Aiko Killian Basic Information Race: Human Birthday: Spring 10, 493 AV Age: 18 years old, nosy! Gender: Female Height: 5 feet even Weight: 98 lbs. Like you really needed to know that? Appearance & Concept This young woman is a peculiar blend: while she looks very sensual and alluring, her personality is quirky and whimsical. If you look at her, you see a beautiful woman with long silky hair, ebony bedroom eyes and full pouty lips. When you talk to her, that impression flies out the window as she speaks like a whimsical dreamer who's constantly distracted in everything except art. Art is the only topic this young woman focuses on intensely. Aiko is a woman of incredible beauty, striking features, caramel skin and amazingly dark eyes. Her hair is long and silky with layers of deepest chocolate to pure ebony. Although her long gorgeous hair is her one vanity, she almost never bothers to care in the slightest about her appearance. You'll usually find smudges of paint or ink on her face and hands. Her eyes are sharp and she stares at people, not caring if it's rude. In fact, it's flattering--you might be her next portrait or inspiration! Aiko likes drawing, painting and calligraphy, with a deep appreciation of all things artistic and elegant. She has an eye for beautiful things, but is not blind enough to pursue a materialistic life. She is blind, however to things like eating and sleeping when she's drawing, painting or practicing her calligraphy. When asked a rude or inordinate question, she'll be snarky right back. Aiko isn't rude per se, but she is outspoken. Aiko’s name is exceptional in that it ends with a masculine "O" instead of the traditional "A" or "I" that is more common in her gender. Aiko's father wanted his daughter to have a unique and strong sounding name, with total disregard of the naming customs.

History Aiko was born of Zist and Shani Killian of the Aisha class in Lhavit, within the western Kalea region. Aiko grew up as an only child and quickly became a daddy's girl. Her father is a prominent calligrapher and he and his wife fully encourage Aiko's creativity. Her mother is a very serious and scholarly woman who's pursuit of knowledge is single minded to the exclusion of all else, and Aiko follows that trait in her art. Aiko grew up as an observer; of people, life, nature and all that these encompass. She has never had a hard life, physically, nor wanted for food or shelter. Her parents raised her to give her best in her work and do well at whatever she sets her mind to. Her upbringing has produced the strong, sassy, confident woman before you. Aiko Killian continues her avid studies of art at Tain's Studio and is always, intensely looking at those around her.

General Information : My name is Aiko Killian Killian is my nickname. How old am I? Look at the top, and don't make me tell you again. I am exactly five feet even. What is your weight? Again, see above. Aesthetics : I see myself as artistic, strong and quirky with dark hair and eyes. Others typically see me as either eccentric, crazy or snarky. My favorite body features are my hands--they help me paint! I'm fit from riding; it's fun and gets me out of doors. I prefer to dress in whatever is handy. I don't care. I like browns though. Family : My parents are Zist and Shani Killian. My father makes fantastic calligraphy and my mother is a scholar. I have no brothers or sisters. No extended family that I know of. Close friends should be treated as important as family. I treat animals with the equal respect that all life deserves. Location : I was born and currently live in the western Kalea region of Lhavit. I know of no place outside of my home. My leisure time? Uh spent people watching. Where do I fear to be? No idea--haven't traveled anywhere. Traits : do you have any physical weaknesses? does coffee count? I am right handed. I speak Lhavitian fluently and Common rather well. My voice sounds unusually husky for a woman. Do you have an accent? I dunno, do you? My mannerisms? Um I eat the ends of my pencils and brushes and constantly get them stuck in my hair. I stare at people a lot. Some get really offended. Navel piercing-don't tell my father! No tattoos yet--I'm still designing it. Occupations : I'm an avid artist. I like my work because it allows me to create beauty, make something of nothing and then I get paid for it! If you could be anything you wanted to, what would you be? I'm exactly what and who I want to be. I admire my parents most because they pursue their dreams and use their skills to their full potential. I supposed anything that's not creative is something I would least like. ~Questions to be answered~ Childhood : 1. What sort of child were you? 2. What is your favorite memory from childhood? 3.
