Loriella
Posted: 18 Jul 2006, 12:39Full Name: Loriella Mori'Dagnir
Nicknames: Lori, Songstress
Date of Birth: April 1st
Age: Young adult (mid 30s)
Race: Feir'dal, some Teir'dal ancestry
Gender: Female
Hair: Light blonde with fine strands of white and black woven through. Long and thick, she usually secures it in a series of three lover's haste knots at the back of her head, some pieces falling loose to frame her face. When entertaining, or in matters of diplomacy, she will adorn it with small jewels and/or flowers.
Skin: Darkly tanned from a combination of her heritage and her time spent outdoors in training. At the base of her spine, she bears an inked mark in the style of a Feir'dal shroud. Originally cast in black ink, the stylized harp design shimmers green, twining branches and vines to create a V-shaped instrument rising from the small of her back. The strings of the harp are cast in sparkling crimson.
Eyes: Crystal clear blue, though they sometimes darken to almost black during performances.
Height: 4'11"
Weight: Fluctuates between 85 lbs to 90 lbs, depending on how much she has been training and how much honied mead she has been drinking. She is below her average weight and quite thin presently.
Place of residence: Varies, most often seen in Freeport.
Place of Birth: Willow Wood
Known Relatives:
Grandfather: Zinthas Mori'Dagnir - She came to Freeport in search of him, to find him, and then to lose him again. A former shadowknight, he is now a troubadour.
Brother: Atros Shadowmaw - Twins, though they appeared dissimilar since his return from his journeys. Atros is a druid (like their half-sister, Tera), though he is seemingly colored by something darker. He has once again disappeared.
Sister: Teralysta Mori'Dagnir - A half-sister with whom she was recently reunited. Lori had left Qeynos before she knew her mother was expecting another child. Lori previously entrusted her sister with the care of her home in North Freeport, but now she has been missing for some time. Lori suspects she went off in search of Atros, but Tera is instead living in Neriak.
Religion/Philosophy:
She once leaned heavily toward Innoruuk, embracing the Father's Hatred, and had studied under one who claimed to be his most fervent disciple. In years past, she had proven herself to the Seraph and uncovered an ancient altar deep within the inner sanctum of Mayong Mistmoore. Her adherence to the religion of Hate has begun to falter, however, with the death of her mentor and other factors that have since come into play. Chaotic by nature, Lori eschews conformation to the rules of society. Though she had at one time attempted to fit in, she no longer allows the opinions or consensus of others to dictate her actions. She has begun to distance herself from the populace as a whole, preferring the company of a select few to the acceptance of many. While she regularly attends various taverns and functions, she has no qualms about freely speaking her mind.
Occupation: At present, she no longer performs for the public, having found that the ferocity of her songs are no longer safe for common consumption. Her songs fuck people up, simply put. Lori keeps her dirges to the hunt, but inwardly misses her time on the stage of the Soulfire. Recently, she has taken on a position with the shipping company, Pendulum, and has begun contemplating taking to the stage once more. She has a few pieces prepared, should any performers fail to show and she will have to grudgingly fill in.
Group/Guild affiliation: Pendulum
Guild Rank: Entertainment Coordinator
Enemies: Any enemy of Freeport, Thexians
Likes: Flowers, especially those that bloom in the late evening; the arts; turmoil, chaos, her blades
Favorite Foods: Fayberries
Favorite Drinks: Honied mead
Favorite Colors: White, light blue
Weapons of Choice: A hidden dagger strapped to her upper, inner thigh. Outwardly, she sports two short swords. She will use any bladed weapon that increases her combat ability and talents, so long as she is able to use it quickly.
Dislikes: Ignorance and prejudice, those who deny or suppress their darker nature (Qeynosians), waking up early, crowds, those who patronize or talk down to her. Two-faced assholes. Multi-tasking.
Hobbies: A connoisseur of the fine arts, Lori loves to sing, dance, sketch, and paint. She enjoys the pursuit of knowledge, poetry, and studies history and lore avidly. Though she does not remember, her Erudian step-father had begun to school her at a very young age in academia. She also loves to swim and actively seeks out waterfalls in secluded areas. She is solitary by choice.
Physical Features: Extremely agile, her early training in dance has given her an advantage in the field of battle. She is quick and small, though her form is not as lean as that of a trained assassin. Instead, she possesses an abundant amount of feminine curves. She would say her hair is her most striking feature, though it is instead her direct, clear eyes and her wide, full mouth. Round cheeks give her an ever-present youthful appearance, and she uses this to her advantage in many situations. A faint, thin white scar stands out in relief against her right cheek, a self-inflicted reminder.
Special Abilities: None, though she finds the ability to communicate telepathically to those with whom she establishes a connection intriguing. She is also fairly intuitive when it comes to identifying those who aren't quite mortal, due to her time spent around such beings.
Positive Personality Traits: Loyal and adaptable, Lori has worked very hard to learn the survival skills of Freeport. She comes across as a fairly outgoing and vivacious elf to most she encounters, though this is a carefully constructed deception.
Negative Personality Traits: Stubborn, opinionated, sensitive, and quick to anger. She also has a long memory and tends to carry a grudge. Lori can also be quite moody and oddly distant. She trusts no one and cares for very, very few.
Misc. Quirks: Possessing an odd sense of humor, she often uses wit to diffuse or divert attention. She has a nervous habit of biting the fleshy portion of her thumb when under duress. She finds it extremely hard to sit still and will often wander and get lost a lot.
Played by What Famous Person: Gwen Stefani
Theme Songs: Picking up Pieces - Blue October
History:Born in the Willow Wood, Lori does not remember her father. She and Atros were instead raised by their Erudian step-father, an exile of Freeport with whom her mother became infatuated. This former necromancer, though extremely intelligent, was also equally sadistic. As she grew older, he began to tutor her in other arts besides academic. When the twins reached adolescence, Atros was thrown out onto the streets and Lori had never thought to see him again, presuming him dead. The young girl took to the streets, avoiding her home whenever possible, and learning the ways of an assassin, though she wasnt very good at it. However, she was adept enough to surprise her step-father one night, cutting his life short with a well-placed blade and suffocation, after which she fled to Freeport in search of her grandfather.
