    Character Details:
  • Name: Ariadne
  • Age: 29
  • Race: Human
  • Eye color: Brilliant blue
  • Skin color: Average
  • Body build: A bit shorter than average, around 120-130 lbs, but otherwise about average for someone her age
  • Hair color/length/style: Auburn (reddish-brown) worn long with the lengths twisted and turned into all sorts of helter skelter designs that change all the time.
  • Unusual Features: She's insane?
  • Tattoos/Markings: None visible if any
  • Clothing: Clerical robes beneath a breastplate with a cloak wrapped over that, all in dark black save any symbols or accents stiched into the clothing which are always a vibrant gree or pale green-white color. The most common symbol on her clothing is her god, Bane's, holy symbol (a dark gauntleted hand clutched into a fist with rays of bright green and greenish white energy streaming through the fingers) either stitched over her left breast or etched into her breastplate.
  • Armor: Ari generally wears a breastplate, gauntlets, and leg/shin guards. Aside from that, her robes are enchanted and she carries an enchanted shield.
  • Weapons: Ari wields a morning star alongside her spells
  • Jewelry: her holy symbol strung around her neck and often tucked into her robes.
  • Character Personality: Utterly and irrevocably schizophrenic. Often she is encountered in an child-like state in which her actions, while devious and sadistic, resemble nothing more than a child at play. Other times, especially when enraged or if she feels done wrong by, she succumbs to a violent, sadistic personality. Other times, especially when she receives visions from her god, she reverts to a happy-go-lucky seer who almost seems sane, but always speaks in rhymes. The list of personalities goes on an on, but most recently a new personality has taken hold since the disappearance of her squadron's former leader, Garak. This new personality is cold, calculative, and tyrannical accepting nothing less than complete and total compliance. It can only be assumed that either the loss of her leader fractured Ariadne's personalities further, or her god finally decided to step in before she drove her squadron insane (and her squadron certainly believes it's the latter and thanks Bane daily lol )
  • Class: Cleric/Blackguard/Divine Seer
  • Backstory: There are things in this world that no human eye or mind should ever percieve. Ariadne is living proof of just that. She joined the clergy of Bane out of spite never really thinking that she would get too deep into the tyrannical god's dogma, but Ari had a natural penchant for divination and that was where she got into trouble. She saw things she shouldn't have seen, things which fractured her fragile human mind. She had enough will to keep herself from devolving into a drooling, blank-eyed mess, but the damage was done and Ari would never be the same. She reverted to a child-like personality rationalizing the terrible things she was doing as a game. The whole world was just a game and no one was really getting hurt...right?


So your sitting there, enjoying yourself, when the sound of mad laughter reaches your ears. Curiosity does its thing and you turn and look, your eyes taking in this woman who seems to be around 28 or 29 summers. She stands a bit shorter than the average human female, topping out at a neat 5'4" tall and appears to weigh in the neighborhood of 120-130 lbs. Her face is usually drawn into deep contemplation, her ocean blue eyes seeming wide as if they're taking in the entire world at once. Her hair is a dull reddish-brown, best described as an auburn color, and exotically braided, woven, and styled around her face, giving her the look of a mystic. Black seems to be her favorite color as she swathes herself in it, wearing a cowled black cloak over her other clothing. Armor can be seen just under the cloak, the type looking to be some kind of cold-iron make.
The edges of a holy symbol can be seen around the neckline which seems to be some type of circle of dark green with greenish-white shafts of energy touching the edges. What ever else the symbol consists of seems to be hidden underneath the cloak. A plain, black, cold-iron forged shield is strapped over her back with a morning star hanging in the belt-loop at her side. She tends to hunch over at times, keeping her hands drawn up to herself, while at other times she may walk and talk normally...the world never may know if she's truely mad or not.

This picture seemed a good comparison with Ari's looniness. It's from the Wizard's Magic: The Gathering tcg and it (c) to them and all that good stuff 3nodding

    Character Details:
  • Name: Ariadne (WoW Version)
  • Age: Unknown
  • Race: Undead (Forsaken)
  • Eye color: Glowing blue
  • Skin color: Pale bone white
  • Body build: Ari was slightly shorter than average to begin with, and as an undead has a very thin, bony build.
  • Hair color/length/style: Dusky, lackluster reddish-brown worn long with the lengths twisted and turned into all sorts of helter skelter designs that change all the time.
  • Unusual Features: Like many undead, Ari's skin has suffered from rot and decay.
  • Tattoos/Markings: None usually visable
  • Clothing: Various robes of enchanted cloth reinforced with leather generally in dark grays, greens, browns, and black The clothing is often stitched with demonic runes or patterned with skull motifs, an homage to the dark, fel powers from which Ari as a warlock gains her strength. Sometimes she will wear a matching hood and depending on her mood it may cover her hair, or she may have made holes in it to accommodate braids or a pair of boar's tails (see ref).
  • Armor: Ari generally wears a shoulder guards, gauntlets, and leg/shin guards (though they usually don't show beneath the robes). Aside from that, her robes are enchanted and she carries an enchanted shield.
  • Weapons: Ari wields a staff of varying design or a caster's dagger/sword and a spell focus (usually an orb or book of some sort) alongside her spells
  • Jewelry: It's not uncommon for Ari to wear an amulet of some fel design (you have artistic license to design something appropriate for a warlock).
  • Character Personality: Through whatever ordeals she faced before regaining her free will and joining the Forsaken, Ari has been driven incurably mad and suffers from schizophrenia and a fractured personality. While her actions may at times seem simply like a child at play, there is a often a malicious intelligence behind them. There is clearly a schism in her mind between control of the dangerous and destructive fel power that she wields and some suppressed vengeful desire to watch the world burn. What should cause concern for most is that the glue that seems to hold the last of her "sanity" (if it can be called that) together is a child-like mentality who is easily fascinated by 'pretty magicks'
  • Class: Warlock
  • Other: Ari is usually accompanied by either her felhunter Khuudrom or her felguard Akrakryz.
