Author: 13 [ TDP ]
Subject: I'm a dummy. But I love this character so much.. she's actually my split-persona. Had her for a while now... not nearly as long as Kain, though.

Name- Project 13-18-57X, TC 4-20, 1.40.58... just call her 13.
Gender- Female
Age- ???
Description- She is a black S'karkaavan. Her wings are broad and often shrouding her body in enigmatic shadows. All four sails are like vast expanses of space without the heavenly bodies, just stark void, ruthlessly tattered and shorn. Her skin is a dark, dusty greyed hue, with armour of a charred black. She wears many layers of similarly coloured cloth, trenchcoat with broad lapels and scarf with baggy breeches and a vest. Many daggers line the belts of her coat, with bottles of Deity-knows-what and numerous clocks - all different - dangling alongside. Nothing ever drops or breaks, of course. Her right eye is a cool, emotionless steel shade, and sometimes the hands and numbers of a clock will show up around the slitted pupil, ticking quietly. The left is covered in a black patch, winding through her grey-dusted, black-streaked, fading brown hair, which is clamped back in a fraying braid to her waist. She's very gaunt, even for a black. And, for my own reference as well as any reader's, a list of completely mechanical parts, all crafted from some adamantine alloy - virtually unbreakable. Right arm. Right avian wing. Left and right hearts, each with an added chamber. Gut area - has no stomach, obtains needed fibres by absorbing electrical energy. So what if I'm battery powered... ! And half a brain. But her cybernetic parts have blended so thoroughly over the eternities, they rarely squabble any more. Of course, they also prevent her from regenerating fully hence entering a void or the vortex.
Personality- Quite generic for a S'karkaavan. But due to her past experiences, she has become paranoid as all bsta. This strangeness is often kept in check, but 13 will have spasms of it. She dislikes being near ephemerals, as she does not want to grow attached to anyone who will someday die. Other than that, she's quite the enigma.
History- To write the endless adventures of 13 would take an infinite amount of pages... so I won't even try. find out in roleplay. Such as whay she's damaged, how she became a cyborg, etc... fun things I've already RPed in a different group.
Species- Damaged S'karkaavan Cyborg

Height at Shoulder- When fully upright, anywhere from 7-10 feet. Whites are shortest and smallest, earths are a bit taller but bulky, flames are tall and toned, blacks are big in all proportions, but very gaunt and built to be the most agile, actually...
Coloration- It depends on the species. There are blacks, earths, flames, and whites. That helps an eshload, doesn't it? Well, blacks are varying shades of dark grey and black, sometimes a shadowy dust, as well. Earths can be any form of green, blue, or brown, and oftentimes with some grey mixed in. Flames are reds, oranges, yellows, etc., and whites are white or very pale colours. Often the skin will be one colour and the armour will be a darker shade of it, and the wings will be darkest of all, but not always.
Species Description- Somewhat humanoid in stature, but with much longer and leaner limbs and necks. They carry themselves in a hunched stature, spine curled forward and shoulders drawn in. This, as well as the fact they keep their legs completely bent in movement, makes them seem several feet shorter than they actually are. Plates of flexibly, bony armour span over the chest and stomach, down between the legs and covering the loins. Sex organs are all internal, as the S'karkaavan are mostly reptilian. Each leg is double-kneed, opposing each other for a massive range in leaping and taking off. The feet are immense and broad, dragonian in nature with three wicked toeclaws and a sort of thumbclaw on the inside of the foot. The shape of the claws will vary between the species. Whites will have thin, long, very-arched claws built for speed and traction, earths' will be short and stright, almost dulled, flame's will be sharp and medium-length, and blacks are like a white's but slightly thicker - and serrated. These parameters go for all a S'karkaavan's claws and features. The face is very humanoid, but three small, sharp horns curve off on either side of the head, and the ears are vast. Almost elvish, but longer and pointing stright back. The hair is coloured as the species goes, and the eyes are slitted and dragonian. Small, yet deadly, claws bedeck the tip of each finger. But what really sets a S'karkaavan aside from a human are the wings. Four of them, the upper two avian and the lower, bigger two dragonian. The membraneous pair will have an extra arm joint, which is lain along the back when gliding and extended for more length in full flight. These pinions will alter with the species. They do often wear clothes, but not always. Three three-chambered hearts are embedded in their chests,one where a human's heart would be, one in the centre and lower, and one on the right side. Each maintains its own bloodstream, each one a varying shade of grey. Their lungs are huge, and breath is drawn very slowly and deeply.
Species Temperment- They keep well to themselves and would do anything for the welfare of their race. Although it is not official, as very few beasts have heard of the S'karkaavan, they are well deserving of the title 'Guardians of Spacetime.' Meddling cretts are kicked firmly from creating massive paradoxes in which you do not want to know the end of. Very logical, shunning rash outbursts of any kind, especially emotional ones. And, since humans are the most often to poke into fourth dimensional affairs, the S'karkaavan have a tendancy to dislike them.
Home Planet- S'karkaavan come from the space-time vortex. Like energy, they are neither born nor die, being eternal creatures. When their current life is spent, they return from whence the came... an eternal cycle of time. But they have come to populate the world called Querevandere. Even though this planet has a future-shadow of an end.
