Nickname(s): Aeryn; Raven

Age: 18

Birthdate: Sept. 02

Gender: Female

Species: Echidnoyle

Physical Description: Aeryn-Na is 5'6", shorter than most. Many believe her to be a weakling because of her small form. She is not very muscular because of her lack of training, but she is agile. Her coloring is a deep purple, almost black, with white V-symbols on her forearms, wrists, and one large one on her back. Her wings are a lighter purple on the undersides and have no markings. Her dreads have two white V-marks on the tips and are a little longer than shoulder length. Her hair is black and is restricted to bangs that cover her left eye. Her eyes are blue, with the iris being a deep indigo blue and the outer area light sapphire. She normally wears an off-white (and sometimes solid black) lace-up, corset style backless dress.

Family members: None

Background: Aeryn was once an Overlander. Alone and on the streets, at sixteen she became a thief as a means to earn money to survive. As a petty pickpocket, she excelled. However, as she became older she wanted something that would challenge her methodical, tick-tock mind. She became a Bounty Hunter of sorts, willing to steal anything from anyone for a price. She would even go as far as to murder for her employers, as long as the price was right. One night, she was sent to Echinopolis to collect a bounty. She wasn't sure why she was after this particular Echidna. The female didn't seem to be anyone important. It was a female named Lara-Le. Aeryn began to feel that her employers just picked a name from a directory to cause trouble with recent peace-talks between Overlander ambassadors and Echidna officials. Whatever the reason, she set out, ready to spill blood. She was captured by Constable Remington and the current Guardian before she was even close to the building. As punishment for her crime, which was never actually committed, she was sentenced to death for trying to instigate yet another war. However, the sentence was waived and another punishment took its place: genetic experimentation. Aeryn was volunteered by her captors to play a part in the genetic alteration experiments to create the creatures that became known as the Echinolyes. Aeryn underwent a painful transformation and was presumed dead. The scientists dumped her body out in the wilderness, convinced she was the product of a mishap. When Aeryn awoke in the wilds of the Floating Island, her memories seemed to drift from her mind. Some were still intact, but hazy. She couldn't even remember her name. The only clue she had to her identity was a tag on a chain around her neck that was imnscribed with the name Aeryn-Na. She fled deeper into the wilderness, hoping to have some time alone to cope with her change...

Likes: Aeryn is a very artistic creature and loves to sketch whenever possible. Her time as a thief prevented much practice, but she refuses to think that she has gotten any worse. She also likes to sing. A loner at heart, she enjoys time alone and refuses to join a Clan at this moment in time.

Dislikes: She dislikes loud sounds and has an instictive aversion to crowds. Hipocrisy, racism, and bigotry are among her dislikes as well.

Strong points: Her small form makes her extremely agile in the air, but her wings can interfere with this on the ground. She is a strategist and a deep thinker, but she is not very good when it comes to acting on her strategies.

Weak points: She is very shy and introverted around most creatures and has a natural paranoia and distrust of others that cannot be swayed easily. She acts on impulse rather than on her well-laid-out plans. She also tends to panic in intense situations (something she rarely experienced as a thief). Her physical strength is much less than the other Echinolyes she has come across.

Personality: Aeryn-Na's transformation has made her quite self-consious and nervous. Generally, she is quiet and friendly, but cross ehr and she can become a methodical killing machine. She is a very deep individual and sees in shades of grey, instead of stark black and white.

Special ability: She has a bit of an instinctive sense of premonition and can vaguely sense when danger is going to occur nearby. She can strengthen this sort of "sixth sense" through intense meditation that cannot be disturbed (not a valuable asset in a battle).

Clan: Undecided at this time
