The Essence of Horror.

The Essence of Horror is not only death. It is not only violence.

It is Terror. It is Fear.

It is dread, looking over your shoulder on a dark, lonesome road and feeling that someone is behind you, yet you see no one.

It is the nightmares that keep you from getting a good night's sleep.

It clasps its claw around your heart, freezing your blood.

But the fear, the feeling when Horror has you in its grasp...

You cannot live without it.

The Essence of Horror is not only death. It is life as well.


(So Cheesy. Still a work in progress. trying to figure out the format.)

Name of Scent: Echo
Gender: Female
Scent: Ashes, Copper, White Lillies, Scarlet Lychnis
Physical description for each stage:
Unlit
~~~~~

The oil's appearance seems more like ashes with blood red drops in it, than oil, though its constancy is truly that of oil. Even when lightly stirred, the red stays formed into neat drops in the burner's cup. The stand is a pure silver.

Lit
~~~~~

Once lit, a white smoke lifts from it, laying across the blood spotted, ash-like oil.

Child
~~~~~

Echo is an unusual child, with bloody-looking hair that seems to drip, but the drops never touch anything. Her bangs-less hair doesn't feel wet, though it looks like it. Her eyes are a deep black that seem to stare into your very soul. She wears a long white gown that seem to show up with red spots on it one time you look at her, and then other times, they aren't there. She wears no shoes, and leaves ashy footprints, and sometimes bloody footprints, when she walks. The footprints disappear not long after.

Adolescent
~~~~~

As adolescent, Echo's hair becomes longer, going down to her elbows and hanging in her face. The red spots on her dress no longer disappearing, and her dress is red around the collar, sleeves, and hem. Her nails are longer, being the same color as her hair. Short streaks of red run from the corners of her eyes.

Adult
~~~~~

As an Adult, her hair has gotten much longer, though she keeps it back in a high ponytail. The dress she wears has become completely red, a white lily bud resting on her collar. She wears red shoes. The red streaks look more like red tears coming from her eyes.

Elder
~~~~~

In her Elder Stage, her hair is pulled back in a bun. Her red dress looks as though it come from the Victorian age. The white lily on her collar has opened up. The red tears now reach down to her jawline.

Personality:
Child
~~~~~

As a child, Echo seems quiet and reserved. She watches everyone and everything around her. She likes attempt to scare people whenever she can. She doesn't think things through all the way, and sometimes her scare attempts doesn't have the effects she wants. When this happens, or when she gets the proper reaction, she usually leaves them alone for awhile.

Adolescent
~~~~~

As an Adolescent, she learned that her childish tricks were only that. Childish tricks. She upgraded her tactics to be, as she considered them, more sophisticated means. Coming up behind someone and making scary sounds wasn't enough. She felt the need for people to be more scared than silly jump scares. She took to making herself look covered in blood, to hear their screams. She would come at people with knives, but would always seem to disappear whenever she was about to get caught. When she's not busy scaring people, she does tend to make friends. She always finds people's fear to be highly amusing.

Adult
~~~~~

As an adult, she seemed to grow out of her scaring stage, and preferred a more subtle way of experiencing someone else's fear. She found peoples fear of scary movies to be more amusing, sitting and watching their reactions to the movies. How they could be afraid of something that was not truly there, didn't make much sense. Which made it even more fun.

Personality in three key words: Quiet, Mischievous,

Wings: N/A

This is just a quick look over response:

For the ingredients for the Scent itself, add something red to the mix. The copper works for the smell of blood, but it doesn't help directly translate to the color as copper is an orange-ish color.

I'd add Scarlet Lychnis to the mix. It's bright red, and the petals look like drips of blood. It's also nicknamed Tears of Christ, ala the whole Crucifixion thing.

As for personality, change out Scary. It's too broad and generic. She could be considered scary just for the way she looks, but how would being scary really translate into a personality trait, you know?

I'd make a list of what actually makes someone scary and then pick one of those. Tailoring it down will help in the long run :3
