Avon

[Avon]

Avon Appearance Race: Human Gender: Female Age: 17 Birthday: 20, Summer, 498. Birthplace: Zelvita Appearance: Avon is around five foot ten inches, and weighs about 130 pounds. She is quite skinny for her height, with arms that are almost all skin and bone. Sh usually wears a simple cloak over a tunic with the left side sleeveless, and the right side long sleeved. Her right hand is covered by a glove, and is covered in scars from an experiment gone wrong in reimancy. Her left hand has a stylized star, where res was put into her body from. A similar scar is also on her other hand, but it is interrupted and deformed by the crisscross scars that are all over her hand. Her hair is long and white, usually pulled back into a long braid behind her head, and her eyes are a beautiful, rare, icy blue. Character Concept Avon is an extremely shy young woman, who prefers to spend most of her time with a couple of close friends, or just by herself. She is an okay teacher, with skills in Reimancy, both gotten from her parents. She likes to help people out, but dislikes being the center of attention. If she helps someone out with something, it's because she feels like it, not because she wants any sort of recognition. She does have her own style of dressing that causes her to be more noticeable, but she refuses to change how she looks just to fit in, even though she is quite shy. She enjoys teaching, especially about reimancy and the history of Zelvita, a passion that she got from her parents who were both teachers at the academy. Her father taught history, and her mother taught reimancy. Avon gets angry easily when not teaching, and tends to mistrust people immediately upon meeting them. She doesn't tolerate anyone who breaks the law without good reason. She wont hesitate to do whatever needs to be done. Character History Avon was born in Zelvita in 498. Her parents were both experts in reimancy, and taught at the University there. Her father, although an expert with reimancy, taught Zelvitan history, while her mother taught reimancy. They were a hapy family, and she picked up much of her knowledge about Zelvita from her father. Sometimes she would go to the university with her father, but almost never with her mother, as her mother didn't want her around in case something went wrong in her classroom. Reimancy can be extremely dangerous, and she didn't want Avon to get hurt. Avon always wanted to use reimancy though, and from the age where she could understand what it was, she wanted to be able to use it. She begged her parents all the time to give her this awesome power. Finally, on her twelth birthday her father relented, and when her mother went out to the university, he cut a star shape in each of her palms and sent res inside her through these, as his own teacher had done many years earlier. It was extremely painful, but she got through it. Her mother was extremely angry at her husband for putting their daughter in such danger, but calmed down pretty quickly, telling herself that there was no need to worry about what-ifs. She was still upset at her husband, but more upset at him that he would put his own daughter in such danger. For the next couple of years, her mother reluctantly taught her to control this magic, to the point where she had control over the elements water and air, allowing her to create ice. She continued to grow and learn, growing closer to her parents. One day the magical part of the university exploded, and both her parents were killed, her father having been visiting her mom to discuss something. Avon was traumatized, living almost in a daze for a couple of months before recovering, still very sad about her parents death. She moved out of their house because it reminded her too much of them, and into a small cottage, bringing her staff and her mothers pendant with her. She plans to start teaching reimancy in order to earn some mizas, and possibly do a bit of mercenary work.
