a good bout with someone, exchanging banter with or harassing Ebris, making trouble with Izzy and sometime her brother Noah.
DISLIKES: Smoking, drugs, most metas (power users), people who are louder and more obnoxious than her (she hates to be shown up), the D word, White Mages, being too mushy
RELATIONSHIPS
What your character thinks of the people he/she can be drawn with
Izzy: The shifter is her best friend, plain and simple. They are often times “attached” as some people like to say, and you might think THEY were the twins as opposed to she and her real sister. Ryke really likes Izzy and cares very much about her, even maybe to the point of a sisterly like bond. They are notorious for getting into trouble and going out drinking together and just having a grand old time but the best thing is – when Izzy needs a shoulder to support her in tough times, Ryke is right there, loyal and protective. She also has the capacity to be flat out honest with her when the situation calls for it.
-Best friends
-Confidants
-Partners in crime
[Not listed elsewhere are these characters she can also be drawn with if so desired]
Ebris: Her fellow bounty hunter with many more years of experience on her and despite his piss poor attitude and gruff, and perpetually grumpy behavior, she respects him and amuses herself with his company and feels that they often make a pretty damn good partner pair when it comes to working and a just as good drinking buddy.
[Ebris is a HUEG GAI (6’6” 310lbs – think Marv of Sin City) so if you can’t do HURR MANREH, muscles and generally un-attractive mean lookin’ dudes – don’t bother]
[X] – [X] – [X]
-Sort of friends
-Business partners/comrades
-Almost father-daughter’ish
-Banter/teasing
Lisselle: Her twin sister and one of her closest siblings. Lissy is a lot different than her sister, despite looking so much alike – however, they are extremely tight and though they do sometimes argue cause of their differences they are twins through and through. Lissy often takes on the big sis attitude and looks out for her twin.
[There’s only two pics of Lissy and both are in my gallery with Ryke’s refs. Do keep in mind that there are differences between them – Lissy is much more feminine but has shorter hair and slightly lighter skin]
-Twin Sisters
-Familial love
Colin: Ahh yes, the Brit/Irish punker and former merc that is the object of Ryke’s affections. They’ve been through a lot, and started out as teammates working together on an odd job and slowly but steadily grew closer until they came to a point where they were more or less – friends with deeper feelings of affection for each other and considering they both aren’t the type to dedicate themselves to a relationship and commitments they left it as it was for a while until an accident brought them closer and just as quickly put a wedge between them for a time until they mended the strained relationships. As of now, they’re an item – without limitations or tying one another down. He is also her favorite sparring partner!
[Also not a pretty boy – attractive but not Bishie]
Colin refs.:
-Affectionate but not mushy and too touchy feely
-Very close
-Competitive friends
-Excitement and
SUGGESTIONS: I’m not picky at all when it comes to poses, in fact I like it better when the artist has freedom with the pose, but I’ll toss up some simple ideas to help with inspiration.
[Single]
-Making faces or just plain being her usual wild self
-Action poses are fun – check her profile for her favorite weapon choices if you like!
-Anything showing off her “ink”
[Couple]
-Goofing off with Izzy or Noah
-Teasing Izzy or just having drinks/good time
-Twins!
-Pestering Ebris
-Something with Colin but nothing mushy and overly affectionate – if anything I prefer something casual if not friendly
-A cool idea I had once was a group piece of Ryke and Izzy or Ryke and Lissy showing off their tattoos.
