Music :

-Representing Ssanya's physical attractions and most primal and essentially need-driven emotions. Her desire for women, her love of wine, of dark evenings filled with the incense of blooming desert flowers, and heady spices of passion and power. Of elegant conversation and decadence, which she enjoys as much as the next person. Representing her curiosity with the feeling of being out of control. Perhaps representing the possibility for Ssanya's darker side, as yet unexplored.-

-Ssanya's desert past speaks through this music, her deep-seated and unwavering connection to the rolling sands and the fierce heat of her homeland. The feelings of sorrow she cannot help but associate with the desert, feelings of pain and sadness as she thinks of her mother. But also of happiness and joy, and of being completely immersed in the empty beauty of endless sands. This represents her homesickness and her deep nostalgia for that connection to the land of her birth.

Human appearance:

As a human, Ssanya stands at a height of 4 ft 5 in. She has warm, light brown skin and long dark hair that she usually leaves lying long and wild around her shoulders and down her back. Her face is somewhat average, with an often indifferent expression on her features. She has brown eyes that gleam when she smiles. She is slim. Most of the time, she is dressed in lightweight, neutral colours, although during Autumn and Winter she will always wear a scarf to stave off the cold. In addition, her mother's bone talisman always hangs from a cord around her neck, hidden by clothes or her scarf. A tiny, tooth-mark scar mars the flesh of her neck, delivered by Allister, in Summer 517. Along her side is a scar, left there by a monster unknown near to Ravok in Summer 518.

Dhani appearance:

As a dhani she is small for her species, at only 10 ft. She is larger than the males in her family, but only by a little. She is patterned all over with light browns and beiges, with a cream underbelly. Over her eyes are peculiar eye ridges that provide shelter from bright light. As she is a rattler, she has a rattle on the tip of her tail, which is dark, almost black. In this form, she is roughly 1.5x stronger than a regular, untrained human, and is very quick and agile with her movements.

Snake appearance:

As a snake, Ssanya is 6ft long. She is patterned in the same way as her dhani form, brown and cream in a speckled pattern over her scales. Her eye ridges are also quite prominent. In this form, she moves in a peculiar fashion, sideways rather than forwards, more at home in the warm sands of her home than the colder climates in the north.

Behaviour and diet:

During Autumn and Winter, Ssanya feels the cold keenly, and will need to sleep or be inactive at night to conserve energy and heat, whilst moving and being active during the day. In hotter climates, she more often chooses to sleep during the day and only come out at night. Ever since moving away from Ekytol, Ssanya doesn't really need to follow these patterns, out of habit she prefers night to day for this reason.

As a dhani and snake, Ssanya's diet mostly consists of rodents, and sometimes larger animals such as rabbits, but rarely anything bigger due to her size.

Click me :

I have slightly adjusted the average rattler dhani heights/lengths to reflect her sidewinder species differences, mostly to make her smaller than an average rattler dhani. Obviously, this means that she is slightly bigger than listed for a real-life sidewinder. Her size differences are due to the fact that her family has lived in the Ekytol nest for many generations, and their size difference (compared to other rattlers) allows them to fit in better amongst the predominantly viper Dhani in the Ekytol nest.

A small note on venom:

Ssanya has small venom glands which produce venom less strong than other rattler species. However, bites from Ssanya can cause: swelling, pain, dizziness, chills, shock, and can cause you to bleed without clotting. She could probably kill a human through venom alone, unless the affected were treated. Luckily for you, Ssanya doesn't bite- much!

*Edited as of: 17/11/2016, to show more accurate rattler Dhani sizes.

Appearance

Character Concept

The cycle of death...

Chassanya is a dhani driven by a curiosity gained when she was a youngling. Curiosity surrounding death. From a young age, Ssanya was very aware of the presence of death: She came for her two aunts as they were out hunting, She took a brother away before he'd even lived. Ssanya was even a bringer of death when she hunted. It fascinated her that as soon as someone or something died, its life and its soul were gone. A simple thought, really, but one that captivated the young snake.

Living through remains...

Her morbid fascination with death tied neatly with malediction - the magic she learnt from her mother. Although Chassanya wasn't terribly important to the family, being a middle child who showed little interest in leadership, her relationship with her mother was strong. Through her, she learnt malediction- her mother's first love. Through the magic, a death brings meaning to the world, even after they are gone. In a sense, they are living through their remains, a thought that Ssanya found deeply fulfilling and endlessly fascinating. After her mother's death especially, the girl turned to malediction to remember her mother and understand death. Malediction, in a sense, is the lens through which Ssanya views the world.

The drive to survive...

It was after her mother's death that Chassanya realised that her heart didn't belong to life in the nest. She loved her family, but she also knew that she had the wanderlust in her. She wanted to know more about her mother's magic, to discover what she could of the world, just as her mother had done before her. Despite this desire, she is not one to plunge head first and foolhardily into danger. Having grown up in the desert, she is well aware that Mizahar's pockets of civilisation are pebbles in a pool of danger.

Heirloom:

Chassanya's heirloom is a deeply personal one- her mother's left hand index finger knuckle, carefully connected to a loop of leather cord tied around her neck at all times. Although it is not maledicted, the bone means a great deal to Chassanya. From it, she draws inspiration. After all, the dhani it belonged to was her greatest idol, her mentor, her teacher, and most of all her beloved mother. The bone itself is aged and stained with time, and the cord it is tied to is darkened with age and frayed on one end.
+Ssanya has since maledicted a rib and attached it to her necklace, so that the knuckle bone and the rib lie side by side. The Dhani has not fully tested the rib, and hasn't felt any great effect from wearing it. Instead, she finds a comfort knowing it lies against her skin and believes it to protect her from harm, though in reality there is little to no real effect to her person.

413 - 438 AV :

3rd Fall 413 BORN - 3rd Fall 438 AV Youngling (25 yrs old) learns dhani form

Ssanya was born in the hot desert sands of Ekytol, with two sisters and a brother. Although she never knew much about it, she would have had two other sisters, but they were stillborn, much to the family's grief. Even so, Ssanya had a good childhood. She and her closest siblings joined the already large group of brothers and sisters in her mother's nest, and lived together not altogether peacefully, but happily nonetheless. On 90th Spring, 419 AV, Ssanya's mother Tchachallasana gave birth to another clutch. Whilst her older siblings soon learnt how to shift into their dhani forms, Ssanya waited patiently along with her clutch and her younger siblings until the day she too could form into her dhani shape...

Shortly after her 25th birthday, Ssanya finally learnt her dhani form. For the coming years, she started learning more, too - lessons with her mother and father Ssonoren in the nest. She learnt about their goddesses, about Siku and Caiyha. She learnt how to hunt, how to survive in the fierce desert sands. Yet most of all, she started learning what would become the most important thing in her life: malediction. Those lessons came from her mother, when she could spare the time to teach one of her daughters. Yet, Tchachallassana found Chassanya a receptive and eager learner, and soon the two were deep in lessons.

3rd Fall 463 AV Young adult (50 yrs old) - Spring 40th 508 AV

As Ssanya grew into a young adult, her love and fascination with death and malediction only increased. As her mother grew older, she was spending more and more time with her other siblings, and malediction lessons decreased. Yet, the snake practised wherever she could, with the bones of animals killed for food, with scorched skeletons found in the desert. However, it soon became apparent that there was something wrong with her mentor and mother. Her scales started to become brittle, her movements slow and painful. On the 40th Spring, 508 AV, Tchachallassana transformed into her human form for the last time.

Fall 1st 511 AV - Mother dies

For three years, Tchallassana lived a good life. Yet living became more and more difficult, until the turn of the season from Summer to Fall, 511 AV. That was the day Ssanya lost her mother to death. The whole family mourned, for she had been a good woman, a proud and clever leader of their nest. But life had to go on. Ssanya mourned in her own way, quiet, lonely, deep and long.

Fall 511 - Fall 513 AV

Life went on. The only thing that her mother left her in death was the left knuckle bone of her mother's index finger, yet to her it was a priceless treasure. By this time, Ssanya had developed her own connection to bones, and the life they held even after death. Her mother's bone was her anchor, her guide, her consolation. In the years ahead, Ssanya continued her education, and spent a lot of time in Ahnatep, learning of the outside world. Her mother's death had left the nest feeling empty, somehow. And besides, she wanted to learn more about her mother's magic. She began making preparations to leave. Her family stopped her though, her father telling her to wait, just a little.

Fall 11th 513 - learns human form

It was a wise decision. A few days after her 100th birthday, Ssanya learnt her human form. From then on out she began her preparations to leave the nest...

Chassanya is fond of her family, most especially of her brother and two sisters in the Ssa clutch. Her father was a good man who she was very proud of, and everyone was respectful of Tchashallassana. She does miss her family sometimes when she is away, and one day wishes to return.

Tshashallasana
On Malediction

This magic practice was a hobby and an obsession for the Dhani mother. In her younger years, she was introduced to the magic by an acquaintance she met through travel. Gradually as she progressed through life and settled down to breed her nest, she started to hone her skills. The magic was a way to defend her family by making totems and talismans from bones. Sometimes they worked, sometimes they didn't. Because she feared the stronger effects of the magic, she refused to use more volatile materials and so in effect the magic simply became a hobby as opposed to the obsession she had fostered in her youth. She taught Ssanya the magic when the young snakeling showed an interest, and although she didn't have the time to teach as in depth as she would have liked, she grew fond of her middle daughter. Her style was rich and elaborate, mainly hinging on designs of the landscape around her, such as undulating sands that she wove into representations of the animals that lived in such an environment.

Madeira Craven
	A pale, blonde Spiritist with a surprisingly strong core despite her wispy appearance	The Darkest Corners, Where Crowns Rest, Festival of Illusion, Don't Panic, Warmth and Wine, We're Going on an Adventure	Ssanya views Maddy in high regard. Her equal interest in death and what lies beyond gives the two a close bond, and their shared exploits in a somewhat warily regarded magic give Ssanya a feeling of companionship which has since deepened into desire and something not yet named as love. She sees the woman as a treasured friend, lover, and adventurer through life. Madeira is someone Ssanya has shared the best part of her stay in Alvadas with, through thick and thin she has found herself relying on her strange and beautiful friend and as such she thinks very highly of her.
Allister/Useless
	A sickly looking Kelvic with unusual tattoos and a strange, grinning manner	Liquid Laughter, We're Going on an Adventure	Allister is almost impossible to figure out, but Ssanya believes she likes him. The man is strange and makes her uncomfortable sometimes, but in a way that also excites her. Though she has yet to develop a bigger relationship with the man, his link to Madeira is enough to make her hackles rise, even if it is internally. At the end of the day, Allister is a fascinating man that Ssanya desires to understand deeper, though she fears he might draw her into his madness.

Asterope
	A startlingly beautiful Ethaefal, possessing dark brows and an almond-shaped face.	An Uncontrolled Urge, Getting Your Hands Dirty	Ever since the time Ssanya's mind and body was overtaken by a parasite, she has been ashamed of her conduct towards the beautiful Ethaefal. Though the two have met since in a different time and a different place, Ssanya still does not know how to approach the subject and she fears the old madness will overcome her as it did back then. As such, though she doesn't expect to see her again, Ssanya wonders what would happen if they were to meet...
