So sayeth the Spider

Character Number: 10th Name: Sylvana (“From the Forest”) Age: 38 years Gender: Female Element: Forest Appearance: Breaking the mold and standing out is a gift for some, a curse for others. For Sylvana, she loves it. In this case, this Forest does not have the typical willowy horse or wolf-like frame. Instead, Sylvana is built more like an Ornithomimidae or Theropoda dinosaur. Her back legs are long and very powerful for swift running and jumping, while her front legs are far shorter more like arms that rarely touch the ground. Giving her a bipedal build that suits her just fine. This build and her breed give her marvelous speed and agility on the ground. Her tail helps as well, being extremely long and whip-like, it is prehensile and holds a stinger hidden at the very tip for her beloved venom which she can also deliver through her hypodermic fangs. These fangs are within a small viper like head on a long serpentine neck that gives her a deadly strike no matter what end of her you encounter. Her legs are so strong they can easily kill you with a quick kick. If the kick doesn't do it, her talons sure as hell will. Both feet have talons that are razor sharp but one is larger and longer than the others and can easily cut a man in half. Sylvana’s neck and head resemble that of a blue tree viper. Even in color as she is a rich teal bluish green that is lighter on her underside. Though she has hints of a darker shade of this in faint stripes along her body. Atop her serpentine head is a pair of long and smooth sharp horns that sweep back elegantly as the rest of her that look more delicate than they are. Below them a smaller set and starting just above both her eyes a row of spines that she can lay down or hold erect that run down her neck and back to the base of her tail. Both are of white-ivory color. Sylvana is the maximum length for a Forest but much of it is tail. Though with her unique build she is a bit taller than most of her kin. As mentioned, her forelimbs are more like arms and she uses them as such. For she has excellent dexterity. One reason being her talons on her ‘hands’ are retractable. The razor sharp points are always out but when in kill mode they can extend to their curved dagger-like state. Her crystal, a diamond shaped Turquoise stone, is located between her throat and chest right in the center. And finally, Sylvana’s wings are similar to a falcon’s in shape, which make her a superb flyer, and have thick scaling on the upper half along the wing arm that look almost like feathers before gradually giving way to membrane going down the finger digits. Giving the membrane being of a slightly darker teal shade than her scales. (Creature inspiration! http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e296/Got...zpspbpyumbg.jpg ) Personality: To be honest, Sylvana is almost what you could consider a mercenary. She’ll kill anyone if she is offered something she likes…or even if she just doesn't like someone. Though left to her own devices, Sylvana often times just keeps to herself until she gets bored. That’s not to say she doesn't have hobbies. As a Forest, she has a knack for creating all kinds of poisons from all things around her as well as making lovely structures from all sorts of plants. But do not be fooled, she is far from a peaceful hermit. Sylvana is quite the wicked thing who loves having power over others. One of her favorite things is games. Really any games, but of course the ones where she challenges a potential victim to play something where they have a clear disadvantage. Because if they lose, she gets to have horrific fun with them. If they win, well Sylvana can’t help but respect them and hopefully use their wits to her advantage somehow later on. For Sylvana is quite the sociopath and she loves winning. It’s almost an obsession really. Another one of her favorites is asking horribly hard riddles like a Sphinx to test possible subjects regardless of species. Though there are times when Sylvana can show an odd act of having a heart now and then, but when it happens it is hard to pinpoint the reason as Sylvana probably would not tell you and if she did, it would be hidden in some form of riddle or odd gibberish just to see the look on your face. What tops this all off is her Cheshire cat (viper) like grin. While independent in her own right, Sylvana has no problem serving the Tainted Legion and taking orders because frankly most of them she is more than happy to do. Especially spying and killing. After all, she has a decent sense of work ethic and of course pride. She enjoys knowing her overlords approve of her work. Though if they did not she would consider them fools. In reality, she even considered Nidhigg a fool but of course while under his control she could hardly entertain such thoughts for long. She prefers the freedom and flexibility she has under Augari. Not that she does not understand Augari is her supreme ruler now! She just prefers her over her old lord. Though she has entertained notions of gaining rank by killing it is more for fun, Sylvana feels no real need for power. She is quite comfortable with herself and feels no need for extra responsibilities she does not want. In this sense, she can be a touch lazy and selfish. Though of course, you can snap her out of this by offering her a game like challenge. Partner: The late Lir Gilivent Rank: Would probably be a Dagger History: Sylvana was born Tainted and she could not be happier. The daughter of a Lightning and a Chaos, Sylvana’s colors were a touch surprising but the rest of her was not. The little Forest was clearly built for speed and agility with a deadly strike. Running so fast across the swamp to her chosen she was little more than a teal blur. Though when she climbed and cut her way up to perch on her chosen’s shoulder, her loveliness was coated in black mud but her wicked grin never faltered. Unfortunately, as lessons went on, it became clear to Sylvana that her human partner was not meant for tainted lifestyle. For the boy had been kidnapped and plopped in front of the eggs without a choice. The Forest did try to shape him and train him into the human she wanted. For if he was bound to her, then surely he had it in him! And it did seem the lad made progress driven by his desire to survive. Not much but it would do! Sylvana worked on that angle and pushed him hard. But sadly every tool has a breaking point. And when the lesson came to kill and torture a subject, her bonded could do no such thing and broke down. Filled with anger, frustration, and of course disappointment, Sylvana did all the dirty work and shoved the quivering young man back to their quarters. Staring at the man curled into a crying broken ball. She could see into him and saw he was at the end and would not recover. While what she did next could easily be seen as an act of hatred, in truth, it was an odd act of kindness and mercy. He even begged her to do it. Sylvana’s venom acted quickly and she even made sure to use enough to let him bypass the pain as much as she could. Part of her did grieve, but more for what they could have been. With her rider gone, Sylvana excelled in lessons. Even the top of her class. She felt she had to excel since her breed was the target of some prejudice. But of course, she did so naturally and it helped her build quite the tolerance and viciousness. This served her well when she graduated. She became a supplier of many sorts of poisons and potions to any buyer who wanted them, and a killer for hire who toyed with many humans and dragons when she could. She gained quite the reputation in her own right for her skills and wit. While Nidhogg was in power, she did not question any grim tasks that were desired of her and even did much of her own accord. When his influence faded, Sylvana led a slightly more quiet lifestyle but not by too much. Now, to pass her time, she played with her elemental powers. She tested out her venom on different life forms and mixed it with other ingredients to see what happened. But more often than not she made grand structures and artworks with various plants under her control. The sense of creation and power did give her a satisfying feeling, but she still found herself getting bored now and then. It delighted her to no end when she was able to obtain a human or dragon toy to have fun with. She did not mind serving a new leader at all now that she had more flexibility in her mind. Recently she has become quite curious and has made further appearances offering her services for the Legion. Deep down she is a little afraid of being under full control from any leader but is still thrilled to be of service and appreciated. This has prompted her to do a bit of traveling and spying for herself. Watching villages and travelers using her Forest magic to keep herself hidden. Learning secrets seems to be another one of her hobbies nowadays; whether this is just to relieve boredom or some other private agenda is yet to be seen.
