"FAIRIES, BLACK, GREY, GREEN, AND WHITE YOU MOONSHINE REVELLER, AND SHADES OF NIGHT"
AMARANTH
Name: Amaranth a.k.a Amara
Age: Unknown, estimated over 600 years old
What are you?: Elf, Seelie Court Second-In-Command
Appearance:
Amaranth is very tall, like most elves. She stands at 6'3" and weighs somewhere between 145-170lbs. Amaranth has never known her weight, all she knows is that elves are very light for their height and build. Amara is very lean but muscular. She prides herself in have an athletic body, it makes her all the more prepared for any battles that may arise. Amara has long dark brown to black hair. She has pale white skin. You could say Amaranth is the 'Snow White' of Elven kind.
Amaranth's eyes tend to change based on her mood. When she is angry or annoyed her eyes become a bright warning blue but otherwise she has beautiful deep sapphire colored eyes. Amaranth, despite the change in times, still wears lots of armor as do all of the soliders. She also wears plenty of long flowing dresses when she isn't out patrolling.
Personality:
Amaranth is a very odd person. She can be very kind, nurturing, friendly, but also very mysterious and dangerous. Amaranth is one of the oldest elvel soldiers alive and she has spent hundreds of years as a soldier. Amaranth isn't easy to read emotion wise. She tends to not show her emotions to anyone, even people she has become very close to. It's just first nature. Amaranth is mostly a very calm individual. She loves being around young fae children because they remind her of her childhood.
Amaranth is a rather respectful person, even when dealing with enemies. However, if you have rubbed her the wrong way for far too long she won't hesitate to make it known to you and others. Amaranth doesn't keep many secrets and if she does it's because they were told to her in absolute secrecy. Amaranth isn't afraid to speak her mind and she is open to letting people speak theirs as well.
Amara does have a dark side though. She was once a soldier for the Unseelie Court and so she has some dark ways of approaching things at times. Amara isn't pleasant when she is angry. She often is a better fighter when she is angry because no matter who gets in her way won't deter her from her mission. But Amara's angry side rarely comes out which is why she is no longer part of the Unseelie Court.
WE'VE ALL GOT OUR SECRETS...
History:
Amara was born of two elven parents 600 years or so ago. She was raised in the Unseelie Court as a soldier, like her own parents. Amara, from a very young age was trained by both of her parents who for some reason despised the human world. Amara's parents were firm but loving towards their daughter. She grew up with an older brother, Bruniviere, who was twelve years older than her.
When Amara was sixteen she was officially named a soldier of the Unseelie Court. Her first duty was to patrol the Forgotten Lands in case any rogue fae or enemy clans decided to pass through. Eventually she moved up to hunting down people who had done the Unseelie Court members and leader wrong. A few times she had to carry out punishments to fae herself, including removing the wings of a few pixies.
None of the things Amaranth did for the Unseelie Court felt good to her. Some days she would be in such a rage she didn't care but in the days following she would feel remorse. One day, the Queen of the Seelie Court approached her when she was patroling. The Queen had offered for Amara to come to the side of the Light where she would feel good about the things she did. By then Amara had become a valuable soldier and the two Courts were playing catch with one another's subjects. But Amara didn't care. In the dead of that very same night she switched over to the side of the Light. Over the next couple hundred years Amara worked her way up from being the lowest ranked of all the soldiers to becoming Second-In-Command. When the Queen of the Seelie Court was killed Amara was, because of her previous position, appointed leader of the Seelie Court.
