"They're no different from you or me."
~Name~
Ale (like saying ginger ale) Corbeau (cor-bow).
The raven's name is Tot.
~Nicknames~
None. Ale is short enough.
~Gender~
Female
~Age~
17
~Race~
Human/natural-born Necromancer
~Character Description~
Straight, black hair, that falls a little past her shoulders, it's not crazy long. Pale, milky skin and brown eyes. Her usual attire consists of an off-white off-the-shoulder shirt that has the word "Necromaniac" plastered across the front of it over a white skull. Down her right sleeve she usually has a black band tied up and down the entire length, and she wears a few bracelets/cuffs around her wrists. A red tie with a skull on it hangs from around her neck pretty loosely. A pretty chunky black belt holding up a fairly tattered and uneven gray skirt. She hangs a small pouch and a black feather from her belt, as well as a small white cross. Redish-faded striped stockings and plain, black shoes. And on each of her palms/skin of her digits she bears intricate symbols that are actually birthmarks, believe it or not.
~Alignment~
Generally good. But usually watches her own interests first.
~Personality~
Usually a loner, wears a tough shell. But she's not made of stone. She definitely has feelings, and they come through, but she also has a hard time expressing them properly.
~History~
Her parents were interested in the occult, to say the least. They found the idea of dead people very intriguing, and proceeded to experiment with it, becoming obsessed with it. They wouldn't let up their studies, not even when her mother was pregnant... They continued performing their rituals, and even made it so far as to ask for a "blessing" for their unborn daughter, at a price that they were only too willing to pay in order to leave her with a "gift" in her future.
Ale was born in the midst of it all, her parents delighted with her birthmarks on her hands, instead of becoming alarmed like any other sane parent would have been. They praised them... continued their dangerous studies... and it's to be assumed they died peacefully when Ale turned 6. The reason was unknown to many, despite tiny black handprints having been present around their throats at the time of the discovery of the bodies.
She was an awfully sharp child by that age, though. She had learned to fend for herself when her parents were too busy with their obsession.
Ale turned tail and ran from the house, and for several years, we'll assume she spent surviving in the streets and trying to learn more about this ability that has been granted to her, this ability that was as natural and unconscious as breathing.
And traveling from one town to another, she heard rumors of a place where she might not be rejected as much. Where perhaps she could go to learn about herself and start her deeper studies in peace.
Copyrighted Powers Academy, was it?
~Any Weapons/Armor You Have~
The feather on her waist can be turned into a black short sword by Ale, and on some occassions, if needed, her raven, Tot, can bind itself to her arm, giving her a very large black knuckle/shield to work with. She can also use any feathers dropped by Tot as daggers/blades, however she sees fit.
~Any Items You Have~
A small pouch hanging from her waist that carries a pack of cigarettes and pea-sized bombs enchanted to not detonate until Ale uses them willingly. She also has a small white cross on her waist that is enchanted to keep away more harmful and evil spirits, since she's practically a magnet for those kinds of spirits/demons.
She also has a collection of arcane/occult books and old/fresh bones that she works with, as well as several vials of questionable fluids, all of which she keeps in rather large bags that she keeps changing since the bags she finds are never good enough to carry all of her effects for very long.
~Any Battle Skills/Magical Powers You Have~
She is a natural necromancer. I say natural because she can do it without thinking about it. It's the blessing that she received from the demon that took her parents life afterward, the ability to see and manipulate anything and everything that is dead (bones, dead bodies, sees souls, etc., etc.). That's her starting point, her (as of yet) undiscovered potential. Now she's learning how to use it and apply it more to certain things. Like, for instance, the other day she was experimenting with the idea of building souls and creating a small form of life... and wound up with Tot. She still working on it.
~Character Weakness/Flaws~
She doesn't quite understand the full-grasp of her powers, yet. A part of her wants to be loved very much... but whoever she loves literally crumbles under her fingertips. Yes, sir. What a "blessing". She's apprehensive around churches and the like, and has a particularly ridiculous fear.
~Friends~
She considers her raven, Tot, to be her only friend at the moment.
~Enemies~
"You can't see them."
~Lover~
She has none at the moment. Nor does it seem as if she will be able to.
