Name: Kylie
Title: Kavanagh
Race: Fae
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Height: 4'10"
Weight: 98
Occupation: Healer

Physical Description: Kylie's face is open and honest, almost childlike as she often walks around with a smile. Her hair, worn short, is a deep brown. Her dragonfly-like wings and fair skin are tinted a slight shade of blueish purple that seems to glow when moonlight shines on her. She wears slightly dark green clothes that hug her skin and accentuate her slender petite body, while allowing her maximum flexibility.

Personality: Kylie is kind, gentle, and caring toward others, eager to give help where she can. She strongly dislikes, if not abhors, violence and if asked, she would always counsel peace and diplomacy over war and the sword. Still young and somewhat inexperienced, she delights in learning new things and has started a small collection of books in her house in Donnalaich.

Spells:

Sooth - This spell can sooth pain and knit together flesh that has been mildly wounded, such as scrapes, bruises or twists. It can also slow the blood flow from larger wounds for a short time and facilitate its healing a small degree.

Calm - A spell to help calm patients by spreading a feeling of comfort or contentment. Presently, its effect is limited on duration and effectiveness, depending on the level of pain the patient is in. Higher pain levels may mean that the spell doesn't work at all.

Cure - A Healing spell designed to combat poison and its effects. As of right now, it will heal in very minor cases or if they manage to catch it early. In more serious cases, it only slows the poison down, but this gives more time for the patient's body to combat and defeat the poison.

Augment Healing - Kylie, after carefully studying the way some creatures seem to heal themselves much more quickly than the average human, has fashioned a spell that duplicates the effects. This allows her to cast a spell that increases the target's natural healing rate by half again as normal. The effect lasts only a short while before the spell dissipates, but this is long enough for most fights.

Skills:

Flight - Kylie's wings allow her to fly a short distance above the ground, although as her flight muscles and wings aren't fully developed, she can only do so for a short period before tiring.

Inventory:

Knife - Although normally considered a weapon, Kylie rarely uses it as such, and she wouldn't be very good at using it in combat anyways. Instead, she uses mainly as a utility knife of sorts or even as a surgical knife if needed. Its blade is made of an alloy as strong as steel that is highly resistant to corrosion, and the handle is made of a wood native to Dheathain. Normally stored in a sheath on her leather belt.

History:

Kylie blinked for a moment as Aiden's question sank in, wiping a sympathetic tear from her left eye. "Well, um . . ." She spoke softly, subdued after hearing the tale of the Fell Human's life. "That answered them quite well, yes. I suppose I should give my story now. Not quite as full of events as yours. It was very much normal.

"You see, for all the dangers here in Dheathain, it's actually very safe in much of where we Fae live in Donnalaich. That would be the big city I pointed out to you a week or so ago, in the middle of all those ruins. Children learn early to not go into the protected areas, and the adults keep us busy enough with giving other things to keep us busy with. Like learning how to, ah, manipulate? Make these crystals into different things."

She smiled slightly. "Lots of fun with that. Once, my cousin made a crystal into something akin to a half sized plate full of my uncle's favorite meat. With some clever painting, it even looked exactly like it should. What gave it away was that it was not as heavy as it should have been. I think they still have it as their table center piece.

"Anyways, we also learned just about anything we really wanted to know about. It isn't like what I hear of other lands, with their set classes and learning programs and all that. No, if you wanted to learn out to cast magic, fight with a pointed stick, or just simply wanted to learn, there is someone to teach you, not to mention the libraries. I learned how to be a healer from my mother, and she taught me what I know now, aside from a bit here and there I've learned since finding you in that hollow. Most of my life has been spent working under her.

"Another thing about Donnalaich. We have a lot of treasure hunters passing through recently, especially since word is starting to spread of our little slice of the world. You hear all sorts of stories of faraway places, like the one you spoke of. Salvar. A very cold place. After awhile, it just makes one wonder and want to see it all. Quite a few of my friends have gone treasure hunting or exploring. One has even opened his own small business of what he's found, though I have never been quite sure if what he's selling is quite allowed by the Comataidh nan Roinnean. So, one day, I just started following them as they went out.

"In fact, I had just gotten lost during a trek when we stumbled onto each other. And we both know all that's happened since." Kylie tilted her head slightly as she finished speaking, cyan eyes studying her companion sitting across the fire and the sleeping child beside him.

]OOC: I realized the skills may a bit overpowered for a level zero after looking at some of the other profiles. If they are, I'll be happy to edit them appropriately. ^_^ Also, was very tempted to name these after similar Guild Wars spells. <_<

I don't think the skills are necessarily overpowered, especially given the fact that your character is focused solely on healing. Though, seeing as she's a Fae and thus has wings, you might want to consider adding flight as a skill. At this point she shouldn't be able to fly for too long or too fast, but that can change with time/levels.

Also, please add that the alloy the knife is made of is as strong as steel.

Do that, and you'll be set to go.

Flight skill added, and added that the alloy is as strong as steel.
