Welcome to Gaia! ::

Here's the little character I like to attribute to my avatar. When I play my avatar as a character she goes by Aylin Rhys. She's shown up in some light in guild RPing in the other guilds I belong to so it's only natural I use her here.

Other: Aylin is quite loyal to her friends and family. She is known to have a mischievous streak pulling pranks on her close friends and the occasional human. Aylin has taken a vow to not return home until she feels she has properly mourned the death of Orrin, her human husband of fifty years.

Known Powers/Abilities: Aylin has the ability to fly, form a ball of light, knows limited pixie magic, and is very good with bladed human weapons and the staff. She can also bake breads and pastries, decorate cakes, and create art with cappuccino milk (though not very fast).

Limitations: While Aylin knows pixie magic, she is very limited in what she can do having been banned from using magic for five years as a child. Because of these limits Aylin prefers, and at times relies on, human weapons when fighting. When she does use pixie magic it has the tendency to backfire on Aylin with rather comical results. Aylin also has a tendency to be jealous of her younger siblings and how magic comes easier to them.

Aylin has a minor food allergy to parsnips that causes her skin to become red and slightly puffy. She also has an issue with alcohol because of her size. Aylin can become drunk faster than others. When drunk Aylin has been known to become very chatty with anyone around her.

Brief History: Aylin was born into what could be considered a noble family to the Air Clan of pixies on Gaia. She is fifteen minutes older than her twin brother Colin, four years older than her brother Patrick, and six years older than her sister Katie. At the age of four Aylin accidentally blew up a large mansion in Durem when she misread one of the ancient scrolls of the Air Clan. After that incident Aylin was banned from learning or using magic until she was nine. This in turn put her behind her siblings in learning and controlling her magic.

At twenty Aylin joined the Air Clan military For the next fifteen years she trained in the ways of the Air Clan’s military. At thirty-five Aylin left the military and her home in the forests between the Zen Gardens and Durem spending the next ten years exploring Gaia. At forty-five Aylin would meet Orrin Scott the man she would eventually come to marry in a “fake” wedding ceremony in Barton and again in a proper ceremony in front of the Air Clan.

After fifty years of marriage filled with travel and adventure Orrin died due to a long fight with an illness. In her grief and sorrow Aylin decided to leave her forest home and her family to mourn alone. Aylin vowed to remain away from her clan until she felt her mourning period was over. Taking up residence in Durem Aylin took a job at a small newsstand/bookstore/pastry shop eventually moving in to the flat above it and taking it over when the original owner died three years after she began working there. She has been a resident of Durem for eight years.

However, the adventuring bug has bitten Aylin once more and she's since left her shop in the capable hands of her two employees. Looking for something to fill the void in her life and bring back the excitement of her youth Aylin returned to one of the many places she journeyed to in her youth before meeting her late husband Orrin. This decision, although not entirely her own, has brought her to Porta Denia to pretty much start all over again even though she still owns her shop in Durem.

Notes: Aylin has a natural curiosity when it comes to humans and has often spent days away from the clan’s home growing up observing them. In her flat Aylin keeps a small collection of bladed weapons mounted on the walls in her meditation and exercise space. As a part of her overall “business” look, Aylin has adopted to wearing bifocal reading glasses at times. She claims she doesn’t need them and that they’re just for looks but in reality Aylin doesn’t want to admit that her eyes are going a bit with age. The most common side effect to her magic going wrong has been two little horns on her head. Aylin has grown quite used to having the horns randomly appear on her when she messes up a spell.

Although she is technically the oldest and by right the heir to the family and the head of her clan Aylin has no interest in running the Air Clan. She easily passed the buck to her twin brother who was more than willing to take on the role as the family heir.

Aylin is on Porta Denia for reasons she's not quite at liberty to speak freely about and tells people she's visiting a part of her youth. It's a part of her marriage she refers to as the best dang first decade of marriage ever. It was a time when she and Orrin traveled the air routes using Porta Denia as their jumping off point and temporary home. Although she left her clan's military after a fifteen year career, she has been asked by them to work with her old unit, on her own, or with her husband in cases of military intelligence. Aylin believes the adventuring bug biting her and the pretty hush hush looking letter she received happening one right after the other was a stroke of cosmic fate.
