Name:: Selene
Alias:: Flame-Caller
Age:: 17
Job/Position:: Fire dancer
Location:: Wandering Argenta & Lombrica

---

Appearance::
Selene has long blonde hair with a few hints of brown in the locks. She has misty gray eyes that almost make her look blind. When she's angry or upset her eyes are almost red. She has a pale complexion and stand about 5'3" weighing around 110 lbs. Almost every look she gives a person is a fierce glare and has a fiery, dangerous aura about her. She carries her head high because she is tired of being looked down upon for being a woman. She is slender yet well muscled. It shows a bit.

She prefers to wear the colors of fire eaters. Her brother, a deceased fire eater, wore close enough to the same size of clothing as her. She likes the black pants, shirt as red as the flames themselves, black as night cloak, and boots. She prefers it much more than skirts. If she's trying to look unsuspicious she has proper women's clothing to wear. Occasionally she'll go in disguise as a man by tucking her hair skillfully up in a hat. She basically is never in just one type of clothing.

Distinguishing Features::
A few scars from knives on her arms, lower legs, and face from many fights.

Personality::
She hasn't ever been a quiet, well-behaved woman. Sure she can put on an act, but she prefers the wild craziness that really only men can enjoy fully. She has plenty of sense and loves fire. She also likes knives and always keeps one on her. She gets into fights a lot where her knife is especially important. Sure she's looked down upon by both men and women because she likes being different, but she doesn't care.

She enjoys fighting actually and threatening people. She's a dangerous girl who knows how to stand up for herself. She doesn't have many friends nor a proper home because things are always changing. She'd prefer not to be a part of anything going on between Argenta and Lombrica. She's more of a lone strolling player in a way. She'll do a bit of entertainment now and then when she needs some money. Selene hates majority of the other strolling players because that's all they do. She seeks more adventure in her life than they do. She takes a particular liking to knives and sometimes wishes she could become a soldier so she could fight with something longer like a sword. She is an excellent horse rider.

History::
She was born to Alyce and Matthius on a dark and stormy night as a twin sister to her brother Marcus. A lightning storm came and from the small window of their cottage they saw a tree fall in a great blaze of flame. Her mother took this as an omen that her son would be a fire eater. Mainly because she wouldn't hear of her only daughter being a fire eater. She sent her husband Matthius with Marcus off to find him a teacher when the twins were both twelve Her mother tried desperately to make Selene a proper farmer's daughter, but Selene was always too wild.

Two years later her mom gave up the on going battle between her and her daughter. They also received bad news. The flames that were supposed to love Marcus had devoured him. Selene knew that her mother always kept an extra set of fire eater's clothes for Marcus when he stopped by. They were almost the right size for her because Marcus hadn't exactly been muscled. She took them and left to find a teacher. Selene was fourteen. She knew it'd be hard for her to make it in a man's profession but she was determined. The teacher who had taught Marcus was happy to take Selene as an apprentice. Even though you could see that he doubted she'd do any better than her brother. He was wrong. That "omen" seen shortly after her birth was meant for her. She was an excellent fire eater after a bit of practice.

She left only a few months ago to learn more on her own. She didn't exactly know how and she went around in the clothes of a fire eater occasionally earning a few coins for food. She occasionally visits her mother who grudgingly keeps washed clothes for Selene. They aren't exactly new and just slightly ragged looking, being a bit torn from normal wear and tear. Her mom fixed them to fit her better though and used a few scraps of fabric to add a bit of decoration to the clothing. She travels all over the realm depending on where her heart leads her.

RP example::
James sat on the edge of his bed in the boy's dormitory waiting for either Sirius or Remus to return from dinner. He didn't really remember why he'd left so early...he'd only eaten half of his normal amount, which was about six pounds of food total per meal. He looked around the room. So now Wormtail decides to leave out a camera? He really wished he could have seen Sirius sleeping like a half-dead monkey. Would've been hilarious, especially if it had been of his doing. He looked at the only neat part of the room- Moony's. How could a person be so neat? Especially a werewolf fifteen year old boy. Padfoot's and his own side of the room was trashed. Wormtail's was about halfway between neat and Sirius/James on the neatness scale.

He looked in the pocket of the robes he'd been wearing earlier that were hanging on the edge of the rods supporting the bed curtains. There it was. He pulled out the small box. Emergency food stash. He pulled out one of the tightly wrapped objects, slightly squashed from the other twenty or so in the box. He tossed the box back in the robes pocket and sticking the piece of food(just the food, not the wrapper) into is mouth. Oh how he loved Honeyduke's chocolate.

He looked around his bed. At least a weeks worth of robes on the floor. Bored, with nothing better to do, besides the pile of homework waiting for him, he tossed them into a messy pile that would make at least one of his friends think he'd made a home for some creature he'd found that could be used for a prank. There was still a huge mess, half of which he didn't even recognize. Though they were probably things that he'd left over the summer one year and shoved out from under thenext only to be soved back under again and forgotten. And so the cycle repeats until half of what had been in his trunk one year was shoved under the bed until it started overflowing and scattering itself across the floor around his bed.

Now that that was done and he didn't feel like cleaning up anything else or doing his homework he decided to make it look like something was living in his school robes. Several of which he'd found to be old and too small...from a past school year apparently. He made a rodent-sized hole in the robes and made the pile a bit bigger so that it looked a bit more roomy for a large rodent.

He heard two voices he recognized and footsteps coming up the dormitory stairs. He hurriedly stood up and sat back on the edge of the bed like he hadn't been doing anything worth questioning. He pretended to be reading an old textbook, the first thing he grabbed off the floor and looked up when the door opened letting the book fall back to it's place on the floor...or what part of the floor you could see.

Great start.
I would like to ask you abot maybe giving this character some association with the mountains north of Lombrica. It's up to you what you do, but I have a character from the north who is a female wanderer, and it would be nice to have someone to RP with. ^.^

[``roxane]

Lovely.
Fire-dancer is fine, so remove the rest of the job line and I'll accept.

[Selene]

Fixed. I just love fire dancers. =]
