| Gemma is a kind hearted woman who abides the law no matter the cost. She is strong, independent, loving, and gentle. She enjoys being outdoors but can often be found inside curled up next to fire reading a book no matter how hot the day is. She lives every day with enjoyment and passion, taking her duties very seriously and would follow the Knight Commander into the depths of hell if she thought it was for a noble cause. Her loyalty is as strong as her blade that is on her no matter where she travels as well as her favorite old world item... a pair of headphones attached to an MP3 player that has long since stopped working. The screen is cracked and the paint has worn off it completely and yet Gemma adores it. She enjoys the simple things in life, feels one with nature, and now that she has been hanging out in Sanctum she's taking to enjoying walks in the market and making sure everyone is being a good moral standing citizen. |
| SKILLS | | Skill I: Sword Play | For as long as Gemma has been on this world she has been using her sword to slaughter one after another. She's honed her skills and despite the loss of memory her body's muscle memory is quick to react.
| | Skill II: Hand to Hand Combat | On the sucky chance that she is caught without her blade, or it is knocked loose from her, she is very capable at hand to hand combat. When she uses aether to boost herself she can be quite fast and strong but that is usually used as a last resort.

|
| POWERS | Gemma is a being made completely of the fifth element, Aether. She cannot breed, cannot die of old age, and cannot ingest any solid food. She must feed on the life forces of others by sucking it from their bodies while they still live. It takes up to a minute drain a fully grown man of all his life force. Younger people require a little bit more time while older people will require less time. If a person is sick with a flue or cold it does not affect their aether but if it is a fatal disease she gets far less aether. She cannot take aether from undead immortals, but other immortals she can. It will leave said immortal weak for weeks, even months at a time depending on how much she takes. When she feeds it removes life force from others, shortening their life span. She feeds only off criminals now and though she can take from multiple sources however since moving here it's not as though people are willing to offer up their life force willy nilly. Once a week she will go out into the wilds to find bandits to kill and devour. As long as she feeds she will stay healthy and well but must feed once a week. If she goes without feeding she starts to slow down, becomes unfocused, will get nose bleeds, and her mood will darken. If she goes too long without eating she will lose control and that takes three weeks of not feeding. If she gets to that point she must devour an entire life force for each week she's missed feeding.
| Racial Traits: Doesn't Age | Because she eats life force she has never aged a day and was born at the age she is today.
| | Ability I: Aether Manipulation | She laces her blade with aether, usually using small strands and about 10% of her reserve and every time she cuts someone she pulls energy from their body and refuels her weapon. The person attacked will experience more and more fatigue till they are weak enough for her to either kill, or feed on. | | Ability II: Crystalus Formation: | When her physical form has taken immense damage her body functions shut down and the Universe will heal her over time. Depending on how serious her wounds are will depend on the time healing. It can range from a few days, to a few months if she died. | | Ability III: Sustaining Energy | Because she is made of aether she really has no need to rest. She will sleep from time to time but that is mostly just to pass time or conserve energy for a fight. If she has consumed plenty of Aether she can also use excess aether to boost her speed to twice that of a human, and her strength to twice that of a human as well.

| POSSESSIONS |
| Old MP3 player with Headset | An old world piece of tech that has long since stopped working. The paint on it is completely gone, the screen is shattered and it is small. The headset with it is bronze with leather lacing as though it has been repaired and parts replaced over the many, many years.
| | Essence - her sword | A thin samurai like blade that she was created with. This blade has held up milenia after milenia in battle with Gemma. It is made of an iron alloy combined with a few special ingredients making it pretty much indestructible. Gemma cleans it and keeps it in pristine condition as though her very life force is connected to it... which it actually is.
|
|
| RELATIONSHIPS |
| Knight Commander Orphael Lith’arn- a man she holds at great regard and would put her life on the line for him. |
| | Lien Braska- A very strange Flora woman who she has a very confusing past with since meeting her. She is not physically attracted to her and yet she always likes being around her. | | | The other Knights and Wraiths of The Order are dear friends to her. |

| HISTORY |
| The Unknown :: Aether elementals are not so much born, as they are created by the universe to serve its calling. Upon her creation she knew her purpose, to keep Earth safe from the destruction of humanity. With her blade in hand she mercilessly slaughtered anyone she found destroying the precious Earth. Her connection to the very earth itself was fierce and loyal but she would only kill those she actual caught doing misdeeds. If her mind could find no evils she would simply walk away, many times leaving children parent-less and left alone to survive on their own. It was never her place to decide their fate... only to bring justice. She spent hundreds of years with no connections to anything... just walking, killing, and eating when she knew she needed to. When the world flooded she moved to the tip top of Mount Everest and allowed her body to freeze over for a very long while. When she came to she gathered her things, and headed back down the mountain. Human kind had changed... after the flood many of them knew that fighting nature wasn't possible. She saw more hope for humanity and that was when she met Chev. The man was kind and old, he lived off the land but took only what he needed. Gemma fell in love with Chev and stayed with him in his old age. It was Chev who gave her the MP3 player and the headset. He told her it was old world tech... something to remind him of when things hadn't existed with nature and yet brought joy to others. After Chev died... Gemma didn't have the heart to leave children parent-less. She continued her pursuits of keeping the earth safe but found herself often using less lethal force. It was what led to her downfall as well. She found a group of miners destroying the earth, mining and harvesting to the point of collapsing structures. Gemma waited until night fall to go in and collapse the entire mine... but was caught. The miners grabbed their pick axes and attacked Gemma. During the fight she kicked one of the miners swung at her but when she dodged he hit the main support beam. It was all it to for the weakened structure to completely cave in. |
| | Present Day :: Gemma somehow ended up in Sanctum. All she can remember is wandering the wilds for a few days before reaching the strange town. She was starving and at first did not enter the city. She had tried to forage for food but nothing seemed right. Instead she waited outside and one night in the quiet of the dark she saw a group of hooded men camping a good distance away. She snuck to the camp and laid near them in some brush, just listening to them talk felt oddly natural considering she couldn't remember what she had been before. But it as she laid there that she could hear them discussing how to steal from the city and how to kill anyone that caught them. It didn't settle right with her.. and listening to them made her even more hungry. Picking up her blade... she cut them down one by one till there was only one left. He begged for mercy and as she approached him, she grabbed his throat and moved her mouth over his.. the instinct taking over as she felt the very life force of him pull from his body and enter her own. It was incredible... the flow of energy into herself filled her hunger. His body turned to ash within her hands, crumbling and falling apart. Her eyes opened, still holding ash from the body. Her eyes turned upward to the universe and slow she recalled... what she was but nothing from before. Still.. she had her her headset and her blade.. so she made her way to the city to see what they had to offer. |

She is looking good so far Lien, but I would suggest that Aether is cosmic energy which we have classified as divine (it would help if I would hurry up and finish off the description. Elemental is limited to the four main types.)
Also... <whsipers> Orphael is male
Let me know when she is done!

She looks fun~ ♪ ♫
Okay so here is what we need to know:
How long does it take her feeding to kill someone? Does age and/or health of the target affect this ability at all? How does it affect other immortal creatures?
Aether Maipulation: How much energy is she pulling? What kind of affects can we expect from that?
Crystalus Formation: How long does it take her to fully heal?
The reason I’m asking these questions is because we have a character (Captain Tombs) that drains “Life Energy” and he has kind of set the bar for a milestone free character with this ability. Speed and strength modifiers are fine.
