Name: Armana Hinkyri (Ar-man-uh Hin-kye-ree)
Age: 16
Date of Birth: June 16
Homelands: Armana was born in the Forest of Jinchura high above the world in the heavens. The Forest of Jinchura is lower down in the heavens, and is accessible to humans and mortals. Because of this, it is heavily populated by half-angels and other such creatures that are a mix of angelic and human blood. The Forest of Jinchura is very peaceful and not a major angelic site, so it rarely sees conflict with demons or other creatures of darkness.
Race: Half-Angel - Armana has a natural resistance to darkness attacks, her healing and holy techniques are more powerful, but physical attacks sometimes hit her rather hard. Because of her human side, her skills are more broad then most races, but she has a more difficult time gaining mastery over any specific thing.
Class: Bard - Armana prefers peace, music, love, and revelry over fighting and bloodshed.
Final: Divine Inspiration
From Armana's sacred harp comes a sweet melody. Gentle at first, soothing. It finds its way into even the most hardened and cruel monster's mind and calms them. They relax and begin to enter a trance, barely still awake.
Suddenly, the tune begins to grow a little bit less calm. Though still pretty gentle, the melody becomes commanding, and the creatures that listen to the song must fight a mental battle against the music to avoid falling for it. If they fail, Armana gains control and can use the monsters to do her bidding. If it fails, the monster becomes riled up, but within a few seconds becomes calm again with the music. The melody can't take over the monster once it has successfully battled against the music until the next time the alluring song is played.
Because Armana is very peaceful, she usually doesn't force whatever monster falls for her song to fight for her, but rather uses them to peacefully carry her to safety or help her to solve some kind of difficult problem. This move drains her energy, so that not only can she no longer perform this song for a couple of hours, but she can't use any songs that are magic for at least a few minutes.
Appearance:
Armana is beautiful in many ways, although most Americans wouldn't consider her "sexy." She's very petite and has beautifully sharp features. Her Angelic side gave her these sharp features. Armana's eyes are large and cute but shine with a beautiful flare. Despite her angelic and human roots, she has eyes with natural colors that reflect neither bloodline. Her eyes are a deep red, but not nearly crimson. Armana's hair is long and straight, but is also very silky and thin thanks to her angelic bloodlines. Her hair is a reddish pink, but this color isn't natural. She used a spell long ago to change its colors, and because she lives in a society that isn't very judgmental her parents didn't mind.
Armana stands at about 5'8", which isn't short at all for a human girl, but is somewhat short for an Angel. The blood of both mixed together causes her to stand at a decent height. Armana has a delicate but beautiful figure, so she only weighs about 132 pounds. Armana's nails are long and painted a rosy red. Her hands are fine and her skin is smooth and beautiful, almost entirely without pimples because of her Angelic side. The only reason she wouldn't be considered "sexy" is because, despite all of her beautiful traits, she has a rather small bust size as well as a small waist.
Personality:
Armana is a bit shy, although she can be drawn out from her corner if someone asks for her to sing to them or play her harp for them. Armana is a peace-lover, and she hates to see things hurt. The only time she ever fights or hurts something is if she is in danger for her life, and even then she tries to avoid combat. Armana prefers the peaceful way out of everything. If there's one thing she loves, it would definitely be just peacefully listening to harmonic music. One major thing Armana loves in a man would be someone who is willing to listen to her and accept her.
Background:
Armana was born in the skies of heaven, though on the much lower parts. She was raised in the Forest of Jinchura. Her father, Vasen Hinkyri, was an Angel. Meanwhile her mother was a human. Armana never really knew her mother well enough, but apparently she had committed some grave dishonor and so was banished from the forest, her name never to be mentioned again. Because of this, Armana doesn't even know her mother's name.
Being a Human-Angel crossbreed isn't a bad or dishonorable thing in the Forest of Jinchura. In fact, it's the home to more Human-Angel crossbreeds then just about any other place in the world. But Armana is still shunned and looked down upon because of the despicable act that her mother committed.
As Armana grew older, she became more and more accustomed to hearing harmonic music left and right. Her village was filled with the beauty of music and the glory of slow, melodic dancing. She herself was never interested in the dancing, but she loved the music and couldn't keep away from it. Eventually she began to take lessons in a variety of instruments, yet none of them appeased her tastes. Finally she discovered one instrument that had the perfect beauty and pitch, the harp. Armana was amazed at the instruments beautifully soft notes. She spent countless hours learning every tune she could, never ceasing in her thirst for music. One of the many reasons she spent so much time practicing her music was that she couldn't make many friends because they all shunned her.
One day Armana learned that her mother was still alive. She was spying on a conversation between two people on Armana's mother. Armana was very unsettled. She didn't get enough information to understand what her mother had done, but that night she packed her bags. Without telling anyone, not even her father, Armana slipped away in the middle of the night to find her mother and learn why the village shunned her so.
