About

Personality

(Her profile is very, very out of date. I need to go through and clean up/update a ton of info!)    

Aleu is pretty shy and reserved on the surface, but past her insecurities is fiery and passionate. When a situation gets dire and she doesn't have time to think she can prove a strong and decisive leader. She is incredibly stubborn and idealistic, and has a habit of glossing over the bad in people she wants to trust. 

She can be sensitive at times, and is very empathetic. She can focus too much on others and end up suffering herself as a result, unless someone is there to remind her to pace herself. 

Aleu may appear innocent but she is pretty raunchy, and can be an absolute hornball almost on par with Sylvain (but not with the same... Flirtatiousness) 

She is extremely conflicted over her more beastial side, to the point she feels sick when people mention it or even while looking into mirrors. She's chilled by how easy it is for her to kill others and mulls it over constantly. She will sometimes throw spars on purpose to appear weaker than she actually is to avoid sticking out. She can get anxious at night due to anxiety, so she tries to keep herself occupied doing something. As a result she often naps during the day in odd, hard to reach places.

She has ADHD, so she can be scatterbrained. Very prone to loosing things and becoming very scrambled when doing multiple things at once. She also tends to hyperfixate on training.

Physical Information

Aleu specializes in speed, evasion and attack power, not unlike myrmidon and swordmaster classes, with the added bonus of being able to take a few hits due to being more durable then normal humans (though her attack would be slightly lower than those classes typical as well). However, her resistance to magic is abysmal and there's a plethora of weapons and combat arts that do bonus damage (beastbanes, rapiers, monster killing combat arts). She would naturally come with unarmed combat skills.

Vargr cannot normally use magic due to having a similar force that flows through their body that takes the place of the energies humans mages call upon. In half Vargr, both of these are forcibly mixed together in a volatile fashion, allowing for limited magic use. Aleu can only use fire magic, and cannot bend or manipulate it well (so it's basically just raw fire). She usually breathes it out of her mouth, but it can also come from her hands or be used on her claws for extra strike damage. Any magic is amplified by adrenaline. 

Being Vargr means she can transform (she only learns to do so later on.) The transformation makes the user much more powerful, but is extremely physically taxing, especially for half Vargr. Repeatedly transforming without prolonged rest will cause severe internal injuries due to the shifting of bones and internal organs during transformations. Typically this starts with the ribs and chest. When Vargr transform, as long as they have enough energy, they heal any injuries sustained before transformation. 

Being Vargr also means she can loose up to 3 times the blood of a human, and provided she isn't depleted of energy she can heal much faster as well. Vargr require more calories and sleep than humans, and some herbs usually used for medical purposes are slightly toxic to them as well (something found out the hard way 😬)
