Name: Aura
Age: 33
Gender: Female
Weight: 150
Height:5’8”
Hair: Dark Brown/Black with purple highlights, Her bangs sweep to the right side of her face to hide the eye abnormality
Eyes: Left-Dark brown, Right-A lighter brown/hazel with a ring of green encircling the pupil (which have a round, cat-like appearance)
Personality: Aura is the quiet type, but helps out in her group when she can. She’s often seen in a tree, humming quietly to herself or a good distance away from the others. She is very self conscious, with an inferiority complex that tends to cause her great strain in terms of social situations. Despite this fact, she loves to spend time around others and does her best to make them feel comfortable as well. She wants nothing more in her life than to settle down and be a good mother and wife to whoever would honor her in such a way. However, because of her insecurities, it is difficult to approach men and express her emotions when with them.
Physical Description: Aura is an average height woman, with a “curvier” (Not pudgy, but not skinny) kind of frame. The curves fall more towards her bust and her waist, though she is told that is good for bearing children so she doesn’t mind. She often wears darker, baggier clothes that don’t flatter her figure. Her most common form of clothing consists of a sleeveless turtleneck, some kind of long coat, sweater or peacoat, dark, baggy pants with chains or straps, and heavy, yet quiet military-esque boots.
She has pale skin, with a rounder “moon-like” face. She has a tribal-like tattoo on the lower, right side of her back, just above the buttocks and that goes up to her shoulder. She wears jewelry often, particularly her signature thumb rings and choker necklace.
History: Aura grew up in Dublith. Her parents were doctors, with incredibly strict and narrow views. Aura was schooled at home, never going out unless for the occasional groceries, or a trek to the next town.
When she was 23, she remained with her parents, learning medical skills in hopes to carry on the family profession. However, her parents had decided that, in the interest of both medical studies and the military, Aura would be sent for experimentation for possible new medical technologies. There she met others who had suffered from said experiments, as they were all maimed or disfigured. She was suffered for years in the establishment, until the results ended in her becoming a chimera. She was a “cat”, and her skills were meant in order for stealth tactics in the military.
She wasn’t quite sure what had happened but the establishment had fallen to chaos, and she somehow ended up in the hands of a private sector of mercenaries. They had taught her to fight, though she had kept most of her skills in tending to their wounds. However, their leader had been killed in an unknown accident which caused power strains within the existing sector. It was eventually disbanded and Aura was forced to live a nomadic lifestyle.

--SAMPLE ROLEPLAY--
There was a chill against Aura’s skin as she sat quietly near the stream. The winter air froze her lungs as she huddled in her blanket, clutching to as much warmth as possible. She didn’t typically get this cold, but something seemed different to her. The atmosphere had changed in a way she couldn’t explain. It wasn’t this hard with her former group, but she knew that she would have to get used to the new adjustments. In reality, life wasn’t as bad as one would imagine—being able to adapt was what would get to people. But she wasn’t exactly normal, so she seemed grateful for her abnormalities in that sense.
Her eyes fell to the small fire she made a few hours before. It had been reduced to a mere simmer and glow-- not even enough to warm her hands. She knew it would be alright, though. After all, she had spent countless nights like this. It was her way of adjusting; it was her way of survival.
