Irilym Malisvir


User Image
    Character Details:
  • Name: Irilym Malisvir
  • Age: Literally, around 6-7 (that's how long she's been 'alive' since she was created from Draggy's soul, at least), however being created from a part of Dragona's soul, she looks Draggy's age and has her mental maturity as well, if not the same disposition, so basically a mature adult.
  • Race: Shadow dragon (though in truth she has no race of her own having begun her existence as a taint on Draggy's soul)
  • Eye color: Icy azure blue and slitted like a dragon's
  • Skin color: Darkly tanned
  • Body build: Despite not having elven facial features, ears, and height, she does have an overall slim, elven build good for speed and stealth when neccessary
  • Hair color/length/style: Her hair, described as "fiery red", would be mid-shoulder length at best, not falling below her shoulder blades. She would likely keep it out of the way somehow, though she does have bangs framing her face (nothing too long or that would obscure her vision). Also, her hair would be straight.
  • Unusual Features: She allows her draconic heritage to show in her human form. This is seen in the slitted eyes, the claws replacing fingernails on her hands, and the patches of shadowy black scales over her left eye and running down her arms (Also along her spine and the back of her neck, but those are less visible)
  • Clothing: Her clothing may not be black, but it's darkly hued, often dark enough that at a glance it appears black. Irilym is a skulker and a lurker, preferring to work and twist from the shadows, and she dresses the part appropriately. Her outfits have a similar roguish flair as Draggy, but almost a darker and more twisted version of them. However, let it never be said Irilym doesn't have a fashion sense. When she wants she can wear clothing to attract eyes with the best of them, it's just that normally she chooses to be beneath notice for her own purposes. wink
  • Armor: Irilym does wear armor from time to time in hardened leather studded with metal spikes for added protection.
  • Weapons: Shortsword on her belt and various daggers hidden among her person
  • Jewelry: Being a dragon she does have a tendancy to collect jewelry, though she rarely wears it unless there's a purpose to it.
  • Character Personality: Hateful, deceptive, vengeful, spiteful, all around not a nice person
  • Class: Rogue/Sorcerer (She has Draggy's skills at thievery, but the difference between them is that while Draggy has a penchant for shapeshifting and can't cast a spell on her own to save her life (she has to use scrolls and even then it can be a disaster!), Irilym picked up the dragon's natural penchant for sorcery that was blocked from Draggy when she gained her own body and is rather abysmal at shifting forms (i.e., she can make simple changes like changing herself to look like another human or demi-human (hince Maelthra), but she can't change into any kind of monstrous forms save her own dragon form without the aid of magic)
  • Other: Her name a corruption of the draconic word for 'enemy', she is a living shadow of Dragona torn from her soul when Dragona was killed and then ressurected by her best friend (long story xd ). She found herself without a form and so took a soul-bargain with a balor. Later on, her mate, Artanaz, had a ritual performed to break the demon's soul bond on her and give her a body of her own, that of a great shadow dragon. Being of draconic heritage, the new form took and she has adapted to it well. The description below is her humanoid form.

  • ARTIST'S NOTE: Irilym generally shows some sort of draconic feature in her human form be it as small as a draconic cast to her eyes or as much as the full wings, scales, claws, and horns of a half-dragon. How little or how much of her draconic features show is entirely up to the artist. Please note that if coloring the picture that Irilym's scales will be a dark, shadowy black tinted barely red if any color at all.


Descriptions:
Current:
She might be described as insignificant on a casual glance, but take a closer look at skulking woman before you and you might just disagree. She stands a mere 5'7" in height and of a slightly lighter weight than average for a woman of her size and lean build. Her facial features are oft defined by the luring shadows cast by the cowl of her old tattered cloak, but when a glimpse is caught there is something primal about the piercing acidic blue eyes and the defined features of her deeply sun-kissed face framed by long, loose strands of a vibrant red that leaves a lasting impression. Her frame may slender be, but the lean muscles are easily visable on arms that are bared at the shoulder by a straight-necked tunic of dark red under a bodice of studded leather dyed so dark a reddish-brown as to seem black by comparison. The tunic's sleeves fall over matching leather gloves, the right fingerless while the left is distended as if to have the appearance of claws instead of fingers. The tunic falls to mid-thigh split up each side for easy movement and is secured about the waist by dull leather belt from which the outlines of two scabbards can be seen, one slightly smaller than the other. Underneath this is worn a pair of studded leather breeches to match the bodice over which a pair of cloth pants split up each outer edge of the leg and then reattached over the leather leggings with metallic rings through the cloth. The bottom edge of the cloth is tucked into calf-high boots edged in metal, but soundless when she walks. Over the knees lay discreet guards, soft and flexible to bend easily without sound. As the dusky rose lips draw into a cruel semblance of a smile, there is a bare glint of light reflected from within the hood, and a brief outlining of the beginnings of a pair of horns twisting back above the ears, their end lost within the confines of the hood. A final scent follows faintly in her wake to those with the senses to pick it out, a scent reminiscent of falling rain but with an acidic aftertaste.

Previous:
A skulking woman of 5'7 in height, Irilym is a taint on the world that many believe shouldn't even exist. She, of course, begs to differ. Her physical features are darkened, and almost, in some way, feral, or perhaps more primal. Skin the color of tanned leather looks as if it's gently weathered under the sun for years, but is smoothed over her form to give her face a youthful glint. Her eyes show the years of wisdom held, though, and stand apart as a defining feature for they are an icy azure blue and slitted like a dragon's. In fact, look closer and you can see the small patches of scales over her left eye and running down her arms marking her draconic heritage. Two small horns have also begun to curl up from her temples. As for clothing she prefers darker colors in which to skulk, the material heavy to block the chills of Old Man Winter. Studded leather peeks from under the dark reds the comprise her straight topped shirt and sleeves, the cut and design leaving her shoulders bare. Leather breeches in the same color and design cloth her bottom half. A large, sweeping cloak of black drapes over her, the hood pulled up over her "flame red" hair, hiding her hair's length and style. The final touches find her feet shod in matching leather boots, her hands covered by fingerless gloves to show claw-tipped fingers, and a short sword and daggers slung around her waist on her belt.

*Note, this picture is a very good representation of how Irilym looks (yes it IS a picture drawn of Irilym, not another character), but her scales are more shadowy black than red now that she's no longer bonded with the balor.

Maelthra Velsharess


User Image
  • Name: Maelthra Velsharess
    Lady Matriarch of House Velsharess, Mandate of the Ward of Travelers, Sixth House of Sel Oloth

    Her name was given to her by Re'shak as a sort of jest at her true identity (it means "Dragon Queen" in drow) but she took it anyways. Though she no longer retains the title on the whole, those arcanists in Sel Oloth still loyal to Maelthra refer to her still as Ventash'maerl, which roughly translates to mean "Mistress of the Arcane". Sel Oloth, which means "New Darkness", is the metropolitan expansion of the former House Sril've Cress which Maelthra is a part of.
  • Age: Appears in her adult prime
  • Race: Drow
  • Eye color: Piercing, icy blue
  • Skin color: A deep ebony, like a starless sky
  • Body build: Standing at a mere 4'10", Maelthra is rather petite with a light and delicate build. Don't let her short stature fool you, though. That icy stare could make a giant seem small by comparison wink
  • Hair color/length/style: Soft snowy white usually carefully arranged into a style befitting of a noblewoman.
  • Clothing: Maelthra always wears dresses suitable for a noble drow made of the finest spider silks and decorated or edged with other lavish materials such as velvet, belzarine, etc etc as well as precious gems, metals, and needlework. Like most drow, she prefers darker hues of black, gray, purple, red, and blue
  • Armor: Generally none. The only time Maelthra has worn armor was during the routine training required of all house members of the Sril've Cress where she wore light leathers like Irilym might wear, and even then few saw her in it (and none who didn't know her true identity).
  • Weapons: Maelthra generally uses magic exclusively. Only in dire need would she pick up a sword (as she doesn't want to break her disguise)
  • Jewelry: Maelthra generally wears fine silver chains with gemstones to match her clothing in her hair. Her dress often is decked with a matching brooch nestled at the apex of the neckline between her breasts. She also always wears the shimmering silver web-patterned ring of the Sril've Cress on the ring finger of her right hand. Any other jewelry is at the artists discretion so long as she keeps her general noblewoman's appearance (i.e. nothing too gaudy or extreme)
  • Character Personality: As Maelthra Irilym's personality is much the same except Maelthra's personality might often be compared to that of a queen on her throne. She is as frigid as ice, stern and unyielding as stone, and haughty to a tee. However there is a diplomatic side to the frigid lady of House Velsharess, one which is more frequently seen since the move to Sel Oloth and the redistribution of power which granted her dominion over the travelers and foreign dignitaries. Because of her station and role in the city, Maelthra nearly if not always dresses to impress with an array of ever changing finery fit for a queen. She will not settle for anything less.
  • Alignment: Neutral Evil
  • Class: Sorceress
  • Other: Maelthra is Irilym and Irilym is Maelthra. Maelthra is the facade Irilym took on with Artanaz made her the Ilharess of the drow house he ruled. Knowing that no drow would allow themselves to be knowingly ruled by another race if they could help it, she took on the form of a dark elf of noble blood and stature.


Description:
If big things come in small packages then the woman before you is a prime example of just that. She is small, slim, and petite, like a dark skinned porceline doll that seems almost fragile and like she would easily break, but though she may be delicate in frame she carries herself with the calm self-assured poise of a queen or diplomat, a trait further reflected in her proud, ice-blue eyes that seem to look down upon the world despite relativity. Her dress is that of a noblewoman, a fine garment of dark midnight blue-violet silk with luxurious snow-white accents of soft, plush fur whose skirt is split up one side to allow for ease of movement. The dress sleeves fall to the wrist where a plume of white lace falls over her delicate hands stopping just far enough back to clearly show a silver ring on her right ring finger bearing a shimmering web design. Long matching boots reach to her mid thigh made of dyed doe leather so as to be soft and pliable. A black cloak hemmed in interwoven raven colored feathers shades her facial features outside of the safety of the tavern's hearth, but when pushed back reveals long, snowy hued hair draped and feathered about her heart-shaped face and decorated with fine silver-links of chain holding pale blue iol, dark obsidian, and glistening pearl stones along their length. Matching stones and links decorate the bodice of her dress leading to a center brooch nestled at the apex of the neckline between her breasts. Finally, a pair of soft riding gloves are often hooked on her belt in front of a simple dagger, the only weapon upon her person.

Storyline/Timeline Thus Far
Note: All dates are in real time...helps me keep track xd



  • (Sept 15th 2001) - Irilym is created when Dragona is kidnapped by Vile Bane, one of the Viyach Lemarg who twists and corrupts a part of her soul. At this point the taint is well hidden only manifesting in cases of extreme emotional distress.
  • (Nov 2001) - Forthcoming
