Lyrah

Character Name: Lyrah

Alliance: Neither... Both… Whichever makes the best offer at the time.

Position: Mischievous, playful, calculated killer for hire.

Home location: All over Nigeri.  Her family originates in the borderlands, away from the empires, but Lyrah will travel to wherever trouble takes her.

Race: Shapeshifter

Gender: Female

Age: 12

Appearance:  (picture to come when it’s been drawn) In her non-shifted form Lyrah’s skin is tinted purple, like all of the shifters.  She has vivid green eyes, mid-length reddish-lilac hair and translucent, iridescent wings that are pale blue tipped with green/turquoise.  When she isn’t shifted she stands at 4’2”, which is quite tall for a fairy, and likes to keep in shape.  It’s rare to see Lyrah without some form of weapon near by as she feels it’s best to keep friends close and enemies dead.

Special abilities:  Other than being able to shapeshift, Lyrah is very good at picking locks, looking innocent and killing without remorse.

Personality: She is your average, sweet fairy who just happens to be a cold blooded killer if the moment calls for it.  She likes to think of herself as moral and will always stand up for her friends and family, unless any of them rub her up the wrong way and then they’ll find themselves re-homed in a nice hole in the ground.

Family: Lyrah is estranged from her family – they all thought it was best before she became the only living relative.

Other information: The shapeshifter “gene”, in Lyrah’s case, is passed down though the family.  Some shifters believe it originated as a curse that has never been lifted, others believe it is a genetic mutation that has evolved over time, while some still think it is purely down to the magic the fae possess as a race.  Lyrah couldn’t care less how it happened or why it does.  All she cares about is getting control over it so she doesn’t face off another enemy then suddenly shift uncontrollably and almost get crushed by the weapons she was holding.
