Personality

At her core, Elizah is a caregiver.  She cares deeply about those close to her and wants to protect them and nurture them to the best of her ability. Despite that, she's rather lonely.  Elizah dreams of an epic romance on the high seas.  Being swept off her feet by a gallant man fills her mind.  Someone to care for her and protect her in the way that she does for those she cares about.  That's all she wants.  She's prone to falling in and out of love quickly as her suitor does something that disrupts her perfect image of them in her mind.

Elizah has something of a sadistic edge.  Once someone has made her angry, she likes to toy with them before going in for the kill whether that be metaphorical or literal. She holds grudges and is prone to petty acts of jealousy, straying into uncomfortable territories at times.  Elizah can come around to forgiving someone eventually after a suitable amount of payback.

Appearance

Tall and slender with raven black hair, Elizah is a standard of beauty among fishmen as well as other races.  Her porcelain fair skin is smooth and unmarked by any blemish or scar.  She can pass for human in spite what happens every time she opens her mouth. While her face may look outwardly human, her mouth can split her face open to reveal circular rows of serrated teeth.  She has a long tongue that drapes down out of her mouth and to her torso.  Her mouth reveals what she really is.  A parasite.

To obscure her true nature, she often wears a long scarf no matter the season. Regardless of the season, Elizah always dresses nicely.  Typically, she wears a Victorian blouse over a corset and a knee length skirt that puffs out.  To ensure her movement isn't inhibited, she always wears tights and boots.  She also wears nice black gloves.

Traits

Inhuman Strength (Starting Fishman Trait)
Thanks to natural bulk or intense training regimes, you have physical might that far surpasses the human norm. You can lift boulders and other great weights that no normal man could hope to.

Bloodsucker (Starting Fishman Trait)
Due to your Fishman heritage, you are able to consume blood for sustenance. Your mouth is specialized with rows of serrated teeth to cut into prey.  Your saliva is an anti-coagulant, which means that the blood won't clot.

Inhuman Swiftness (Starting Custom Trait)
Intense training or natural agility makes you able to move more quickly than anyone else, though not at blinding speeds. You’re faster and a lot harder to hit while moving around. This does not apply underwater – see Supreme Swimmer for the aquatic counterpart.

Inhuman Toughness (Starting Custom Trait)
Your natural tolerance to pain, bulk or armour protects you from damage to an extent, allowing you to persevere through injuries that would cripple or incapacitate anyone else. Just remember, you’re not indestructible!

Background

Born on Platform Island in the South Blue, Elizah knew nothing but strife from her earliest days.  She and her sister Ophelia were abandoned by their parents on the lowest rung of Platform Island, known as The End.  They were the bastard children of a politician living on one of the higher platforms.  Ophelia was too young to remember his face, but Elizah could never forget the face of the man who left his own children to die.

Somehow, Elizah and Ophelia managed to survive the horrid conditions.  Elizah, being the older sister, had to do much of the more despicable acts to stay alive.  She killed, she stole, she cheated, she did whatever she had to do in order to make sure her and her sister would be alive to see another day.  Elizah and Ophelia often dreamed of a life beyond the smog filled sky where it would be blue and beautiful, and they didn't have to do terrible things just to survive.

One day, Elizah saw someone that she never expected to see in The End.  It her father.  The man who had left her all alone.  The one who had abandoned her.  With him was a young child.  Rage boiling up inside of her and tears stinging her eyes, Elizah charged him with her butcher knife.  As she looked into his eyes, she couldn't even see a hint of recognition.  Forgotten.  Elizah saw her reflection.  A blood stained girl filled with anger and hate.

Dropping the knife and stepping away, Elizah watched the child throw themselves over her father, sobbing.  It was then she knew.  She had to get off of this island.  Laughing, crying, giggling, screaming, she ran.  Ran back to the hole in the wall that she and her sister called home.  They left that night, stowing away on the first ship out of port.

On the run, Elizah defended and protected her sister, but the killing never stopped.  The only way to deal with it was to laugh.  Laugh until she cried and fell asleep in her sister's arms.  Eventually, they found their way into the arms of the Revolutionaries.  Ophelia could be kept safe while Elizah could create a safer world for her.  And she wouldn't stop killing until she had.

We've talked over a few things already, so I know you've made a couple tweaks already - but there's a few more small things I think might need some attention before we let Elizah loose!

First off, there's a small misunderstanding here - a Rank 2 piece of equipment does not give you 150 rebate XPz, it gives you 125. In the Armoury, the "250 X-Poinz / +150 X-Poinz" refers to "the cost of the piece of equipment / +the difference in price from the prior Rank" - in this case, a Rank 2 piece of equipment costs 150 XPz more than a Rank 1. A little further down is the guide on Rank:Rebate XPz, under the Weapon Techniques & Qualities heading.

The second thing is... I'd like to see a little more information on Elizah and her sister's life after leaving Platform Island. You mentioned they joined the Revolutionary Army - what was that like? How old was she when she joined up? Actually, giving some sort of time frame for the different parts of her life in general would be good, to give us an idea of when she got her revenge, how long she and her sister were on their own, that sort of thing.

Let me know when you've taken care of these things!
