/ / Telnith Dareis Gallagher  Description: Telnith is fourteen years old, she is a female, though she could disguise as a boy if she tried, and weighs at a hundred and eleven pounds and a height of five foot six. Originally a child of Flandor, she was captured during the battle and taken in as a Slave by a red-haired man whose name remains unknown to her. She is apart of a race called 'The Elder', which is a race of beings known for having life spans that far outstretch humans. Elders are also said to have powers that relate to the mind, in olden days, in the time of technology when man relied on machines and computers, they referred to her powers as Psychokinesis. Telnith's psychic powers branch out to many forms and styles, however she is young and untrained and therefore limited in what she can do. As of now she can only do simple things: telekinesis, minor telepathy (Thought projection from her own to others), and short distance teleportation (going as far as twenty feet per "jump"). Most Elders begin manifesting they're powers at the beginning of puberty, unfortunately Flandor, her home, was destroyed and her parents with it leaving her without anyone to teach her.
Most Elder's, those that are left, carry a crystal that is passed through the generations from parent to child, and with the crystal they're powers can be increased exponentially. However the origins of the crystals, and their workings are unknown even to the Elderians.
Characteristics: Introverted, Adamant, Frank, Haggard, and most of all short-tempered. Telnith is one of the most stubborn people someone could ever hope to meet. She never gives up, and once she sets her mind to something she won't stop until she is successful or utterly put down, no matter how shameful her acts may be. "Courage and foolishness lie on the same line." She can easily lose her temper, and if she is unable or willing to physically get back at the one for blowing her top, she will do so through a mental battle. She dislikes honesty, and will speak the truth even if it hurts. In return she expects the same sort of treatment. At a young age she displayed a curiousity for the world and things, even now she holds a curiousity for things she finds unsuppressable and often follows the object in order to satisfy her curiousity.
She is naturally haggard in appearance, and when one looks at her she can give the impression of someone who hardly sleeps and has probably touched her hair with a comb or brush once a new moon (if that).
She doesn't speak, at least not often, and so convey's her words through thoughts and images she projects into peoples heads. Even that is done sparingly, never sure just what she might share she would rather keep secret, and so she relies mostly on communication through hand motions, pointing, or gestures.
Background: Born as the only daughter of the married couple, Cynthia Concetta and Aniello Gallagher, an aranged marriage in order to help preserve the Elder bloodline and keep them pure, the two couple quickly fell in love, and moved to Flandor, where Telnith was born, and the start of a new life for they're family could be made.
Now more on to Telnith. As a toddler, she was naturally curious who would crawl over and grab something. Often it was something dangerous, and her parents would be forced to pry her fingers away and attempt to explain to her what was safe to grab and what wasn't. Of course she would purposely return to grab it a second time, doing more for the attention provided by her parents then a lack of ignorance on her part. Of course it was because of this curiousity that led her to discover much, often finding "hiding" places no one else could, and it was due to the knowledge of these hiding places she remained safe against the onslaught that was performed by Lilith on Flandor and it's inhabitants. In fact she probably would have remained hidden had she never come out, ironically in curiousity to see if the "demons", as she thought of them, had left. Unfortunately she crossed the path of a red-haired young man, who at first attempted to tell her to run, even going as far as handing her a cloak to use to conceal herself for when she escaped, but when another appeared, one whom she assumed he knew from the way he acted, he concealed the cloak and in a second she was unconscious and thrown over his shoulder. When she awoke she found herself with others from Flandor, many she knew from passing by in the streets, the group of survivors were informed, by the man who went by the name of Raigon, that they were slaves, and would have the choice of working for them or dying. At first there was opposition, Telnith watching as many attempted to rise up and start of a rebellion, but the attempts were all thwarted and the slaves were all severely punished even if they weren't apart of the rebellions. In the end, many gave up hope and decided to become passive with the ones who chained them. Telnith, on the otherhand, decided that it was then to start working on her own way of escaping. Unfortunately, every attempt to escape ended in failure, and rather then her death she was thrown back to work and punished in accordance to how far she had gotten. To her it was almost as if it were a game to toy with her and the "hope", a lack of better words, that she held. The idea that they were toying with her, if that's what they truely were doing, fueled her motivation to find a way to break free from Lilith and seek help from outside Elexair.
Player: Haha, well... It's me again, unfortunately not Jing but I think I'm going to like this character nevertheless. =D

/ / Telnith Dareis Gallagher  Description
Tall as she was as a child, there was little surprise to be expected when Telnith shot up in height by almost half a foot; now towering over men of average height and able to look Delfian eye to eye at six feet. Her weight, which she keeps to herself, is just as she wants it.
Physically Telnith is a fit and healthy person, thanks to Delfian, and though her height has at times posed a problem with getting into or out of small spaces she has learned to become flexible not just for combat but also in order to be more compact so she is able to compact herself and fit into otherwise tight spaces. She is now unable to disguise herself as a male, her body having filled in and matured these last two years. Not that she needs to, her powers more than sufficient in laying a veil of illusion over those within the area.
Despite spending most of the last two years underground, save for the "field trips" that involved her traveling to Elexair for her training, her complexion is as dark as ever. The greatest change, one that Telnith is hardly aware of, is the color change of her eyes. Since her training began, and Delfian's influence over her grew, the irises slowly took on a purple tinge. What started out as only a few scattered streaks, slowly grew over time until the tinge darkened and became more dominant. Now her eyes are a balanced mixture of blue and purple, the purple becoming more prominent over time. Her eyes have also give the sense of being closed off to the world. Just as she has shielded her mind from most outside influence, she has shielded her eyes so to not let her emotions or reactions show so easily. Her hair has also undergone some changes, now being a shade darker then before, and has been cut short so to hang around her ears but not prove a distraction. She has cut all of her hair save for a tail she has allowed to grow long, tied and thrown over her shoulder and left to hand beside her pendant.
Her entire wardrobe is supplied by Delfian, closely matching his own but lacking a large number of the secret pouches and bearing fewer items than his. An easily picked out difference between the two, should they be standing next to one another with hoods up, is the necklace that she purposely wears on the outside of her clothing. It is the Eldarian Pendant, or one of many, that is passed on from parent to child when said parent believes there child has earned the trust and has matured enough to wear it. The pendant, as said before, enhances an Eldarian's mental powers exponentially when used properly. Almost enough for Telegenic that with further and far more intense training she could match Delfian in terms of power.
When the pendant was returned to her, the very night Delfian took Telnith under wing, she swore an oath that she would free her people.
Since then the pendant has acted as a reminder, or rather for a time. The pendant has been having the opposite effect, rather serving as a reminder it has been giving Telnith a sense of encouragement whenever consciously aware of its presence or looking at it. An encouragement for the life being led now, and the one she will continue.
Characteristics
Telnith has a strong and compelling curiosity when it comes to understanding just how things work; taking a great amount of pleasure in taking things apart or seeing into things in order to better see how they work. Another trait one will be quick to spot with Telnith is that she has a very adventurous spirit. She strives on action, and one will likely see, based on what decisions she makes, that she dances on the border of Fearlessness and Daredevil. It is because of her desire for action and that she can become very bored, very quickly. Being such an action oriented person, one will rarely see Telnith standing still in one place too long with nothing to do. Telnith is not one for standing, or sitting for that matter, and seems to have personal problems with long-term planning, thinking them too tedious and not immediate enough for her tastes-- though because of Delfian's training she has some skill in planning things out to work in her favor.
She is an adaptable person, whose actions can be considered spontaneous but only because of her incessant focus on details that gives her the advantage, what she thinks as an advantage at least, to respond to what is before her as quickly and efficiently as she can move.
Telnith is exceptionally good with logical analysis, and seems to enjoy employing the skill for practical concerns. She typically has strong reasoning skills, but should one spend enough time around her one will see that she has no interest, or even patience, in theories or even concepts unless she can see come immediate practical use. In short she cannot stand to beat around the bush, unless subtlety is required to get what she wants.
She is a greatly independent person, someone one will learn, and is not known to rely on others but rather push herself to accomplish what she set out to do. She has little tolerance in the beliefs of others, with few exceptions, and will blatantly disregard them for the sole reason that they may impair her own ability to maneuver.
When the matter of morals and ethics comes into play, either her own or those of people she respects, she is fiercely loyal. As such, Telnith rarely violates said guidelines, and when it comes to her Master, Delfian the Bloodletter, or her brothers-in-arms, those she can trust at least, she is a loyal person.
Background
Two years have passed since Telnith was bought by Delfian the Bloodletter. From a Flandorian slave who worked at first within the mines, to a tavern maid (still a slave for Lilith), to --her largest shock of the three positions-- the apprentice of the Clan Leader of the Black Shadow Clan. Being apprenticed to Delfian, Telnith's training was intense and almost unforgiving. There were three focused to her training, the one she probably had the least trouble with being imparted with Delfian's knowledge of the arcane; teaching her the multiple ways to use her powers, which so closely resembled his own. Learning the layouts of the labyrinth that was the Proving Grounds, and being made to run through selected routes without setting off a single trap (something she quickly learned she did not want to do if she could help it and if so not to be caught in it). She had to spar regularly with members of the Black Shadow, never facing the same one consecutively and always with a different weapon to train her innate ability to adapt and be flexible. Assassination drills, meditations, and a multitude of other tests and trails were how most, if not all, of her days were spent. Telnith, however, was far from disgruntled from these things. The encouragement he gave her influenced her, unexpectedly for her at the beginning of things, to try harder and do better.
As time passed, and she became lost in the new life that quickly became as natural as the one she had before her enslavement, and as time passed and the influence both Delfian and the Black Shadow grew on her she slowly began to think less and less of her old life. The once burning feeling she felt when it came to the oath she made to personally free the slaves Lilith seems to pride themselves on obtaining became but a low pile of burning embers surrounded by flames larger than it. She had important things to do now, or rather had expectations to live up.
Two years having passed, Telnith almost holds the position of second in command of the Black Shadow clan. Oddly enough Telnith has a certain level of respect from the Black Shadow, though most of it, she learned, is due to the respect, and even fear, the men feel for Delfian rather than for anything she herself has done. It is clear though that even for her young age that she is not someone to be trifled with. She does remains still as an apprentice to Delfian, for the reason there are still things to learn and she has further yet to grow before she can fully fill in the title as 2nd in command. Yet up until this point she has been successful in living up to the title of Delfian's apprentice, the man personally making sure to that.
Weapon(s)/Abilities
As an Eldarian, and a full-blooded one at that, Telnith inherited the Telepathic abilities commonly associated with those who knew of her people. Teleportation, Telepathy, and telekinesis are but a portion of what she is capable of performing. A number of the skills and techniques she now has have all been learned from Delfian, who vastly expanded not just her knowledge and control but her even her imagination and skill. Even without Delfian's teachings, Telnith has discovered a few lesser abilities and techniques, and is always testing the limits and flexibility of her telepathy.
For the longest time, Telnith was without a weapon. She had neither skill nor knowledge in holding, much less using, weapons. In order to find her a weapon she was most comfortable using, Delfian would give her various weapons whenever she was to spar with a Black Shadow member. It was almost a month before it was decided that Telnith had an affinity for roped weapons. Chains, steel wires, meteor hammers, flying claws and whips, all of the like Telnith seemed to feel more than comfortable with, though it took time before she could successfully use these weapons without hurting herself almost as much as her sparring partner.
That said, Telnith carries on her personal body an array of roped weapons. Hidden across the length of her clothing, though they usually eject from the sleeves of her jacket or pants, Telnith is capable of striking suddenly and with little warning but a flick of the wrist or an out thrown hand. Unfortunately all of her weapons, except for perhaps the meteor hammers, have little real power to their attacks. She is a person whose weapons are based on speed, control along with a high level of dexterity, and by catching her opponent off guard and even instilling fear into them by inflicting pain. And also due to the problem that roped weapons have no solid structure she is unable to physically guard against attacks and must rely solely on her ability to evade and trick her opponent.
Player:She is still Telnith, obviously, but this profile is just an update so people know the difference between the Telnith in Part 2 and Part 3. Reason for doing so is because the amount of influence Delfian and the Black Shadows will have on her will greatly change who she is. Not to mention physical growth, and various other things I could list if I thought hard enough on it.
Anyways, here she is, and hope she is acceptable. The reason I hope so is because I have spent a surprising amount of time into her, and while I would complain about doing something for lengths of time I enjoyed working on her and sincerely hope I can live up to her profile.
