Maya Frostfawn


Appearance

Race: Nuit
Gender: Female
Age: 53
Birthplace: Avanthal, (as a human, Vantha), Sahova as a Nuit
Birthday: Summer 3, 470 AV
Height: 5'7"
Body Type: Lean

Appearance:

Maya stands at roughly 5'9 and has an extremely slender frame; she appears emaciated. She is currently inhabiting the body of a former mother, who looks to be in her late thirties, or perhaps her early forties. She has short blonde hair that falls nearly to her shoulders, it is mainly straight, but there is a gentle wave at its heart. Her eyes are a grey-green, pale in nature, ringed with purple as though she has not slept in quite some time. Her body's skin is pale and dry, her lips, their slender pink mirror.

Character Concept

In life, Maya had been exuberant, a being abounding with energy and a bubbly and friendly personality. In her life between worlds, everything has changed and she finds it hard to recall, especially now, having spent so long within her mortal coil, what emotions really feel like. While she is not incapable of feeling emotion, everything has dulled with each passing moment, and she finds that she feels detached from everything--the others she encounters, the things she once loved, and especially her feelings. While many of her kind seek to acquire magic, power, and new skills, she seeks to acquire the answers to a very specific set of questions--specifically, what about the process of becoming a Nuit, changing one's physical composition, causes them to become so detached. For their personalities and interests to change, what she feels is so sharply, between life and unlife.

Character History

Life had been different before. She had been different before. Exuberant, lost in a world filled with numerous sensations whose memory was starting to fade alongside everything else.

_____

She was born in 470 AV to Tara & Tenvil Frostfawn. Maya was both born and raised in the cold, molded by it even. She grew up without siblings, but close ties to her parents as well as the other members of her hold in particular. And as she grew, she was taught to tend to animals and to hunt, although she never took to it, she still loved the creatures she was introduced to, especially the feel of their fur. She loved all soft and fluffy things, and had a soft spot in her heart for anything cute and cuddly. She loved playing with the other children, and loved her winter Queen, which gave all of her people her gift, if only they bothered to ask for it. At 16, she was married to Tovar Frostfawn, and they had a short and happy marriage but no children--he died tragically in a terrible hunting accident roughly two years into their marriage. Maya never wished to remarry, and thankfully, she was never forced to.
_____

In 499 AV, a fire claimed the stables and many animals were killed. Although she was not at fault, many suspected her and she could not live with the shame. Although it was a hard decision, Maya chose to leave Avanthal behind and see if she could begin life anew, elsewhere.
____

The world became a place to wander, sometimes alone, sometimes with others she encountered in her travels. Until one day in the early summer of 500 AV when she was captured by slavers and shipped off to Sahova for goodness knows what.

A pulser, a subject, an impending vessel of Sahova. A tortured soul turned from prey to predator, a human into what many would consider a monster for reasons that still elude her.

That was in 501 AV. And for many years after that, Maya knew little more than four walls, the scent of ink and old books. The scratching of a quill on parchment. Darkness illuminated by flickering candlelight. Solitude, punctuated by the occasional unwanted guest. And an endless list of questions, impossible to remember in its entirety as her research continued to pull her in one opposing direction after another.

Until now… when she decided that she needed a change.

Diary of a Body Snatcher:

523 AV:

Summer 1-30: Maya wore the body of a woman who stood at roughly five feet and seven inches tall and had a slender frame. It was the body of a rather masculine-looking adolescent female, who looked to be no older than 18. Her body had roughly-cropped sandy-brown hair and green eyes, ringed with purple. Her body's skin was pale and dry, and the back of her hands were littered in freckles.
Summer 31-Fall 41: Maya humbly requests that you don't speak of the bodies she snatched; it was a dark time in the life of the nuit.
Fall 41-Fall 71: Maya adopted the body of a mother, a woman who might have been in her late thirties or early forties. She had short blonde hair that fell nearly to her shoulders; it was mainly straight, but had a gentle wave to it. Her eyes were a pale grey-green, her skin pale, her nose long and pointed, her lips a pale pink. She's underweight and taller than most of Maya's previous forms, coming in at 5'9.
