Character

Personality

An urban Keeper brimming with the youthful liquor of potential. A soft & sweet initial disposition, beckoning and inviting in all natures, gives way to someone much more complex and perhaps a little darker once one delves deeper. She keeps her congregations tightly knit and on her own terms if she can help it. Often at times that proud mantle that is her life story is continually shaken by convolutions of her past or by others thus thrusting her out into the whorl of the world. She speaks and does as instructed by her mentor; Malric Delacoure. Her deliverance can give one the impression of someone wise beyond her years. She speaks with a slight dialect all her own (she spent nearly 4 years within the company of Seekers, also spends a lot of time around Elezen). She has a hard time with figures of speech, innuendos or other languages not her own (other than Ishgaurdian which she can read and speak a little of). She bears the burden of a family name that drives her story as much as it holds her back. Above all, she believes in self-progression and everything she does is done so in a way to advance her position. She keeps few close these days for fear of their safety. Those few she does keep close she is exceptionally passionate about. Enova by nature is selfish and a little brash at times, seeing only strength in others and finding little need for the rest or those who she sees as weak.

Aetherically, she suffers from a unique condition that renders her as a 'reservoir' of sorts, taking on -any- amount of aether and being able to expend it and potentially amplify in turn. Thus she is very much dependent on her emotional well being to keep her aether repressed at all times. Her condition is as much a gift as it is a curse, one that ended up being the death of her mother and likely will be the same for her - should her story delve down that path. Her personal story at this time is driven by the need to seek her own freedom, her own strengths, conquer weakness and to break away from the ideal that she's more than just a weapon; she's her own life, and one worth living at that..

Random quotes Enova's either said, or simply remind me of her character as a whole:

“Few understand freedom. One is born to a set of circumstances and then makes what is best from life given. Freedom isn't being without responsibility, nor having the open sky over your head. Is knowing that you have the ability to choose what is important to you - and learning to fight for it.”

"“Fear is a paralyzing emotion. You can't get anything done. People sort of think it's an intriguing, natural and reactive feeling — I don't think it's any of that. Is a helpless absence of control. If I am to survive in this world, I need all of my skills, all in my control, all of my powers ... and fear? Fear doesn't provide any of that — I have no use for it. My enemies however.. hmm, now there's a thought.""

"I find scars beyond beautiful. Wordless little reminders of what we've been through, suffered, survived and above all... moved on from. From them have emerged the strongest souls. I for one, choose not to die without any scars."

"“My heart tells me this is the best and greatest feeling I have ever had. But my mind knows the difference between wanting what you can’t have and wanting what you shouldn’t want. And I shouldn’t want you. ."

Strengths ■ Advanced aetherical potential (untapped) ■ Manipulating, Charming, Cunning ■ Diplomatic and well spoken ■ Pleasing in all initial interactions

Weaknesses ■ Self-serving and quick to cast judgment ■ Extremely vulnerable without her enchantments ■ Physically inept for rigorous combat ■ Young - she sees her inexperience as weakness

Motivations ■ Freedom - Above all things she desires most is the freedom to absolved from the invisible chains that bind her. ■ Personal Advancement - She in continually finding ways to better herself by whatever means necessary. ■ Power - At the core root of her, she secretly desires power over other. Whether it be through social standing, manipulation, her own aetherical strengths or other means. She loves to be in control.

Combat

General

As mentioned earlier, Aetherically, Enova suffers from a unique condition that renders her as a 'reservoir' of sorts, taking on -any- amount of aether and being able to expend it (and amplify) in turn. Her own aether pool is relatively normal by most standards but as a vessel she is able to take on immense amounts that would kill a man easily.. and then some more. At the time, it's assumed her intake is limitless. Thus she is very much dependent on her emotional well being to keep her aether repressed at all times. She is almost wearing some kind of aether-repressing enchantment in her attire – the purpose of the enchantment designed to keep her focused and stable. Without these enchantments she is somewhat unpredictable in nature, her emotions easily get the best of her and if pressed far enough, she can act without intent. ANY emotion that renders a large emotional response from her can be deadly, whether it be fear, anger, sadness... even pleasure, all put her and others at risk. There are only a very, very select few who know of her condition.

Her condition is the same as her mothers; Halo Sahn. It is believed her unique ability was used as a weapon of sorts, by whom still we are unclear. It's hinted she was filled with an immense amount of aether and basically detonated like a bomb but very little has been revealed. (because major spoilers!) Her mother's murder was confirmed to be per-meditated and it's assumed the one's responsible for her death are still around and relevant.

As far as combat goes.. she is unskilled and untrained in any physical form of combat thus she avoids it at all costs. Preferring others to do the fighting for her. It's not very often she is left alone and unprotected. She is schooled in basic restoration conjury, drawing on the life elements of the earth adding to her own ability to heal and mend wounds, restore energy and to fortify/enhance others or herself.

Weapons: (WIP) Enova is currently having a staff made IC but until that in game arc is complete I will leave this blank for now!

Relationships

♥ Romantic Interest    ♥ Sexual Desire    ♥ Platonic Love     ● Good Standing    ● Neutral Standing    ● Poor Standing

●● Malric Delacoure (NPC) - The infamous Elezen Mentor. The underlying motivator in all most everything the Sahn twins do. By title, he served alongside Enova's mother Halo Sahn, serving her and the Order of the Twin Adder since the Battle of Cartineau and beyond, ultimately until Halo's death. It's rumored that Halo and Malric were lovers and when she was killed, Malric either swore an oath to protect her daughter or chose to on his own accord - it's not yet been revealed. By alignment he is very much Lawful Evil and his unusual behavior and teaching methods in which he tended to Halo'a's sister Enova is apparent in almost every interaction between the two. Malric is easy to hate and harder to love, it's not yet clear whether he is the ally or the enemy. At the current time he has departed for Ishgaurd but will likely make his return in the near future.
