Junior Member
Elaheh Akhtar
Age (17-22): 21
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Appearance (Written / picture (realistic, anime, all OK):
Isra arrived in Bastion wearing modern clothes but later discarded them to better blend into her new surroundings. (She kept her face covered even before she was summoned to Bastion) Now she keeps her face hidden under a low hanging hood and scarf. Only a pair of light green eyes can be seen peering from the shadows of her hood.
Personality (BE DETAILED!!):
Elaheh was once a compassionate, loving and obedient girl. Although she didn't quiet agree with the path that was set out for her, she felt that she had so many things to be grateful for. Therefore she embraced the future that her family designed, feeling that it was the only way she could show her gratitude. After all, you cannot have everything in this world. She lived her life that way. Only seeing the glittering, perfect surface but never the shadows that lurked beneath. She was a fool, now she knew better. If you did not fight for yourself, the world would tear you apart. So, she decided that she would let go of her past and live a selfish life like everyone else. (More about her backstory to be revealed in the rp.)
Adopting the name Isra, she left her city in pursuit of her own desires. She says what she wants, does what she pleases and bows to no one. Isra initially comes across as quiet and intimidating, however, she has a pretty easy going personality. Some would even call her reckless. Despite her laid back attitude Isra tends to be very observant and she likes to plan things carefully. Cross her though and you will see her dark side
Even though Isra tries to hide it, she cannot escape the influences of her past and the people around her can immediately tell that she grew up in a different world to theirs. It's clear in the grace of her stride and eloquence of her speech, however, they still accept her without question - with a little help from her magic. Isra has worked hard to build up an intimidating and cold reputation, but, due to her compassion she finds it hard to hurt innocent people. In fact Isra tries to stay away from violence altogether. It's not so much that she couldn't handle herself in a fight, it was more that she enjoyed it. There was something powerful about holding someone's life in your hands and it scared her.
Fear (+3):
- She fears loosing her freedom.
- She fears betrayal therefore she does not make any personal attachments with people.
- She fears herself. Isra fears being too good or too evil and therefore acts only for her own selfish desires. However, the pull towards both sides are great.
Aspiration (+2):
- She wants to be free.
- She wants to have enough power so that she never has to bend to anyone's will.
Magic (Shaped by Personality to conquer your Fear and fulfill your Aspiration) [BE DETAILED! Explain what the magic looked like, what can you do with that, what is it's strength and weakness (At least two weakness, more is better especially if your magic is really OP)? ETC]:
Emotion Manipulation
Isra's abilities manifested from her fear of being controlled. She can manipulate the emotions of people within an 8 meter radius from her current position. This includes the ability to heal someone or herself by decreasing their/her pain. Of course this can also be used defensively by increasing someone's pain or by using their emotions against them.
Illusion Manipulation
Isra can create, shape and manipulate illusions. If the illusion is strong enough she can use it as a type of mind control by convincing the brain to mimic anything that happens within the illusion. She can also use this ability to camouflage herself.
Limitations
Emotion manipulation has an 8 meter range and illusion manipulation can only be performed on one person at a time. The closer she is to a person the stronger the effects. Illusion manipulation in particular requires a lot of concentration therefore leaving Isra more vulnerable to attacks. Someone who has a mental ability or shield and/or strong mind may be able to break free from an illusion. Abuse/overuse of Isra's abilities are dangerous and can cause physical drain as well as temporary or even permanent insanity.
Appearance
Isra's eyes give off a slight white glow when using her magic. This glow can extend to the rest of her body depending on the strength of the ability. Although it is usually white, it may change color depending on her emotional state.
Equipment [Each of the Heroes equipment is unique and made to fit their magic]:
She carries a curved blade and dagger - as shown in the picture above. Her weapons have runes engraved all over them which allows her to absorb the souls of whoever she kills. This makes her weapons more durable and she can call upon the trapped souls to form a soul shield that protects her from physical attacks.
"Heroes, please save the world!" and you reply with _______ that makes you a Hero / Backturner.
"The world cannot be saved.. In the end everything falls."
Your Nickname (given to you by the people): Isra meaning touched by darkness.
Your current location (If you are a Hero, then in Bastion (The Heroes HQ and the only castle that separates us from Demons), if you are a Backturner describe your current location/name of a town village you are in right now (Yeah you can give it a name!)): She is currently in the city of Erith. (Will provide a detailed description later.)
