Murava Av'ni

[Murava Av'ni]

(( General Information ))

Character Name: Murava Av'ni
Age: Murava is 304 years old. She actively keeps track of her age down to season, and can trace her birth to an early date in spring.
Identified Court: Solitary Fey
Fey Blood: Earth Fey, though far in her background there is some Wind blood.
Appearance: Murava is a small, dainty thing. She stands at barely 5'3'', with a slender figure built for quick movements. Her hair is a deep brown, and falls in full waves to just below her shoulders. She has earthy green eyes, and a cute, round face that appears almost childlike at times. Her lids are often painted with bright shadows, which stand out stark against her pale complexion. Despite the time she spends in the sun, she seems unable to hold a tan.
Murava is also fond of transforming in to a fox. In this form, she is a tad smaller than average size for the species. Her fur is a reddish brown, though her underbelly and snout are splattered with patches of white. In order to regularly make use of this ability, she keeps a vial of fox's blood around her neck at all times.
In the way of clothing, she prefers light, airy outfits. Short skirts and thin blouses define her style, both comfortable and easy to move in. She loves vibrant colours, and often uses the petals of flowers to decorate her outfits.
When shapeshifting, clothing she may have worn is left behind. As a result, she is often left scavenging for materials to weave new outfits should she be forced to transform and flee.

Level: Level One
Powers: Murava has the power of poisons brewed within her own body. These poisons have effects that vary depending on the fey they are used on, but generally causes temporary paralysis and possibly a knock out in a case of high dosage. However, the toxin is presently only able to be secreted through the pores in her skin, therefore physical contact is required for it to take full effect. At a close distance, one will likely only feel lightheaded or sluggish.
As a result of the venom brewing in her own body, Murava is immune to most others. Her blood carries an antidote to a variety poisons, though she keeps this information to herself and prefers to remain undeterred by those looking for a cure.
Though not a power of her own birth, the Earth Fey travels with the "companionship" of a large golem. The creature, if you could call it that, is made of rock and vine held together by Earth Weaving and stands at about eight feet tall. While lacking a spirit of conventional senses, the golem is linked to Murava's own magic and soul, and thus acts as a guardian should she be threatened. It attacks only through brute force. Even while she is unconscious it will act of its "own" accord, and cannot truly be destroyed unless her life is taken. Should her magic be drained, it will crumble and return to rock until it is restored. In what was a painstaking process, it was eventually decided the golem would be called Ruebens.
Magical Knowledge: Murava is very well versed in Earth Weaving, and has found many unusual applications for it, such as the creation of her "companion". She also has an informal education in Light and Ice Weaving, which she often finds practical uses for in the form of lighting and shelter reinforcement. She has shown interest in learning more, but has yet to find a proper teacher.

(( Personality ))

Murava, at core, is a selfish Fey. She works primarily for her own wants and needs, and places herself higher on a pedestal than others around her. She will often play coy and naive to get what she wants, but underneath the facade is a manipulative mind that has no trouble trying to take advantage of other people and their weaknesses. That is not to say she will not help if she is fond of a particular person, but it will often be so that said person may in turn be more attracted and grateful to her.
Her amusement is often found in attempting to seduce wayward Fey, and it has been said in past that she conducts her love life in a way more fitting of one aligned to Fire. Passionate and headstrong, she is a fine example of a woman who indulges her every whim without care as to how it may affect her partner. She is, however, possessive of these "conquests", and will show fierce jealousy even after abandoning them and moving on to someone else.
A proud being, she will often deny her own insecurities to keep her self image. Murava is actually rather dependant on the presence of others, and will seemingly wilt when left behind. She is terrified of solitude, and out of that fear she was pressed to create Ruebens. With it by her side, she has convinced herself she is never truly alone, and has almost deluded herself in to believing it has the thoughts and feelings of a person. Any comment suggesting otherwise will likely be met with harsh response. The idea of an eternal companion is alluring to her, and deep down she will be forever searching for the one person who could fill that role.
Murava finds herself skittish and uncomfortable when she lingers too long in one area. Her time is primarily spent moving from place to place, stopping only when something grabs her interest enough to warrant a short stop. She is most calm when roaming in heavy forest, and will go out of her way to cross through one should it be nearby.

(( History ))

Murava was born to an average couple in the Earth Kingdom, and raised accordingly until her nomadic desires inclined her to leave with little word to anyone she knew. At a young age she found herself wandering the outskirts of the kingdom, spending a few decades under the wavering care of an Elder Fey. This woman taught her what she would later expand upon in Earth Weaving and shapeshifting, and was considered in Murava's mind like a second mother. Their relationship, while strained, was still one of a strange sense of love.
Fast-forward a few years, and the desire for change was yet again affecting her impulses. This time with a short goodbye, in which she was presented with the vial necklace as a memento, she set off for the life of a solitary Fey. The freedom of such was perfect in her eyes, and as such she made it a point to keep herself away from any politics brewing back in the kingdoms. After a over century of battles relatively unknown to her, Murava, while staying with a lover in Insontis City, was faced with news of a massive fissure that had drawn in the power of the Death Fey.
With a twisted sense of duty mixed in with curiosity, she made her way back to her old Fey teacher, only to find that she had passed away in the fighting. Now determined to remain neutral and distant, Murava travels to wherever she like, simply looking to indulge her desires.
