::Name:: Brynowen St. Claire
::Pronounced:: Br-in-oh-when Saint Claire
::Prefers:: Bryn
::True Name:: Lamechial (The angel of seeing past deception. No normal person should know this though)
::Gender:: Female
::Age:: She’s been around since angels were created, appears 23
::Species:: Angel
::Status:: Fallen
::Location:: Currently Boston
::Occupation:: She works and owns “The Typsy Cupcake”, a bar type thing that serves deserts, alcohol, teas, and other such things.
::Current Place of Living:: Above The Typsy Cupcake
::Transportation:: An army green Jeep Wrangler
::Height:: 5’8”
::Weight:: 118 lbs
::Wing Span:: 14 ½ feet
::Appearance::
Soft, smooth pale skin, fiery red hair with just the slightest hint of wave, and vibrant green eyes are the first of Bryn’s defining features. Her second would be a tall, toned, body with a splash of curve and one heaping scoop of sassy pants. She is a woman of disarmingly charming smiles and a flirtatious, but cutting demeanor. Her attire ranges from skinny jeans and combat boots to short, cute dresses that have been flared out by pairing them with ripped leggings and a leather jacket. Her voice is soft, smooth, and feminine.
Should her Glamour be off, one would noticed that she has large, silvery wings that gradually grow darker until they are a sleek black at the tips of her primaries. Ahem,closest thing I could find.
::Personality::
A self-proclaimed badass whose bark is just as bad as her bite, she has trouble taking orders and has her own, unwavering opinion about everything. It’s no wonder she was kicked out of heaven. She has a mischievous, almost dark charm about her and a natural charisma that may or may not be because she is an angel, that somehow still draws people towards her. Typically, her own interests and desires are the source of her actions; however, the motivation to do good and help someone out just for the hell of it and because she can (even if it means that person has to beg to satisfy some desire to feel important and revered) has not been completely lost. The fact of the matter is, Bryn loves herself, a trait that is probably one of the many reasons she fell and why she hasn’t picked a side; she’s just too awesome to serve anyone else.
Among other things, Bryn is the creative, if not cunning and downright manipulating, puppeteer of her own world. She takes charge, ceases any opportunity (whether it be a coincidence or one of her own making) and strives to move up, never down. She has moved pasted the “good angel cliché” and does what she needs to do even if that isn’t necessarily “heavenly” or follows a “good moral code”. There are few boundaries she won’t cross and few risks she won’t attempt to take. She gives very little notice or interest in the respect others have or should have, despite their social status or self-created notions of power. She is wild, she is untamed, and above all she is herself and will never be someone else even if it puts her at risk. However, this doesn’t mean she is stupid or naïve to the way things work in the world. Though she may act totally fearless and unconquerable, she knows her limitations and what she probably can get away with and what she absolutely cannot. The witty banter, the cunning insults, the playful if not infuriating rousing seems endless, but may be held back if the situation calls for a more serious approach. One positive to her odd ways is that when she truly believes in something or desires to help, no one and nothing can hold her back. She will get involved, she will fight, and it’d be best to just save yourself the trouble and include her instead of trying to keep her out of it. It is in these situations that she finds herself become more of a team player and more willing to work with others instead of being just another loose cannon.
If it hasn’t already become apparent that Bryn is an odd ball, her quirkiness certainly will make up for that. She is goofy and does things just for the lulz, even if it makes herself or someone else look totally ridiculous. The fact is, there is just too many sides to Bryn to list. She is the very meaning of unpredictable; a beautiful chaos that is both sweet and psychotic; graceful but deadly.
::History::
Pre-forum
Brynowen was fairly up there in the ranks of heaven. She did her part, battled demons, vanquished evil, sang some songs, the usual; that is until the great battle took place. Some angels decided to side with God, others with satan, and some were even undecided. However, after the battles had been raged and arguments had been fought to their limits, a choice was all that was left to be made. A gathering was called, every angel despite where they stood, was called into the throne room where they would have to choose, were they with God or with satan. Many chose satan and many chose to side with God, however for Bryn and a few others whose mind wasn’t yet made up, the decision was hard and not instant.
Needless to say, this choice was not favored by God and so they were no longer welcome in heaven. Lightning struck, heaven’s ground shook and cracked as a huge gaping hole began to form. Screams of the angels who slipped into its blackness first, cried out but soon became nothing more than an echo as they descended. Many tried to flee, but as chaos irrupted it soon became apparent, no one who had not chosen God would escape. Much to her horror, the ground under Bryn’s feet gave way, and she plummeted into the nothingness along with satan, his followers, and all who hadn’t made a choice. Screaming was pointless, her wings doing nothing to slow her descent; she plummeted at an unimaginable speed to an unknown destination.
She had no consciousness of time, no idea if it was day or night or if she were falling up or down or sideways or maybe not even at all. The screams that at first had pierced her ears had either fallen silent or had melted into the background until they were meaningless and nonexistent. Her speed suddenly increased, a sharp, burning pain that started at her toes slowly crept its way up to her calves and broke through the numb void that had over taken her mind. Much to her horror, she looked down only to see flames, which despite their searing pain did not damage her skin. She cried out as the flames slowly crept up her body, burning away her robes and other heavenly attire. It was agonizing and despite her struggles, she was powerless and was soon engulfed.
There was a loud crackle, like the sound of a hundred lightning bolts striking the ground at once as she entered the earth atmosphere. The flames continued to surround her, burning away any evidence of what she use to be. A huge boom irrupted as she collided with the ground, the impact knocking her unconscious instantly.
She woke up an undetermined amount of time later, sprawled out on her back, her wings outstretched on either side of her, naked and buried in a thick pile of ash. She managed to rouse herself and discovered that her wings were no longer a brilliant white, but were now a dark ashy grey. She realized quickly that she was now on earth on a mountain all angels were familiar with known as Mount Zion and that she was not alone. Other piles of ash and naked bodies were scattered around her and as she peered into the sky, spotting the screaming balls of fire, she knew more were on their way.
Later she discovered that the Fall had lasted seven years and that the only angels who had fallen directly to earth were the undecided. All those who had chosen satan had joined him in hell. And so, she blended in, hiding her true identity and attempting to live some sort of life throughout the centuries.
::Relationships::
::Angelic Stuff::
-Because power is said to reside in a name, if anyone were to discover Bryn’s true name and then use it in a prayer, she would be instantly and uncontrollably teleported to them.
-Though her Glamour works on all humans, it may not be as strong or may not work at all on certain supernatural creatures. So a demon could easily see past it and see her for who she really is.
-Because she’s all angelic, she is incredibly graceful and balanced. She may seem as light as air at times and can move without being detected by even the most well trained ear.
-She can’t get tattoos. Going to a tattoo shop would be totally pointless because the mundane ink is incapable of staying on her skin. A similar event occurs with piercings. She can get them but if she takes them out they heal. This can be very frustrating.
-Her wings are a dark grey because during the Fall she neither sided with God or with satan. Should she finally choose a side, her wings would thus change again, either growing lighter or dark depending on which side she chose. She believes that because she was undecided, she was placed on earth as a punishment and as a way to give her and others like her time to decide. She also believes Heaven and Hell will one day come against each other once again for a last, final battle and in that time, she will have to choose a side. If she should choose God, then and only then will her wings return to white and her full power be restored.
-Having been one of heavens trained fighters, she’s wicked in combat and will go all ninja on your butt.
-She has a HUGE sweet tooth and loves to cook and drink alcohol (Though it takes A LOT of alcohol to have any effect on her). She will stuff you with cupcakes and boos and you will like it.
::Angelic Powers::
-Glamour- Basically, she can create an illusion at will that disguises her true form. Her wings can’t be seen, felt, or in any way sensed by mortals, thus allowing her to blend in.
-Heightened Strength, speed, and stamina- Just as the ability suggests, she can run faster, longer, and lift heavier things then a human can. She doesn’t get tired or worn out like humans do. She can go without rest for longer periods of time, she can run faster than even the best human athletes, and though she can’t hurl a semi through your bedroom window, she has no problem hurling you.
-Flight- This could probably go without mention, but she is capable of flying at incredible altitudes and at unbelievably fast speeds.
-Small amounts of telekinesis- like really small amounts. Turning off some lights, moving a cup, turning the tv channel, little things that make being lazy easier.
-Deception Perception- She can tell when someone is lying or trying to conceal something (however, she can’t read your mind or magically figure out what it is you’re hiding). And though not forced to, humans and supernatural beings alike often feel compelled to open up to her and tell the truth. A nifty little knack she has that keeps her in the loop with all the dirty Boston gossip.
-Supernatural Awareness- She is able to see past any glamour or deception that is hiding a supernatural creature’s identity. There for she can easily identify creatures. Likewise, she can sense when a curse or spell has been cast on a particular item or place.
-Healing- She can’t be killed by mortal weapons or poisons. Any injuries she sustains can be healed (though not instantly) and she doesn’t succumb to regular illnesses. Curses have little to no effect on her and are easily by passed.
::Angelic Weaknesses::
-Though she can’t be killed by mortal weapons or wounds, injuring her (aka shooting her in the chest) will still hurt and be a nasty hindrance to her until she can manage to heal. She can’t heal instantly and the time it takes for her to heal depends on the severity of the wound. While a paper cut may take a few minutes, a broken leg might take a couple days.
-Because she's faster and stronger her metabolism is insanely fast so she has to consume larger amounts of food more often.
-The blood of a demon burns like acid when it comes into contact with her skin and is both incredibly painful and, depending on how it is used, can be very damaging.
-Her Glamour doesn’t work on all supernatural creatures. While it works without flaw on humans, it might only work to some extent on a werewolf and not at all on a demon or other angels. Depending how powerful the creature is.
-Demonic weapons or weapons that have been made evil in some way (like in a ritual) are the only way to truly kill her when a fatal blow has been dealt.
-She can’t fly when her glamour is on, it just doesn’t work.
-Her strength, speed, and stamina are only better than a human. Werewolves, vampires, and the like are probably going to be able to best her.
::Tidbits::
-She HATES being poked. It's one of her biggest pet peeves.
-Her Glamour tends to come off when she's in a deep sleep.oops.
-She will eat all of your cookies
