| Description: | There is very little about Gaaylaa that looks human except for the basics: two arms, too legs, plantigrade feet, two eyes, a nose, a mouth, and five digits on each limb. She is tall and willowy, almost impossibly slender, on the verge of gaunt, as if she might break at a passing wind, with long fingers sheathed in thin gloves, ears upswept and delicately pointed, fixed with ear clasps and pierced with studs, and sharply angled, smoky violet eyes. Twin fangs hang over her thin lower lip, very obvious and yet treated as naturally as any other part of her, and another set behind them are visible when she smiles. Her hair, an odd shade of lavender which may or may not be natural, is thick and slightly curled, so she pulls it back in a tail at the top of her head except for her clan-braids, which dangle in front of her ears, and bushy bangs. Appearance is important to her, and she wears clothing in whites and pastels to contrast her skin and compliment her hair. Her choices are always flattering and usually loose, and with plenty of places to hide her varied multitude of light weapons. |
| Personality: | Somewhere back in Gaaylaa's lineage there is a non-Sythyn parent, and though it doesn't show in her appearance, it shows instead in her personality, manifested in an unstable emotional state. The simplest name for her personality would be bipolar, but she swings between more than just the two extremes of manic cheer and devastating depression, for she can be trapped in either of those, but also in irritation, joy, disgust, humor, sexual arousal, or any other emotional extreme. Normally she is perfectly pleasant to be around, with a sly sense of humor and a warm heart, but there are times when she slips into an emotional rut that, though it usually passes after a few hours, can occasionally last upwards of three days. She is very much in love with her new husband, though as the gentle young man wasn't entirely prepared for her strange moods, she tends to confuse and intimidate him. |
| History: | Gaaylaa's childhood wasn't quite as normal
as most Sythyn children's are, given she isn't entirely Sythyn. She was
separated from her parents before she was weaned, one of whom went
nearly completely mad when she was only three and the other too grieved
and ashamed to rear her after that. Those who knew treated her
differently, which partially encouraged the expression of what small
instabilities her mixed blood did manifest, making worse what could have
been only a small personality quirk. She grew up keeping her secret from
as many people as she could, to avoid giving her an intense interest in
other secrets, as well. She spent her apprenticeship far from home, in
an obscure branch of a different and more prosperous country's religion,
training as a spy and guardian for the Seer-mages, and it was there she
met and married Zzyrmaan as soon as she was old enough.
It has only been a year since then, and since her nearly simultaneous graduation from nine years of training, and her first assignment was to protect and provide for an aged Seer named Ymyasorva who had grown tired of her solitary magic and wished to leave the world on a Searching mission. They have been traveling for just over a year, now, and have recently docked at a city in space called, appropriately, Star City. Their Search, so far, has come up with little, but Star City seemed at least a place to rest in comfort and restock their small ship. While Gaaylaa was sneaking around the station curiously, and the Seer Ymyasorva was resting and mentally searching out those she was Searching for, Zzyrmaan stumbled upon information about dragon bonding and, in particular, the Blood Court hatching. It seemed to him, and Ymyasorva agrees, that a dragon with such a portentous name and propensity towards balance might be just what Gaaylaa needs to gain a little stability, in her own life. Once Gaaylaa gave her somewhat skeptical permission, Zzyrmaan immediately signed her up as a candidate. |
| Abilities: | Magically, Gaaylaa has little ability, perhaps another inheritance from her non-Sythyn ancestor. All she can do is basic stealth, speed, and sense-enhancing magic, and only on herself; however, she makes good use of those as a speedy, sneaky warrioress who attacks when least expected and with deadly accuracy. More often, though, she plays spy and shadowy guardian, being not particularly fond of actual battle or assassination unless absolutely necessary. |
