Examples of this alignment include tyrants, devils, corrupt officials, undiscriminating mercenary types who have a strict code of conduct, blue dragons, and hobgoblins. Mantenette, while is perceived as outrightfully Evil, is defined as Lawful - Neutral solely on the basis that she is misguided: Meanwhile, she has an infection that debilitates her true demeanor, emotions, goals, and physical wants and needs. To define her as Lost wouldn't be entirely the case, as while she is aware of some of the things she does and she still has emotions, she is still capable of changing them: She just doesn't throughout the sake of her infection taking the wheel of control. A mirror to her would be the side character who fights for the necessary evil in the plotline, brainwashed and believing it is the perfect way to live. ͟͟͞͞➳❥ ≺ PERSONALITY TYPE ≻ [ INFJ-A / INFJ-T ] The Advocate: Advocates’ unique combination of personality traits makes them complex and quite versatile. For example, Advocates can speak with great passion and conviction, especially when standing up for their ideals. At other times, however, they may choose to be soft-spoken and understated, preferring to keep the peace rather than challenge others. ͟͟͞͞➳❥ ≺ RELIGION ≻ [ EXIST COLOSSI + FAITH OF ESTEL ] At first the religion was something Mantenette bonded with her mother Majesty over: Together they would learn the hymns and preach the choir songs of Estel, understanding Her path made. When the two became Scorrico, the religion burrowed deeper, and Mantenette evolved to believe that everything in her daily life was meant for Estel: To break Her from the Archdaemon's treacheries, and awaken Her from the nightmarish slumber. By now, Mantenette has been influenced vastly different, her religion devoid of kindness and corrupted enough for one simple goal to be on her mind: Rid the world of the Void. 10/10. -ˋˏ ༻❁༺ ˎˊ- ╭⋟────────────────────────╮█████████████████████████████████████████████︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶ ︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶ █████████████████████████████████████████████ ╰────────────────────────⋞╯ -ˋˏ ༻❁༺ ˎˊ- BIOLOGY ︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶ ༊ ▒ HER ▒ ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Imagine someone as a flower: Do you see thorns? Red? White? What color are those aged petals, shriveling into dust in the wind. That is the flower you will see her as, one not of beauty but of poison, aching bones and toxic features that draw in the most dangerous of predators only to reveal she is the top of the food chain. █████████████████████████████████████████████︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶ ︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶ █████████████████████████████████████████████ ༊ ▒ OVERVIEW ▒ ͟͟͞͞➳❥ ≺ FACE ≻ [ HALF-QUSSRAKON, HALF-ITHANIAN ] ༄ؘ << EYE >> These eyes used to glower a beautiful lavender with the Exist's blessings, but now it is duo: One is torn out, the left, and covered by a silky grey, while the other has that same old lavender hue, except jaded. Currently, they are converted to their Blood Eyes 6 passive, with a shiny icy blue sclera and black pupil. ༄ؘ << FEATURES >> A lover of pearls, Mantenette wears two gifted to her by an old friend who once sought to clob her head off: She also wears a string of some on her neck, and isn't seen without them. In the past she opted to wear veils, yet the days show she is willing to forego it and live a life seeing through normal colors. Has no epileptic eye folds, and looks half-and-half between parents lineages. Her skin is taut and damaged, arms decayed with burning scars and face implanted with a large bruising that warped and torn away her left eye. ༄ؘ << HAIR >> Wavy blonde that is reminiscent of large hayfields touched by Aloria's golden sun: Half curled, half straight genetically, Mantenette seems to overwhelm it with pearl indents and jewelry, including headdresses when it comes to steppe ceremonies.͟͟͞͞➳❥ ≺ BODY ≻ ༄ؘ << SHAPE >> Ripped. Feminine, but upper-body heavy: Biceps and torso are built with muscle. ༄ؘ << FAT >> Low body fat. Leaning into the starved appearance, and yet still readily healthy, Mantenette has a low body fat from her diet of pure souls, but used to have a higher count when she was normal. ༄ؘ << HEIGHT >> 5'9". 6'9" Beast mode (6'0" in length). ༄ؘ << SKINTONE >> A fusion between olive pale and tanned: Leaning into half-asian quantities. ͟͟͞͞➳❥ ≺ PHYSICALITY ≻ ༄ؘ << MUSCULARITY >> Upper-body heavy. Capable of running distances, and is capable of lifting a singular person below her physical stat.

She expands her body to a full 6'9" height, 6'0" in length with a threatening snow-white carapace hardening over her skin, and no longer is she known to be the timid with a powerful strut, and instead a beast to be wary of. Her coloration besets that of flowers, and her midsection wraps into a multitude of darkening centipedal legs that wrap and waver similar to the sandy dunes of the farah'deen in unison. Similar to a Slizzar's empowering tail, stretching to that of size to invigorate her height and meaning, her purple emperor wings crest around her mantoidal head, and she expands into her truer power. re: orchid mantis, tiger stripes, large african centipedes. - ͙۪۪̥˚┊❛ -------- ❜┊˚ ͙۪۪̥◌ ❏༊ ▒ PROFICIENCIES ▒ ͟͟͞͞➳❥ ≺ DEVELOPMENT≻ After Mantenette had been through the thick and thin of Regalia's hardships, she retreated to her roots: Majesty was not just a ritualist, but a renowed seamstress of the valley, and she passed down her fabric scissors to Mantenette before they separated in hopes of teaching her daughter one last thing to be successful in the world. Still carrying that genetic commandry, Mantenette had retreated out to the open Archipelago and adapted into a commander of Scor forces down in Osteiremark named 'Venenum Imperium'. ︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶ ༊ ▒ CORE ▒ Total: 50 pts. 10 hobby. ! ༄ؘ sword combat (13 pts. longsword investment) ༄ؘ strength training (5 pts. upper arm investment) ! ༄ؘ dagger combat (10 pts. racial boost; 15.) hobby ༄ؘ theatre art (1 pts core.) ༄ؘ dancing art (10 pts hobby.) ༄ؘ needlework art (5 pts core. crocheting + weaving) ༄ؘ fabric art (5 pts. core. cotton + ithanian silk + hemp) ༄ؘ leatherworking art (5 pts. core. furs + cowhide) schooling ༄ؘ performance schooling (6 pts. madame bette's performing arts + nicolodi's dance academy) ༄ؘ school of mariposa (free. bjoux-plusse-reme) ༄ؘ school of avant (free. homeland plains) - ͙۪۪̥˚┊❛ -------- ❜┊˚ ͙۪۪̥◌ ❏༊ ▒ SPECIALTIES ▒ ͟͟͞͞➳❥ ≺ GENETIC ≻ ༄ؘ << SHREWD INSIGHT I >> [ CONTROL POWER ] When conversing with a person, the user can, once a day, detect the true disposition of a person towards them. This may be done either by detecting how much the target likes or dislikes the user, or by more specifically detecting how they perceive the user. This may need to be updated from time to time, as people change their minds about others all the time. A character with at least 10 Proficiency Points in Theatre Arts is immune to this Ability. They simply send back blank results. ༄ؘ << KEEN MIND I >> [ TRIGGER PASSIVE ] Whenever any Control Power is used on the user that has some sort of Emotion, Feelings, Opinion or Perception reading element, the user immediately becomes aware that their mind is being prodded, and can send back whatever signal they want, thus effectively faking any attempt to read them and manipulate the person trying to read them on top. ༄ؘ << MIND WALL I >> [ TOGGLE PASSIVE ] The Character has Target Illusion immunity, and can perceive that a Target Illusion is being used on them. They may turn on or off this Illusion at will from their perception.͟͟͞͞➳❥ ≺ SKILLS ≻ ༄ؘ << GREAT FORCE I >> [ CONSTANT PASSIVE ] If at any point within 7 blocks of the user heavy objects are falling (for example, a collapsing roof or beam, or a large boulder) the character can brace the falling objects and hold them up long enough for nearby others to escape or not be harmed, and also create an escape for themselves. This Ability cannot be used for any Combat advantage. ! Spoiler ͟͟͞͞➳❥ ≺ AFFLICTION ≻ ༄ؘ << BLOOD EYES VI >> [ CONSTANT PASSIVE ] The Character permanently has darkened eye-sockets, and irises that are solid icy-blue and glowing, with a small black pupil. This overrules any other Mutations or effects unless that effect specifically mentions hiding Blood Eyes 6. ༄ؘ << CAHALIC FORM I >> [ FULL SHIFT ] The Character is able to Mythic Shift into their Cahalic Form. While in Cahalic Form, the Character has access to all Abilities from the Abilities from their Soul Line Ability Kit. Shifting in and out of Cahalic Form is instant, cannot be Cancelled or Countered, and the player may design the Cahalic Form, with some ground rules. For the Ground Rules, refer to the Bloodline page, which will have an outline on the limitations and design choices for Cahalic Form. This Ability has no Cooldown. ༄ؘ <<OMNIAWARE I >> [ CONSTANT PASSIVE ] The user cannot be taken by surprise from behind, below, the sides, above or from far away. If any (Mundane) attack or harming Ability is used on them, a sixth sense will trigger making them aware of an attack that would otherwise take them by surprise. This does not grant additional dodging or avoiding mechanisms or guarantees, so standard Combat Roleplay Logic must still apply to dictate whether or not the user would be able to fairly block or avoid an incoming attack. This Ability purely gives the knowledge of such an incoming attack. ༄ؘ << ILLUVIATION I >> [ TARGET ILLUSION ] This Ability can only be used while outside of combat, the moment the Character is attacked or enters combat, or tries to utilize the illusions in a combat scenario, all Illusions break. This Ability grants the Character far-reaching Illusion capabilities, capable of creating small illusions that are indistinguishable from reality, or large reality-replacing illusions that change the environment the Target is in. Illusions come with sound, smell, taste, sense, sight and hearing, and can even give off warmth or cold to the touch, even if it is not real. The Character can change targets flawlessly, and can also switch from single-Target to group-Target effects, however only a maximum of up to 3 people can be affected at any given time. This Ability does not telegraph, meaning that if the Character is for example a Vampire with Blood Eyes 1, then Blood Eyes 1’s iris color function does not activate on the usage of this Ability. It additionally has no Cooldowns. ༄ؘ << SUMMON WALL I >> [ LINKED CHANNEL ] | 5 BLOCKS The Character can stand still and Channel for 30 seconds to summon a 2x3 (of either orientation) sized Wall in an unoccupied space within 5 blocks of them made of material determined by the source of this Ability. This Wall can be made in between doorways, or independent of any other structures, but cannot be placed over existing structures or people. Once created, the Character must remain within 5 Blocks of the Wall, or else it will disappear. The Wall can be broken naturally as if it was made of mundane wooden materials through a minute of uninterrupted effort. Once the Wall is created, the Character is no longer considered as Channeling for the purpose of counters. Summon Wall 1 cannot be cast again within Emote Distance of an already existing Summon Wall 1 wall. In order to place a Wall, use an in-game ticket to ask Lore Staff or World Staff for help. The Wall can be made of any legal blocks, with a sign that states “Summon Wall 1.” This Ability can only be used once every 30 minutes. ༄ؘ << PREDATOR LEAP >> [ EXIST SPELL ] The user can leap from anywhere (also Wall Climb 1-4, even if these Abilities state no other Abilities can be used while suspended), causing them to instantly leap towards their target. This attack is a guaranteed hit, always causing the target to fall on their back to the ground, with the user on top pinning them down with their arms. This does not count as keeping the target restrained, as they can still fight back. This Ability can be used once every 15 minutes. ༄ؘ << TRUE PATH I >> [ TOGGLE PASSIVE ] The user is able to begin a charge or running speed in a particular direction. Once reaching a particular block, they may activate True Path 1 to scatter their body into a large cloud of non-harmful smaller objects, or flora, or critters, and continue traveling in the same direction as they were running. This allows them to continue moving for up to 10 blocks at sprinting speed, allowing them to pass through any hole, crack or opening. This can be to for example, float through a guard formation, a door, a wall of spikes, etc. After traveling 10 blocks, the character re-manifests, this Ability cannot be ended early, unless met with a solid wall without openings. This Ability has a 15 minute cooldown. ༄ؘ << LIGHT MEND III >> [ MAGIC SPELL ] The user feeds and gains strength from sunlight or moonlight. Either moonlight or sunlight are capable of feeding the user much like normal food would, thus making drinking and eating redundant for them (though they still can). Additionally, while standing outside (with no block that interrupts a direct line from the player model to the open sky, including leaf blocks), the Character has +5 Physical Stat, and can choose to absorb strength from the moon or sun and increase Body Shape by one additional step. ༄ؘ << WALL CLIMB IV >> [ TOGGLE PASSIVE ] The user can climb up, down, or sideways (but not diagonally) on any vertical surface with walking speed, and hold onto the wall with one hand stopping and resuming at any spot. This Ability does not grant any lethal falling damage mitigation, though it is possible for climbers to jump from a suspended position halfway up the wall. Channel Abilities cannot be utilized while Climbing with Wall Climb 4. ༄ؘ << SOLLERIAN MIST I >> [ EXIST SPELL ] | 10x10 BLOCK The user can deploy a low-hanging Sollerian Mist field in a 10 by 10 block area around their casting position. This mist is about knee high, and will not obscure vision, but gently dance around the movements of those inside of it. It does not affect others at all, however any Solvaan Altalar that is inside the Mist moves at the speed of an Asha, thus having the greatest running speed only matched by those just as fast as Asha, and not being weighed down by any armor worn. While Sollerian Mist 1 is active in a 10x10 area after being cast, it cannot be re-cast until the last Mist dissipates in an area of 100x100 around the casting point. Additionally, this Ability can only be used once per day. The mist will remain for 1 hour, except if there are no Solvaan Altalar within Emote Distance of it, in which case it instantly dissipates. ༄ؘ << SUSTENANCE GIFT I >> [ OBJECT ENCHANT ] The Character is able to enchant a single dinner table or food-shop stall, once per day. When used, all foods and drinks on this table taste and provide satisfaction to a similar degree as 10 Points in Culinary Arts Proficiency would. If the food and drinks were made with someone who has equal to or more than 10 Culinary Arts, the quality would instead be 20 Points in Culinary Arts (even if the limit is 15, thus tasting ecstatic). Additionally, anyone who has consumed these food or drinks, will be unable to detect the Vampire feeding on them for 1 hour after their first bite or sip from the food or drinks. If the Vampire were to feed on them, their awareness and memory would simply lapse and not record the event, leaving them with a vague interaction memory, but nothing hostile or strange having happened. This Enchant is not telegraphed, meaning that the Character’s eyes will not turn red, and the Enchant on the table and its food and drinks only lasts for 2 hours, with a 24 hour Cooldown. This qualifies as enchanted food in reference to Blood Curse 1. ༄ؘ << DARK CURSE I >> [ TARGET CURSE ] | DIRECT TOUCH The user can Curse a person with Dark Curse 1 to make them forget the faces and voices of people they have heard for the past 24 hours. In order to use this Ability, the Target must be restrained or knocked out, and be unable to resist or fight back. Once applied, for a full 24 hours (or shorter, if desired by the user), the Target will forget all faces and voices of the people they interacted with before the use of the Ability. If they try to remember, all the silhouettes and faces of the people they interacted with will appear like black shadows, and their voices will sound monstrous and warped, though they will still remember what was said, what the areas they visited looked like, and other visual aspects. Even though this is a Curse, its effect is applied immediately, and cannot be reversed afterwards in any way. Those with Target Curse Immunity or Memory Altering Prevention are Immune to the effects of this Ability. -ˋˏ ༻❁༺ ˎˊ- ╭⋟────────────────────────╮█████████████████████████████████████████████︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶ ︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶ █████████████████████████████████████████████ ╰────────────────────────⋞╯ -ˋˏ ༻❁༺ ˎˊ- BACKSTORY ︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶ Spoiler: beginning. ꒱ؘ ࿐ age 0 - age 7.

Spoiler: ending. ꒱ؘ ࿐ age 24 - age 36. ┊as she traveled, she was looking for job opportunities and became a maid underneath the “jaquinot-beaubois” household who had a high salary for her. she would often do laboral things instead of instruct, and learned some titles of food and drinks through frequently hearing them and comparing them to color. many people mistook her as literate and smart, as she was capable of parroting words frequently in d’ithi from her mothers teachings. ┊she was eventually called “mantenette” for her grace and strength, before willingly having her name doctrinated from the “barbaric” qussrakon name to “mantenette vrière-illuminée orchidéecoeur bouton papillon de vallée de fleurs”, which she still sometimes familiarly follows in the archipelago, but as of recent years in 309, started to lean back to her original title. ┊while she was attending to her duty as a stewardess, she was given the opportunity to study theatre and dance law with philosophy in lois penal at the age of twenty-four in madame bette’s performance school. for these next three years, she would learn to dance and tell apart faces, utilizing her lexxon passion to excel. ┊the family then gifted her studies of the mariposa school through a man named manchester huiviesse-terrois solely from her wanting to. these two grew closer and almost wed, if it hadnt been for mantenette’s disapproval of it and denial of the ring. ┊manchester knew of her illiteracy, so he attempted to teach her through using visuals and portfolios instead, laughing at her inability to read simple sentences. ┊for this, she then started faking to read, consistently holding books and dedicating her time to acting. most if not a lot of her theatrics comes from lying, and the mariposa ways of the school with her dancing. ┊twenty-five, six then seven was around the time that she studied around manchester post-proposal, the energy of the room dying and being blander by the month. she proposed to him estel’s faith, and guided him into the ways of werebeastism, willingly infecting him with the scorrico soul-line. ┊although she is “illiterate”, mantenette was capable of rehearsing passages from what her mother told her, thus how she successfully memorized estel’s faith from the book she annotated. she still does this in 309, annotating books to better understand them, yet it takes her mere days to do it. some books she may return will have pencil scribbles in them as she tries to pick out familiar words. ┊as payment for his laughter at her stupidities, mantenette belittled and bittered manchester, continuing to manipulate him akin to that of a secondary ear/missionary for herself before releasing him into a torturous world with mixed faith and wrong ideologies. ┊then came twenty-nine, thirty and thirty-one, where another set of events rolled about. the elven war of 302, the regalian civil strife, the continued ranger crisis (ranger’s treaty), the battle of calemberg, the songaskian war and alexander the i’s rule of the empire. although these events were impactful for her political compass, the only events that truly deterred her being were the following. ┊the bone horror crisis with the lo occupation impacted her heavily, driving her out of the capital and killing her long-beloved colt, laffiette, in the heat of the battle. she had become a khatun, leading people to the shore's safety and across the archipelago to the crown capital, landing in a refugee camp. ┊in the year 308, she was recruited by lorelei luxford for the crookback pack and ever since has been garnering her beastism into an amalgamation of religious zealotry, power, the captured idea that with estel quote, “all is good”, and that with her, people will grow stronger. ┊she disdains the ithanian doctrines to this day for calling her qussrakon heritage “barbaric”, but continues to learn and respects most if not a lot of their aspects, using it as a facade similar to a hidden phantom.expansion. Spoiler: schooling. setting: beginning of spring. 297 ac - 300 ac. ┊when she was hired for first lady by the Jaquinots, she was able to learn theatrics and attend madame bette's performing arts school, and overtime learned to half-way enjoy it: her abilities learned here for three years were transferred into manipulation and getting what she had wanted. There are theories that if she was not scor, these skills would have been used to become a greater stage name than she already had been in the ports of ithania. ┊mantenette's roles in frequent plays were a brutal queen, the serpent in 'The Tale of Sir Eamon and the Serpent', the younger sister in the 'Tower of Rie' performed at pays-sud, and the mistress of the sky in 'The Conquest of the Sky' in bijoux-vert-plusse-reme's 289 debute. working as a first lady, it was hard for her to accomplish many of her future stage endeavours, and she saddeningly retired at the end of her thirtieth birthday. ┊mantenette never paid much attention in school: her natural charm and wit was hidden with layers of espionage and deceit, combatting those that graduated from praanistha's college of insight even. Her ability to twist emotions and convince others of her half-truth'd lies made her out to be a dangerous star, 'reine prouesse' having been a stolen name that is prominently used even now as a facade. after she had graduated from madame's, she moved on to vultaro around the age of 24 to participate in nicolo's dance academy. In these two schools, Mantenette was capable of creating multiple Scor socials similar to sororities and book clubs.

@Caelamus @Mollymock she is here. the other app (her old one) id ask to either be denied or I can delete it when im given the green! for future updates, her color will still be a nice shade of pink, but I made it less brighter.
@KrakenLord01 entire backstory overhaul with more suited timelines, better details, more closely aligned with qussrakon lore. this was the only major change and put emphasis on her faith of estel, removing priscelle unionism. provided a better "timeline" section for easy review, and did not mark it in a jarring pink to make it easier on the eyes! thanks for reviewing !!
Re-approved! As an extra note, please put each section of the Life Story in Spoilers, it's extremely long and having it split up makes things much easier to look over.
@KrakenLord01 whoops! apparently when I added the links, I forgot to ping for a quick re-approve. I split it up with spoilers for ease of the eyes as well. No other changes have been made besides this.
@KrakenLord01 Ritualism update changes: - Removed Ritualist abilities - Ritualistic background still applies, just influences what she has in turn of her current abilities - Gave her 3 linguistic science points (old Ritualist points) to begin learning Modern Altalar.
@KrakenLord01 Needing re-approve! Filled out what weapon she carries / which one is shelved too for the Metallurgy update with a licensed blacksmithy, and just added a beastmode image after getting art of it by @Barium_V9 !
4/29/2021 Entire overhaul update: Proficiency update - added ability list - added/changed proficiency - moved weaponry to appearance section (underneath form/body) - updated physical stat to 30/cap Life story - added schooling history - emphasized on her role in her job (first lady) @KrakenLord01
@KrakenLord01 | I'm going to be doing another massive aesthetic update on her bio: Something with the block text just doesn't stick and I'm gonna take the liberty to make it sway in light of tailoring and silkmaking, this may or may not come with a Proficiency update to better reflect what she wants to gear for (And in preparation for the Cahal update that has no set release date yet).
@KrakenLord01 | Update is done! Made it more canon/more fused to backstory, added proficiency changes, changed Lineage with permission, and overall took out a lot of unnecessary details/minimized most "expansions" to compile it into a simpler way to read + review. if there's anything you're unsure of, tag me below !! o7
@KrakenLord01 | Was granted permission to change her pathway: Burrowing of the Scorrico > Claws of the Mantis > Sting of the Wasp > Flutter of the Butterfly. She no longer has Arthro Spit, and I was granted permission to keep her form the same with the changes. One ability added in Afflictions section, 'Stingers for All'. Marked with the size 6 lavender bold excalamation mark. !
@KrakenLord01 | mantenette is no longer an enh. werebeast, points changed accordingly/distributed across skills, and form has not changed yet. Im currently not at home, but once again the changes are marked with a purple exclamation once im finished with them.
@KrakenLord01 | Finally got to updating her app: I know it's still marked as Approved, but I re-did her Ability section to reflect the Cahalism update and Scor bloodline, as well as removed her Half-Beast form. Added Dagger Combat, Removed Altalar Linguistics, Removed Fineweave Art, Subtracted from Theatre Art, Gifted her Racial Boost to Dagger Combat, Updated Phy Stat to cap/30, and Changed eye color to reflect Blood Eyes 6. its time i updated it to be consistent :weary emoji: Changes marked with ! or sometimes in bolded lavender.
