Adella Danell
Name: Adella Danell
Alias: Her formal title is “The Honourable Adella Danell,” as her father is a Count
Age: 22
Birthday: July 9
Star Sign: Cancer
Gender: Female
Species: Vhampir
Birthplace:
Height: 5’ 6”
Hair: Dark brown; curly, it’s about shoulder length since she cut it, but it used to be very long.
Eyes: Muddy green-gold
Skin: Very fair, less pink than that of a human
Build: Well toned muscle, and a feminine frame, but not too curvy with small but proportional breasts.
Abilities: Her movements, like most Vhampir, are predatory, elegant, sensual and efficient. She tends to tap her foot when impatient. Excellent vision (greater distances and awesome night vision), superb senses of hearing and smell, super human speed, and strength (strength is on par with that of elves), lower body temp, slower heart rate, rapid rate of healing. She is very keen with the small sort of knives that can be hidden in a dress, although she can use a sword. She is musically inclined, but her singing voice is only mediocre. Her best talents lie in deceit and information gathering. Brewing coffee/tea is definitely not one of her skills.
Disabilities: Poor eyesight in brightly lit conditions; requires blood to survive; burns very easily in sunlight and over exposure can lead to death.
Personality: She is a keen observer of courtly intrigue, and very adept at it. She understands people and their motivations, a rare gift. She can be whoever she wants to be, and see through the masks other wear. She gets along well with anyone, regardless of like to dislike. But for all her enjoyment of deceit she is most content to be herself, and there is only one who knows her for herself, Gabriel. She is very confident, especially in character, but she does have a streak of uncertainly that comes from her lack of experience. (She’s still young). Adella is ruled by emotions that are tempered by logic. She will do something just to be contrary (she hates opposition, being told what to do, and advice, good or bad), but will only go so far, as dictated by reason. Well most of the time.
Likes: Flirting, intrigue, testing the bounds, reading, music, horseback riding, knife throwing, drama, cooking (not that she is very good at it, yet), entertaining
Dislikes: Opposition, being told what to do, and advice, good or bad, authority
Style of Dress: Frequently dark slacks and blouses in dark colours; at court always full length dresses that are low cut a revealing. (Customary outfit for Vhampir females: they are not allowed to wear pants or have short hair. It is a law dictated by custom, not law.) And of course she also dressed as a guy to rescue Gabriel, which also explains her shoulder-length hair.
Important Items / Weapons Owned: She is not really into material possessions, but she does have a small silver dagger her father gave her for her sixteenth birthday, that is always concealed somewhere on her person.
Occupation: Member of the Gentry
History: Gabriel Danell, 12 years her older brother, raised her as best he could. Gabriel is overprotective, which annoys her, but at the same time knowing he’s there comforts her. When she is rebellious, she does not fully understand his frustration, but she knows him better than he does himself. But when her parent’s act too passively to her brother’s disappearance, she takes on the task of finding him on her own. To do so, she disguises herself as a boy, and sets out on an adventure and ends up rescuing her captured brother from the bad guys. It was the culmination of events that led to Gabriel (and Adella’s) abandonment of their noble existence and movement into the world outside of Vhampir society.
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Aisling O'Wisp
Name: Aisling O’Wisp
Alias: Wisp
Age: 53 (which in human years would be around her twenties; fae lifespan is far longer than that of a human)
Birthday: March 31
Star Sign: Aries
Gender: Female
Species: Fae
Birthplace: Wynglass Manor, British Isles
Height: 11 4/7“ or 5’ 9”
Hair: Silver blond and short so as to not interfere with her wings.
Eyes: Her eyes are blue-green (deep and vibrant), varying, like the iridescence of her dragonfly wings.
Skin: Almost albino with just a hint colour.
Build: She is slender as a willow wand, and even more flexible. Wisp also has wings, which identify her in fae society. She is a Drag, (dragonfly style sings, more specifically Petaluridea, her mother is Dam (damselfly)/ her father a Drag and her siblings are mixed). Fae have a variety of types, butterfly, and all the others. Each branch is considered a clan, and is ruled by their noble, being Wisps family for her clan. But they all answer to the high king/queen. But overall it's a laid back system, much more so that humans.
Abilities: Being a fae, she is skilled in the casting of illusion. Her normal size is small, just under a foot, which is quite tall, for a fae. She can become human size, but her wings do not grow, so she cannot fly in her larger form. People don’t usually notice her wings, since she can hide them easily using illusion, but one will note she normally wears open backed clothing.
Personality: She’s an adventure lover. She’s friendly and generous but also fearless and determined, though some would say stubborn. She is a very intelligent leader but tends to be lazy when it comes to the paperwork aspect of the working world, so jobs without proper paperwork don’t bother her. She’s not averse to bending the rules, but so long as no one is harmed (fiscally or physically) she’s your man.
Likes: Nightrunning, dancing, music, nature, a nice fruity wine, double crossing jerks….
Dislikes: Cursing, cold iron, people who wear their clothes inside out, sea food, rudeness, and “bad guys” – she’ll double cross them every chance she can get!
Style of Dress: Although her style is rather eclectic, she keeps with the standards of her people. Proper court attire for women allows only the neck and chest area to be shown. She usually prefers slacks, and heels. Her style is sort of business casual, but oddly unusual.
Important Items / Weapons Owned: She wears two fae made daggers, one on her belt and one hidden in her boot. She usually has an odd assortment of things on her person, from acorns, leaves, and small vials of various potions. She keeps a round bottle of berry juice on her belt. Of course the berries have a hallucinogenic effect, which can come in handy… I’ll not say how.
Occupation: Nightrunner
History: She grew up on her parents’ manor and the surrounding lands with her siblings and the children of the servants, usually being the leader of their games. She’s the second youngest of her seven siblings (she has a bunch of brothers and her one sister is the second oldest). Her family is noble, but due to her mother’s poor health, her father spends most of his time at home instead of court. So as a result Wisp spent little time at court, although she knows the ins and outs, and proper etiquette. She left home for the outside world, where most people believe the fae to be only myth, and ended up working as a Nightrunner, which includes smuggling and other less than lawful business dealings.
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Daemian Wight
Name: Daemian Wight
Alias: He goes by many things when in disguise, but his friends call him Figwort, which he finds incredibly annoying.
Age: Old
Birthday: None
Star Sign: None
Gender: Male
Species: Wight
Birthplace: None
Height: 6’
Hair: Curly strawberry blond, it falls down below his ears.
Eyes: Green
Skin: Fair, with some freckles, and he burns easily.
Build: He’s tall and made of wiry muscle; whipcord lean and extremely agile.
Abilities: He has magic. Namely he can make himself invisible, but he never does (except in emergencies) saying that he does not need to be invisible to be invisible. Aisling usually rolls her eyes at this point. Some people can see through his magic, but children are the most likely. His weapon of choice is a blow gun, and an assortment of darts with varying powers. He can wield a sword as the need arises. His hands are deft and basically any small object can be used as a weapon by him. He’s an expert at infiltration, thieving, locks, and other such activities.
Personality: Daemian is old but young in spirit, which is usually the case for immortals. Let’s just say he’s been around. He is generally cool and in control in even the worst of situations. But he’s an excellent actor, and can be anyone, a necessary tool for Nightrunning. He often portrays himself as slightly oblivious and clumsy, which results in people dismissing him as harmless. But he can be very dangerous. And he prefers to live underground. At the moment he lives in a cellar, but make no mistake it’s quite nice, although cluttered with his hoard of miscellaneous things.
Likes: Cats (his own is a small grey stray named Gremlin who has no tail), green striped neck ties, the colours black and grey, playing dumb to give people a hard time, a good adventure, milk, those wedding cookies with the powdered sugar on the outside, thieving, sarcasm, picking on Maike and Wisp.
Dislikes: The nickname Figwort, liquor, loud bars,
Style of Dress: Sort of mobster like, black trousers, collared shirt with cuff links, vest, neck tie, pocket watch, and suit jacket and to top it off his black bowler.
Important Items / Weapons Owned: His weapon of choice is a blow gun, and an assortment of darts with varying powers. He can wield a sword is the need arises. His hands are deft and basically any small object can be used as a weapon by him.
Occupation: Nightrunner- smuggling, spying, thieving, are all included.
History: There’s a lot of it, and Daemian is not the talkative type, other than relating specific experiences or humorous tales of his escapades.
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Gabriel Danell
Name: Gabriel Danell
Alias: He holds the title of “The Viscount Danell of Ituneric Vale” and is addressed as “My Lord” or more formally “Your Lordship”
Age: 34
Birthday: October 25
Star Sign: Scorpio
Gender: Male
Species: Vhampir
Birthplace: Ituneric Vale
Height: 6’ 1”
Hair: Brown; shoulder length, straight, and normally tied back.
Eyes: Muddy green-brown
Skin: Very fair, less pink than that of a human
Build: Well toned muscle, a fencer’s body.
Abilities: His movements, like most Vhampir, are predatory, elegant, and noteworthy. Excellent vision (greater distances and awesome night vision), superb senses of hearing and smell, super human speed, and strength (strength is on par with that of elves), lower body temp, slower heart rate, rapid rate of healing. He is very intelligent, musically inclined, honest (when he can be), and has great skill with a sword.
Disabilities: Poor eyesight in brightly lit conditions; requires blood to survive; burns very easily in sunlight, over exposure can lead to death. He is also lactose intolerant, despite his grandfather’s efforts to remedy him of it.
Personality: He is organized, slightly controlling, has leadership skills, and is quick to smile if the other is sincere. When irritated he becomes brusque. He often traces swirling patterns on tabletops with his right index finger. Gabriel interacts well and politely with society, but never takes to people. He remains aloof with other Vhampir and is a master of courtly behavior. He tends to be idealistic and thus embodies the patterns he believes in. He is fascinated by non-Vhampir and tends to be friendlier toward them.
Likes: He is addicted to caffeine, preferably coffee; his favorite is French Vanilla, black. Fencing, listening and playing music, reading (just about anything, especially philosophy), hanging out in coffee shops, he’s shy about singing in public but very talented, teaching, libraries and books stores.
Dislikes: Vhampir society, tea or coffee as made by Adella (it’s terrible)
Style of Dress: High quality pieces, usually dark, tailored clothing, silver accents, and usually high collars (traditional for Vhampir men).
Important Items / Weapons Owned: A silver cross on a silver chain (He’s a devout Catholic)
Occupation: Viscount; Gentleman, professor
History: His mother and father have a formal relationship with their children. They took little interest in them as children, delegating a nanny to teach them the ways of their society, just as they themselves were raised. Now grown, they expect their children to uphold the family’s position. When his younger sister Adella was born, 12 years his younger, he took care of her, sheltering her from their world, and instilling the values he believed in. He is overly protective of her.
Alignment: Lawful Good
