∴ "((WIP - working on Altering this page))" Illith Lith Player: Illithlith Information Name: Illith Lith Pronunciation: [il-lith Lith] Nickname & Aliases: Far be it for others to coin a moniker; but Lith and the far more dreaded "Illi" have been said more than once in the past. Gender: ♀ Female Race: Lalafell- Dunesfolk Date of Birth/Nameday: 31st Sun of the 5th Umbral Moon Age: Unknown. Not in the habit of sharing it, either. Height: 3’2.2” Weight: Looks to be between maybe 100-110 ponz Eye Color: Crimson Hair Color: Black Marital Status: Involved Base of Operations: Ul'dah Grand Company: Immortal Flames Freecompany: Arcanum Guardian: Rhalgr, the Destroyer Job: Black Mage ∗Appearance∗ Illith Lith is fairly tall for a Lalafell, standing well above the average height one might find of one who originates from Thanalan. She carries herself with a studious air; her expression sharp and normally unemotive in public. An ornate tattoo traverses her countenance over her brows and eyes adding to her already stern features. In dim light her glossy red eyes shine with an almost ethereal sheen; the crimson glow giving her a phantom like appearance in the right setting. Her hair is long and jet black in color; bangs trailing either side of her face whilst the center is clasped with a silver ornament in the back to keep it in check. Both ears are pierced with small bangles, another pair situated close by of various design dependent on her tastes. The tips of her ears are also pierced with small black obsidian studs - the right one also having a small crescent like earring that appears to be made of bone or ivory of some kind. She is usually dressed in robes of one well versed in the Thaumaturgical magick arts, especially those of her appointed study, Black Mage. Sometimes she may be seen in attire suited for an Archer or Bard, but this does not last long on any given front. Dark colors seem to be her favored sort; even her Disciples of the Land and Hand professions following suit. • ∗Personality∗ Illith is an interesting individual as far as her personality is concerned. She tends to have a rather serious demeanor; though at the same time she can be fairly laid back and to the extreme, jovial. The latter is normally when in the presence of friends and cohorts that she trusts and is in good repoire. She is courteous to most strangers despite her mannerisms leading one to perceive she is of the stand offish sort. As far as her more malicious demeanor goes - a rare sight and only brought upon by extreme stress - she is volatile and relentless. Wielding her dark magick in this state is a force to be reckoned with...once upon a time it cost her something very close. What that something was or is, is another story. • ∗History∗ ((TO BE ALTERED)) Illith Lith's upbringing was far from modest. In her youth, she lived in a fairly upstanding and affluent household in Ul'dah; her father being one of high repute in the Thaumaturge's guild. She studied heavily in the Thaumaturgical arts at his duress; both she and her brother becoming very well versed at a very young age. Eventually, as most children do, she became bored with her usual studies and would read from books she wasn't so privy too. It was on one of these occasions she came across a myriad of tomes hidden away in a 'safe room' of sorts in her father's study...it becoming apparent that he had been housing ledgers dealing with Black Mages. This is where her abilities altered as she began to learn on her own of wielding such power. Thankfully, most of the tomes - and notes (from her father no doubt) - spoke much on secrecy and the reason Black Mages 'cease to exist', for the most part. To this day she still holds true to that; she is inclined to not speak of what she actually can do and will act ignorant of it when asked. Illith is particularly careful to not cast spells that In present day; she has commissioned specific items that aids in hiding her 'Aetheric flow' and to channel her magick for a stronger effect. For those sensitive at reading such things; the intricate neck piece is in the shape of an Ahriman and houses gemstones that need to be replaced daily - unless said stones are a lesser ' It is usually hidden under her collar and unseen on most occasions. The other commissioned piece, however, aids in channeling her power to a pinpoint. For the time being; they are only seen as ornately designed and taloned gloves. Their actual purpose unknown save for cosmetic effect. After her mother's sudden passing, Illith became cold and resentful. She continued her studies in an attempt to quell her own emotions over her loss; both she and her brother becoming bitter rivals in the following years. Taking up the reigns of the Black Mage; she feels a kindred sensation with the dark magick...it making her feel like she has control during a very questionable time in her life. It is around this time she leaves home without a word. ∗Tendencies∗ Likes . . . Dislikes . . . Hobbies/Talents . . . Other . . . ∗Relations and Allies (and/or enemies)∗ Family . . .
