STAGE:Sigel FEL ESSENCE:Unoxidized Silver SOUL:Tea Plant ALIGNMENT:Neutral Good RUNE:Feoh - "Wealth"
APPEARANCE:As many of her acquaintances often say, Ethiriel appears as if she had stepped - er, floated - out of a Lord of the Rings film. Very elven in appearance, she has a tendency of catching the attention of onlookers (though most Raevens do anyway). Stemming from her skull like horns, silver branches decorate Ethiriel like a crown, contrasting against her chocolate tresses. Similar branches protrude from her back, growing straight from her shoulder blades in a wing-like display, though they are completely immobile. Like all Sigels, she lacks legs; instead, she dons a ribbon that appears as if it's made of stained parchment. Her eyes are a pale green, pupils clouded from a strange case of cataracts that she had been born with.
PERSONALITY:Despite being a calm and gentle creature, Ethiriel prefers to take charge as much as possible. Mostly blinded by cataracts of some kind, she may seem rather reserved when approached, but her kindness is shown in a more formal way. Though her speech is refined and soft, she can be assertive when necessary.This doesn't mean she's timid by any means, but she generally allows others to start conversation. Her speech patterns are almost regal in manner, even when exclusively in the presence of close companions. No matter the occasion, the Raeven is sure to greet you in a formal fashion, complete with a polite bow and a small peck on each cheek. While generally content, it isn't impossible to make her irate; but when angry, she will do her best to remain lady-like and quiet or possibly even leave the room entirely. Violence is not common for her, but she can become quite catty and sharp tongued if provoked. Aroma is what she uses to identify things or people, preferring some company over others due to their scents. She has no sense or care for personal space, unless the second party states otherwise, and will often attempt to get closer than one finds comfortable in order to see, smell or touch you. It is rare for her touch to be anything more than a way to map out your features, an exception being if she enjoys the way a particular part of you feels.
LIKES:Tea, hot water, listening to others, mindless tasks DISLIKES:Rudeness, irrational behavior, loud noises, thunder FEARS:Harsh weather, soundless entities DREAMS:???
FEEDING:Soaking - Ethiriel feeds by soaking rust, patina and other metal tarnishes through her skin, though preferably through her fingertips - as well as soaking in full bits of silver. Soaking in hot water doesn't necessarily feed her, but it relaxes her and renews her energy which is effective if there are no tarnished metals around. She is also able to obtain nutrition from natural light. She can also soak in silver for nourishment.
POWERS:
🙝 Calming Pheromones (passive) - Releases a sweet, tea-like aroma that calms the nerves of those near. Cannot be used on self.
🙝 High Durability (passive) - Allows her to take high amounts of damage thanks to the unbreakable silver. Exposed silver feels no pain, only temperature..
🙝 Healing/Comforting Touch (active) - Ethiriel's touch can remove pain from an injury and, to a degree, heal them -- in exchange, she has absolutely no pain tolerance. Cannot be used on self.
🙝 Healing Ailments (active/passive) - With the natural healing and health properties of the tea she produces, Ethiriel is able to infuse it with anything to help aid any illness in varying ways..
🙝 Shield (active) - Ethiriel spreads thin sheets of silver on specific parts of her body as a second skin, protecting herself from small amounts of damage.
🙝 Silver Manipulation (active) - Able to manipulate her own silver, as well as silver around her, Ethiriel can change their shape or form.
TRAITS:
🙝 Wings - Her silver wings are immobile and are actually connected right to her shoulder blades. The closest they could get to "flapping" would be for her to shrug rapidly.
🙝 Crown - The crown resting on her head isn't actually resting; it's attached. Like horns, they protrude from her skull. The left side is much longer than the right; the right only barely reaching past her ear.
🙝 Bones - Just like her crown and her wings, her bones are made of silver. It is impossible for her to sustain and injury so grievous that they would break - but the same can't be said for her joints.
🙝 Immunity - With her soul being a plant, Ethiriel is immune to all plant-based allergens. Included with her immune system, pet dander does not bother her either. It is hard to make her sick, but not impossible.
NEUTRAL GOODis known as the "Benefactor" alignment. A Neutral Good character is guided by his conscience and typically acts altruistically, without regard for or against Lawful precepts such as rules or tradition. A Neutral Good character has no problems with co-operating with lawful officials, but does not feel beholden to them. In the event that doing the right thing requires the bending or breaking of rules, they do not suffer the same inner conflict that a Lawful Good character would.
🙝 Endurance: 31 ~ 70 - Having most of her structure made of silver makes this her highest stat. She doesn't tire very quickly, and she has a very strong defense.
🙝 Intelligence: 29 ~ 64 – Ethiriel is one to use her brain, even for the littlest things. Sometimes she may over-analyze, though she generally doesn't express her concerns. She will not hesitate to correct.
🙝 Friendliness: 20 ~ 63 – Having grown from her behavior as a Frei, Ethiriel has become quite a bit more friendly and open to others. She's much more likely to join in conversation and appreciates company.
🙝 Creativity: 22 ~ 58 – Having become more adept with her hands, Ethiriel enjoys creating, whether it be a physical or vocal art. She also enjoys the creativity of others.
🙝 Humor: 21 ~ 52 – Ethiriel has opened up to humor, appreciating it more than she used to. She can find enjoyment in a much more expansive manner.
🙝 Charisma: 18 ~ 49 – While she's still not much of a flirt, Ethiriel has become a bit more charismatic and personable. She's able to pick up subtle hints a lot easier and will often try to reciprocate.
🙝 Strength: 24 ~ 48 – Strength isn't her greatest stat, relying mostly on endurance. Ethiriel as enough strength to take care of herself, however.
🙝 Magic: 27 ~ 46 – Ethiriel is only able to use her magic sparingly and usually just on herself. Self defense is her main use of magic.

Anyone that had ever worn silver jewelry would know that after a while, silver will turn a darker shade. This process is called tarnish, or oxidation. It is the reaction of sulphur present in hydrogen sulphide from air. However, this interesting specimen had not, or could not be tarnished, even if forcefully oxidized in sulfur. It remains bright and shiny, without any sign of aging at all. Now wouldn't this be a jeweler's dream come true? However, this particular piece of silver is not malleable at all as well, no amount of heat could melt it, and no amount of force could crush it.
Native to China, South and Southeast Asia, this type of tea plant is cultivated and harvested all over the world. It is an evergreen shrub, trimmed down to six feet when cultivated for its leaves. Depending on the amount of oxidation, Camellia sinensis produces many types of tea, including green tea. Mostly consumed in China and (most famously) Japan, green tea has a sweet aroma and a usually pale green tint.

NEDHUDIR border collie, age 3
Since joining the Knight household, there have been major advancements in giving Ethiriel more agency rather than keeping her cooped up and inexperienced with the world. One of these changes came from an agreement between Henry and Gabe in the form of a guide dog. He is a calm sort and very well trained, listening immediately to commands. Ethiriel chose to name him Nedhudir which has become a subtle running joke in the household due to its difficulty to spell and say. Gabe, instead, calls him by various Tolkien elf names like Legolas.

746 McMorris Ave Apt 103 Isle de Gambino
While it's rather busy, Leo nestled in the more flashy area of Gambino. Just near the ocean, he and Ethiriel live contently. There are a lot of people coming and going from the apartments, but that suits the two of them just fine.
Leo keeps the apartment s**c and span, making sure it's clean at all times -- both for his own sake and Ethiriel's. While she doesn't have feet, he keeps the habit for future living as well as just needing the place to be tidy. Now that there's a dog in the house, the two of them take every opportunity to go on walks together.
The walls are decorated with scenic photos taken and altered by Leo and the furniture is very modern.
Ethiriel's room is bare bones, save for the silver used to get around. There are no photos anywhere, or any decorations at all, save for the mirror attached to her dresser as there is no need for them. Her bed is made at all times and has simple, satin sheets. Leo plans to print some black and white photos with the silver-style development so that Ethiriel could possibly see them.

AINA (Floating Rain & Pomegranate) Friend Ethiriel was quite fond of Aina the moment she met her, finding her charming and quite adorable. She's grown to learn more of her and her interests the more she babysits the Pomegranate Cutie and enjoys whatever time she can get with her. She almost sees Aina as a daughter.
CRUZ (Forceful Mistletoe & Crocodile) Former Friend Ethiriel met Cruz when she was young and still with her previous guardian. Possibly Ethirel's closest friend, she would never turn down the chance to hang out with Cruz. He is always willing to help her in any way that he can and she appreciates every moment of it. She has no problems with feeding him and wishes to repay him in any way that she can for his kindness. They don't quite see eye to eye on a few things, making communication difficult at times, or rather, wires get crossed. Ethiriel has found it a good idea that they stop communicating for both of their sakes after losing touch.
LAZARUS (Eternal Flames & Incubus) Friend Having met a few times over the years, the silver Raevan is fond of the Incubus and enjoys spending time with him. She relishes his calm company, and often his bluntness can either be charming or helpful.
RHEDEFRE (Broken Dawn & White Stag) Friend Met when with Leo at a wedding reception, Ethiriel is quite taken with Cesc, always enjoying his company. He has always been helpful with her handicap, even from the get-go. His kindness, in her eyes, has been boundless. A distance formed after her awkward and impromptu confession and feels that she needs to come to terms with things.
ZUL (Lava Ice Rock & Baphomet) Friend Having met when young, Zul has also helped Ethiriel when she needed it most. Taken with him as well, she wouldn't turn down the chance to meet up again. He has helped her take steps to her own 'freedom.'
Ethiriel has also met Anastacia, Cordelia, Iorek, Luka, Lulu, Melisande, Rivener, Eden, Lorin and Zurine.
ANITA BISHOP (Cruz) Acquaintance While spending a lot of time with Cruz, Ethiriel doesn't know Anita very well. She's very kind and helpful, even giving the tea Frei a nickname, but the Frei herself doesn't know much about Anita.
Ethiriel has also met Duncan, Justin, Claire, Vivi, Zeke, Jezabroux, Alex and Ebony.
GABE KNIGHT (Ethiriel & Henry) Former Friend While Gabe is often standoffish and rude, he is normally kind to Ethiriel and she's come to appreciate her time with him. He has been absent a lot and has caused Ethiriel to worry, and she hopes he is alright. After a consensual decision between herself and Henry in regards to currently keeping in touch, she has found it best to not reach out to Gabe.
HENRY KNIGHT (Ethiriel & Leo) Former Guardian Henry holds the best intentions in mind, leaving him as her second and former guardian. Due to some issues at the hospital with the begrudging parent of a former patient, he's on the run for his own safety and is out of reach by everyone.
Ethiriel has also met ???

CRUZ (Forceful Mistletoe & Crocodile) Acquaintance Leo vaguely remembers Cruz, but not enough to reach out for Ethiriel's sake.
RHEDEFRE (Broken Dawn & White Stag) Acquaintance Rhedefre left a decent imprint in Leo's mind and he remembers Ethiriel being excited to see him when he dropped her off at the hospital, so he assumes that they're still friends.
Leo has also met Luka and Lazarus.
ANITA BISHOP (Cruz) Acquaintance Having lost all of his chances, Leo's sure that Anita wants nothing to do with him, so no attempts for contact have been made.
Leo has also met Vivi.
??? ???
Leo has also met ---.
