Sophilia Belenn Taliel

One, Two, Anime

Nicknames: Soph, Sophia, Bel

Special abilities/skills: Dimensional travel, self defense (though not something professionally learned) and she can speak enough of the many different languages to get her by in most dimensions.

Age: 22

Hair: Blonde, to the bottom of her shoulder blades. Usually straight for the most part, wavy when wet or dried without a brushing.

Eyes: Hazel, looking a greenish grey or grey brown depending on the lighting, with golden flecks around her irises.

Complexion: Naturally olive toned and warm, tanning easily - clear.

Height: 5'7"

Special markings: Sophie has a birthmark on her neck, a little below and behind her left ear. It's in no special shape, and is about the size of a dime. She has a burn scar on her back, around mid-back under her right shoulder blade, though it's a strange shape from almost having been branded during a brush with the Kesh Slomian Trading Company (pirates). The reason it wasn't a full brand was because the ship was attacked, which was how Sophilia escaped. She has various other minor scars from close calls, though she'd probably have to point them out to be noticeable.

Piercings: Three in her right ear, one in the lobe and two in the helix. Two in her left, one in the lobe and one daith. She also has her nose pierced, as well as the webbing between her left thumb and first finger and one on her right hip. She picks up a lot of other worldly things.

Tattoos: She got one, deep in the jungles of Arushba one year. They give the tattoos by using a sharpened bamboo stick, dipping it into an inky concoction of who knows what, and hammering it into the skin. It was of a flying Innedae (a bird similar to our dove), though more intricate. She hadn't asked for an Innedae, just to be surprised. The tribal leader had said he'd chosen an Innedae for her, because she too was beautiful, like the bird, and just as elusive and free.

Other: She has a nervous habit of laughing. In a sticky situation, or when fear creeps in, Sophie can't help but laugh. It's certainly not because she thinks anything is funny, and she can't stop herself from doing it, often making situations worse.

She's naturally curious and filled with wonder and a childish belief that magic and all things mythical are real. She'll believe almost anything, being that she's seen so much. Some might call her gullible, but that's not it. She knows anything is possible. When anything is possible, it's hard to pick and choose which information to believe or not.

While she is a pain, and can be a bit of a wildflower, Sophia carries herself well. She's a little eccentric, but not overly so. And while she's very friendly, and knows many things about manners and etiquette, she can be deceitful and cunning.

Backstory: Since Sophilia was a child, she's been traveling between dimensions collecting various artifacts and rare items. Some of which she doesn't exactly pay for. She uses her charm and intellect to con people out of things, and is very attracted to shiny things, like gold and jewels.

Don't get her wrong, she's not all bad. She'll be the first to share her food with the hungry and give a homeless child something to pawn off for food or clothing. She's very worldly, or should we say, dimensionally... and while seeming like a ball of spitfire and attitude, she has a very deep, thoughtful and calm side.

She loves to meet new people and see new places. Most everyone loves Sophie immediately, at least until she steals from them. So she has sticky fingers and a problem? She can't help it! She's mischievous and loves to have fun. She's a lively and carefree soul.

Sophie doesn't have a place to call home. While her parents would disagree, she ran away from home at a very young age, hating all the rules and stipulations of living under a roof. Who needs a roof when they have the world, and not just one, but hundreds?
