Name: Aquamarine (Maria)
Gender: Female
Race: Water Nymph
Corner Preference: Water
Age: 20
Description: Aquamarine is of average height, around five foot six inches. Her body is slender and curvy in all of the right places, built like that of a ballerina, more for speed and agility then strength and endurance. Her limbs are well proportioned, long, slender arms and legs with delicate fingers and toes. Her complexion is a creamy, pale color and her eyes are the color of the water in which she was born, clear as the purest diamond. Her lips are a rosy pink hue and her eye brows are perfectly curved and thin, her nose is small and feminine. Her hair is a medium chestnut color with red-brown highlights. It falls just past her shoulders to about her shoulder blades. It isn't pin straight and it isn't curly, it has a natural wave to it, almost as if she was standing in the water.
Her clothing consists of a navy blue halter styled top. It cuts off a good six inches before her naval and had silky frill around the edges. On the bottom part of the shirt the silky is very thin but around her neck it's much more ruffly. She had two sleeves at come up to the upper part of her arm and are tightened with blue ribbons. They are made of silk and flow freely. Her skirt is the same color as her top, it goes down to the floor and has a long slit up the left side that stops just at the top of her hip. It is a fairly simple piece of clothing. There is no lace or frills on this piece of material. Her shoes white ankle boots. There is a small heel on them but not enough to make them uncomfortable. The boots have cuffs on them that fold over and around the cuffs are a wave like design.
For accessories, Aquamarine has her ears pierced four times on each ear. Each hole has a small silver hoop in them except for the first hole on her right ear. That earring is a long chain of colored beads consisting of different blues yellows and greens for colors. Around her right wrist is a series of slim silver chains that are all connected by a crystal ring. On her left wrist is a thicker gold bang with sapphires embedded into it. She also wears a loose belt around her waist. It has sapphires linked together for most of it but then turns into a durable black cord that then turns into a string of charms consistent of various seashells and beads.
Personality: Aquamarine was born of the waves. She, like all other nymphs, is the embodiment of the element that she was born under. Due to the fact that she had no parents, she was raised by older nymphs. Nymphs are a generally peaceful race and Aquamarine is no acception. She has a soft voice and almost never yells, some may even consider it an impossible feat. She doesn't like to put others down and is sometimes easily intimidated. She knows how to fight but it is for self defense more than anything. She would rather try to talk out a conflict than fight. She is very determined to find the good in all people, claiming that no matter how evil they may act, there is kindness somewhere in their hearts. She doesn't like it when she is scolded or other people yell at her. She isn't one to hide her emotions, she wears them on her sleeve and that sometimes leaves her vulnerable to get hurt.
She has a very mature and calm exterior most of the time but sometimes she can be curious and naive. She doesn't like people who are fake and won't change herself to please others. She's happy the way she is and if someone can't accept that, she won't associate with them unless she absolutely has to.
Aquamarine loves every aspect of nature, it has a calming effect of her, especially the water, it is her safe haven. Anywhere there is water near, she feels a sense of inner peace. She is very much like the water, peaceful and willing to go wherever life wishes to take her. She loved the rain and snow as well. Her favorite time of day is actually night, she often stays up late to watch the stars, sometimes trying to count them, even though she knows it's impossible.
Aquamarine hates it when people are too negative, she's a big optimist and doesn't like it when others rain on her parade. She will sometimes try to brighten the mood but even her patience wears thin at some point. She also dislikes thunder storms. The loud clash of thunder and the bright flash of lightning make her very uneasy. She especially hates being outside during a storm. She dislikes hurricanes and tornadoes as well. She detests the damage that such violent weather does to the trees and wildlife.
Skills: Aquamarine's skills are as follows:
-Breathing under water: Due to the fact that she is an embodiment of water, she can breath in it.
-Walking over the water: Walking on top of the water surface.
-Healing: Using the water to heal injuries both minor and serious. Minor injuries are healed completely but the more serious they get, the less of an effect her magic has. The least it can do to a wound that's outside of her abilities is help to take away infection and speed up the healing slightly. She cannot heal illness only wounds.
-Hydrokinesis: Being able to control water and make it obey her every command. She can also condense the water around her in the air and use it. Though the larger amount of water she commands, the more effort and power it takes. As she gets older, her power will continue to grow. Sge can currently command anything from a fifteen foot wave and under, her powers are still weak and developing due to her young age compared to most ancient nyphms.
-Ice: Freeze the water into ice, though while water is ice, she cannot control it.
Sample Post: Aquamarine sat on a rock at the edge of a pond. The wind played with her hair in a way that made it seem as if she was actually in the water, giving it a fluid waving motion. The glow of the water's surface reflected off of her pale skin, adding to her oceanic appearance. She pulled her knees to her chest and rested her chin on them, just staring out into the clear depths of the shallow pond. She watched as colorful fish swam by the edge of the pond. Some where alone and some where in groups. She laughed softly as a baby frog hopped clumsily into the water, making a big splash as opposed to it's parent who dove in with practiced perfection, making to splash as it broke the water's crystalline surface.
"There you are Aquamarine! I've been looking all over for you! Marta was worried when you never came back to lessons after mid-morning rest. Do you know how long it took me to find you?"
Aquamarine's head snapped to her left as a shrill and distressed voice broke through her serene thoughts. The voice of her fellow nymph was discordant to the peaceful quite that had now been shattered with little hope of return at this particular moment. The nymph was pale, as most water nymphs are. Her eyes were the color of the sea and her hair was golden blond. If she was in the water she would have undoubtedly looked like a mermaid. She was tall and had willowy limbs, they weren't as well proportioned as Aquamarines, but that did nothing to hinder her beauty. Her attire was a simple blue sun dress with thin straps holding it up. She had her hands on her hips and her facial expression was at a cross between a scowl and relief.
Aquamarine cast her an apologetic glance, "I'm sorry Selena. You know how I get on days like this. I mean the sun is perfect today, it made the pond look so lively! All of the fish seemed to think so too, I've never seen them so friendly, they were almost swimming up to me. And the frogs where out as well, I got to see them jump into the pond. One hour turned into four and before I knew it, you were here looking for me. Time flew by so fast, please believe me when I say that I'm truly sorry."
Selena couldn't stay mad at Aquamarine. Truth be told, none of the other nymphs really could. She was never one to do anything seriously wrong and if she did mess up, such as she had done now, she was always truly sorry. Anyone could see it in her eyes, she was just that easy to read.
Sighing, Aquamarine stood up, stretching her arms up to the sky and letting out a yawn before giving the pond one last glance. She turned to Selena and smiled, "Alright, let's go back before Marta thinks that you've gone missing too. The last thing we need is another search party coming out to find us and them getting lost."
One eye, one horn, flying purple people eater.
