"What if?"/ Sample post [18 Jan 2011|12:32am]
She is a thief, a pirate, and a Thangarian. So many other things too wrapped up into a leather and velvet clad piece of danger. Which was why she had been flying from it in a tiny little shuttle that did not get her far. Not with the injuries she hadn't had time to see to. That was how she had ended up crashing the shuttle. Too much pain and the need to land.

She was also terrified. So when a Saint Rouch cop gets his arm broken. Then makes a call because a Thangarian just flew off? Someone has to take notice. And it is an old city too so she gets distracted by how pretty it is. Then lands with a painful thud in the church yard of an old place. She stares up at it in the night and chuckles.

"How pretty." Then she sits up slipping and sliding in the grass just a bit before she starts to poke at her wounds and starts trying to treat them.

She'd go back for the shuttle latter. Maybe see if she could call her Uncle. But she hears something and pulls out her gun ans hopes she can aim straight. She certainly couldn't fly straight.

"Someone there? Ya all better just b-back off. Don't need any trouble. Make 'nough of that on my own."

Player (nickname, handle)/ LJ: Beth
Email: emadonna04@alumni.unity.edu
AIM (if you have one): chappaiguardian
Character Name: Sherearia Thos (Sher)
Character LJ (if applicable): spacerthief
Physical description (face, build, weight): A well built young Thangarian with very unusually dyed red and black hair. She tends to wear it loose and wears heavy make up that on Earth would be called either gothic or punk rocker. She does tend to favor both sub-cultures very well. She enjoys wearing leather and velvet since both keep her warm and allow her an excellent amount of movement.

She also wears a heavy leather collar around her neck. It is to hide some of the few angry scars that she has from her childhood. And she also has a few different piercings from her career as a thief and pirate.

She also has a few tattoos on her arms and on her back from different pirate crews she was fond enough of at the time to keep a reminder of. The most distinctive though is a pair of red wings on her left thigh.

Also the ring finger on her right hand is missing, replaced with a prosthetic that few wold recognize right away. This is a detachable one too.
Age: 66 (Thangarian equivalent of 16)
Birthday: September 12
Codename (if using one: Red Wing
PB: (If using one.) Larisa Oleynik

Abilities: Wings, combat training, stealth, and thievery. Also can pilot smaller space ships. Like most self proclaimed space pirates she can also act as a con artist though she is only really good at what others would call getting 'easy marks'.

Also her prosthetic finger can be used to pick locks, it reconfigures itself to be able to fit most electronic locks.

Also standard Thangarian physiology over all.
Weaknesses and flaws: She's young for a Thangarian that makes her both impulsive and quicker to anger than an average Thangarian. She also can't help but steal things especially if they happen to be shiny a bit like a magpie. She also tends to say what's on her mind and tends to forget that people might object to that.

She also has a fondness for everything people tell her she's too young to have. From cigars to alcohol.
Character location/Home: Thangar Downside and pretty much anywhere else
Alignment (villain, hero etc): Neutral
Team: None
Relatives (living/dead?): Xavier Thos (Father, dead), Sarlim Thos( Mother, dead), Denver Thos( older brother, living),Thyios Thos (Uncle, living)
Backstory: She doesn't remember her parents. But she remembers her brother grabbing her from her bed as a child and running into the night. She remembers nights when it was so cold that her brother sold parts of himself to keep them safe at night.

It took a few years before their Uncle found them. He was a criminal though so he took them away from Thangar where he might have gotten killed and left them without family. So he decided to spend the following years teaching them to survive without having to give anything up. He wanted them to be able to be free to choose their own fates. He also desired to prepare them in case they all had to separate. This helped drive Sher into being angry. She hated the idea she might not get to stay with the people who should have become her new constants.

And so Denver was the first to depart. He became a priest for a god of thieves on a backwater world that thought he was their equivalent of an angel. She stayed with her Uncle for a long time.

But when she turned fifty she became a mouthy and bratty teenager so to speak and ran off to have fun and adventures. She also wanted to be the one to leave first out of a deep fear that her Uncle would abandon her for a bigger score as a con man.

Her Uncle sometimes finds her and threatens to turn her over his knee but mostly fusses over the girl who might as well be his daughter. She doesn't know how to react to his paternal attiude towards her but basks in it when she feels safe staying near him.

All in all though she loves being a space pirate. It isn't a life she can so easily give up.


How do you plan to introduce the character to the game?: Being a space pirate! Currently with a crew that goes against some of the principles she has. They attack the Darkstars. During the fight she does some casual backstabbing and getting injured by her old crew she decides to flee. She ends up on Earth since it's close and gets into more trouble while she's there.

What are you planning to do with this character? Misadventures in being a space pirate. Maybe learning some honor and real principals.

Also being mouthy and flirting with being a good guy who does bad things.

It would also be fun to play with the stranger in a strange land theme whenever she is on Earth. And for her to deal with not being a "Hawk family" kind of Thangarian since I'm fairly certain people on Earth might not be as trusting of her because she doesn't exactly look like what people would expect of a good guy.

What do you want to see happen with this character?: Fun and adventures in space and on Earth. I want her to make a name for herself that she can start to take pride in too since up to this point in her life it has been largely about just surviving and she doesn't truly "take pride" in anything except knowing she has been able to survive.
