Name:Lyssandraa Silverhawke (goes by Lyssa)
Age: 732 (physically 25)
Race: Vampire
Appearance: With a frame of only 5'5" and just over 110 lbs, Lyssa does not look very intimidating, but when she's angry her eyes, normally a dull silver, light up with a frightening inner fire. She tends to enjoy wearing clothes that show off her generous curves and would not interfere with mobility, but at times she also enjoys wearing feminine clothes, generally a little black number with black strappy heels. Her hair is either long, soft and dark red hanging down her back normally or bluish white, floating off her head if she fully embraces her wisp companion to empower her magick.
Personality: Normally gentle, especially with her friends, Lyssa can become quickly confrontational when dealing with men. (due to circumstances in her past... see profile) She takes any threat to those close to her personally, and will quickly stand up to defend those that cannot defend themselves. At times her temper can get the best of her, and although she might throw stuff and yell at times like those she will never hurt her friends. (or break things she has bought or damage the house on purpose) She also enjoys cooking, and she uses it as a way to relieve stress and has become the unofficial cook of VHHQ.
Equipment:
Atlantean Spear: A spear that she found as part of a dragon's horde (her companion Greenie... see profile) that has been imbued with very strong magical powers. It allows her to channel her magick more efficiently, effectively making it 10x as powerful. (it can make a simple fireball strong enough to level a city block if she's not careful)
Shovel Blade: A shovel shaped blade that she took from her creator's coven as she and her sister were escaping, it has been used to spill the blood of any of the unfortunate vampires that came after them to seek retribution. It absorbs the blood of its wielder's enemies, strengthening it and giving her a small boost of energy. It is a silver alloy, strenghtened by enchantments and all the vampire blood it has absorbed.
Shifting Gauntlets: Black gauntlets made of what feels like leather, yet is smooth as silk and hard as steel. At Lyssa's command the gauntlets can change their shape and texture, forming small spikes along their length usually or else one longer spike out the front.
Frost's Armor: Set of armor given to her by a snow demon that referred to himself as Jack Frost. Lyssa freed him from the icy crystal that was given to her by her sister when she came back from her latest trip. It helps protect her in many ways. First the gauntlets and the boots, while looking and feeling light as a feather, can block even the heaviest blade without taking any damage, unless they are swung with the power of a greater demon at least. Second, the cape allows her to summon small snowstorms at will while disappearing in them as easily as she could teleport. The belt allows her to turn her body into blowing snow and arctic wind without having to dip into her magick, and all of the pieces absorb the energy from fire, recharging the magick stored inside the armor. It doesn't absorb her own fire magick, just fire that is used against her or she can always make it absorb her own fire if there's a need.
Frost's Blade: Sword given to Lyssa along with the Armor. The blade doesn't seem to be completely set into any one shape as the weapon can become many different shapes, depending on its wielder's needs. As a sword it can be either long and straight, like a long sword, or have a slightly curved blade, like a scimitar, depending on the situation. In either shape the blade is ice cold, numbing any body part that gets hit by it and sapping the victims strength ((obviously someone that doesn't have to keep their body warm is not really affected by that much)) and quickly repeated blows to an area will eventually freeze a limb until the sword shatters it... As a wand/staff it allows the wielder to use water/ice magick with ease, often choosing the best spell for the situation on its own... ((whether it actually is the best or not depends on your view of the situation...)) The weapon also can form a double bladed sword, a short staff with a blade at each end, good for clearing out multiple attackers, when it would be to much trouble to pull a second blade or if the second blade was taken from her. As both the sword and double bladed sword the weapon can be made to leave icy trails of snow ((a snowy version of the walls of ash that Charon's claw can make for anyone that has read R.A. Salvatore and followed Artemis Entreri after he lost to Drizzt after kidnapping Regis... and escaped after the failed attack on the Dwarves to travel with Jarlaxle...)) The walls of snow don't hurt anyone, well except maybe a fire elemental would take a little damage from the cold of them, but they do block someone's vision so the wielder can move around the field better. The walls dissipate after a few minutes and heat makes them go away quicker.
Abilities:
Magick: Lyssa has great control over the four main elements of nature: earth, fire, air, and water. She mostly prefers fire, but uses air a lot as well. Along with attack and defensive magick Lyssa has also become a planeswalker, traveling to the other plains of existence when she pleases. Her primary mode of transportation takes her through the elemental plain of fire as a matter of fact (the fiery portal). When she has a chance to prepare, she can absorb attacks based on any of the elements, taking the energy behind them into herself (she can't absorb an attack she can't see coming a little bit ahead of time) that's how she is able to survive the elemental plane of fire.
Healing inversion:Lyssa is able to use her magick to transfer someone else's injuries to herself, healing the other person quickly. It doesn't affect her very much because, as a vampire, she heals the injuries she absorbs almost instantly. (should go under magick, but i wanted to explain it a bit too)
Telepathy: Lyssa can hear the thoughts of most beings, and once she hears them, is able to send thoughts back. Jazz's thoughts take all her concentration to keep out, but even if Lyssa tries her hardest, most of Jazz's thoughts still end up breaking through into her mind.
Greenie: While Greenie, a dragon she freed from stasis (see profile), is not a part of her person, he is almost always near her and will fight to protect her if necessary. He will even resume his true form to utilize his full power if there is room and a need for it. (see profile for full info on his powers... too lazy to re-write it)
Also of note: Lyssa has made a protective pact with Koji. Anyone around her will feel a protective presence surrounding her, which should serve as a warning from trying to harm her. If the person is another vampire, they will smell Lyssa's blood on Koji, marking her as under Lyssa's protection, as well as see a blood red hawk on Koji's forhead. The glyph protects Koji from vampiric glamors and other mind altering effects (those taken internally are not included: i.e. she'll still get drunk), as well as tells the vampire who is the one protecting her. (Lyssandraa's surname being Silverhawke... the hawk was the heraldic symbol on their coat of arms) The glyph is only able to be removed by Lyssa (who will only do it if Koji asks for it of her own free will) or by Koji (who would have to wish it away). It also serves to protect her from any vampires that try to feed on her or mark her as Lyssa has... if they try feeding on her against her will, they will feel as if the blood becomes fire, and will be writhing in pain until Koji runs away or wills it to stop. If they try to mark her as Lyssa has the glyph will activate and shock them as if hit full force by a thunderbolt, likely throwing them across the room and stunning them for a bit. (Koji can shut it down temporarily to allow a vampire to feed, but it automatically comes back if she is in danger, and it will be all the worse with all her blood already inside the other vampire. The anti-marking protection is always active... if she wanted another vamp to mark her thusly she would will Lyssa's away first.
And to clear up confusion: the mental protection is always there since i never mentioned that i can be shut off or anything stare and any of the things that can be temporarily turned off, Koji has to make it known she wants it to happen: i.e. if she offers her blood to someone, then the blood won't burn the vampire unless they try taking too much or take it too violently. Now i hope that cleared up any misunderstandings...)
