| Bio: | Roleplay Journal for Chaos Unraveled Roleplay. Feel free to contact the player (Clara) anything through email/AIM/comments. Name: Morana What world they came from: Original Character Birthday: November 24 Age: 17 Species: Human, with a special ability. Occupation: Outcast and Prisoner Appearance: Overall, due to the way she lives Morana is rather scruffy and messy in appearance. Her waist length black hair is tangled and wavy, and often has to be pushed out of her face so she can see properly, revealing large and curious misty grey eyes. Her skin is very pale and white, her body average height (5'7 about) but very scrawny and bony, making her look rather malnourished. She wears rather worn and tattered tribal looking clothes, which consist of a full length patterned skirt and short top revealing her midriff, with supported straps attached to her upper arms. She is also seen to walk barefoot all the time. Special abilities/talents: While she is barely aware of it, and has little control over the ability, she can emit powerful sonic waves by screaming. However, Morana has only used this power once by accident, when she was extremely upset and distressed. She is also very good with animals and plants, having lived in the wilderness for all of her life. This means she knows what plants are safe to eat or touch, as well as being able to interact calmly with most animals, birds and insects, something she struggles a lot more to do with people. Quirks: Morana is very solitary, but only because she doesn't know any other way to live. She has lived a very sheltered life, meaning she has little knowledge about the world, and her social skills are non existent, so she is very easily confused and tends to ask a lot of questions. Because she has rarely spoken to anyone in her life she tends to stutter, fidget and play with the ends of her hair a lot due to being uncomfortable and nervous in other peoples company. Personality: Morana, in general, is a quiet, and withdrawn person, but not in a snobby or antisocial manner. She has never known how to interact with people, and therefore is shy and soft-spoken, often stuttering or being very fidgety. She lacks a great deal of understanding in a lot of areas due to being isolated all of her life, but is terribly curious and questioning, with an eagerness to learn, since it is her way or surviving on her own. However, this naivety can also mean she trusts and believes what everyone tells her far too easily. Despite all the cruel assumptions made about her, she has a very kind and gentle nature, though she finds it difficult to show around people due to the way she has been perceived by other humans. Sadly, in believing the Lykke Clan's beliefs about her, she has very low self esteem, and doesn't have confidence in herself. She will even tell people to stay away from her, in fear they will be cursed or hurt. This often leads to her apologising for everything she does, and taking in a lot of blame for misfortunes, especially in knowing that when born, she was given a name that meant 'death'. Reputation: An outcast, a jinx, a bad omen, a cursed and unholy being, and a monster in human flesh. Background Information: Morana lived her whole life on a small island, which was only inhabited by wildlife, and a group of humans known as the Lykke Clan, who worshipped blessed sun deities who ruled over the region. They believed that as long as the sun ruled over the sky, they would be safe and protected, and live prosperous lives. By giving daily offerings of livestock and valuables on the holy altar ruins in the middle of the island, the deities saw them in good stead, and they would be protected. It was also believed that children had to be born during the day, before sunset, in order to be blessed by the deities and live long and happy lives filled with good fortune. However, Morana was not so lucky. She was born on the night of a solar eclipse, which is the darkest day in the Lykke Clan's beliefs, for blocking out the sun meant there was no connection to the beloved deities they worshipped. Therefore, Morana was seen a child born without the deities blessing and goodness, and therefore, was a cursed and evil creature. There was argument that she should be killed straight after birth, but the Lykke Clan worried that such an action would be wicked, and it would mean the sun deities would stop protecting them. Instead, they decided to allow the child to live, but in a cavern a good distance away from the rest of the village. She would be given food and water daily until she was old enough to go out and fend for herself. She was allowed to walk through the village streets, but for their own safety, people should be warned not to touch her, speak to her, or even look at her for too long, lest they wanted to be cursed themselves. This led to Morana leading a life of being shunned and avoided by all the people of the clan, whispering cruel words, saying she was unholy and would bring bad luck to anyone who associated with her. It was made worse as she aged, and she was seen as notably different from everyone else. While the rest of the Lykke people were blessed with fair hair, light coloured eyes, athletic form and tanned skin, Morana was pale, dark, and morbid looking, leading her to be further ostracised. Having no one to contradict this information for her, Morana grew believing it was true what they Lykke Clan said about her. And so, she kept her distance from other people, never questioning anything said about her. 'Most of her life was spent wandering around the island forests, spending time with nature, as the animals would approach her without hate or fear. She also enjoyed looking out to the open ocean from a high cliff point on the island, as the sound of the waves brought her a sense of tranquillity. Sadly, any hopes of lonely but peaceful existence for Morana died quickly, when one day, a group of children decided to wander out from the village, and actually look at the dreaded 'monster' that lived in the wilderness. When they found her near the cliff side, they started shouting abusive words and throwing stones at her, goading her to jump off the cliff to escape, since she was better off dead anyway and wouldn't be able to jinx the Clan. Morana didn't fight back, she didn't know what to do at all, having never had anyone approach her before, the rest of the Lykke Clan too afraid and disgusted to go near her. All she could do was hold up her arms to protect herself, sobbing and shaking and asking them to stop. Most of the children ceased in seeing the state she was in, but one little girl kept throwing stones, and even spat at Morana in spite. Unable to take the abuse, Morana suffered from a form of panic attack, and screamed the top of her lungs. However, this wasn't a normal scream. It was strong enough to make the earth shake and the trees creak and sway. The blast was almost deafening, and the children became frightened and ran away. However, the little girl who had refused to stop abusing Morana, instead tried to back away, her eyes closed and ears covered due to being so close to the source of the sonic scream. And because she couldn't see or hear, she stumbled, falling to the ground. Morana did eventually stop screaming, and calmed down slightly. However, the aftershock of the sonic waves caused a part of the cliff they were on to crumble and the girl plunged into the sea, dying on impact with the jagged rocks below, right before Morana's eyes. When the other people of Lykke Clan discovered what had happened, they held a meeting and decided it was not safe any longer to allow Morana to live. She was a threat to everyone's safety, since she could easily destroy the island with such a wicked and evil power. And the fact that the girl who angered and upset her died was enough proof for them to know for certain she was a bad omen. Hence, Morana spent the last night in her world alone in her cave, drifting off into a restless sleep, waiting unknowingly for whatever punishment she would receive for her crime. Heaven or Hell?: Heaven OOC Note: Morana's history is one she is very uncomfortable with and will not talk about until she learns to trust, interact and get along with people more, so it is only through learning to get along will she maybe talk about herself, which will be quite difficult, considering she will shy awa y due to thinking she's cause bad luck for anyone around her. | |||||||||
