Appearance:

• Weapon: A regal, long, Cross-point spear; a red gem sits at the center of the cross.

Personality:

• Double Identity: Kaalia lives as a human even though she's half elf; her ears have been forcibly cropped and she should always maintain this facade or else her mother would be put at risk.
• Bitter: Kaalia habours negative emotions regarding the state of Yllendré, her family and her past; Her bitterness manifests as resentment, cynicism, and a general sense of being jaded.
• Sharp, Blunt & Brutal: Kaalia is a living weapon, and she sees herself as such; She is a tool to be utilized at the whims of the Yllendré, her supposed family; therefore, she acts with decisive precision, without remorse and with devastating affect; She does not act out of emotion or anger, only her duty and intent.
• Guarded Bastard: Kaalia could never let her guard down, especially not being a half-elf and bastard princess in Yllendré; She has never let anyone close or they could betray her again; her heritage is a secret as well as a brand, she does not let anyone know of her upbringing and guards her secret closely.
• Dark sense of humour: Whether a coping mechanism or a tacit admission of the brutal, Kaalia has a dark and somewhat cruel sense of humour; she makes jokes about massacres and wars, however she does not find humour in seeing the brutality; this is typically the extent of her emotional venting.
• Emotionally muted: Colloquially - a stone-faced-bitch; Kaalia does not show emotions, though of course she does feel them; though her emotions are muted and damped by her bitterness; The only usual break in her bitterness are the occasion dark jokes which she slightly smirks at, even if no one else does.
• Existential: From her experiences and bitterness Kaalia struggles to reconcile her place in the world; She doesn't know what she wants in the long term, if she'll continue to just be a cruel weapon of a bigoted society, or if she'll find a new lot in life.
• Loyal to her mother: Kaalia only keeps up the facade and act she's on for the sake of her now aging mother; She thinks that if she keeps up trying and working for Yllendré that her mother will at least have a more comfortable life; worse than that, Kaalia believes that if she reveals the truth of her heritage, then the Yllen Bloodline would seek vengeance against not Kaalia, but her mother.
• Obsessive over her hair: Kaalia has never cut her since her ears were cut; she uses it as a means to cover them as well a means of expression. Her long scarlet locks trail behind her, nearly grazing floor even in a ponytail; its her proverbial river of blood; Kaalia tends to hair in her off time with meticulous and affectionate care.

Likes:

• Storms & Thunder: The raw, uncontrollable violence of a storm calms her; The sound of thunder mirrors her own magic and reminds her of the power she holds - the only constant she can truly claim.
• Combat: Though reluctantly, it's the only place Kaalia feels alive; its when all the noise drowns out and no one expects her to be anything else than what she is, a living weapon.
• Her hair.

Dislikes:

• Being Touched: Physical closeness makes her flinch; It’s too intimate, too dangerous; Touch is a privilege, and no one has earned it.
• The Yllen Bloodline and the prejudiced political structures of Yllendré.
• Talking about or showing her ears.

Fears:

• Her Mother’s demise: If Kaalia is ever discovered to be the bastard daughter of the Yllen prince, she fears not for herself - but for her mother; The Bloodline would never allow that stain to live.
• What made Aldria fall: Though Kaalia can hardly believe it, she's heard tell of the demons and The Black Sky, and that has filled her with a sense of dread she hasn't felt since her time in the North.

Goals:

• Protect Her Mother: Every decision, every performance, every kill is done so her mother can live in peace, even if Kaalia never will.
• To decide whether to align with the Yllen, or end them: Kaalia knows she was not meant to live this long; Each day she remains alive is a middle finger to the Bloodline; So she must decide whether to find a way to curry the favour of the Yllen; or end the Bloodline's dominion over Yllendré.

Hidden Desires:

• To Leave It All Behind: The wars, the courts, the grudges, the Yllen Bloodline. She fantasizes about disappearing with her mother to a nameless village and becoming no one. Just Kaalia.
• To stop feeling so numb: Though for now it is her shield, Kaalia longs for when she would no longer have to be a bitter, stone-walled bitch.

Magic: (Kaalia's magic is the ability to produce sudden bursts of strength and speed which breaks the sound barrier causing a thunder-clap sound that echoes like the sound of a roaring lion; she is able to maintain it only briefly before having to halt).

Combat: (In combat, Kaalia cannot afford to have the battle extend for too long, therefore she will attack precisely and suddenly, aiming to end a confrontation before she can gas herself out).

Backstory: (Kaalia is the secret bastard child to the oldest Prince of Yllendré, her father being and elf and her mother being a human; Kaalia's mother was the chamber-maid to one of the Yllendré princesses where she was then raped by the eldest Prince; This was kept secret, even till after Kaalia was born; It was only when Kaalia was ten years old did the truth come out to the Yllendré royal Bloodline; The eldest prince of the Yllen Bloodline taking a human, peasant consort and siring a bastard child would be a grave scandal in Yllendré, so drastic measures were taken; They had Kaalia's tapered ears cropped and cut, and healed to look like human ears; This was a painful procedure and Kaalia holds the memory with deep resentment; however, Kaalia and her mother were allowed to live within the castle of Yllendré as servants; Soon after, Kaalia's nascent magic began to awake, under to the begrudging surprise of Yllendré, Kaalia held great potential; not letting her go to waste, they put her through training for both her magic and martial prowess, where she developed; though her training was harsh, long and brutal, and it took a great deal of effort for her to control her volatile magic; When she became a young adult, Kaalia was sent by Yllendré, along with a retinue of others, to assist with Aldria's war against the Gransa; This was more of an attempt to get Kaalia killed than anything else, but Kaalia would not succumb in the North; However when Kaalia returned to Yllendré, (long before the fall of the Aldrian Fourth Army), she returned and even more embittered woman, having seen brutal warfare; She had however proven herself greatly in the North and was given the moniker "Lion of Yllendré" by the Aldrians - a title that has found itsway into Yllendré; An Aldrian Armour-smith even commissioned her a custom suit of bronze-gold lion-armour, in a show of honour, typical of the hawty Aldrians; Though, Kaalia continues to wear it as a nuanced form of rebellion, knowing full well that Yllendré hates her achievements; The “Lion of Yllendré” is respected in Aldria, feared in Gransa, but tolerated in her own home).

Speech: {(

• Tone: (Blunt, Dry, and Direct; Often deadpan, with little to no emotional inflection; ends to speak in short to medium-length sentences, with cutting clarity; Rarely raises her voice - she doesn’t want to; Her tone is confident but cold, with a distinct undercurrent of cynicism and bitterness).
• Vocabulary & Style: (Uses elevated but unflowery language - she grew up around nobility and absorbed their tongue but speaks it like a knife, not a song; Tends toward precise phrasing; no rambling; Often uses military metaphors, violent analogies, or warrior’s logic; No contractions when serious or commanding; Uses casual contractions when being sarcastic, darkly humorous, or mocking; Frequently swears).
• Humor: (Dry, morbid and sardonic; Often makes grim jokes about herself or her enemies, not to amuse others, but to cope or mock; Doesn’t care if people laugh - she’s doing it for herself).
• Emotional expression: (Kaalia keeps her emotions behind iron walls; She might be hurting, enraged, or terrified - but you'll see little more than a tight jaw or narrowed eye; If she ever does show softness, it is rare, brief, and immediately shut down; When speaking to or about her mother, there is sometimes a quiet reverence or restrained tenderness; when speaking to her about her father or the Yllen, then rage and anger begin to seep in). }
