Description

Name: Shilah

Age: 470 years old

Species: Odds & Ends

Height: 8' 6"

Weight: 120 lbs (Really, she's heavier than this, I just can't change the weight I put on the app at this point. Anyone wanna help me with that? )

District: Eliyitia

Skill: Essence

Job: N/A

Personality: Shilah is a very sad girl, and with 470 years of experience, she has plenty of reason to be. While she is most often seen sad and shy, she is very hopeful, and has a tendency to follow people around until she is outright told to go away. After such things she will mope for a while, then find someone new to follow. Shilah is rather insecure, but doesn't fish for compliments. If she is given one, however, expect to be given a new gift of some sort each week.

History: Shilah doesn't remember many vivid details of her life. She died in 1543 and drifted for quite a while before making her way to London and accidentally inhabiting the mouse a boy had been imagining. From there, she kept up her body-hopping, meeting many new people and traveling many different places all across Earth. Many people were bad to her, and many others were good, but she ended up just being very shy from the get-go. She is always happy to share what she does remember, as she remembers more each time she shares; all she asks in return is to hear the story of those who are asking.

Her time right before Astra is what she remembers most vividly. Her current form came about when she went searching for a new form in the mind of a child whose imagination was waging war against reality. While she could have intervened, by this time she had learned to stay out of such things and to avoid conflict altogether, and so she took a form and left. Shortly after this, she met another of the Odds & Ends and traveled with this friend for several years before finding out about Astra and how to get there. They would not be separated and decided to go together, but during the trip there, they were attacked, and when Shilah woke up in Astra, her companion was gone, along with her arm. Naturally, she has some PTSD relating to this incident, but is overall very good with keeping it in check and functioning normally. Thunderstorms are not good for her sanity, and if she's alone for quite a while she tends to get a little crazy, clinging to people and performing strange tricks with her Essence.

Additional Info:

The one skill Shilah truly prides herself on is her ability to move without making any noise. She is very good at this, and tends to startle people.

Her hair floats around her, defying gravity, and is always in motion, whether there's wind or not. The tuft on the end of her tail is the same sort of stuff.

Her eyes glow in the dark.
