Tell Us About Yourself
Name: Kyasurin Kashidii Gender: Female Age: 21 Race: Ryougan Alliance: Serpente
What Do You Look Like?
Picture/Description: Kya is tall, curvy, and eye-catching, and she uses this to her advantage. Her hair is jet-black and gently curled, and she usually keeps it down. It falls to her lower back. She is very well-equipped, as women go, and she knows it. Her eye color is complex, seemingly blue one moment, brown the next, or even bright red, but they are generally dark green. Her skin is pale-white, and nearly glows.
Her clothing style is… sparse, and revealing. She wears a peasant-style white top and a black skirt that stops inches above her knees, and has a slit up to her waist on one side. When she’s not barefoot, which she prefers, she wears knee-high black boots. She wears a corset of sorts over the top in blood-red, which matches the red sash she wears tied around her thigh. Eye Color: Dark green Hair Color Black Height: 5’8” Weight: 125 Notable Feature: Her eyes – nobody is ever quite sure what color they are Her body She has subtle scars, but her most noticable ones are on her back.
You Can Do That?!
Powers: Hypnosis. It all depends on her eye color. When her eyes are dark green, as they usually are, she hasn’t used her powers recently. When they are red, she’s used a burst of power. Her eyes are pale, pale blue if she’s been using her powers for more than a few minutes.
It is possible for people to break out of her hypnosis. Eye contact being broken is enough, though humans cannot break eye contact themselves. Other Ryougans can, with effort, break eye contact, or Kya could be pushed to break eye contact. If it’s broken, she becomes exhausted, no matter how long she’d been using the power.
Her victims generally don’t realize they’re being hypnotized, and feel and act as if it’s they’re choice. But if she’s making them do something that we would consider a mortal sin i.e. murder, rape, etc…, then the only recollection they’d have would be brief moments of déjà vu, as if remembering a dream, and they would not be aware of it at the time.
She's never hypnotized more than one person at a time, and doesn’t plan on risking it because she’s not sure what would happen. The only thing that would happen is that the strength of the hypnosis would lessened considerably and she would much more exhausted afterward.
Strength(s): Kya is very apt at reading body language and has uncanny social skills. She has her own brand of power, very subtle, and knows how to wield it well.
Weakness(es): She can only use hypnosis for about 10 minutes at a time, if that. If she doesn't get sleep soon after that, she cannot hypnotize anybody and would most likely faint.
I Wanna Know More!
Personality: Kya is sarcastic flirty, sassy, and manipulative. Her general outward personality is friendly and loyal, but she is far from that. She is a natural-born leader, but prefers to stay behind-the-scenes and away from the action when possible. She is forceful and decisive and doesn’t have much patience for mistakes. She is quick to voice her opinions and never has many regrets, unless it becomes an argument.
She believes feelings are weak, and hides any of hers easily. Because of this, many grudges brew within her, primarily against her step-father and her brother. She doesn’t let anyone close to her, and does not open up to anybody.
She’s resorted to prostitution to get by, generally remaining close to the Serpente people, but she’s not picky. She’s perfectly content as long as she has food and a place to stay at night. She gets what she needs and her clients get what they need, and that’s all there is to it. She has no hidden regrets because of this aspect of her lifestyle.
Likes/Dislikes Likes: Flirting Night-time Men
Dislikes: ‘Prudes’ Arguments Abuse Women
History: Not much is known about her history. She never shares her story. Her father walked out on her, her mother, and her older brother when she was a few months old. Her mother remarried when she was 6, and her stepfather was abusive in every aspect of the word. Her brother turned his back on the family when she was 13, and she thought of him as a traitor. Her mother died when she was 17, and, after a long and painful argument with her stepfather, she left for Verada. She met other Ryougans there. She’d always known there was something different about her and her family, except for her stepfather, but her mother would never explain. She’s been in the city ever since. Doesn’t think much of the war, but is essentially Serpente because she can’t think of where else to go.

*holds a Serpente Flag in the air* whoop, whoop, whoop!
(:
Haha, acutally I would like to see more details about her hypnosis:
- Can people break out of it? If so, how; If not, then why. If they do break out of it, does it have an effect on Kyasurin (love the name, by the way)? Or does the hypnosis only stop when she says stop?
- When using hypnosis, is the victim aware of what they're doing? If not, would they have any recollection of their hypnotic state later on down the road?
- When you say 10 minutes, I'd actually like to see a post limit instead i.e., using it for so many posts and having a post limit between each use. It's kind of heard to measure time in an rp.
- Can she hypnotize more than one person at time? If so, what's the consequence?
But other than that, everything is fine. ^^

They generally don’t realize they’re being hypnotized, and feel and act as if it’s they’re choice. But if she’s making them do something that we would consider a mortal sin i.e. murder, rape, etc…, then the only recollection they’d have would be brief moments of déjà vu, as if remembering a dream, and they would not be aware of it at the time.
- When you say 10 minutes, I'd actually like to see a post limit instead i.e., using it for so many posts and having a post limit between each use. It's kind of heard to measure time in an rp. I’d say… about 3-5 posts from her? Does that sound reasonable? What are your thoughts on this? I don’t want her to be too powerful, y’know…
- Can she hypnotize more than one person at time? If so, what's the consequence? She never has, and doesn’t plan on risking it because she’s not sure what would happen. The only thing that would happen is that the strength of the hypnosis would lessened considerably and she would much more exhausted afterward.
*nod* I'll add these into her bio as well. Is this acceptable? This is the first time I've ever worked with powers, so yeah.

Hm, with your character having just one power, I'll allow it to be five posts. But don't abuse it.
Welcome to DA! ^^
Accepted!! *stamps forehead*
