Hey, guys. I’m Graph, AKA Graphic Description. My old account is… well, old, and I’d really like a fresh start with my character. If you can’t approve me, as I am submitting a character technically already in Althanas, I understand.
Name: Demonica Serkan.
Race: A demon, despite her somewhat human appearance. Her family bloodline is considered one of the purest, and can be traced back to prehistoric descriptions of Satan.
Gender: Female.
Age: 19.
Hair Color: Dark brunette.
Eye Color: Red. Maroon in bright sunlight; crimson in low-light conditions.
Height: 5’5”.
Weight: 114 lbs.
Languages: Fluent Tradespeak, fractured Latin.
Occupation: Drifter. She has no moral qualms with doing society’s dirty work.
Personality: A jaded burnout of a creature. She takes pride in her maturity and intellect, and views the world with a been-there-done-that skepticism. Though she appears cold and insensitive, she is deeply insecure and emotionally erratic. She shows an uncharacteristic level of pity for a demon, her cruel nature softened over the years.
Appearance (Demon-like features): A pair of scarlet wings stem from between her shoulder blades, the wing membranes perforated with old wounds. A three-foot-long russet tail trails from her spine, and ends with a small triangular spike. Each of her fingers ends with a four-inch talon, which she can sheath and unsheathe (much like a cat’s claws). Her canine teeth are unusually long and sharp, giving the appearance of fangs, but they aren’t functional as weapons.
Appearance (Human-like features): She has the body of a somewhat attractive, curvy young woman. Her silken, slightly wavy hair falls to the small of her back, and is layered in the front, often obscuring her eyes. Her cheekbones are highly-set, and her jaw sharp and refined - signs of her heritage. She wears a maroon, ankle-length corset dress, the sides laced-up and fitted, the bottom tapering out into a black, lacy skirt. Dark wrist-length lace gloves distract the eye from the noticeably inhuman shape of her fingers. Her shoes, like much of her outfit, have been worn away by years of use, and are now riddled with patches.
History: As a child, Demonica was the successor to the powerful Serkan empire, a vast expanse of land ruled by like-minded demons. Her parents spoiled her, indulging her every wish. By the age of thirteen, she grew power-hungry, and was given control of the Serkan army. For a while, she was a passable leader, conquering nearby townships without any real difficulty. But she made a horrific tactical error, and enraged a nearby nation of humans, the Resanth. The Resanth king, a short-tempered man, didn’t hesitate to invade Serkan territory, and began a bloodthirsty ethnic cleansing of Serkanic demons. Demonica’s home, the Serkan palace, was burned to the ground, and any demon foolish enough to fight the Resanth was murdered. Ashamed and terrified, Demonica fled the burning remains of her family’s empire, leaving the rest of her species to its fate.
Orphaned, disgraced, and with limited knowledge of the outside world, Demonica forged a vagrant existence. She lived in fear of meeting another of her kind, and wandered from one city to the next, making herself scarce. As the years passed, her hatred of humanity grew, and her worldview darkened. She witnessed only the grotesque underbelly of society, travelling from slum to slum. She became an alcoholic, and continues to spend her limited earnings on ale. Her romantic experience is limited, but consists of rejection for her race and appearance.
She lives out of fear of dying, simply put. While she still sees the novelty in everyday life, she knows it’s only a matter of time before something pushes her over the edge – be it alcohol, racism or the guilt of it all.
Skills: She is above average at close-combat, and fights by clawing at her opponent with her talons. Though her reflexes are slow, she can often anticipate an enemy’s attack, and defend herself sufficiently. She can fly, though she is limited to low altitudes and short distances. She is well-educated, and can speak fragmented Latin and exceptional Tradespeak.
Equipment: A turquoise amulet with extensive healing properties (though it will only repair lethal or nearly lethal wounds). She wears it around her neck.
Familiars: N/A
