Welcome to Gaia! ::

*Same bio for lost child. World description in posts below*




Given Name: Dante
Legend: Duke/General Agares, Demon of Courage/Deposed angel of Order of Virtues
Legend Base: Christian demonology
Alignment: Chaotic neutral. Warring angel/demon sides.
Gender: Male

GENERAL
Personality: Can be very proud. Friendly enough, can be stand-offish, shy sometimes. Prefers small groups. Paranoid of people lying. Friendly/open with those he trusts. Loyal to a fault. Critical thinker, stubborn sometimes. Trustworthy, intelligent, eager to learn. Defensive over what he likes. Respects beauty, adores dance. Likes teaching.

In general, Dante is an intelligent person, with a friendly enough attitude, though he can be somewhat rude at times because of his bluntness. He keeps himself slightly apart from others, preferring to not let people get too close to him. All around very paranoid about whether people are really being honest, trust issues are common with him. He's wary of new people until he's known them for a certain period of time, or until they prove themselves in some way or another that could possibly impress Dante. And as far as other angels and demons go, he tries to avoid them all together. Demons, he's incredibly paranoid about. He'll have cordial conversations with one, but he'll leave as soon as politely possible. Angels, though? He'll be in a cold sweat and probably suppressing shivers. Not very high on his "favorites" list. His stomach in particular will clamp up when near an angel, though he can't for the life of him explain why.

Once a person is close to him, though, it's like a flower blossoming. He's more outgoing, with a sarcastic sense of humor and a crooked smile, he can be a devoted and trustworthy friend or compatriot, loyal to a fault and perfectly happy to jump into a fight if they need it. When Dante has people he likes, he'll do whatever he can to always have someone near him; he's always jittery and jumpy when alone, and so can seem a little bit clingy possibly, underneath smooth excuses and reasons for why someone should come see him or vice versa. If someone breaks his trust though, he's not so forgiving, as he isn't inclined to "second chances"(As ironic as that may be.) His random mood swings can push his friendships, though; he'll flip flop from amused to sour very easily, and when he's in a bad mood, his jokes take on more offensive edges, he snaps at people, etc. He's well aware of the fact, and attempts to control it, but can't always help it, almost as if something more evil wants to slip through to his head.

For a demon, he doesn't have much of a temper, though he can get agitated easily depending on his mood. When he gets angry, he plans and plots, and gets back when it's least expected, at the point when the original issue was more then likely forgotten. Or, he'll go and mope in a corner till he gets over it; he can act immature when he's angry, and depending on the person may resort to petty ways of getting back. When he's down right furious, though, it'd be best to stay away. If one can get him angry enough, he'll lose it pretty much. Best avoided at all costs.

As far as fighting goes, Dante won't generally start them unless really riled up or if it involves a friend, but he won't back down if he's roped into one. Unless it's about something personal, he generally just ignores the antagonist. Dante isn't exactly a coward, despite his dislike of pain; he won't run unless the odds are totally against him, he just finds confrontations to be fairly pointless. He has pride, but he doesn't believe in wasting energy unless there's some sort of vendetta to settle. Large, violent groups will also make him more inclined to take off.

Dante likes to be in positions of power, having a knack for leading people and turning out good results. When he has a superior, he will do whatever he can to complete whatever task is assigned to him, as best he can, and he full well expects whatever underlings are beneath him to do so as well. Dante expects utter loyalty from his comrades and minions, and views those who aren't as traitors. For them to betray their "king" would be an ultimate dishonor.

His passion, though, is dance and language. He loves the smoothness of speech, how words translate across barriers and change with different cultures; they absolutely captivate him. Dante's dance, though, that is his ultimate love. The movements and beats of the people and the music, the fast tempos, the slow melodies, they all thrill him in a way nothing else does. Dante strives to become a master dancer, and loves showing people how to learn, teaching being the one surefire way to pull him out of his shell around strangers. He is constantly on the lookout for the perfect dance partner, the woman with the intuitiveness needed for dance.

Not too big on the whole "romance," thing, he still has an appreciation for beauty. He's not one to go actively seeking out a romantic partner, it's simply not of great concern to him. While Dante doesn't dislike crushes and dating and such, he'd rather it find him then he go hunting. He would much prefer hunting for the perfect dance partner, which will probably be what starts him wanting a relationship.

[At some point I'm thinking to have some sort of personality change as he goes to youth or adult. More evil, sadistic, losing some of the compassion, becoming a "true demon," etc. Possibility, still figuring this out.]

Likes:
|-| Dance
|-| Languages
|-| Birds and reptiles
|-| Cleanliness
Dislikes/Fears:
|-| Large groups
|-| Cold
|-| Angels
|-| Pain
Powers:
|-| Compulsion: Can stop any motion. Can force those around him to dance, can't control them beyond that.
|-| Earthquakes: Can cause small scale earthquakes; larger ones come with time. Has very little to no control until older.
|-| Courage/Fear: He can make someone feel brave or cowardly. Dante would have very little control over this till he's older.
|-| Bird Sight: He can see through the eyes of a bird; the bird must be bonded to him, and can only bond to one.
|-| Languages: Has a strong aptitude for languages. Learns them quickly.
|-| Miracle: A power leftover from being an Angel of Virtue, a miracle worker. He can make one "miracle," basically save one life, but he has no control over it. For him to trigger it, he has to be feeling extreme love for that person; once it's been used, the power is gone forever, and the wing-marks on his back also disappear.
|-| Flexibility: Not so much a power as just a capability.
Weaknesses:
|-| Angels: Dante is terrified around angels, though he refuses to admit it. It can get to the point where he can't even use his powers, because he can't concentrate enough to do so. He essentially has hysterics until he is way away from them.
|-| Stomach: His stomach is a sore spot, the scars there making it hurt much more then normal for him to get hit there. It cramps and pains him when near an angel
|-| Claustrophobic: He gets jumpy when in small spaces, liking to have a way out of things if something were to happen; very paranoid when he has no room to move.
|-| Compulsion: In the case of stopping motion, this doesn't always work. He can stop motion only if he is either concentrating, or if he's under extreme emotions, like severe anger or something. For making one dance, one can resist if they have a strong will.
Appearance: His appearance isn't particularly important, and my only idea of him is dark skin and light hair, slender yet muscled, and demonic features. On his belly are a series of faded scars left over from the angels' weapons, and on his upper back are two silver markings of wings, as a reminder that Agares was originally an angel of the order of Virtues.
Clothing: His clothing style is very modern, with nothing particularly notable. Comfortable stuff in varying colors, things that would be easy to move around in but that also don't look too messy. Usually wears flipflops or sandals, dislikes sneakers and will deviate to dance shoes sometimes. He wears a small number of jewelry, two piercings in each ear being the only constants. Lost Child clothing is fairly similar, as his world is closely parallel to ours.
Other: Nothing

LOST CHILD
Name: Trisa Ylna
Gender: Female
Age: 34
Species: Daimon

Eyes: Pale orange
Hair: Black, straight and hangs just below her shoulders.
Skin: Dark brownish tan
Height: Around 5'8
Weight: 140lbs
Distinguishing Features: Dark horns that resemble an ibex's aiming backwards from her ears; long, thin reptile's tail extending from her backside, has a few spikes on the end. Wears glasses.

Weaknesses: Cold weather
Personality: Friendly, cheery, bubbly, energetic. Devoted to her teaching, loves children. An outgoing woman, Trisa is a school teacher for younger children. She teaches basic math principles, as well as homeroom for a few youngsters. A very patient and helpful woman, she loves being around children. Outside of the classroom, she is a decent cook and mother, managing a small three room apartment with herself, her brother Calla, and her son Dante. A small happy family, she wouldn't want it any other way. She has a slightly sarcastic sense of humor, though it pops up rarely(Seeing as sarcasm usually goes right over a child's head), so generally sticks to simpler things that children would like. Because of that, she comes off as a little childish sometimes, but who doesn't have their flaws?
Family:
|-| Son(Adopted): Dante Ylna
|-| Brother: Calla Ylna
History: An average person with a simple history. One of two children, went through school and to a university for her teaching degree. Her brother Calla excelled in the sciences, and is now working on major projects for the governement. Her son Dante came to them almost by accident; the siblings were on the way home from having dinner when they heard a baby crying in the bushes next to the road they were on. Seeing no one nearby, they took him home. No one could identify him though, so they took him in and raised him. A smart child, he developed quickly, much faster then normal Daimon children. They merely assumed he was just a special child.

*drops in*

Just a note to say I'm fine with this, and Satin and I are talking so that she doesn't contradict what I've already set up for Hell n.n

Wewt, have my mythbase up, finally, and the main bulk of the profile x3

I have to say, Satin, that it's a lot of information, but it's all very well written. The characters are all entirely believable, the world for the Lost Children contest is practical and interesting, your character isn't overpowered, but it still magical and has and interesting former life. I have to say I would love to read your boy's adventures and wish you a lot of luck in the contest. =D
