Name: Acellya Windgate
Age: 50
Race: Half Elf
Hair Color: Strawberry
Eye Color: Blue
Height: 5’6”
Weight: 115 lb.
Occupation: Ex- Royal Guard
Personality: Her personality is far from gentle and nurturing like a woman of her beauty might be assumed to be. Once she held closely to a code of chivalry and honor, but that code has long been cast away. Acellya holds some bitterness within but doesn’t easily let her true emotions show. She’d learned quickly in order to survive in the world she would have to be clever. Her attitude now is selfish and untrusting, though she knows when to put on any mask for any occasion. Golden morals and chivalry have been traded in for a will to survive.
Appearance: Acellya has a lithe and slender build because of her genetics mostly. Her body is in shape as it is expected to be after 45 years a member of Amvient Royal Guard. She’s never been able to tan properly so is still fair of skin, but perhaps it’s better this way since her hair is a very light pink hue. She has soft features but they have a sharpness behind them.
Her clothes are mixed and matched pieces she’s acquired over the last three years since her royal guard uniform was taken from her when she was imprisoned. Her torso sports a brown leather half turtle neck which a zipped down the center, and the bottom cuts off revealing her midriff Over the leather sleeveless half turtle neck is a white, thin suede ,collared tunic without sleeves and lined with a khaki colored on the inside. There are leather buckles on the front to hold the tunic closed along with a belt she wears around mid ribs. The tunics flaps are left slightly open to reveal her belly button. At the back of the tunic, under the collar is a pinned deep red scarf that hangs down to the back of her knees as a sort of half cape which she can pull over her head to double as a sort of hood. Around her waist are two belts, a large yellowish belt which sits at the top of her hips, and a faded salmon colored belt which is attached to her sword’s sheath. She wears small black shorts under a brown denim skirt. From her knees down are faded black stockings and thin shin guards, bound by black leather straps, that tuck into her black mid calf length boots. On her left arm there is a nylon skin tight sleeve that comes up to her upper arm but is covered by one of her dark navy blue fingerless gloves, the other arm bears two arm bands and the other glove.
History: Daughter of a human father and an elvaan mother, Acellya is a half elf, destined to outlive her human family but die long before her elvaan relatives. She never knew loving parents because she was supposedly found as an infant. In reality, she was born in wedlock to an Elvaan Priestess and the Prince of the small Island nation, Amvient. The priestess, strictly forbidden to wed or bear children , and the prince, soon to become king and already engaged to another, decided they would keep their affair a secret. Acellya was claimed to be found by the priestess on the beach. She suggested the infant Acellya be made into a priestess herself, but her half human origins disallowed that. To keep her close to the royal family still, the prince, now King, decided to make her a royal guard. And so from the time she could walk Acellya was put into rigorous combative training.
After graduating her training she joined a squad of female guards set to be personal body guards for the royal family; they considered one another sisters. For ten years Acellya served her duty to the royal family without the slightest idea of her relation to them. As the years passed the King and his queen had many children, but none did he favor as much as his first daughter, Acellya. And his queen he would never love as e did the priestess whom everyday he thought fondly of. But there came a day when the King realized he was growing old and did not have much time left. His nation had prospered and he had led a full life, thought his secret was his only regret. He spoke with the Priestess, telling her of his plan to reveal the secret they both shared for it was the right thing to do. But before he was able to announce publicly Acellya’s true origins he was murdered. Struck down by Acellya’s own sword. However, it was not Acellya who murdered him, she was framed.
The nation was in disbelief that the King’s most loyal guard would commit such a crime, but she was locked away in the dungeon all the same. Knowing she was innocent and the true murderer was still about Acellya’s chivalry began to be washed away by new waves of anger. Within a week before her scheduled execution she escaped her prison. For 3 years she has been on the run, still pursued by the people she once called sisters. Certainly if she were captured she’d be put to death. But if she could prove her innocence…
Skills:
Sword play: 30 years of sword training has left Acellya with average skills, but training and real battle are two different things. Because she has only been out of the set battle formations she is used to for about 3 years now she can’t consider herself a master of the blade, but she is not a novice either. She understands the dynamics and knows the correct forms, but in a real battle and sparring are two different things.
Hand to Hand: Aside from her sword Acellya also knows how to throw a punch. No guard is effective if they can only rely on their sword. Hand to hand combat is perhaps a stronger skill than her sword play, mainly because hand to hand combat is more instinctive. Her body type allows her to move quickly, and though she may not be as strong her agility makes up for it. But again , she is no hand to hand combat master. At best she is slightly above average.
