Karitianyssa

physical traits : Race: Viper Dhani gender: female age: 133 years old birthday: 40th,summer, 380 AV Birth place: Ahnatep Current location: Riverfall Height: 4'11'' Appearance : In the snake form,her underbelly scales are white, making a nice contrast with the rest of her scales, which are black.She is, from the head to the tip of her tail, 8 feet long, with intimidating fangs on her mouth, always trying to intimidate the others, after all, in this form she isn't as powerful as she would like to be. In her Dhani form, her scales are slightly lighter, being pitch black, just like her snake form.Her length, from head to the tip of the tail, is 10'5'' long. Her Human form is rather skinny, and thin as well, having some burn marks on her chest area, because of a failed philtering experiment, always reminding her to try her best, and never fail again.She has a tomboyish build, barely having any curves at all on her body, though she couldn't care less about such things.After all, in her words, she has 'no blobs of fat' hanging from her body. Personality : More often than not, she tries to fake out her personality,Only showing the true traces of it when she loses her cool, or feels an emotion too strongly.If it is in her job, she tries to be cold and precise, in an attempt to look professional.If it is out of the work, on the streets,and even around some of her friends, she attempts to look cute,to take advantage of her small form...but in private, she is quite different from both of her 'outer skins'. She is someone obsessed with knowledge, always wanting to learn more about the world, and more about others.Because of such kink, it is hard to learn if she hates you or not. If she loves someone, she will try to learn about them,and even becomes a stalker, depending of how great her crush is.If she hates someone, she does pretty much the same thing, but instead of being just curiosity, she gathers knowledge to gain an upper hand on future battles, or even manipulate her enemy. Her biggest goals is simply knowing everything about the world.To both help her race, and torture those who oppose the Dhani's race...but she never tells it to a fellow Dhani, much less to a stranger. Background : The start of her life, was pretty much the same as many Dhani.Letting instincts take over,and according to Nyssa, she wasn't even conscious of what she was truly doing at that age.For Nyssa, her life only truly started when she first shapeshifted into her Dhani form. Ever since she was young, she worshipped Siku...but yet, she felt like her body wasn't enough to survive.Just physical fighting, and relying on her own venom...it simply wasn't enough for her.The reasons of why she felt like that are unknown, but probably because she was jealous of other vipers, who grew stronger, and faster than her. But her life changed when she met a merchant.Someone who specialized in philtering.Almost in the same moment she learned of the word, she began to show interest in it, and in the same chime, asked to be accepted as an apprentice.She knew it might be a bad choice but...she still wanted to be a philterer.After all, they did amazing things, and she wanted to learn of it, to be amazing for her race as well.Sadly, the merchant was a travelling one, always looking for new ingredients, and new customers. It was sad, but yet,the Dhani decided to follow the merchant to the northern lands.On her way to riverfall, she was taught a little about herbs, and learned even more about philtering...but one day on riverfall, something happened.She tried to learn a recipe, by her own, instead of relying on the knowledge of the merchant, she wanted to learn by herself, just once. She couldn't take anymore the fact he never let her do any philtering on her own...but she soon learned the reason.She was working with volatile ingredients, and he never told her about the temperature she needed to heat to get the desired result.As she was lost in her thoughts, wondering how much she should heat it up, it ended up exploding, into a fire, damaging both her chest,and a good amount of the equipment.The merchant, startled by the noise, kicked her out to fend for herself in riverfall, not wanting to get killed because of an experiment.
