Physical Description:
Aelyx is a bit odd in appearance. She stands at 5'8" tall, lithe and flat chested. She seems to always be attired in rich color when she gets a chance, usually deep greens and soft pinks that make her almost seem a little too ostentatious. Her skin is a deep olive, a bit lighter now than usual, with odd eyes. One is a soft, warm chocolate, something almost welcoming, and the other? A chilled amber with an almost golden tint. Her lips are thin, usually pulled in to a frown. Her hair is shaggy, about chin-length, and colored a vibrant green with dyes she affords with a stipend from her mother. Her figure seems more strong-built than most women's, but that is for a whole different reason.
Personality:
No matter if you want to hear it or not, Aelyx will find a way to let someone know just what's on her mind. If you ask her opinion, she will happily offer you just what she thinks is the solution to the problem, and direct you down the right path. Her brain often goes a mile a minute, and there's never a moment that she will lie to anyone. It's not in her ability, and if she tries? She's horrible at it. Completely incapable, and honestly very awkward. It doesn't mattter if it's about the small things, or the large things, she will always find a way to let people know the truth of whatever happened. It's for the best, she swears, even if she can sometimes be a bit aggressive in her delivery.
Despite the fact that she can sometimes deliver her lines with a dripping sarcasm that could outdo even an irritated weyrwoman, Aelyx is a charming young thing. She's able to endear herself to people with a sweet smile, and a head canted to the side, with eyes alight. She's able to create elegant turns of phrase and be as charming as the devil if she needs to be. There's a sense of sensuous pride in everything she does, and it's something she likes to think makes it hard to say no. This can come across poorly as sometimes she gets rather sarcastic and sharp. After all, if her charisma is met poorly, she sees no reason not to just let herself be a bit harsher with the people around her.
She's always pushing herself to be her best, and to get ahead of the game. Aelyx wants nothing more than to push herself to be the best at anything that anyone can throw at her so that she can make sure that no one gets left behind. After all, she herself is the best, isn't she? Her driven nature oft comes across as pure arrogance, because of her sense of perfection that must be met.
Positive Trait List Honest, Charismatic, Driven
Negative Trait List Sarcastic, Arrogant, Blunt
History:
Aelyx was born a boy to a pair of parents in Nabol. He was a holdbrat from the start, raised wild and rather delighted to run free. His father was a creative storyteller of a Harper, his mother the type to stay at home and watch from afar. He learned the craft of spinning tales, and started to find his own truth early in life. He took to glasscraft after watching someone in the hold working. It took almost no time for him to begin his craft, taking to it with little trouble, enjoying the work of making goblets and pottery with deft, small hands. It wasn't until he was around the age of 9 that he began to realize that perhaps HE wasn't the right thing to say for this child's case.
He met a woman named Loviana, who was a Greenrider that occasionally visited the Hold for...whatever reason. If you asked her now, she can hardly remember why. She just remembers meeting the husky-voiced female that suddenly shifted her perception. The family he'd been raised in had been open. His father and mother both had people they saw on the side, his mother a courtesan for private clients, his father entertaining privately, and occasionally he'd met people like her...people that had him realizing that perhaps the long hair, and the preference for skirts and colors that were said to be unusual. It was Loviana that helped HER realize who she'd been all along.
It was around turn 12 that Aelyx began presenting as female, calling herself a girl, which was openly accepted by family, though she lost most of her friends. She became the daughter of a successful family, rather than a son, and began to color her hair to reflect her new self. Her hair changed, dark roots with deep green all over, her odd eyes often accentuated with kohl and lips painted to accentuate her newfound feminine self. Aelyx grew in to her own state of being, grew in to being a young woman, and when she turned sixteen, was searched for Western by a bluerider friend of Loviana's.
Other: Aelyx is MtF and registers Female.
