Aelevi Spencer

[Aelevi Spencer]

Name: Aelevi Spencer
Age: 26
Birthday: December 7th
Species: Shifter
Shifter Animal: Pallid Bat
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 130lbs
Hair Color: Bleach Blonde (dyes her hair often)
Eye Color: Silver

Other Traits:
Aelevi has never been diagnosed as a "manic depressive", but she exhibits blackouts, manic episodes and depression frequently. She is a compulsive liar and can cry on cue.

Appearance
Aelevi has a long oval shaped face, high cheekbones, very large and expressive eyes and a modest mouth. She has an average appearance, like a college student that doesn't know how to take care of her body. Most of her body fat is carried on her chest and stomach. She will often walk around with her arms wrapped around her stomach, the gnawing feeling of hunger always scratching a grumbling pit in her gut. She's not the kind of character that would be able to put up a fight, sooner to throw up on you than throw a competent fist your way. She enjoys dresses, jackets with lots of pockets, jeans, blouses; no matter what Aelevi wears she makes sure to stand out in a crowd.

Appearance Refs:

I feel like I need to mention that most of her art she has 'bat ears', but I can assure you this isn't how I RP her. She has normal human ears, I promise.

Personality:

-- Aelevi is a loose cannon character. She has a weak grasp on what’s real and what’s made up in her head.

-- Aelevi has histrionic personality disorder. Aelevi enjoys attention. Good or bad, she neeeeeeds to have it and she craves it. She has no self control, often overtly sexual and is often looked down by heterosexual females.

-- She is never ‘quite there’ and will often talk about things that happened like they were dreams, as if they felt so real, but she had an ‘outer body aura’ that it couldn’t possibly happen.

-- She doesn’t understand personal boundaries, which becomes more blatantly clear when she decides to over drink or get high (purposefully gets close to people). This could be because as a bat she finds comfort in roosting with other bats, family groups! She absolutely loves to be impossibly close to strangers.

-- Aelevi’s personality is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re going to get. The truth is, most people take a bite out of her and spit her back into the box.

-- She uses drugs as an escape from the real world and often hallucinates shadows and talks about how "things seem so unreal".

-- Aelevi has three states of being: under influence, hungover and sober. She is never quite capable of accomplishing anything productive when she's sober. Particularly, the sunlight is "too harsh" for her eyes waking up dry, so she will wait until night to go out and run errands.

-- She's riddled with bad habits. She bites her nails, chews on her hair until the ends split, bites people-- but some still find her endearing, strangely enough.

-- She is fidgety and flighty, very flaky as well. Don't expect her to be on time, when she says she'll be there.

-- She should give off the air of 'needing assistance' and will attempt to manipulate people so that she can get the most out of their generosity.

-- Aelevi is perceived as a liar, but because she doesn’t really know the difference between reality and her mind, she blurs the lines of what’s true and what’s false. Other characters will see her as a liar, but she sees herself as just sharing a little about herself, the evidence is usually enough to convince her and others.

Relationships


Nadda.



History:
- She was kicked out of her parents house at the age of eighteen.
- She went to Narcotics Anonymous to scope for local halfway houses, and lived with people much like herself for around three years.
- She would sign up at different NA meetings to match-up with male sponsors. Often times she would sleep with them long enough to rob them blind, money, clothes, video games, anything she could sell at consign stores or pawn shops. She would also use her sponsors as a place to sleep and eat and use the money she earned on drugs.
- Aelevi also made most of her money by grifting-- picture a piss-stained hobo clutching a bottle of booze-- this is her favourite role to play.
- But around the age of 25 she was approached by the local police station to be an outside informant on crime beats. Mostly for narcotics cases, since she's well known on the drug beat. Journalists also interview her as a classified informant for high investigative stories. The police pay her enough wage to keep her from stealing from people, and she's protected from anyone that might want to kill her (police protection rocks!).
- She now lives in a modest apartment and she never misses rent.

Alternate Species: Pallid Bat

-image pending-


When Aelevi shifts into a pallid bat, she is almost completely blind (partially retains vision because of her shifter genes). However, she MUST use echolocation to travel and she CANNOT stand to be out during sunrise/daylight. Shifting for her is very difficult and it puts her at a LESS than desirable state when she does shift into her bat form. However, she enjoys flying and screaming "I AM THE NIGHT" in her little batty squeaks (who doesn't?) -- also obviously no one can understand her. A+ effort. Gold star bat.

Benefits of being a bat: flying.
Negatives of being a bat: everything else.
Okay, well being a bat allows her to scope around for holes in establishments like crevices in roofs that she can roost in. This is beneficial if for whatever reason, she's planning to hide some drugs in the roof of a place that has no connection to her. Bats can totally carry ziploc baggys of weed, guys.

It should be assumed that during the winter months, Aelevi will not be able to shift into her bat form. Because bats normally hibernate during the winter her bat form is sleeping inside. This causes a great deal of stress on Aelevi's body, kind of makes her restless. When she cannot shift she develops lethargic behavior and takes naps more often. She is also prone to episodes of depression which can cause her to become cranky and irrational.

Aelevi will not be able to shift into her bat state when she is drunk, but she has been able to shift completely while she has been high. Of course, drugs have a negative reaction on her bat form and this can cause her to be very clumsy, and lead her to get into dangerous circumstances.

Weight: 3.5g
Wing Span: 5.5inches.

Bat Shifter Traits (Human)


When Aelevi is in human form she has a couple of benefits from being a bat shifter. Much like how werewolves have benefits despite being in their human form.

Surround Sound: Aelevi has exceptional hearing, above that of a normal human. Where humans would become muddled with other sounds (cars, people talking, music, other animals), Aelevi has the ability to pinpoint every sound around her and recognize it. This exceptional hearing usually kicks in when Aelevi is in some sort of heightened distress/danger. This just concerns hearing, she is unable to use "echolocation" as a human (obviously), and her eyesight is normal for a human (20/20 vision).

Exceptional Climber: Just as it says, she is an exceptional climber. Trees, chain-link fences, brick walls (within reason, like if the wall is under 10ft high), and whatever else she feels like she can tackle. This stems from her specific species of bat: pallid bat + human = A+ climber. In most instances it may seem impossible for her to cling or hang from tree branches, but you must remember, that bats do that all the time.
