After some debate, I decided to start this thread to keep track of and introduce the characters I enjoy playing as.
I am, at heart, an actor, I have lived as me long enough to know that I like to escape from myself and my world and if you lived my life, you would want to escape to.. trust me.
So, If you see a Character that perks your interest, just say so, drop me a PM and maybe we can start a play.
NOTE: These are how I see them, I might change them a bit for the right RP or the right person, but I made these characters to be played as I see them, not be mangled by how someone thinks I should play them.
=================================================================
Name: Cheska Malikov.
Age: 45. [Young for her race.]
Height: 3 feet tall. [Tall for her race.]
Weight: 31lbs.
Hair: Red, long and straight.
Eyes: Green, can become amber when excited.
Handed: Ambidextrous, favors the left.
Descriptive words: Intelligent, strong willed, cheerful, curious, shy, silly, social, Demure
Background:
Born to a large family, Cheska was always a bit eager to find her own space in the world, a place to call her own.
This was the basis for her learning to explore and discover new things, along with her natural inclinations as a Halfling.
As she learned about the world around her, she started to make notes and draw what she saw, this lead to her making maps of places she had been and wanting to find new places to draw.
Her grand aunt insisted she learn some skills to keep her from trouble and so she became skilled at opening locks and escaping from simple traps and bonds, it seemed that larger folk had strange ideas about her people and always wanting to lock them up. She will not steal for monetary gain and will become annoyed with those insist she should.
She resides in a town just far enough away from her family that she can be separate from much of the day to day life of her people. But close enough that a days journey will allow her to visit frequently.
While she has a normal home on the edge of town, built according to her needs, she also owns a caravan wagon or Vardo, enhanced with magic, this vehicle needs no horses to pull it can is much bigger on the inside. She even has room for non-halfling sized guest, with sitting space and comfortable beds.
Cheska's ancestry comes from pure Halfling stock an a Dragon.
Dragons, being magical creatures, can assume any shape or form they wish and it was one such Copper Dragoness, who, on a whim, assumed the shape of a Halfling woman and did lay with a mighty Halfling explorer. Or so the story goes, but since great, great, great, great, great grandmother still lives and is perhaps one of the more powerful magical members of the family, the story is hard to dispute.
This is why Cheska is also fairly talented with natural magic or Sorcery.
She has just barely begun to explore that side of herself, so she isn't very skilled with it and uses for more practical things than anything else.
Quirks:
Cheska hates being called a Thief by anyone. Her people have an undeserved reputation for being thieves, but the fact is, only a rare few are thieves, the majority just tend to burrow things without asking. They have no real word for Thief.
Cheska would rather collect old books and scrolls than gold coins, her library is extensive and she is happy to share most of it.
Cheska is odd in that she keeps her own things locked away from relative hands. She blames her time among humans for this.
Cheska loves sweets, when given choices between grand meals and a really good cinnamon roll, the roll wins.
Cheska has very little of the true wanderlust her people have, she is very content to live in one place for long periods and will only explore if she knows she might find a new treasure [Book] to bring home.
