Name: Elaine Dahna
Alias: Yuka (though she does not use this often)
Age: around 18-19
Race: human
Hair: Flame red, long, layered and the fringe sweeps over one eye
Eyes: green
Height: 5'7
Dominate Hand: Right
Equipment:
Enchanted Cargo pants – These make the storage of thousands of items in ones pockets logical. These items though must be able to be carried and also able to by removed from the pockets. Due to their magical nature though the pockets will stretch to a certain degree. Anything put into these pocket may become lost for a long period of time, depending on the circumstances, as the Cargoes will usually only give her what she needs, rather than what she wants. Though it is possible to regain a past item, depending on what Elaine calls ‘The gremlins’ and their mood toward the wearer of the Cargos at the moment. They do not have to be worn though in order to obtain an item. Mostly, Elaine has never seen the item before she uses it, not knowing the effects of it until then. Two pockets at the knees of Elaine’s cargoes have been hand-sewn on and are not infused with magic. Held in these pockets are – a roll of bandages, a palm sized mirror, a piece of finely meshed together cloth, a cigarette lighter and a bottle of perfume.
An enchanted mask, belonging to Saken - Allows for the casting of base element magic, used mostly to cancel out other magical attacks.
Weapons:
Sword- belonged to her brother before he died and has been reforged after shattered in a fight. This sheathed on her left hand side. This is not magical at all
daggers/blades - two strapped to each of her legs, hidden under her Cargo pants. One strapped to her right thigh.
Other: Carn- a hybrid of a peregrine falcon and a red hawk. He can talk to Elaine through her mind; Elaine saved his life and they became friends over time.
Clothing: Black cargo pants, dark green shirt with short sleeves, diamond pendant necklace that belonged to her mother, and good fitting boots.
Special Abilities:
Mind speech- Can speak into the minds of humans and animals if they allow the connection.; they can speak back when the connection is still open.
Shadow-player- fades into any shadow until completely invisible. Can move across shadows and split her body up into smaller shadows. Splitting herself is dangerous though for herself though and take a lot more energy and concentration to retain. This doesn’t work where the sun hits in full force.
Ayreal- Elaine’s body is pushed past its limits and her speed triples. Only works when she is bleeding. Is only for a certain period of time and drains her energy a lot. Hardly uses this.
- There is an attack, in which Elaine forces all her energy to her speed and sword, drawing power from the forests around her and the Colours of the trees. The attack appears to miss the opponent, but the speed means that she is simply back two steps before she seems to get too close, her use of shadows to disguise the attack and pure speed being the culprit of this. Criss-crossed welts appear first on the enemy, as the colours copy the original attack and add their own slashes. The welt then split open and bleed heavily. This attack usually comes at the cost of all the energy and feeling from one of Elaine’s limbs, though this will retain after rest.
-Also can see what Elaine calls ‘the colours’ that surround every person. This enables Elaine to see the auras and emotion of a person. Still learning to control this properly; sometimes she gets the feelings wrong, because all the colours are meshed together.
Magic:
~Cargoes.
~Elaine has also dabbled in magic with her grandfather, but had to stop; after he died she had troubles advancing and turned to her sword. Elaine learnt how to twist minimal quantities of fire into shapes, but has mostly forgotten even this now. She has also discovered how to keep herself immersed in the shadows for a longer period of time.
Character Persona
Personality: Elaine has a quick temper but most of all a tendency to rapidly swap her emotions back and forth. Mostly she’s cheery, polite and nice to those she meets, leading others to think that she’s a bit of a push over. She is by nature though a confident person. Elaine has a strong stubborn streak which means she will not give up easily, taking herself as far past her limits as her body will allow, and often beyond. She has often gambles within fights or arguments, and takes on bets too easily even if the odds aren’t good.
History
Being raised mostly by the three males that made up her family, Elaine developed a love of all types of fighting. Her neighbor Emma tried hard to teach Elaine about how to be a good woman, but though Elaine attended these lessons out of her love for Emma and for her Father, who thought that she probably shouldn’t be so unlady-like, she retained the liking of rolling around in the dirt and getting hurt while playing or fighting. Elaine soon found the fun in it, changing Emma's lessons into her own form of training. Walking like a lady soon turned to learning how to climb trees and jump from branch to branch in heels. While the manners were simply in case of if she met people of higher standing that she had to behave in front of.
Elaine wandered for a while after her family all just disappeared one day, liking the freedom, the living wherever she could, heighting the connection she felt to the forests and the land. Because of that, Elaine feels really confined when stuck inside buildings, and also forgets that she cannot simply leave and roam on her own when she is with company, though she has been known to disappear for days on end without saying a word.
She fought a warrior by the name of Ayin Darktree a number of times, at that time matching him physically but he once he began the use of Magics, she realised just how far she had to push herself to keep up at all. Elaine beat Ayin, but through the use of a technique which she had not wanted to use, and this took much of her energy. After later battles, he became a good friend to her.
Elaine met Saken, a warrior who easily bet her in a physical match. Although Elaine was seen to be losing through the fight, she made wagers with him, Saken’s end of it stating that she would have to become his student if she lost. So Saken and Elaine became master and student at the same time as being ‘involved’. Though the relationship seems rather strange most of the time, as the pair constantly bicker then fight against each other with weapons, they end up married.
